Guest Reviews
- Judit (8/5): - Clean rooms, friendly staff, and basic breakfast (small portions of juice, jam, honey, toast, boiled eggs). A plus is that the hotel offered rides to the park entrance, stored our luggage and allowed us to park our car overnight. A nice and convenient stay before and after hiking the Samaria Gorge (the bus from Sougia left us in front of the hotel on our way back)

- sylvie (10/5): Je conseille vivement cette hôtel - Nous avons passé une excellente nuit dans cette hôtel avant les gorges de Samaria. De bon conseil pour réservation bateau et bus pour le retour. Il nous a emmené gracieusement au refuge pour le départ de la randonnée. Super petit déjeuner pour 7€.
- Susanne (10/5): Värt en natt extra. - Kanske min bästa hotellvistelse någonsin. Vänlig och hjälpsam personal, fantastisk prisvärd mat och lågt rumspris sommartid väger med råge upp för de små slitna detaljerna i rummet. Omalosplatån är en oas av tystnad och koklockor där högljudda cicador förbytts mot lågmälda syrsor på kvällarna. Hit kommer jag gärna tillbaka.
- Birgit (10/5): - .
- Lydie (10/5): - Idéal pour faire les gorges de Samaria : très proche ! Personnel très gentil, repas du soir très bon et pas cher ! Une fille parle un peu français et sinon en anglais ! Literie confortable !
- Magali (8/5): - Chambre sans clim mais aucun besoin le jour ou je suis venue.
Salle de bain petite mais tres propre.
Tres calme et personnel tres accueillant.
Repas avec agneau delicieux!
- Laurent (8/5): Hôtel idéal pour les gorges de samaria - Hôtel de montagne familiale sans prétention mais très propre, avec un service de restauration de qualité fait maison et cerise sur le gâteau une serveuse qui parle le français. Le personnel est charmant. Je recommande vivement !
- Brigitte (8/5): - Une belle place sur le plateau d’Omalos pour dormir avant de partir en randonnée ou au retour d’une randonnée.
La nourriture était excellente.
- GIANCARLO (8/5): Ottima scelta per visitare le gole di Samaria - Hotel di montagna rustico ma confortevole. Le camere sono arredate in modo semplice ed essenziale ma non manca nulla. Personale gentilissimo. Abbiamo apprezzato molto la navetta gratuita per le gole di Samaria e il fatto che il bus di rientro abbia la fermata davanti all’albergo. Buona la colazione. Ottimo il ristorante per la cena.
- Caroline (10/5): - Great place to stay to visit the area. We only stayed one night so we could visit the Samaria Gorge but wish we'd have been staying longer! The rooms have everything you need and the staff were very welcoming. The food was very tasty and we even went back for an evening meal after the Gorge!!
The free transfers to the gorge are also really good.
Definitely deserves more than 2 stars!!
- Peter (8/5): Hotel Omalos - Virkelig god service
- Brian (10/5): - The hotel staff were very thoughtful. Dinners there were excellent, especially the bean soup which I had two nights in a row. The hotel offers a complimentary shuttle service to the Samaria Gorge trailhead, and the KTEL public bus service from Sougia drops passengers off right in front of the hotel. Highly recommended.
- Evelyne (10/5): Super hôtel - Hotel très bien situé pour le départ de la
randonnée de Samaria, service de transport gratuit proposé le matin au départ des gorges de Samaria. Hôtel dans le style montagnard, clame. Accueil très agréable, personnel très sympathique, toujours souriant, qui anticipe même les questions et les demandes ! Repas très bon, petit déjeuner exceptionnel, qualité, quantité, idéal pour demarrer la randonnée. Hôtel à recommander sans hesitation
- Leslie (10/5): - An absolutely perfect night before our Gorge walk. Amazing host and food.
- Garfield (10/5): Lovely hotel - Lovely hotel - clean and comfortable - and very helpful friendly service.
- Marius (10/5): - Nous avons passé un agréble séjour dans cet hôtel (2 nuits). Le transport gratuit (3 horaires) le matin pour aller au gorge. Nota : il n'est pas nécessaire de partir trés tôt, car l'après-midi, pour le retour, il n'y a qu'un seul ɓateau à 17h30 et il y a de la place pour tout le monde. Et les bus sont nombreux.
- FRANCHET (10/5): - Je crois que cet etablissement restera un gros coup de coeur de notre sejour en Crète.
Etablissement familial, tres bonne cuisine , sourires, accueil chaleureux,
Merci a cette famille et à Babyss le grand pere qui a partagé sa passion de l'apiculture avec mon mari et comme interprète sa petite fille. Moment exceptionnel

- Camille (10/5): Merveilleux séjour idéalement situe pour Samaria - Très bon séjour. Chambre très propre. Personnel très accueillant. L hotel proposeune navette gratuite allant jusqu au départ de l'entrée des gorges. L'hotel est idealement situé poue visiter les gorges de Samaria. Petit déjeuner très complet.
Le restaurant de l'hotel est excellent avec une cuisine familiale.
Allez y les yeux fermés.
- Laura (10/5): Emplacement idéal pour faire les Gorges de Samaria - Hôtel situé à Omalos, lieu dépaysant avec un restaurant traditionnel. Il est situé à 10 minutes en voiture du début de la randonnée des Gorges de Samaria (3 navettes prévues le matin par l'hôtel pour s'y rendre).
