Kalamata hotellia

Plussat: The friendly and professional attyof the staff

Plussat: Very nice setting and ambiance, great rooms and outdoor/pool area, tasty breakfast.... but most of all an always smiling and helpful Georgina who made us feel at home from the very first moment after arrival. Huge thanks for everything. We will for sure return.

Plussat: An exceptional experience, and hotel staff who were helpful far beyond the call of duty. We had stayed in October 2018 so knew what to expect, and were not disappointed. Our stay of 12 days was spread over 4 bookings, and I have already provided a review, prompted by the first booking. this hotel is a haven, off the beaten tourist traps, but readily accessible to the beaches and tavernas and other attractions of the area, which I know well, having had a holiday house a few kilometres away. I would not want to stay anywhere else in the area.

Plussat: The location was tranquil, green and beautiful. Upon arrival, the owner took my suitcase and showed me my room. Very friendly staff (Giorgia), ample parking at the location, everything was really excellent! I will definitely come again. I have great memories about staying at Anaxo!

Miinukset: Nothing to dislike!

Plussat: Delightful location off the beaten track but easily acessible. Very friendly and helpful staff. Pleasant pool with poolside bar and snaçks. Comfortable bed and well equipped room. A real find.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Staying at Anaxo felt more like a stay with the best people in your own family. It was a luxury experience, incredible value, and the best service we have received anywhere in the world. No exaggeration.

Miinukset: Delicious home-made breakfast, poolside drinks, sunset view across to the sea. And the location near the best beaches, ports and small towns in the Mani. Ummmm.... What's not to like?!

Plussat: Very nice breakfast with an amazing view.

Plussat: Great food,clean rooms and great staff. Just great in everything

Miinukset: Nothing all was perfect

Plussat: Very confortable beds, spacious rooms, large balcony, wonderful décor, high quality materials & furniture. Very good breakfast and a magnificent view from the rooftop.

Plussat: i like rooms and decorations. balcony is very good. hotel destination is very good. The view is so good. So quiet place and there is so good relaxing place in Kalamata.

Miinukset: breakfast wasn't match the expectations i used to reach five star hotel. staff wasn't very well for me because they wasn't attentive.

Plussat: Rooms are quite big and nice. I visited this hotel during autumn, and even in the cold the view was good. And also location was very good.

Miinukset: To begin with breakfast, it was normal but not very good, it could be better. To continue with service , it was awful, reception guys were very good but around the area you could barely found any servant to help you. In conclusioni for me it is 3 star hotel , but if they improve service and breakfast it has a chance to become 4 star hotel!!

Plussat: Quiet. Total view to the sea. Very clean, and new or renovated. Complete breakfast with variety.

Plussat: Nice and clean rooms, spa

Miinukset: I was expecting better breakfast, it doesn’t match the high standard of the hotel. Another small suggestion- the water in the covered pool could be warmer.

Plussat: Very professional staff, location, clean.

Miinukset: All were perfect

Plussat: We used the free bikes and we explored the whole city. Also we had a free sauna/hamam session. The breakfast was really good. Totally worth it!

Plussat: We liked everything! We even extended our stay for one more night and again for one more night. Very good and quite location. Excellent facilities. Outstanding breakfasts! Very good service. We have enjoyed our stay very much. Definitely recommended!

Plussat: Facilities were great and the rooms were clean and spacious. We even got an upgrade as it was low season. The food at the restaurant was also v good esp the burger

Miinukset: All was good

Plussat: The hotel is really lovely, the rooms are comfortable and well sizes, staff were professional and attentive. We would go back :)

Miinukset: Nothing.. It was a great stay.

Plussat: Liked the room, the restaurant and breakfast

Miinukset: Swimming pool doesn't work out of season

Plussat: The whole team @ Horizon Blu never rest on their laurels. The outdoor wine & dine facilities have to be experienced by all.

Miinukset: Luv to have a pool bar one day

Plussat: The breakfast was ok, not something great but enough choices. The area is great, there is good parking, a basketball court, a playground, tennis court etc so it was fun for our family. The cleaners were very good and polite.

Miinukset: The whole building could do with a light renovation. Some furniture, beds and mattresses as well as flooring have been worn out and need replacing as well as walls and ceilings at some spots need painting.

Plussat: As always a fantastic stay, great staff, great breakfast and great facilities.

Plussat: Location.

Miinukset: The hair dryer is too powerless, it took ages to dry my short hair.

Plussat: Only cross the street to hit the beach. Nice pool. Rooms are bright and clean. Large breakfast buffet. Will need a car to go into Kalamata Centre or jump on bus.

