Monemvasia hotellia

Plussat: We loved our stay at Elea Marie, the staff, the rooms and the location are absolutely perfect. We will be back to stay. 100% recommend.

Plussat: We felt very comfortable and enjoyed the cosy atmosphere in the little bay. The breakfast is delicious with regional products. The owner and his team are very kind and helpful. Thumbs up

Plussat: It is a lovely quiet location immediately on the sea. There is a good beach three minutes walk along the coast. Restaurants are 10-15 minutes walk (or a two minute drive) Views are across the Lakonikos Kolpos to Githeo and south. A wonderful seaside holiday location.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Everything was lovely. Panorama and amazing location. Great breakfast and very enthusiastic and efficient owner.

Miinukset: Nothing. I would just suggest to improve the wood separation between balconies.

Plussat: The owner and his family are involved everyday of your visit. They ensure a positive and beyond comfortable experience. The terroire is still unspoiled. Swimming is fun and great snorkeling too. We will be back again next year. it's like a second home.X

Miinukset: NA

Plussat: Excellent accommodation , great scenic views from the balcony , clean rooms , excellent service and staff , breakfast and help desk , they have an artistic touch with an art gallery next to the reception , we were offered a nice small virgin oil bottle as a souvenir , produced in the region . recommended A++

Miinukset: for a superior seafront studio , furniture needs bit of upgrade , air conditioning as well ( Manuel control) and amenities are basic but good enough .

Plussat: Huone isolla ikkunalla aivan meren ääressä. Pieni rauhallinen hiekkaranta vieressä. Aamiaisella herkullisia paikallisia tuotteita mm. puristettua appelsiinimehua. Ystävällinen palvelu ja wifi toimi hyvin. Hyvä sänky ja siivous. Paikallinen kylä kävelymatkan päässä. Kylän aukiolla toisessa tavernassa oli maukas päivän kreikkalainen ruoka. Ajomatka Ateenasta kohteeseen kannatti paljon nähtävyyksiä lähistöllä mm. Monemvasia ja Elafonisosin saari. Kesäkuussa juhannusviikolla ei ruuhkaa.

Plussat: Awesome staff, view, clean rooms and well kept grounds

Miinukset: Wish it had a pool

Plussat: Wonderful host

Miinukset: Not ,long enough stay

Plussat: nice pool and easy access to the sea lovely view food was ok - bit over faced by breakfast

Plussat: Great location very friendly staff.

Plussat: We loved the family who owned the Annema Hotel. Nicco spent a lot of time telling us the history of the area - from Odysseus, to WW2 and the present day. This gave us a real sense of context for the place, the people and for our visit to the rock of Monemvasia (which we could see from our room). We liked the peace and quiet, the view - the feeling of serenity. That we were able to eat there. Swim in the sea and in a pool (which had a great shower).

Miinukset: No hooks for towels etc in shower by pool.

Plussat: I loved everything about this hotel. But in particular i wanna make a special mention for the great kindness and professionalism of the whole staff that greatly helped is with a situation we were having. Great place. Highly recommended.

Miinukset: There was nothing i didn't like about this place.

Plussat: Wonderful and very quiet position on the sea with beautiful garden and pool. Staff very kind and very good food at the restaurant. Close to amazing beaches and cultural and historical sites. A paradise

Plussat: Great Location, Great People, Great Restaurant

Plussat: Spectacular views from the balcony of beautiful Monemvasia, soothing sounds of the waves with beach just a few steps away. Very clean and comfortable room. Excellent location just right next to causeway to Monemvasia and square for buses for onward travel, Breakfast was delicious and staff were very kind and helpful.

Plussat: All facilities were to our disposal: kettle, fridge, tea sets. The room has sea view and a spacious terrace. The hotel is located at the seaside with many taverns within the walking distance.parking is easy.Very nice staff who gave a lot of information about the region.Breakfast was a great value at €6.I'd liked the hotel have a lift .

Miinukset: nothing

Plussat: The staff. Katerina was the politest and helping girl I have ever met. The location. Quiet, by the seahore, near the restaurants, city center and the shuttles to the old city. Rooms. Spacious and clean. Breakfast. Cheap and rich.

Miinukset: Nothing.

Plussat: Staff was extremely helpful and friendly. Breakfast reasonably priced and VERY good. Ileana makes a very rich breakfast, in taste and variety. Excellent coffee.

