Ridiculous value for money!
We booked an executive suite apparently (it wasn’t expensive). The room was lovely, wrap around balcony, sea views from two sides, lots of space and good quality patio doors (very good for blocking traffic noise). Lovely views from the balcony and roof terrace restaurant. Check in was supposed to be 2pm, but ready when we arrived two hours early. Great location for the marina and short walk to the city. Ridiculous value for money!

When I absolutely needed to have laundry done, they did it for only a few Euros more than the nearby self-serve laundry, and delivered it almost a day earlier than I expected. Great staff!

The hotel is quite old and the furniture as well.
Even a superior room does not provide the expected comfort .
The hotel has a great advantage in it’s location , in the front of the beach and a big parking area.
The staff is very generous but most of them are not experienced specially in the meals.
Most of the guests are local citizens and not foreign tourists , maybe that’s the reason for mentioned disadvantages .
The reception is always on duty 24/7 but there is no consultants for to see the city , if the officer in charge knows he may offer any places if not the guest has to search in internet.

The property was very well situated (next to the sea). We slept very well and the bed were very confortable.
The only things I’ll recommend it’s to have some vegetarian option for the breakfast. Other way it was a great breakfast and the staff were very nice and kind.

Pérsonalized service was impeccable. It was our second time there.Our first stay was four days and our second was nine. The rooftop breakfast and restaurant offers breathtaking indoor/outdoor views overlooking the sea and mountains. The hotel became our base for daily historic side trips. We will return to our "home away from home" in Kalamata!

Rooms weren't very clean, and there was no adjustable air-conditioning. Shower was also difficult to get in and out.
Breakfast and view from restaurant were excellent and made up for this.

MUST Book this hotel!!
We absolutely fell in love with this hotel and its service. The breakfast was to die for, with amazing sea views. Everything was walking distance and the hotel helped secure taxis whenever we needed one. There was room service, daily cleaning of the room, and easy access to the room.