Miinukset: Not what you are looking for if wanted a quiet time. Every night some kind of entertainment / weddings etc. until 2am. Bring your ear plugs!

Plussat: Perfect location for us - quiet. Staff very helpful and obliging. There was nothing to dislike. Obviously we were there at the end of the season so not all facilities were available but we were very happy with our stay and the way we were looked after.

Plussat: The location is excellent, just a few steps away from the beach. They also offer great breakfast options.

Miinukset: Not as luxurious as I thought it would be for the price. The rooms were a bit dated.

Plussat: Breakfast , sea view , balcony , bed, cleaning

Miinukset: The bathroom design , no curtain .

Plussat: Incredible view of the sea from the room balcony, from the swimming pool and the bar terrace. Staff really nice. Very good position, 8-10 min by car from many beaches (transparent waters!) and from Kalamata city

Miinukset: Privacy in the room balcony could be better and showers need modernising. But this did not make our stay less special

Plussat: Breakfast, location but one needs car.

Miinukset: Unexpected noise from a wedding reception.

Plussat: Lovely hotel. location would not be suited best to those without a car or those not happy constantly taking taxis otherwise what’s not to like !

Miinukset: Location a little out on a limb

Plussat: Very comfortable bed Amazing view from the room balcony Friendly and helpful staff at the reception

Miinukset: Breakfast was too small with not very fresh food The pool was full with people who were not residents of the hotel At the pool bar we got charged for two bottles of water that we didn't order

Plussat: View of fantastic hotel very nice, many pools, many rooms, very good service. i will come again

Miinukset: the distance from the sea

Plussat: Probably the best view over the bay of Kalamata! Spectacularly nestled on the eastern mountain range, in a very quiet neighbourhood. Roosters and distant dog bark...A few minutes by car from the center. The hotel is tastefully decorated, large rooms with high ceilings and large balconies. The pool is at restaurant level and changes colour..The restaurant serves excellent food, typically Greek size portions...Very happy with the staff, most helpful and friendly. All in all a lovely experience!

Miinukset: Nothing at all.

Plussat: We have already done a review for our first stay. Very good breakfast, plenty of it.

Miinukset: Nothing. All good from start to finish.

Plussat: - nice breakfast - friendly and caring staff - great location (several tavernas, beach, bus stop) - spacious room - comfy bed

Miinukset: - cleaner aren't working fine - the room could be cleaned better - the air conditioner could be cleaned more frequently (we saw dust in both inn our room, downstairs and upstairs)

Miinukset: Staff were very polite and helpful

Plussat: Perfect location, on the sea front, very close to Kalamata city center and to the motorway. Comfortable, spacious, clean room, ideal for families traveling with children. Parking on the site. Very friendly staff.

Plussat: The hotel was well taken care of and the staff (especially Mixali) was extra caring. We loved the pool area and enjoyed freshly squeezed orange juice there. A very pleasant stay. We’ll definitely go again.

Miinukset: The Wi-Fi was very weak in our room, perhaps because it was near the back of the hotel.

Plussat: Hotel opposite beach. Only 20mins from kalamata by car. 1hr to stoupa by car. Taverners in village good. Very relaxing not many English tourist mainly Greek. Hotel excellent nice pool staff amazing nothing to much trouble. Towels provided by hotel for beach

Miinukset: Not a lot at nite. Need a car if you want to explore as only few taveners. Pebble beach.nearest supermarket 20mins walk or 5mins by car

Plussat: Copious amounts of food, and delicious yogurt for breakfast, plus tea, coffee and orange juice. We loved the spinach pie! Nice, large shower cubicle in our room, and spacious, comfortable bed. And there was a cafe on the beach belonging to the hotel where we could sunbathe and relax in sun or shade.

Miinukset: Nothing to criticise, everything was fine. Do not expect a sandy beach, though. It's stony, and you need beach shoes to walk in comfort on it. Lovely clear sea, warm in October, once you get in.

Plussat: Nice pool area, good breakfast, beautiful resort area with private beach accross the road

Miinukset: Small shower corner

Plussat: nice room, good pool, very good sunset bar

Miinukset: nothing

Plussat: Very good breakfast, full of everything. Nice room, most comforts were in. Overall good. Helpful and friendly staff.

Miinukset: (a) we were told during check-in that we have been upgraded to room with sea view. Nice surprise but when we went in the room, the sea could be seen only when looking sideways, so not truly a sea-view room. They raised expectations that didn't meet for no reason at all. (b) Also there were 2 very silly steps in the room so you had to go up two steps to go to and from the bathroom - again for no reason at all. Finally I saw no reason to be asked to complete a page full of personal data like e.g. my birthday, for checking in, totally useless.