Miinukset: I liked everything.

Plussat: The staff is very friendly and helpfull. Nice location outside of the medieval town, to which you can easily walk. Our room had a lovely view. Tip: walk to the medieval town, wander around and lastly walk up to the lighthouse. From there goes a nice flat hiking trail alongside the water and the other end of the island back to the bridge. Nice and quiet walk :)

Miinukset: Breakfast is OK, but not a lot of choice, coffee medium.

Plussat: Staff were so friendly. Room was clean and comfortable. Really nice shower. Only a short walk to Monemvasia. Easy parking around the hotel.

Plussat: Location is right on the water and we had a great view of the rock. Not all rooms would have that view. Staff was very helpful. It was an easy location to find.

Miinukset: There was no breakfast but the café right next door served breakfast.

Plussat: stayed 2 nights; very happy and would stay here again

Plussat: The staff were amazing. Nothing was a problem, hotel was very clean, the balcony doors and shutters are great - the best we've seen anywhere. Great location and plenty of information available ranging from places to eat, drives to take, and places of interest. Great breakfast served next door as well.

Miinukset: Not a thing

Plussat: Very Clean room, very help staff, accommodating, beautiful location.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Setting in the old town centre

Miinukset: Mosquitoes although this is a result from an neighbouring property that is overgrown

Plussat: Once you get to it, it is really special. The location right under the rock above and in a beautiful square just above the sea is exceptional. The owner is Theophano or Phanny and she is passionate about her extraordinary town. She was very hospitable and helped us in every way possible. We had the top floor apartment which was huge and overlooked the stunning square and sea ....and she gave us a wonderful Greek breakfast albeit at an extra cost.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The Location is wonderfull. Breakfast is home made and super tasty! Amazing views. Very helpful owners. The Rooms are tastefully furnished.

Plussat: Excellent location (probably the best in Monevmasia). Stylish and spacious room. Very clean. Safe. Very good breakfast. Owners were very attentive and helpful. Would stay there again.

Plussat: This beautiful hotel is architect designed to completely immerse you in the history and atmosphere of the place. Stylish and beautifully detailed the Suite was gorgeous. The location was great too. Monemvasia has so much to offer and this accommodation ticked all of our boxes.

Miinukset: Having to leave after 3 days. The stay was too short.

Plussat: Terrific hosts! wonderful breakfast Beautiful setting!

Plussat: Breakfast was served in an inner courtyard and was of good quality at the price of 9 Euro per person. It is not of the Swedish buffet type but the food was sufficient. The location of the hotel is wonderful in a city that is already a wonder. The host, Theophano, introduced herself as a retired lawyer and is a person who has tried to indicate the strengths of the surroundings. But to be very honest a better choice would have been to live not in the old fortress but in the village of Monemvasia where you could breathe in large spaces, without being elbowed by tourists, and the restaurants had incomparably better prices than those in the old fortress Monemvasia.

Miinukset: The bed was narrow for two persons, and the bathroom is lilliput sized. Also, the bedside lamps did not have a strong light, and the TV programs were extremely few in number.

Plussat: There is nothing we didn’t like: the room and dining area are furnished with style, are very clean and comfortable and command an excellent position

Miinukset: My fault! We didn’t request help in getting our luggage to the hotel.

Plussat: We were welcomed from the first moment, and felt very comfortable throught out stay. Sparkling clean room, high quality towels and pillows. Breakfast had a traditional twist and was served in a cute yard. We were lucky to be offered an upgrade and a late checkout, free of charge, due to off season visit, but it shows the character of the owners.

Plussat: The hotel is part of the ancient Monemvasia old town, and is well integrated into the fairy tale decor. The owners and their workers did a very good job! The room was perfectly clean, and has nice touches of decoration. The bathroom is a little bit small, but is also very clean. Breakfast was ok. Plan your luggage accordingly, take only what you need for the night, it is not easy to transport your luggage on the cobbled stones in the old city. There is possible to hire a luggage carrier, the hotel staff is able to assist.

Miinukset: Everything was perfect.

