Monemvasia hotels

Pros: The location of Hotel Kellia is perfect and there is excellent wayfinding signage as you navigate your way through the alleyways of Monemvasia. The unit was really well styled in an authentic Greek decor. We love the balcony overlooking the square and the breakfast offering was superb. Note that you can't access Monemvasia by car but can park on the hill before entering the village gate.

Cons: Typical of small Greek villages the local infrastructure meant there was a bad scent in the bathroom from the sewerage. May have just been the one day we visited, however.

Pros: Beautiful room, great location and nice breakfast!

Pros: The hotel had an excellent location at the furthest end of town in front of a small, quiet square and close to the water’s edge. It was away from the hustle and bustle and allowed us to enjoy a very peaceful break in Monemvasia. The room was clean and full of character. Breakfast was brilliant and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Definitely recommended!

Cons: Nothing

Pros: view from grounds outside room no.4 was amazing. Stella, who provided us with lovely freshly prepared breakfast daily was outstanding. Relaxed atmosphere where you could sit and read or people watch.

Cons: Room 4 was overlooking grounds of walled city. However, the window and door views were accessible to passers by. Limited space in actual room - suitable only for sleeping Please ensure that footwear is suitable for cobbled stones and irregular steps - some slippery throughout the inner castle area. Request an accurate guide to your hotel in order to avoid longer routes - large suitcases are not advisable, even although there are porters available at a cost.

Pros: Amazing location in Monemvasia Castle with spectacular views.

Pros: Everything from booking in to leaving was perfect. The location was amazing, the room was quirky, romantic with all up to date technology, it was so peaceful, breakfast was superb, never tasted cheese pies and cake like it, the custard pudding was delicious.

Cons: There was nothing to not like

Pros: Service, location and great value for money!

Cons: Bathrooms a bit small.....

Pros: The location was very good. Michael the manager was very helpful and friendly. We had a lovely room with a view. The staff are wonderful.

Pros: Location, comfort, style, breakfast and the staff. Amazing place.

Cons: Water pressure and the drainage odour but it’s not their fault. Quite normal in an old castle city.

Pros: The location was perfect..you feel all the castles's energy

Cons: There was a moldy smell in the bathroom when we arrived and mold spots on the shower cuertain, plus the front desk briefly "lost" my passport , and asked if I was even sure I gave it to them-- not very good confidence builder

Pros: Excellent location

Cons: More like a room than a hotel

Cons: The room smells bad

Pros: location, within the pedestrian medieval city of Monemvasia, tradittional building, nice atmosphere, everything nearby and cozy.

Cons: was requested to pay additionally the local tax, even on the site is stated that it is included

Pros: Incredible original building right within the castle settlement, incredible views, super comfortable room, very friendly and helpful staff. Would stay again! Highly recommended!

Pros: The whole experience

Cons: Nothing

Pros: A huge thank you to our host, who took care of us upon arrival. She and her mum recommended us some restaurants and activities around the area as we travelled to Monemvasia for the first time. The accommodation itself was great and reminded of a more natural, stone build in architecture. Our room was at the highest point of the lower town, which gave us a great view from the balcony to the sea. The room had basic equipment, but definitely enough. Bed was comfy and the room was very clean.

Cons: The shower drain was very slow, we almost flooded the bathroom when taking a shower for 2 minutes. But i guess it had to do with the pipeline on the island.

Pros: Wonderful place to stay. The owner and staff have a pure love and appreciation for Monemvasia and the beautiful building that makes the hotel as well. And that's clear from the moment they welcome you, with cool mint water and a map to show you recomendations of where to go , where to eat and what to see, in and out of the Castle . Located at Chrysafitissa Square , it's the perfect place to enjoy the night breeze and an enchanting view. It's a bit of a walk from the entrance to the castle , but an easy one in terms of elavation and complexity to find. We stayed at Ioustini room , which has a lovely private balcony with views to both the sea and the rock of Monemvasia. The room was cleaned daily , it was spacious and well ventilated. Highly recommended , looking forward to stay at Theophano Art Hotel again.

Pros: It’s not a hotel but a bed and breakfast and.......one of the most beautiful houses in Monemvasia. We stayed in the deluxe suite with balcony, with a wide view over the sea. Very quiet! All the tourists stay in the main street so, no worries about crowds of tourist passing by. Breakfast is prepared with love and together with classic music, you feel at ease.

Cons: Everything is very nice

Pros: It’s location although a bit of a walk was lovely. It had its own balcony which was nice to spend time on.

Cons: Stairs to room was a bit steep and a handrail would be a good idea.

Pros: We liked everything here. The owners are very nice and welcomed us with lemon water and gave us a map plus recommendations where to eat or what to do and see. The room was big and super cute! Even when we left they offered us coffee plus delicious cake! Love the art!

