Perfect location for seeing the turtles and close to the main square for restaurants. Facing the harbour it is the nicest hotel in Argostoli. The staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive. Our room was large, and the balcony had a sea view.

A very nice boutique hotel! The room was lovely and clean! The staff were very friendly and helpful. The location is hard to beat at you are right on the bay and in the heart of the town. Breakfast was a large buffet with a choice of ordering off a small menu and the restaurant at the hotel was very tasty for dinner as well. I would absolutely stay here again!

This is a great boutique hotel located on the waterfront. There are many restaurants in the vicinity and all within easy walking distance. Staff are very helpful and were very gracious in accommodating a late checkout for us. Breakfast is excellent and hotel offers indoor and patio dining. Special thanks to Olga and Iro at the front desk and Pavlos and Martina at the restaurant.

Hotel is on the waterfront. Easy strolling from there around Argostoli. Staff very helpful. Excellent breakfast. We had a water view which was worth the extra. The daytime restaurant / bar snack menu isn’t very Greek but there are other nearby options if that’s your thing.

Location was nice. Lobby was nice. Staff exceptionally kind and attentive. Rooms were tired and lower quality…needs refreshing. The seaside rooms were better. Best description of the rooms would be bohemian industrial. Could hear the shower and toilet flush from the neighboring room. I am sure they could hear ours also.

Great location within a few minutes walking distance from the main square with access to plenty of cafes, restaurants, bakery and shops. The hotel is average. Small room with very small bathroom without windows but it was cleaned every day. The breakfast was poor especially when considering a Greek hotel. No local products or fresh fruits and vegetables, no selection of savoury or sweet dishes. During Easter it would be good to offer traditional sweets to introduce a local flavour.

The property had a very nice lobby but the room was tiny, and the shower was so small that it was barely usable. The wifi did not make it up to the third floor, which is where our room was located. The entry door needed to be slammed to be shut, which our neighbors probably did not like. The AC was not strong enough to cool our small room, even overnight. The storage room to keep our bags an extra couple hours after checkout was not secure. I took them without being questioned, since there was no one at the front desk. Breakfast was great though. We will not stay there again.

Stayed there for a full week. The air conditioning in my room leaked on two separate occasions. The front desk did nothing to remedy the situation for the inconvenience it caused me to have to stay around to have their strange “handyman” “fix it”. His “fix” was to replace the bucket of water from the ceiling under the AC to a bigger bucket. I booked a king bed, they gave me a full. The bed itself was very uncomfortable so it was likely an old mattress. The bathrooms are cracking and smell of sewer. There is zero insulation so I could hear every person in the hallway walking and talking. Overall not by any means worth the price. The lobby and outside look new and grand but the rooms are all 2 star worthy. Also make sure you ask for receipts. They refer out to local companies (boat charters, taxis, tours) that also won’t give you receipts either. Even when asked, they make excuses as to why they can’t generate a receipt. I told the manager that I legally have the right to a receipt and she said she would eventually email it to me.
