Best Three Star Hotels in Kalambaka

Very disappointed as I spent quite a bit of time looking for just the ”right” place to stay in this magical area. This was a long awaited trip extensive trip through Greece (and Istanbul) and as stated, I took great pains to find just the right establishment in each place I visited. My stay in Kalambaka was to be no different. With only 2 short days, this was to be of quality, not quantity. While still be somewhat budget conscious, I was not going to settle for a bottom of the barrel ”economy room” someplace in the area. I wanted a warm and inviting room with a nice balcony to relax, have some wine, look up at the Rocks and ponder over my experiences that day after a magical and spiritual day of exploring the Monasteries. After searching and reviewing any hotels, bnb's (what have you), many the same price range, if not less, I landed on Toti. Close to everything (shops, town life, markets, scooter rental, and train station), but not ”right in the middle” of it all where it wouldn't be quite as peaceful. Had simple, but warm and inviting decor and an inviting and comfortable balcony, just as I wanted (...or so it was advertised). As I have learned over the years, I had contacted the establishment to confirm the room I was booking; size, style, amenities, balcony, view etc. Upon receiving their reply email, informing me there was no coffee pot/kettle, so I should buy breakfast (???), did have a nice balcony with meteora view, as well as advising me to look at the pictures of the room they had posted, as to show what to expect for the room I was booking. With that confirmation I went through with the booking. When I arrived and shown to the room I was in awe (and not in a good way), so much so I expressed as such pretty much the minute I stepped into the room. I was simply told it had what I booked (??). When I saw the ”balcony” I was even more so taken aback. It had a metal security door on a side wall that opened up into a ”space” that was more of an outdoor landing than a balcony. No more than 5x3 feet, a metal corrugated partition, and one plastic yard chair squeezed in. There wasn't even room for a table so they had a ”tray table” attached to the railing. While it did have a view of the Rocks, it was far from comfortable and relaxing as I had to squeeze around the door just to be able to get to the chair to sit down. Forget about being able to sit back and relax, as the only way I was able to stretch my legs was to shimmy the chair out a bit to be able to close the door (leaving me outside); which I was afraid to do without leaving a wedge in the door jamb for fear of getting locked out on said ”balcony”. (as the door, handle, lock etc were some subpar ”storage unit” looking type deal). So, after a quick debate with myself to address this with management in attempt to resolve and remedy, I didnt want to waste the minimal time I had dealing with this bs. I dropped of my bags and went to explore. Upon my late evening return, after an AMAZI

Excellent hotel near the rocks and monasteries. This boutique Hotel has 19 rooms right across the street from a very high rock where you can watch rock climbers. It is also very close to the monasteries and everything in town. The staff is exceptionally friendly with great service. The rooms are charming with a nice patio and clean. I highly recommend this hotel if you’re staying in this area.

We stayed here as part of a Key Tours 2 Day/1N tour to Delphi and Meteora. Looking at our trip to Greece as a whole, we stayed in 2 star places that were better than this hotel. Wifi was terrible, and the food on offer was well below standard. It was noisy, with school groups and other bus tour groups staying there as well. Staff were also unhelpful. It was hard to watch a elderly lady being treated impatiently when asking for help with the wifi codes.We understand that tourism is big business here, but please remember that impressions are quickly formed via customer service. 2 stars were given for location of the hotel, being walking distance into town, and view of the Monasteries.

The Greek couple in the hotel are really enthusiastic and do their best to help solve the requested requirements, such as my parents need hot water. However, it is still somewhat inconvenient. It is recommended to bring a boiling water bottle. There is also a washing utensil and slippers to be prepared. Because I was in a hurry to choose this home, the overall location is good. After all, it is 3 stars. If you like the fun, you can choose infor centre nearby. Breakfast is very rich~~ It is estimated that this is a special feature of Greece😁

Nous avons bien aimé notre séjour à l’Hôtel Kastraki! Notre chambre double était luxueuse, propre et spacieuse. Les membres du personnel sont sympathiques et accueillants. Nous leur avons posé plusieurs questions et nous avons été bien informés. Nous avons même reçu plusieurs recommandations de restaurants qui se sont avérées très justes! Le déjeuner, sous forme de buffet, est copieux et plusieurs plats y sont offerts. L’hôtel est sur la route qui mène vers les Météores; pour les voyageurs en voiture, l’hôtel possède des places de stationnement, donc nul besoin de rechercher des places disponibles dans les rues avoisinantes!

We stayed at Alexiou Hotel during our 3 day stay in Kalambaka - Meteora area, it well situated very close to all you might need, cafes, restaurants, super markets etc. Staff very helpful and the room clean with every day cleaning. Very good choice for stay in Kalambaka.

We had a good memory of staying in this hotel five or six years ago, but we stopped it again in June. Swimming pool, two monolingual employees who seem to turn the shop alone, unattractive breakfast, unindoorable coffee, tired air conditioning obtained after negotiations, red shower garden bar, moisis bathroom accessories..... Short, the Edelweiss, it was before ....

The hotel is really nice. When you walk in the main entrance it looks very good. The lady on the reception was a nice lady and extremely helpful. The room was nicely done up. Then we noticed no kettle!! Me thinking it was an oversize asked her where it was and was told they don't have them. But she will make us cups of hot water if we need it. The bathroom was small with a half bath tub but it was really cold in there. The bedroom was very warm which was nice as it was freezing out there. Don't bother with the breakfast. It felt the hotel mainly geared for coach parties
