Hotel Fantasy - Gjirokaster

Updated: Jun 17

Hotel Fantasy - Three nights


This is the place you need to pinch yourself to know you are not dreaming. The view is truly spectacular. It is a beautiful luxury hotel that ticks all the boxes.

After dining there on our arrival to Gjirokaster and feeling the warmth from the staff during lunch, we knew we couldn't leave without enjoying a stay in this beautiful hotel. We changed our booking and booked into Hotel Fantasy for three nights, and were not disappointed.

From the restaurant and our rooms, we have truly remarkable views of Gjirokaster, the castle, and the mountain terrain.

We were fortunate to enjoy the suite for our first night. It was beautifully furnished with gorgeous artwork, and the bathtub/spa was an added bonus. You were also blessed with a peaceful sleep in heavenly beds.

The team, from reception to restaurant and bar to housekeeping, was always full of smiles; it was infectious. I give them gold stars for service.

The restaurant's food was mouthwatering, including an array of traditional Albanian food. There was also a great wine selection and great value.


The bar is opposite the restaurant, with a large outdoor seating area for breathtaking views. The cocktails were made with love, and we enjoyed working through them.

The breakfasts were fresh and varied, and there was excellent coffee. You could also order a la carte, which was a bonus for us who travel.

The bar was also buzzing with people and was social, a great place to meet new friends. We were lucky enough to meet some wonderful new friends, too. Our dear friends Miha and Elena.

We felt like family in the most magical hotel, Hotel Fantasy. The team was an absolute delight, and we are going to miss everyone.