Plussat: This place was a real surprise, get location outside of the City but worth the drive to get to this excellent resort. Its relativley new and the amenities are fantastic.

Miinukset: I think that maybe some of the staff could have been friendly and more helpful given its such a luxury resort. Chris was excellent! They should invest in some new hair dryers !

Plussat: Extremely nice personell. Very nice pool and a good restaurant. The breakfast was great and everything was good! Very reasonable priced!

Miinukset: Without a rental car it is quite off the rest of kalamata (we have small kids). There is a good bus connection though!

Plussat: Very nice hotel, super clean and great staff!

Miinukset: Nothing!

Plussat: Exceptional view, clean and nice room, close to the beach, groceries and cafes

Miinukset: Every thing was exellent

Plussat: The staff was friendly and attentive.

Miinukset: The eggs and sausages at breakfast were always cold.

Plussat: Loved the staff who were very helpful. The location was outstanding.

Miinukset: Thought the room could have been cleaner but it was still fine.

Plussat: Staff are really polite and welcoming. Location and view (sea view room).

Miinukset: Parking is free on the street. No parking offered by the property. That should be clarified in the property‘s description but is not.

Plussat: Näköala oikein hyvä. Rento ja siisti hotelli. erittäin hyvä sijainti rannalla ja mukava kävelymatka keskustaan. Vaate- ja muita liikkeitä lähettyvillä runsaasti..

Miinukset: Aamiainen huono. Mehut ja kahvi ala-arvoisia...yksi juusto- ja leikkelelajike (sama joka päivä). Kananmunat keitetty edellisenä iltana ja lämmittämisen jälkeen mustuneet (minulle merkittävä asia). Ei jogurttia..samat kaksi leipälajiketta aina... Likaisten astioiden poiskorjaaminen alkeellista...helpompi kun teki asian itse ja pyyhki vielä pöydän myös itse.. Uskomatonta, huoneissa verhot, tuolinpääliset ja taulut samasta ankean punertavanruskeasta vanhanaikaisesta kankaasta...

Plussat: As backpackers this accommodation was pretty luxurious! Great room with beach location /facilities. Good breakfast and bus stop outside the hotel. Staff very pleasant and most helpful. October prices are probably cheaper, however, value for money was excellent! After two weeks touring/island hopping, we returned for two nights R&R before flying home.

Miinukset: N/A - expectations fully met.

Plussat: Kaikki

Miinukset: Pieni televisio

Plussat: Hotelli erinomaisella paikalla rannan läheisyydessä ja bussilinja keskustaan kulki aivan hotellin edestä. Huone ja aamiainen olivat ihan OK. Huoneessa iso parveke merelle päin, joten hyvät näköalat. Henkilökunta ystävällistä ja tulivat tervehtimaan johtajaa myöten.

Miinukset: Ravintolatoiminta ei ollut kovin aktiivista ilmeisesti sesongin loppupuolella.

Plussat: Location and setting.also friendly staff

Plussat: Lots of varieties and choices for breakfast! Public bus service in front of hotel, very convenient for excursions.

Plussat: Staff was very helpful and pleasant.

Miinukset: We had a premium room. The air conditioning machine could not be adjusted and was blowing cold air straight on our heads when lying on the bed. There were no toiletries in the bathroom. We had asked for a quiet room and staff did their best but the room was very noisy, with the car park at the back and the noise of the swimming pool at the front (shrieking children all day). The breakfast was very abundant but of very poor quality. This hotel is terrible value for money. If it was 100€ that would be about OK, not 200€!

Plussat: Price was right. Hotel was perfect except for the menu at the pool restaurant. They need better and more native food options.

Plussat: Lovely pool area

Miinukset: Beach very stony.

Plussat: Filoxenia is a conveniently located, baby friendly hotel right on the beach, with spacious grounds. A buffet is available both at lunch and dinner and offers a large variety, with the food quality being quite good, although a bit pricey. There is a local bus connecting the hotel to the center of Kalamata.

Miinukset: The mattresses were not very comfortable, as one could feel every slight motion the other person made. Also, there was a large space between the door and the floor, which allowed light and sound to enter from the corridor.

Plussat: Tasteful hotel with a fantastic garden. The location is the best you can find in Kalamata: at the end of the city's very long beach, away from the noise of the city (night-clubs and cars/motorbikes which can be an issue in other hotels) but not far for the city (a few minutes by car/bus and a nice walk if you like it).