Plussat: What can we say about likinia hotel? A magnificent boutique hotel situated in one of the most unique places I have ever visited! The experience of staying in the monemvasia castle itself is absolutely amazing. On top of that, the hotel is wonderful and with an amazing view. The room we stayed in (family room) was extra convenient for a family with two kids and super clean. The owners are very friendly and helpful with everything we needed during our stay. The hotel staff even helped as carry our luggage inside the castle (which was also really helpful!). The breakfast was also great! We cant wait to visit again in spring!

Plussat: We had a beautiful room with a fantastic sea view, the evening breeze kept it nice and cool. The location was great, close to all the restaurants but incredibly quiet as well. Everyone at the hotel was very welcoming and friendly. I’m gluten intolerant which the hotel were fantastic about even getting me some gluten free bread for breakfast. We will definitely be recommending to friends.

Miinukset: Nothing we had a lovely stay

Plussat: Wonderful hotel,very comfortable and scrupulously clean.Fresh,enjoyable breakfast.All the staff were welcoming ,friendly and so helpful .Would highly recommend this hotel.

Miinukset: N/A As everything was great

Plussat: Location was really close to the entrance of Monemvasia with an awesome view from the room. Our host was lovely as well and makes the most amazing mead and wines, 11/10 would stay here again

Miinukset: Might get a little noisy at night bcos of the bar just across, but nothing too serious

Plussat: It’s location is perfect amongst all the bars, restaurants and shops. The view is spectacular. Would definitely come back without doubt. Loved it.

Plussat: Very nice double room, ideal for 2 friends who want separate rooms, or young familes. Our host was so nioce and helpful, very easily accessible! Amazing location, within the medieval castle of Monemvasia, with great bars and restaurants around. It's also very convenient, as it is very close to the entrance to the castle, so you don't need to carry the luggage long. Tip: when you enter the castle-town, don't walk too much inside to reach the hotel, it's not far!

Miinukset: Parking in Monemvasia is a problem in high season - but not a problem special to this hotel.

Plussat: View House Manager +++ Jacuzzi Bed super comfy

Plussat: Space, coffee machine, good location but loud

Miinukset: Whirlpool Jacuzzi

Plussat: The property was absolutely stunning set in the most beautiful location the staff were lovely, attentive and very helpful with our special requirements. The best holiday ever!!!

Plussat: Everything was perfect!The hosts were really kind and helpful.The room was very clean and spacious and the location was few meters from castle's central gate which is very convenient for carrying your luggages.

Plussat: Very nice and helpful hosts, tasty breakfast, Clean and comfortable room. Recomend.

Plussat: We received warm welcome from the house owner who gave us a warm hug and prepare afternoon tea when we arrived. The view is very good from our room and can see sunrise in the morning. The breakfast is great and we didn't expect it was included.

Miinukset: If Google map location can be provided through email beforehand will be excellent.

Plussat: The hotel was close to Monemvasia and the owner is really nice and helpful.

Plussat: The only posite side was the kindness of Katerina

Miinukset: 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.

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

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

Plussat: We arrived late and were a little embarrassed to wake up the host. But he was very kind and helpful. The pool was also a great addition. The appartment was very spacious. The breakfast was buffet, which I like a lot and it was very varied.

Miinukset: The phone number written on the reception door for latecomers has some problems. I first got a mobile operator response center (I think A1, not sure), and only on the third attempt from a different phone, I got connected to the host (try using 00 intead of + for foreign calls). Not a problem if you come when the reception is open. I do, however, appreciate A LOT, that we could enter the room anyway and the host was so kind and understanding. Although, if the phone number wouldn't have worked, I really don't know what we would have done.

Plussat: 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!

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

Plussat: The owners/operated were fantastic. We only stayed one night but there were hugs all around when we said goodbye. They were so nice.

Miinukset: It was a bit too far from the town.

Plussat: Nice view, big rooms, friendly staff, great placing for daily excursions (monemvasia,elafonisos etc)

Miinukset: Many bees, poor breakfast, inadequate service (understaffed)

Plussat: Very large suite with great view to the sea. Nice pool and spa. Sunset swim at the near beach is amazing. Very friendly staff and nice breakfast buffet.

Plussat: Breakfast excellent! View fantastic!!

Miinukset: The distance from the sea.

Plussat: Huoneisto oli siisti, tilava, tyylikäs ja moderni. Näköala terassilta upea. Aamupala monipuolinen. Ravintola upealla paikalla. Hotellialue todella kaunis ja viihtyisä. Uima-allas puhdas.

