Argostoli Essence Suites

"We stayed for 3 nights after having to move from our previous accommodation in Lassi . The staff are all very helpful. Our room was on the ground floor and was very spacious even if a little dark, with Molton Brown shower facilities. The breakfast area was outside and not very big hence the reason you have to pre-order the night before, also the time you would like it. Most of the tables were in the sun, unless you were lucky to get 2 of the tables that were in the shade , and in June when we were there it did get a bit too hot and butter was melting before we could use it ! There was nowhere inside to have breakfast which we would have preferred. The pool was a square large bath, in the shade , you could just cool down in it , but not for swimming , which we didn’t use. The hotel would be ok to use as a base for exploring Kefalonia if you have not been to the island before and possibly only for a short break."

"The staff were super welcoming to us. They even opened the bar up out of hours (3AM) so we could watch the England match."

King A

"Great little Boutique Hotel just off the centre of Argostoli overlooking the rowing club by the harbour. We spent one night in Argostoli, and this little Hotel was perfect. We had a harbour view room which was lovely and had everything we needed, the side rooms have the benefit of afternoon/evening sunshine on their balconies. We were not expecting great things for breakfast, but the offering was amazing: fresh orange juice, Greek yogurt with honey, apple, granola, raspberry compote, followed by fresh bread and croissants and a choice of eggs. I’m sure other reviewers will mention breakfast! If you are looking for a clean, hospitable, friendly little bolthole in Argostoli this is perfect. We will return!"

Liostasi Retreat

"Liostasi Retreat I want to mention from the start that this was our third consecutive year visiting this wonderful island, but it was our first time choosing the capital, Argostoli. We spent 9 wonderful days at Liostasi with my wife and our two children. We booked the apartment back in January, as it seemed ideal for us: 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, a large hallway with a fully equipped open-space kitchen, and an enormous balcony. The retreat’s rooms are named after famous beaches on the island, and ours was named Myrtos. The rooms are very beautiful, cleaning is done daily with great care, and our hosts were constantly attentive to anything that could improve the guests’ stay. From the very first day, we were warmly welcomed by our hosts, Giannis and Vassiliky. The location is very close to the airport, about a 20-minute drive, and also very near the lively city center, approximately a 10-minute walk to the first shopping stores and the impressive waterfront. Although we initially thought we knew the island well, our host provided us with a map and circled a multitude of new places worth visiting and exploring. Back to Liostasi. We wanted accommodation with breakfast included from the start, and we didn’t regret it at all. The breakfast was hearty, healthy, and typically Mediterranean, including, among other things: fresh fruits, Greek yogurt, honey, cereals, coffee, chocolate pastries, delicious bread, various jams, cheese, orange juice, and other items that, honestly, you can probably see in the photos. There’s also the option to have dinner here, but unfortunately, I can’t provide details since we didn’t have time for it. We would return late in the evening from the city, spend some time on the balcony terrace, and plan the next day. We felt amazing, the kids were thrilled with all the amenities provided by our hosts, and we left reluctantly but promised to return with joy to these wonderful and welcoming people.