Pros: The owners of the place are really friendly, give you many valuable tips and make you feel at home - the city is beautiful and unique! Definitely a place to recommend

Pros: Beautiful settlement of the hotel, family owned. Amazing views of the sea.

Pros: Dimitris and his wife were absolutely lovely and genuine people. Very large rooms, huge wrap around balcony with uninterrupted views of the Castle in Monemvasia - almost too great to be true!. Excellent air conditioning!Very short drive to the main strip (2-3 minutes) and they were extremely accommodating!

Cons: There was a slight smell to the room upon entry however once the balcony doors opened or the air conditioning started it was fine!

Pros: Very nice and cute hotel with pleasent and friendly staff. Free parking. 2 air conditions in apartment. Cleanliness was excellent. Everyday was day for changing towels.

Cons: Nothing negative.

Pros: Beautiful and peacefull location. Very friendly hosts. Hotel facilities are top. Mr. Dimitri, thank you very much.

Pros: Everything was perfect.

Pros: Owner was very hospitable, facilities excellent. Well equipped studio apartment, close to the centre.

Cons: All good

Pros: Everything. Mr. Dimitri and his wife were very hospitable. The location was fantastic.

Pros: The hosts were very friendly.

Cons: Shower way too small Location way of the beach, had to take the car to go somewhere.

Pros: Very friendly staff, always giving useful information without even asking. The apartment was spotless. Peaceful neighborhood and still close to the centre.

Pros: . We stayed in the apt. with 2 bedrooms. very nice and clean. big balcony with a view of the sea. The owner welcomed us very warmly and is very nice. just a few minutes drive to MONEMVASIA old city and to restuarants. .

Pros: A very unique hotel for area placed directly at the sea and including a swimming pool. We had the pool area mostly for ourselves during the stay and it worked very well (parent and two teenagers, who liked to relax in a sunbed). In the little nearby harbour around the corner, you can take a swim in the sea. You have a 5 km/min drive to Monemvasia with shopping, restaurant and the old town, so the hotel provides an easy combination of the beautiful city and pool life. The staff is very friendly and the shared kitchen for the ten rooms is supplied with fresh oranges and eggs - that's almost haft the breakfast, but you have to prepare it yourself :-)

Cons: The shared kitchen is not that big, and it may quickly become a bit crowed if two families are preparing a meal and eat at the same time. Anyway, the shared kitchen gives an opportunity to prepare some meals at the hotel and save some money on the holiday budget for other activities.

Pros: Great swimming pool, great sea view, very comfy room and very friendly staff. Good price

Cons: No breakfast included

Pros: We liked everything. The hospitality and service was excellent

Cons: Every thing was great

Pros: everything was wonderful,cleanliness, kindness, position, beautiful room, clean pool, well-kept yard

Cons: I have no reason to complain

Pros: Comfy beds and nice view. You wake up from the sound of the waves.

Cons: A bit of noisy aircondition external units

Pros: Wonderful view of the sea, the Peloponnese coast and the Monemvasia peninsula.

Pros: Very clean and amazing sunrise seen from the bed!

Pros: Amazing view, very nice staff, cleaning service ans fresh eggs and orange to make juice!

Cons: Instable Internet and problematic toiletflushing

Pros: Everything was not just fine, but perfect. The hosts are super kind, the room spotlessly clean. We will definetly come back.

Pros: Everything was lovely, but the best of all were the owners. Friendly helpful people.

Pros: Outstanding room, balcony with a view of the sea, delicious breakfast. Staying inside the old city was the best experience.

Pros: Authentic and elegant hotel. Staff: friendly and professional.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Absolutely amaizing view, exceptional location, unbelievable ruality for the confort.

Pros: The location is wonderful, inside the castle, with great, quiet balconies and unique view to the sea. It's built like a traditional house in the castle and you really enjoy staying there. The room was quite clean while breakfast was moderate - not bad, not great.

Cons: (1) I feel that rooms are a bit smaller than they seem to be in the photos. (2) I also think that the service could be improved - maybe I would expect a warmer welcome on the reception and infos about the place, recommendations etc. (3) It seemed that the hotel was a bit understaffed (at least during this period of time): there was one lady responsible to cook breakfast, serve breakfast and clean all the tables in the same time and then she went straight to the cafe to serve clients. Overall, I believe that you're mostly paying for living inside the castle & the location. But service is not value for money.

Pros: Excellent all

Cons: The size of the room was a bit small But normal for castle room.

Pros: Monemvasia is one of the most magical places I have ever visited and the hotel was at the best location with an amazing view of the sea! The breakfast was rich... and we fell in love with "singlino" meat that was served every morning! Friendly and helpful staff!!!

