Rupa Guest House

Stunning homestay in the heart of theth — the hosts were wonderful and the food was majestic! Thanks so much for a delightful stay!

Very sweet and helpful hosts, who made us a very yummy and filling breakfast before our hike. Dinner was also exceptional. As a budget option I really enjoyed our private room for 2. Great view from the window!

Lovely guest house building, spacious well-maintained lawn, very friendly host. Albanian dinner at €12 was delicious and generous, in their dining room with other guests, it felt like a family dinner. Unfortunately during my stay the electricity was intermittent from late afternoon until morning. My phone didn't fully charge and there wasn't hot water when I showered — I ended up showering in cold water 🥶 without light, relying on faint twilight through a small ventilation window.

Brilliant place to camp! The location is amazing and the outdoor seating areas are beautiful and rustic. Shower facilities for campers are in the little house where the staff live, but they don't seem inconvenienced by this and the shower was hot. The food was absolutely delicious — both dinner and breakfast, and it was really nice to eat outside with fellow travellers.

Good place. We didn’t have any drama with the owner, but eared she was not easy. Our room was triple with a privet bathroom 🙌🏻.
The drain from the bathroom needs to fix, after shower the quantity of water was too much.
But the food was amazing, the location too.
Ps: be careful with the animals “venomous animals “

A great location and a beautiful guest house! However I felt morally obligated to post a review informing people about the way the bed bug situation was handled. I understand that bed bugs can be brought in from travellers anywhere and therefore is not a cleanliness issue.
We told the owners and they were gracious in not making us pay for a third night, however we were asked to cancel our booking meaning that we could not leave a review on booking. Com. They also assigned other travellers to our beds even before we had checked out.
There was also a review a few weeks ago about the issue and it seems they had the same situation, so it seems as if the bed bugs are not being addressed.
Otherwise the place is beautiful and the food was delicious. The family running the place is really lovely.

Pal Rupa was my first Guesthouse during my Peaks of Balkans (PoB). The host were incredibly kind and I had a room for myself with own bathroom. The dinner & breakfast was both delicious and the location was perfect since it was not directly in the center, but still close enough to the next stage of the PoB.

We booked the 8 bed mixed dorm but when we arrived were placed in a two bed small container box, separate to the main property and not what the pictures or description were. We slept in there for one night as did not want to make a fuss, but only one of the single beds had a usable mattress (the other was two thin loungers placed on top of eachother with a sheet and sunken in the middle), lots of bugs in our beds and the walls, floor to ceiling windows with no curtains so campers walked past peering in with torches at night. This wasn't worth the 18 euros a night. We requested to move into the actual house as we had booked for our second night, which we were reluctantly granted. Once here, our stay was much better and the room was lovely. Whilst we were told no one had ever raised issues with this room before, the next night two other girls were requesting to move rooms as well. (first room is pictured in the container box, second room pictured is wooden).
Roza was nice, one of her daughters who also worked there was incredibly rude. When we kindly/nervously requested to move rooms, Roza was not there so we spoke to the daughter who refused to answer at first and ignored us. She repeatedly rolled her eyes and kissed her teeth continuously whilst I spoke on the phone to Roza, kindly asking about our room request to be placed where we had actually booked. This daughter was similarly rude to other guests, as we experienced on multiple occasions.

It's a great place to stay in if you're just traveling.
But if it's more of vacation were you just want to chill and and stuff I wouldn't recommend this place.
Also it's better to come here in the winter as there's no air conditioner.

Stayed for a Night here. The guesthouse is the the cutest and Most beautiful one of the ones in theth. It stayed true to Its history and charm and you can Feel a Bit of the old theth there, before mass tourism Took over. The owners Are lovely and they have a super Tasty wine! If I would Go to theth, I would only stay there :)

We had a wonderful stay here! the owner is very nice abd helpful. The place is very clean and quiet.

I had the best time in this guesthouse and feel very lucky that I found it. You can sleep in a dormitory, a private room or you can stay around the house at the camping site. I highly recommend you eat diner and breakfast here. The food is amazing and so is the experience. The lady is like your favorite grandmother and she is also the cook. She is so nice and everybody of the guesthouse welcomes you with open arms. It has an amazing view and I met a lot of other travelers here. I hope to return next year 🙏🥰💃

I came for 1 or 2 nights and stayed camping for 3 as the location was so peaceful and the family so friendly with delicious food.
The host, Valbonë, was very helpful and her mother cooks delicious food.
I would happily come back here again.

I camped on the meadow of the house with my VW and I payed 10€ per night. The host was very friendly! Toilet and hot shower have been very clean. You have the opportunity to eat freshly cooked breakfast or dinner. I booked the breakfast for 6€ and it was very good. Dogs welcome. All in all perfect :)

Hi Pal Rupa family,
We only join for the dinner on Wednesday night. It was great, the host cooking from love ❤️. We met Dutch couple very friendly to sharing the reki. And we had very good time together. Food is really delicious, and great company.
PS: buddies hope you not mind I am sharing here. I hope you have the copy too. In case you don’t like please let me know I will remove 🥰❤️

We loved our stay at Rupa’s guesthouse. On arrival we were greeted with the best pancakes we have ever tasted with hot coffee and tea. Our room was clean, tidy and cosy — like a ski lodge! On return from a wet and cold walk to the blue eye, we had a warm fire to sit and dry our clothes by. The host was a brilliant cook and we had an abundance of food from homemade bread, cheese, aubergines, salad, and whipped feta peppers with a dessert of wonderful fresh pomegranate, grapes and chestnuts.
For breakfast we had a spread of fresh fruit, salad, bread, cheese, homemade jams and an omelette. The host felt like our real grandma — it was a home away from home :) would 100% recommend for a relaxed and authentic experience. Xx.

Super bad service, we called and arranged a reservation for a room for one night. After a a very long walk we get to the guesthouse only to learn the the rooms was given to someone else and the lady who took our reservation couldn't even bother to call back and let us know the she cancelled our reservation leaving us to walk around the village and pay a very high price in another hotel because everything else was booked out.
