Beautiful views and night life around the city. The staff are extremely accommodating and helpful (we got lost and the staff helped with directions to the hotel). Definitely worth stopping and staying a night or two if youre in the area. I would go out of my way to stay here again if travelling to Albania.

The hotel has very historical feeling decoration. The room is clean and with nice castle view. The staff is helpful and friendly. The breakfast is nice. The only downside is that at night, our room on the 3rd floor was a bit cold. It would be no problem for warmer days.

Great location and one of the nicest hotels we stayed at in Albania! Room was spacious and bathroom finishings were all new. Slight disappointment that they don't turn the espresso machine on until after breakfast (pretty bad coffee), but the breakfast itself makes up for this shortcoming.

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!

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.
