Flamur and his wife (I do not know how to write her name ;-)) are the loveliest people!! They are super welcoming and make you feel like family. They gave us a super tasty welcome drink and let us try some fruit from their garden. They also provided (at extra cost) a SUPER tasty breakfast. They were very helpful. The room was clean and comfortable. The view from the patio is AMAZING!! The view and the people is what make this a perfect holiday place! The guesthouse is located on a short walking distance from the castle and a short walking distance to Berat. For people that have difficulties walking, this place is not so suitable, because you have to walk up a steep hill every time you want to go out. We loved it, because it was a great work out, but keep this in mind if you have mobility issues. The guesthouse has a free parking spot, which is great. However, you need to feel comfortable driving as you have to drive your car up and down the steep hill. For my husband this was not an issue, but I would not have felt comfortable doing this myself. We would 100% recommend this place in Berat and are truly hoping that we can go back one day to see Flamur and his lovely wife again!

Stunning location on a hill overlooking Berat. Few steps from the castle, 10 minutes walk to the promenade, yet in a peaceful and quiet spot. The owner is an absolute gem. Super nice, cheerful and helpful, everything was "no problem" The room was nice, yet a bit tired with all the door handles creaking. Beds were too soft for my liking, but I do have a thing for a hard mattress. Nice breakfast on a terrace with a lovely view on the town was definitely a great way to start a day. We found it a bit difficult to get there late in the evening with no internet access, as sign posts to accommodation are not allowed in Berat. Perhaps the map I have uploaded would be helpful. After leaving the paved road the last section to the guesthouse may seem a bit steep, but is really ... no problem :)

Very steep descent to the house, not every car will be able to climb up

The most friendly host ever! A little bit English, Albanian and Italian and more smiles and kindness;) Host at the top of the mountain and it's hard... But near the castle ☺️ Breakfast is delicious and large with local food. Thank you from Estonia!

The Guesthouse has a great location with excellent view of Berat and the surrounding mountains. The owners are extremely friendly, helpful and chatty. The breakfast is delicious with fruits from the garden. It is a bit tricky to find and approach the house with car, but manageable. Emiljo’s Guesthouse is a great choice when you stay in Berat.

location superb, very close to the castle and 10 minutes walking from mangalem. The room is simple but new and clean, nice shower and veranda. The staff is superb; they are a beautiful family, kind, very charmful, they helped us in all the problems or request, you feel like you are part of the family. The grandfather is the best, we loved him!

Fantastic hosts. Very warm, friendly & always wanting to help. Clean. We were provided with heater as it was quite cold. Good wifi. Nice vegetarian breakfast with bread, fig jam, fruits, cheese & tomato/cucumber. Very close to old town and right next to castle. Walk up from old town is a steep 300m or so walk. Driveway is very steep but our small car managed it fine. No problems if you are a decent enough driver. Kippis!

Flamur and his wife are the best host ever. They did not speak much english but it did not prevent them from sharing and communicate with us. We spent a great evening with them, having some homemade raki and nice mandarins they picked straight from the tree for us. The view is absolutely stunning, the free parking and private bathroom were a plus. The bed was comfortable and the place was very clean and quiet. We had a lovely breakfast with fresh products and homemade plum jam. We had the chance to meet the sweet girl (10 yo) leaving next door who spoke good english and helped with translation when needed. They made us feel like home and we regret we could not stay longer. Thank you so much !!

Room - clean, spacious and convenient! Views are great! Location is the best! Grade - 11 of 10 )

It's hard to put into words our stay with Flamur and family. They waited out on their balcony for us to arrive to show us the drive down to the house which is steep! Flamur came up to check the car was fine. Our two year old immediately took to them and their warm welcome. They took Albanian hospitality to the next level giving us recommendations of places to see and eat. In the evening we came back and they made us local 'mountain' tea with lemon from their garden. Delicious. This turned into a raki and evening chat on their balcony. Breakfast was all products from their family's and their own farms. Feta, tomatoes, cucumber, pomegranate and delicious damson jam. It was served on the balcony which overlooks Berat. Probably the best hosts we've ever had and that's saying something. We will never forget them and their hospitality! Faleminderit. Thank you!