Cons: Nothing really!

Pros: The hotel, the room, the castle, the view especially.

Cons: Nothing. The perfect holidays place.

Pros: Location and friendliness - nice rooms too.

Pros: The view

Cons: The small shower with the curtain.it

Pros: Amazing location. Top balcony in the whole town. Yes, it’s also furthest from the city gate, but let’s be honest. Malvasia is not a big town, so not that far. And a great bar with a mean mojito.

Cons: poor wi fi connection..signal was good in the balcony but poor inside. .But it's a big complex so i am assuming rooms closer to the rooter get better signal.

Pros: The only posite side was the kindness of Katerina

Cons: The manager was rude, when asking about changing room he did not propose a solution but complained about the choice of the room. Breakfast was poor : always same and recicled day after day. Shower of the room too tiny and uncomfortable. No map available! Last but not least, staff did not speak english at all..it was frustrating asking something and never be understood.

Pros: Wonderful staff, good breakfast. Comfortable room and large terrace.

Cons: Excellent hosts. Very polite and friendly. We were welcomed with a plate of cakes. Near monemvasia and elafonisos.

Pros: Nice and clean swimming pool. Super kind staff

Cons: —

Pros: Excellent hosts and also was the breakfast that could be eaten outdoor :). And in the homeland of olives (Greece) I got olives at the breakfast. Welldone!

Cons: Nothing. The only thing that could be improved was the weather: the wind was strong 7 days in a row :(

Pros: Great breakfast and very friendly staff.

Cons: During the first days of our stay the water in the swimming pool was not clean, last two days the pool was refreshed.

Pros: Lovely 3 day stay at this quiet, family run hotel. The location was perfect for day trips to Monemvasia, Elafanisos etc We were happy to discover a lovely beach only 5 minutes from the hotel. We particularly loved the breakfast, most of which was home / freshly made each morning - a delicious spread of food - in my own experience one of the best buffet breakfasts we have had and a great way to start the day. The swimming pool was lovely and big enough for everyone to enjoy. The hotel owners were very friendly and warm, greeting us whenever we met, and this made our stay extra special and memorable.

Cons: Wifi was patchy at best and pretty slow (though this could be due to the location of the hotel . Also possibly bandwidth issues i.e. sharing the Wifi connection with the other hotel guests). The bathroom facilities are probably in need of a refresh (especially the shower). The kitchen facilities also could do with a refurb and a few more utensils provided.

Pros: Great location. Great breakfast. Owners are friendly. Room comfortable. Plenty of parking.

Pros: Great breakfast, good beds.

Cons: Low pressure shower, main room of apartment a bit too small for 3 single beds.

Pros: I liked the hotel staff very helpful and polite, the breakfast and the location very close to Monemvasia castle. You could also order food to your room from very nice & cheap restaurants from Monemvasia.

Cons: There was a bad smell in the room from the air conditioner or the bathroom (couldn't understand from where precisely). The mattress of the bed too hard. We also found a male underwear behind the fridge from the previous customers!

Cons: Not much, some would say the location, but I enjoyed how peaceful and quiet it was.

Pros: The setting and the ambiance are beautiful

Cons: The bed is not comfortable and it is far from the castle of monemvasia. It is located in velies ,15 minutes by car.

Pros: The quiet. Rooms are in an olive grove where they also grow their herbs and vegetables. All are organically grown and used in the delicious meals cooked in the evenings by Daniela and Carmen. Staff are extremely helpful. The main building has the traditional olive crusher and press which is now a museum. They produce their own olives, make their own jams, marmalades, olive oil, vinegar, and all very delicious. Breakfasts are adequate and tasty but no cereals. All in all a good experience. Thank you to all.

Pros: The view and peacefull atmosphere.

Cons: Nothing to do - at all. Uncomfortable furniture. - You cant sit on the settee. It was rock hard and had a huge dip. No cups in the room - even though there was a kettle. Freezing cold breakfast room. No tour of the museum offered. No tour of the olive oil museum provided. No tour of the wineries, cooking etc provided or offered (as per their website)

Pros: Friendliness of staff and their rigorous efforts to meet every guest's request. Excellent restaurant, providing home made food, using top quality local fresh produce and prepared using good old local recipes. Excellent location, extreme peace and quiet, wonderful views, 6-7 miles by car to Monemvasia a must see place in Greece.