Plussat: Best location in Kalamata, very friendly and helpful staff, lovely room

Miinukset: The beds were really hard.

Plussat: Outside areas were beautiful, views and location fantastic. Pool and beach fantastic

Miinukset: Just a little run down. Stair cases were marble, floors of hall ways plastic flooring material, broken and generally in need of a make over, hall windows and walls dirty and also in need of a general make over. . Bathroom of the suite spacious and with Jacuzzi, yet moldy at connection with wall

Plussat: Stuff is excellent. Property territories is very good. Breakfast is very good. Sea is excellent, but a lot of stones...

Miinukset: A little bit noisy in the night, because car.

Plussat: A little far from kalamata and few transport options but a beautiful hotel

Miinukset: The restaurant/ bar had strange hours so not always convenient if you wanted to eat or grab a drink

Plussat: Breakfast was wonderful a great variety foods . Very good

Miinukset: The room view was amazing . Great location to everything

Plussat: What a perfect place to stay and relax! A private beach is everything you can wish for. The room was clean and comfortable. Moreover, the breakfast was really good and everyone can find something for themselves. The staff is very helpful.

Miinukset: Nothing to say here as I liked literally everything about this place :)

Plussat: Amazing view, private beach, very friendly staff

Miinukset: Small bed, hard mattress

Plussat: The location and design of the hotel is excellent and every room has the most beautiful view. The private pebbly beach was a real bonus; it was immaculately clean, there were plenty of sunbeds and umbrellas and the water was beautiful. The communal areas were all very stylish and there were lots of different places to sit and relax.

Plussat: The views of the bay were amazing. Loved the hidden pebble beach downstairs.

Plussat: Awesome pool and private pebble beach! Such a surprise! They don’t push this as the huge bonus it is. Also has pool and beach service. Room very nice, magnificent view from good balcony, clean and very comfortable bed.

Miinukset: Distance from Kalamata town, but facilities and the great water quality outweigh that!

Plussat: Entrance lobby was worthy of a 4-star hotel, bed comfortable. Location, although noisy (see above) had great views across the bay and there were lots of restaurants serving good food right by the sea opposite the hotel.

Miinukset: Location was very noisy - particularly in the evening and up to one or two in the morning when the local "yoof" were out on their motorbikes with their silencers unsilenced or their cars with music at full volume. Not the hotel's fault obviously, but ruined the quiet drink on the balcony. We travelled near the end of the season and the room, although not dirty, was ready for a deep clean. Breakfast was adequate, coffee lousy. Extremely loud and discordant church bells almost next door!

Plussat: Great room bigger than expected. Oceanview perfect

Miinukset: Right next to church. Although pretty the church rings it’s bells quite loudly. Room is not very sound proof so even with doors closed could still hear the card from the 4th floor. Breakfast was average.

Plussat: Location excellent, had a balcony room with a view facing the ocean. Breakfast was ok. .

Miinukset: Coffee could have been better. Eggs were not fresh.

Plussat: Staff were great Location excellent

Miinukset: Room size - small for single person but great balcony with exceptional views of bay and hills

Plussat: Its closeness to the airport & the price. If we had required a view no doubt we could have upgraded to a better room, at a higher cost.

Miinukset: The pillows were hard & lumpy,but we are used to having the choice of feather pillows at accommodation. The room was basic & utilitarian but we only stayed for 1 night to be close to Kalamata airport. For the money it was acceptable, but we would not choose this hotel for a long stay, although those wishing to stay in Kalamata would find its location close to the beach & very convenient for tavernas. The breakfast was noisy due to a large coach party of Greek pensioners dominating the breakfast area. We had to sit upstairs which was not very convenient for the buffet, but it had a beautiful view & was quiet!

Plussat: Across street from beach, basic rooms but very clean. Breakfast was good.

Miinukset: Parking is difficult generally in the area , not fault of hotel, generally kalamata is very crowded in summer

Plussat: Position, comfortable , balcony etc

Miinukset: Had a great stay there, no problems at all. Great position, value for money!

Plussat: Location, confortable beds,good AC, on the beach The owner is helpful is you ask for tips in the city.

Miinukset: Overall the rooms could be cleaner Sometimes hard to explain things since staff speaks Basic English.

Plussat: Very grubby, but people nice

Miinukset: Cleanliness and decor

Plussat: Location on the beach

Miinukset: Floor was dirty

Plussat: It was ok

Miinukset: It was old hotel.