Miinukset: Ravintolan hintalaatusuhde huono. Annokset pieniä, ruoka kylmää ja mautonta. Aamupalalla kahvi tarjoiltiin kannussa kylmänä. Lapsiperheitä runsaasti, vaikka hotellialue ei ole suunniteltu pienille lapsille.

Plussat: Having travelled to this area over the past 45 years and some 25 trips and with my family hailing from this seaside village, I can tell you that this is the finest hotel - as well as the priciest hotel - within a 15 to 25 mile radius of this area. Exceptional views of the plytra bay and modern rooms with western style showers and amenities. Hotel is 2 years old with nice linens and bedding. Rooms are over 600 square feet with large balconies. Views from rooms are awesome. Wind protected hotel perched on a steep rocky areas overlooking the entire bay. Pool Bar served great cocktails.

Miinukset: Food at the restaurant was not good by most Greek standards. I prefer to eat at the taverns along the beach for more traditional Greek cuisine with better quality ingredients and dishes. Service was good but not great when compared to chains like the four seasons, mandarin oriental etc.

Plussat: excellent everything , nothing to complaint about , very good service and rooms , with all amenities you need , unbelievable views , the beach was like a pool , transparent water and easy to get to .

Miinukset: it could be better if there where some steps from the restaurant to the rooms

Plussat: Good view, easy parking, good location with easy access to Monemvasia (30 mins or so walk to the old town). Saves hassle of staying in old town of Monemvasia itself.

Miinukset: Room (other than bathroom which was more up to date but very small) dated and dark. Hotel seems to be popular with tour groups.

Plussat: The view only!

Miinukset: Too expensive for what it is. Dirty cutlery at breakfast, which was very average itself. The hotel is surrounded by construction sites and rubbish. On a positive note we found that the room was very well cleaned every day.

Plussat: Large and modern decorated quite rooms, parking place

Plussat: Panorama was a good hotel in a very convenient location for visiting Monemvasia Castle. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good. Parking is provided in the hotel carpark. The room was very spacious, clean and comfortable.

Miinukset: The shower space was very small.

Plussat: Super breakfast and beautiful view! Staff really polite, perfect for a relax time in the beautoful city of Malvasia!

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

Plussat: It was located at the very far end of the island and beautifully quiet. The breakfast was superb!

Miinukset: Nothing.

Plussat: Beautiful building, room, facilities. Stunning location and view. Excellent staff. Perfect hotel.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The rooms were very clean, the breakfast was very good. The staff were helpful to recommendations and questions. The setting was INCREDIBLE - relaxing, quaint, beautiful. We had a little balcony where I could watch the sunrise each morning. It's a place to go and relax, take lots of walks through all the surprising walkways, see the beautiful little shops, take afternoon naps, eat at a delicious restaurant, swim in the beautiful Myrtoan Sea!

Miinukset: Initially to find the hotel was a bit confusing.

Plussat: The room was amazing. The outdoor bar beside the reception desk offers you the best ocean night view with a serenity which I simply enjoyed a lot.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Great location, balcony with a view.

Plussat: Great spot

Plussat: Charming small hotel few miles from Monemvasia on the sea cost. There are few bright and airy rooms with terrace fronting the pool and see. Great swimming pool with view of the rock of ancient city. There is a small kitchen in the room and also communal kitchen in the building. Great touch is backed of oranges and fresh eggs in the fridge. There is also small local shop few hundred meters away. Some very good tavernas are in the area. (but bevare - might be closed off season). Apartment is spotlessly clean and maintained well. Owner are on the area and helpful if you need anything extra. There are some nice walks around farming villages and olive orchards.

Miinukset: Everything was perfect or better.

Plussat: Excellent large pool

Miinukset: Kitchen utinsils space and wifi off and on.

Plussat: Very clean We appréciatif the swimming pool

Miinukset: The room was smaller than described

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

Plussat: Everything was perfect. The owner is incredibly nice and helpful. We appreciated the oranges and eggs every morning. The place is beautifully located, you can hear and see the sea.

Plussat: Wonderful view of Monemvasia and the sound of the breaking shore! Room was somewhat small, but beautiful windows and balconies and wonderful daytime light.

Miinukset: There is a good deal of night light from the road. There is also no real beach at which to swim. Rather, a rock/concrete pier-type area just to the right of the hotel shoreline is the only option (besides the pool).

