Here's the thing: I cannot recommend the Kalemi 2, but for a reason that is outside the hotel's direct control. You see, literally across the road is the Bukowski Bar, which blasts jazz and soft rock at 80 decibels directly at the hotel from evening time through to midnight. I don't know why the Bukowski Bar has to be so inconsiderate, but if you're in a room facing the bar, like I was, don't count on getting any sleep before midnight.

We had a great 1 night stay. Hotel is central to sights. First room was just as requested but neighbours chimney smoke began to blow into our room so we were changed to a lively 2 room suite thanks to Denis contacting the owner.

This property is hard to find. It is up an old old stone narrow road It is a real challenge to get to but when you find it you will be thrilled with its location and how beautiful it is.

Such a great stay at Hotel Kalemi 2. Staff was very accommodating. We had a room with a balcony where we could see the castle. The room was quaint and unique. The includes breakfast was great. Highly recommend!

Hotel Kalemi 2 is a very special hotel. Our suite was in a traditional style but with a very comfortable bed and a modern bathroom. The views from our room were spectacular. The staff was wonderful and the breakfast was delicious. We were able to park right outside the hotel entrance. A beautiful place to stay when you visit Gjirokaster!

Hotel Kalemi 2 was outstanding! The hotel and rooms are a benchmark for how these beautiful ottoman houses can be restored and maintained. But more importantly, the staff was what made this stay one of my best hotel experiences ever. They went out of their way to help us and enjoy our stay in town. I highly recommend Kalemi 2!

Absolutely beautiful, and the staff is first class. The views are incredible, and everything you need is right outside of your door. I truly hope we have an opportunity to visit again. Access is challenging because it is in the old town, but once you arrive, there is on site parking. Enjoy!
