In the medieval centre of Berat, steps from the castle, the Mangalem quarter and the Gorica Bridge over the Osum river.

The rooms

Master Hotel has six room types, from 20 to 25 m², sleeping two or three guests. They share the same core: air conditioning, a private bathroom, a balcony, parquet floors, a work desk, a flat-screen TV and mountain or city views.

What sets them apart is the outlook and the sleeping arrangement. The Deluxe Double rooms suit couples, with castle, city or balcony views, while the room for two adults and a child and the triple rooms add a sofa bed or an extra single bed to sleep three.

Is this the B&B for you?

Yes, if...

  • You want to explore Berat on foot: the castle, the Mangalem quarter and the Gorica Bridge are all a short walk away.
  • You care about location above all: guests rate it a near-perfect 9.9, the property's highest score.
  • You like breakfast sorted: a continental spread of local specialities, pastries, pancakes, cheese and fruit is served each morning.
  • You are a couple: every room is air-conditioned with a balcony, and couples rate the stay 9.9 for a two-person trip.
  • You are three, or a family with a child: several rooms add a sofa bed or an extra single bed to sleep up to three.

Perhaps not, if...

  • You want a full-service hotel: this is a small, family-run bed and breakfast rather than a large property with round-the-clock amenities.
  • You are arriving very late: check-in runs from 14:00 to 23:00, so let the family know your arrival time in advance.
  • You are flying in: the nearest airport, Vlora, is about 44 km away and Tirana around 118 km, so plan transfers ahead.
  • You are travelling as a large group: the house has six rooms sleeping up to three, so it suits couples and small families more than big parties.

Facilities and amenities

For a family-run bed and breakfast, Master Hotel covers the essentials well. Free WiFi reaches throughout, every room is air-conditioned and has a private bathroom with a bath or shower, hairdryer and free toiletries, and a continental breakfast is served each morning — one of the features guests mention most.

Rooms come with a flat-screen TV, a work desk, a wardrobe, parquet floors and a socket by the bed, and most open onto a balcony with mountain or city views.

Location and what to see

Getting there

Master Hotel sits in the medieval centre of Berat, in the Mangalem quarter below the castle, on Rruga Mihal Komnena. The old town is compact and best explored on foot, so you will rarely need transport once you arrive. The nearest airport is Vlora International, about 44 km away and roughly an hour and a half by car; Tirana International Mother Teresa Airport is around 118 km. The hotel can arrange a paid shuttle on request, so it is worth sharing your arrival details when you book. For those driving, free parking is available on site — a real convenience given the narrow lanes of the old quarters.

What to see

You are in the heart of old Berat, among the historic Mangalem and Gorica quarters. Berat Castle, the inhabited hilltop citadel, is just 300 metres away, and from the neighbourhood you can reach the Onufri Museum, the King Mosque, the Halveti Tekke, the Bachelor's Mosque and the churches of St Michael and St Spiridon, as well as the Ethnographic Museum. The Gorica Bridge links the two old quarters across the Osum river. For a day out in nature, Mount Tomorr National Park lies about 8.8 km away. Breakfast on the terrace looks out over the city and the castle — a fitting start before a day among Berat's Ottoman lanes.