Plussat: Fantastic views. Super staff and family business

Plussat: The hotel is very clean and comfortable, with a big pool and direct access to the sea. Very close to Monemvasia and other beautiful villages in the region. It was nice to have eggs and oranges for breakfast.

Miinukset: The hotel is very close to the road so if you want to avoid the noise, I would suggest booking a room with full sea view. The owners are nice and friendly but don’t really speak any English so it’s not always easy to communicate.

Plussat: The view from our bedroom was great. The patio just outside our bedroom was good for watching a beautiful sunrise/sunset/starry sky. The hot shower was powerful and the bed very comfortable.

Miinukset: The wifi signal could be stronger.

Plussat: Very big living room and great location. Good facilities in general

Miinukset: Small size.of toilet. Wet and partially broken shower door

Plussat: Very special, charming place and the hotel itself. Great breakfast, friendly and helpful staff. In November a very pleasant and quiet atmosphere :-)

Plussat: Very nice location with a beautiful view over the sea from the terrace. The breakfast was very, very good.

Plussat: The hot water and the excellent breakfast. Loved our stay! Will definitely have to come back to visit again!

Plussat: Ok

Miinukset: Be sure that you are in the hotel and not in the appartments :(

Plussat: The location

Miinukset: It was great

Plussat: Very nice little hotel in Monemvasia Castle, great views and super breakfast.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The room with the sea view is nice as I can see the sun rise and it was a beautiful view.

Miinukset: The showering area is very small and the room for a bit of musky smell.

Plussat: The location is perfect: in the center of the village, the breakfast was excellent !!

Miinukset: No balcony

Plussat: Very nice breakfast, plenty of homemade choices, and in a cafe with unique view to main square. Near to restaurants and bars, and also near to the entrance of the castle without many steps. It was exactly on the best place. Everything was Perfect.

Miinukset: We had booked simple type of room (it was our choice), but it was without windows and view. The only window that it has was near to the restaurants kitchen and if you leave it open during the day, then the room smell "food". But if you have it close then no problem of smells.

Plussat: Very helpful staff. Rooms comfortable and tastefully furnished. Good breakfast.

Miinukset: First room we stayed in had no window views at all - we were warned about no view, but didn't realise it also meant not much natural light. Moved to a much better room following night. Arrived at end of a holiday weekend and the town was heaving - not very pleasant. But the crowds disappeared overnight.

Plussat: Wonderful location in this historic city/castle, incredible view and atmosphere, it's like "Game of thrones" in real life ! The owners are incredibly nice and helpful in every way, thank you for a wonderful time !

Plussat: Excellent breakfast

Miinukset: The arrangements for getting us to the accommodation worked very wekk

Plussat: Good breakfast, spacious room with great view, lots of great cats around

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

Plussat: The setting and the ambiance are beautiful

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

Plussat: The view and peacefull atmosphere.

Miinukset: 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)

Plussat: 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.

Plussat: 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...

Miinukset: 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!

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

Plussat: 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.

Miinukset: The wifi didn't work.

Plussat: very clean rooms, beautiful scenery, extremely friendly staff

Miinukset: wi-fi internet was not working due to increased traffic in the evening

Plussat: Everything was perfect and as described. Very clean, great working staff, and amazing location, and very complete breakfast. Great value for money and I will go back definitely on muy next tryo to Monenvassia.

Plussat: The view from the room was amazing! The host was really kind and helpful, and the breakfast was delicious. It even included freshly squeezed orange juice!

Plussat: Very quite and comfortable stay in Monemvasia. The lady at the desk is very friendly and accomodating, the rooms are clean and spacious and the breakfast is very very good.

Miinukset: Wi-fi signal was very weak in our room

Plussat: Excellent location. A lovely family run property. Very accommodating owners . Would recommend a booking eyes closed. The owner was nice enough to open an extra room closer to the reception for me to use for my video conferencing as the WIFi in my room was not strong enough. She even came around to ask if she could make me some eggs as the scrambled eggs in buffet were finished by the time I came to eat.

Miinukset: Nothing. all was good

Plussat: Outstanding. Very professional. Homely atmosphere. Thank you the lady managing the hotel!

Plussat: Easy acces to the main sights in the region. Good breakfast. Polite personnel
