Ionis Hotel

Best location to everywhere of ısland

There have been so many great reviews already written about this hotel it’s difficult not to repeat everything that has already been said. We decided to book after reading all the positive comments and we are so pleased we did it is an absolutely gem of a little hotel. Excellent service from all the staff and Ilias and Peri made us feel very welcome when we arrived, we knew then we were going to have a great holiday. The hotel has a quiet relaxed and friendly atmosphere, everywhere is comfortable and spotless, the lovely pool area with its Sun loungers is a great place to top up your tan plus the tables and chairs which are in a shaded are a welcome place to sit. Pool bar serves drinks and snack from morning until late and prices are very reasonable. Ilias or peri will give you all the information about the local area regarding restaurants and places to visit and if required they are more than happy to take you to a couple of restaurants up the hill for a donation towards petrol money. If you require a taxis or car hire you will get the best prices available if you arrange these with Ilias or Peri. You can catch the bus across the road from the hotel to Argostoli €2 each way and we never had any problems. We had an amazing holiday so much so we booked to return again next year before we left the hotel which says it all. we are well traveled and this is the first time in over 40 years we have ever wanted to return to the same place so quickly. However ‼️ please note if you are looking for a hotel with music and dancing round the pool with lots of entertainment in and around the hotel then this would definitely NOT be the place for you. If you want a peaceful holiday with like minded friendly guests then I would 💯 recommend this wonderful hotel. A big thank you to Ilias Peri and all the staff for a fantastic holiday and we look forward to seeing you all next year. David & Ann xx Nigel & Mandy xxx 😘

Беше чисто и локацията е идеална.

Няма достатъчно удобства в стаите, старо обзавеждане и каналът беше запушен.

Consiglio a tutti il soggiorno in questo hotel. Sia per la posizione che per la struttura. Hotel accogliente e pulito, personale super cordiale. Ci hanno dato persino un piccolo omaggio a fine soggiorno, che abbiamo molto apprezzato.😊 La posizione è perfetta per andare ad Argostoli che dista circa 10-13 min di auto, ottimo compromesso per raggiungere le spiagge alla mattina e andare ad Argostoli di sera. Ci ritornerò sicuramente

Stayed for a week at the Ionis hotel (with Easyjet holidays) and had a great time. From the moment we checked in, Ilias and his wife Peri were always around and available. We arrived on a Thursday evening - quiz night by the pool bar - and a homemade mousaka & salad during the quiz was 12 euro. Quiz was fun - lots of people taking part. The quiz was the only organised evening event while we were there. All the guests were really friendly - most evenings we would go out to eat then come back to the hotel for drinks at the pool bar and to chat to other guests. Bar prices were fair (3.80 euro for large Mythos beer / 5 euro for 1/2 carafe of wine). There wasn't an option to eat dinner at the hotel (apart from on quiz night) but there was one taverna directly opposite, another (slightly nicer one - make sure you ask about the specials) about a 15 minute walk away - although if you mention it to Ilias, he will ring the taverna owner's father who will happily pick you up and drop you back to the hotel. There were also the 2 lovely restaurants up by the castle (Olive Lounge and Il Bourgo - slightly more expensive than the local tavernas but worth a visit). For a small petrol donation, Ilias will drive you up there at 7.30pm and collect you again at 9.30pm. We walked up to the castle (about a 25 min uphill walk - but only 15 mins back!) - there's a gift shop and cafe up there as well as the castle. Just don't go on a Tuesday as it's all closed! There's also a really nice bakery about 15min walk from the hotel that sells filled baguettes, lovely Greek savoury pastries, sweet pastries, ice creams and coffee - very good value. You can sit outside on a couple of tables to eat. And if you get thirsty on the way back, stop off at Cafe Cozi where you can sit in the back garden and have a large, ice cold Mythos for 2.50 euro! As others have said, it is a 2* hotel - the rooms are fairly small and old fashioned and bathrooms even smaller (although our neighbour's bathroom was twice the size of ours!) But everything is clean and aircon etc works. The breakfast is pretty basic and samey - but there was plenty to eat each day. The best bit about the hotel was the pool! It was big, clean, lots of sunbeds and parasols (with good availability - no one seemed to go out and reserve them early) - and all the staff were friendly and went out of their way to make you feel welcome. For the price we paid, we couldn't have had a better holiday - thank you!

We spent 2 weeks here in June and were made to feel very welcome by Perri and Ilios, the owners. They go out of their way to make guests feel at home and also provide a taxi service to nearby restaurants. The rooms are basic and dated but very clean with towels and bedding changed regularly. Remember you are paying for a 2star hotel so don’t expect 4 star luxury. Included in your room for no extra charge is air conditioning and a safe. The pool is large and the area around it relaxing with a nice pool bar where snacks are available. To get about and see the island I would recommend hiring a car as although there is a bus stop outside the hotel the service is irregular and unreliable.Breakfast is included, a typically Greek selection of yogurt, honey, cereals, melon, pastries and bread but also fried and scrambled eggs, sausage and beans. The internet works very well all over the hotel. Overall, this is a great value hotel with many returning customers.

Stayed at Ionis for 7 nights last September and absolutely loved it, so returned for a longer 14 nights stay early June this year. The hotel is kept spotlessly clean & has such a relaxed atmosphere it’s little wonder so many guests return. Owners Ilias & Peri, together with son Dennis, Gina & Fouli (cleaners) & newly recruited Geni (pool bar), are so friendly & helpful it’s like being home from home. We again met some lovely fellow guests who became dear friends during our stay, & can’t praise or recommend Hotel Ionis enough. Many thanks Ilias, Peri & team for a memorable holiday, and look forward to seeing you when we hopefully return next year :) Terence & Ann South Wales
