Castello Nuovo Suite by CorfuEscapes

The renovation and the location

Great appartment in central Corfu, walking distance from restaurants, boutiques, etc. and from the Corfu Archeological Museum. The appartment itself was very nice, clean and comfortable. We were able to arrive independently despite our very late flight with the key left for us somewhere safe by the owners. We arranged this by calling earlier in the day the same day we were due to arrive. The team was very responsive and then set up a communication channel via Whatsapp which was great for other questions as well. I do recommend doing this and installing Whatsapp to get in touch with them, as this will also allow you to get detailed instructions on how to find the appartment, which would otherwise be hard to find. A word of warning: this appartment is 2 floors up with no elevator, only regular stairs, so it is not suitable for people with mobility issues. For us, however, it was no problem. In addition, the studio appartment itself had everything we needed: AC, wifi, fridge, dishes and kitchenware (minimal, but enough for a short stay), etc. NB: If you cannot make the wifi work, it's because the password is not the one indicated by the team, it's the one on the back of the router. Other than this little hiccup for which we found the solution ourselves, everything was great. Check-out was also arranged via Whatsapp and done independently by leaving the keys inside, which was very practical. All in all, we would stay here again if we come back to Corfu. Recommended and approved!

Great stay ideal location , hosts communicated everything well. The apartment was spotless, perfect for couples , all amenities close by , we even walked to the airport for our homeward journey.

The property is very nicely decorated & spacious and the location was very convenient.

Although the property is newly renovated, it smells like mold as the building is really old. You couldn’t stand it without open windows and even then the smell was there. We came back and all of our clothes smelled liked mold even though we kept them in the suitcase. Also, the stairs that lead to the apartment were very steep and dirty (not sure if the the property mentions that there are stairs to the apartment). There is a broken window in these stairs so there were many insects and a cat there. The lady that greeted us to take us to the building was on the phone the whole time and kept running. It’s understandable since she must have been very busy due to high season but it was hard for us to follow her with the luggage and the first impression wasn’t what we would expect.

The location is great. The flat itself is spacious, very clean, with 2 a/c that are necessary during summer. Also, a fully equipped kitchen and all facilities that were listed. The staff was very friendly and provided us with helpful tips and places to visit/eat. Overall, an exciting stay!
