Hotel Çajupi stands on Sheshi Çerçiz Topulli square at the entrance of the Bazar (Qafa e pazarit). It is the largest hotel in Gjirokastra as it was under Enver Oxha regime, the state hotel. On our passage in 2007, it was closed and looked more or less dilapidated. In 2009, it had been entirely renewed and from outside (we did not visit the inside) looked very nice and modern. It has 30 rooms.
It is named after the pen name of poet Andon C. Çako (1866-1930), who was born in a village near Gjirokastra. He settled in Egypt where he became a successful layer. He is best known for its translation from French of La Fontaine’s Fables.