Pros: Good amenities (nice, big shower, clean bathroom of very comfortable size, powerful AC, mini fridge, pretty good bed). The location was really lovely. We loved the olive trees that surrounded the home, the old liotrivi house that hosted the restaurant , the staff. The restaurant on the premises was also very good. Do use it! We loved staying here because it was remote and away from the busy, touristy towns, that have motorcycles, lots of traffic etc. the location was good for accessing different beaches and villages near Velies, as well as Monemvasia of course...we would definitely stay here again...we also loved the story behind the house, a location that has hosted famous poet Yiannis Ritsos...

Cons: The owner should put a handle on the door...we stayed in the first house and it locks with a key, but it sure is hard to close and open s door just with a key...our only complaint!

Pros: Very quiet place. New, stylish and comfortable rooms. Nice and helpful staff. Very interesting restaurant.

Pros: The hostess Staroula (not sure of the proper spelling of her name) always went above and beyond. She was friendly, accommodating, knowledgeable and always helpful. She deserves ten stars. And she was very sweet and kind.

Cons: Don’t expect to watch tv as it didn’t work ( and so tiny) thankfully we didn’t need to watch it ! The view from the balcony enough to watch !!

Pros: The location is perfect. Restaurants opposite the street but quiet to sleep. You can find a parking right there. The host is just wonderful, so helpful.

Pros: Close to Monemvasia, about 25 minutes walk over the bridge to the main gate. Close to a great fish taverna. A basic room but we slept well, for the money in the area it was acceptable

Cons: Lack of attention to detail, no glasses in the room or bathroom (for water or teeth washing) no serviettes at breakfast.

Pros: Location is good as it is just by the sea. Staff was nice. It is cheap compared with the hotels of the area. For one night stay it is enough.

Cons: The bathroom is very old and not very well maintained. The water from the shower spilled everywhere getting the hole bathroom wet.

Pros: Great view excellent wifi range

Cons: Bathroom smell

Pros: Traditional Greek Hotel with lots of features and lots of charm and lots of very exotic views from the room with balcony. The bonus was the fridge that kept cold beverages during a hot day. Brilliant choice of breakfast. excellent host. worth a return visit. Comfy bed with extra pillows. Good working air con

Cons: All was great

Pros: Cozy and nice view.

Cons: Small bathroom not too good equipded.

Pros: Location was great & it was clean.

Cons: Room was small & the bathroom was tiny. Bed was firm but acceptable. The air conditioner drained in the bathroom which made the floor constantly wet as drainage was poor. There wasn’t a great selection or variety for breakfast.

Pros: Nice, clean quiet place with an amazing view of Monemvasia!! Parking was easy, you can walk to the castle easily and avoid all the parking madness on the island. If you are unable to wall far you can easily take the bus to the castle from the mainland. The owner greeted us graciously and was very welcoming. Also there is AC which is a plus!

Pros: The view is excellent, and the personals are the same. The breakfast was very good. I recommended.

Cons: Location was fantastic...just over the bridge to the old town.

Pros: Hotel near the harbor and its parking, and the bridge to go to Monemvassia city. 20 minutes walk is needed. The restaurant behind the hotel and with the same name makes fresh food and the owner Maria is a very nice lady.

Pros: The hotel is located right by the bridge to the Rock of Monemvasia. The staff were kind and helpful. Great value!!

Pros: The staff was very helpful and the location was exactly before the bridge of the castle. I think good choice for a weekend.

Cons: The only strange thing I found was the bed sheets and the towels were a material like plastic and old. Renovated hotel at very good condition.

Pros: clean and fuctional

Cons: very basic

Pros: The staff was very helpful and attentive, breakfast was basic but enough, the room was clean and tidy, the location was excellent, lots of options around / near for food and drinks.

Pros: Close to everything Great staff Cleanliness Great views from balcony.

Cons: Noisy inside the building. Breakfast not worth it

Pros: Location great but room old fashioned and difficult to get into and out of bed as against a stone wall. Staff not very friendly and we were glad didn’t book breakfast as very poor.

Cons: Bed shower staff

Pros: Really convenient location.

Cons: Probably wouldn’t recommend paying for the breakfast.

Cons: The room was quite nice and good size with balcony but it was a bit dated, mostly the bathroom , with a curtained shower and a general old style ( not in a good way)

Pros: The triple room. The castle view from the hotel. The onwer is very friendly and his knowledge on the area is very helpful.

Cons: I suggest in your site the fact that there are no bath toiletries except soap should be stated. A shower curtain would be advisable. Also although the breakfast is a complete one (cereals could be added) the cheese cut in such small pieces gives the impression that the buffet richness is limiting.

Pros: good location close to Monemvasia. Nice view of the rock

Cons: needs some sprucing up. Toilet paper should be flushable. Very basic breakfast

Pros: Hotel was very near to the center of Monemvasia. About 5 km.Beautiful view on the Rock. Nearby is a small beach. Breakfast is good. Nice owner.