Le petit déjeuner est très complet et les hôtes y sont très accueillants.
La cambre est spacieuse et propre.
- Dirk (8/5): - Saubere preiswerte Zimmer, sehr nettes Personal und sehr reichhaltiges Frühstück. WIFI funktionierte nur zeitweise.
- Marion (8/5): - Très bien mais chambre bruyante (bruit d'eau qui coule et vent qui s'engouffre dans les conduits toute la nuit). Très bien placé néanmoins pour faire Samaria.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - If you're going to Samaria, you should 100% stay here, no hesitation. The rooms are clean, it's near the hike, the food is so good - and the people are incredible. The second day of our stay, I had a flat tire near the hotel. The staff (possibly the owner) went above and beyond to help me: he called and successfully followed-up with the car company which led to them simply exchanging the car for a new one (they had previously told me I'd have to go on a 1+ hour ride with the truck, then wait for the repair, then come back in the middle of the night); he helped me find my girlfriend who I was headed to pick up (called the harbor in the city where she arrived to find her) and called a taxi company to pick her up and bring her back to the hotel - all of this without even having had to ask. This took 1+ hour of his time and he refused that I give any sort of compensation AND he initially didn't even know I was already staying at the hotel while he helped me - a very generous and kind man and staff. We were already extremely satisfied with the hotel, and were glad to come back here after a long hike - now, we'll make sure we visit again, and we encourage you to do the same if you're ever in the region.
- Laurent (10/5): - Perfectly located for Samaria Gorge Hike
- Nicolas (10/5): Nice family run hotel with friendly service - Nice family run hotel with friendly service. Its location is perfect for the hike in the Samaria gorge (a free shuttle from the hotel was available daily during our stay) or around the Omalos Plateau. The restaurant serves a good breakfast and also lunch/dinner with tasty local food.
- Ethan (8/5): Simple but Beautiful - This is a very beautiful hotel in a beautiful setting. It is like a mountain lodge. There are communal seating areas throughout. There is an attached restaurant but we didn’t have a chance to eat there. The room was pretty clean. There was no rubbish (garbage, trash) bin in the room which meant that your only option is to use the customary Greek toilet paper bin which we would have preferred to keep only to that use. There aren’t any extras in the room. The TV is a 12” screen CRT(tube) type television. That didn’t matter to us as we didn’t want to watch TV and found everything to be sufficient. There were beautiful wooden shutters that opened a large window. We had it open most of the time for the fresh mountain air. I don’t believe there was AC but the temperature is milder than on the coast. Ample free parking and a shuttle to the gorge should you desire, though you need to sign up for it as it only makes trips at scheduled times. The only complaint I’d have is the same as almost every accommodation that I’ve experienced in Greece. I am 6ft/182cm and 150lb/68kg so fairly light and thin. I have found these and other beds here to be extremely firm. For my weight and build, and as a side sleeper, the beds feel like wood with a blanket on top for cushion. I would not take off any points for Neo Omalos though, because that has been my experience everywhere in Greece.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Clean room, good restaurant. But no housekeeping the next day. And no towels when I checked into my room. A very hot summer day, and that’s when I found out that none of the hotels in Omalos have air conditioning. Lesson learned. Also, no grocery stores or mini markets in the village. Fortunately the hotel has a snack/bar area downstairs to purchase snacks and drinks.
- SUSAN (10/5): Peaceful Omalos - I stayed for 3 days in June. The hotel is very nice. I had a room at the back overlooking the fields where I could listen to the sheep bells and look at the mountains. Room is spacious, nicely decorated and immaculately clean. I am a light sleeper but it was very quiet and the bed was very comfortable so I slept well. The breakfast was enormous and delicious. The owner's kind wife gave me fruit. I would recommend staying for more than one night to maybe walk the Irini gorge ( quite easily accessible by bus or car ) and then Samaria on second day. Relax and enjoy this peaceful place .....
- Romain (8/5): Hôtel idéalement situé pour les gorges de Samaria - Hôtel bien situé pour effectuer la randonnée des gorges de Samaria.
Le propriétaire nous a conduit gratuitement en mini bus au départ pour la randonnée .
- Line (10/5): - We had a lovely stay at the hotel. Ended up staying 3 nights instead of 1. It’s an older hotel but clean and spacious with super friendly and helpful staff. A great place to stay to explore Samaria and the white mountains.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - L’accueil était chaleureux, la jeune femme nous a donné toutes les explications nécessaires pour l’expédition dans les Gorges de Samaria. Service de conduite vers l’entrée des Gorges le matin apprécié. Petit déjeuner montagnard copieux et excellent.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Sehr gut war die Sauberkeit und die Empfehlung das Busticket per Internet zu buchen.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Personale molto disponibile. Hotel molto organizzato per l'escursione alla Gola di Samaria.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - L amabilité du personnel
Très accueillant
Le petit déjeuner ainsi que le dîner est vraiment très bien
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Excellent service geared to the Samaria Gorge walk.
- catherine (8/5): Bonne situation - hotel calme et accueil cordial ,chambre spacieuse et lumineuse , petit déjeuner correct il faut savoir qu'il est servi à partir de 7h pour les randoneurs et une navette gratuite à partir de 7h45 pour monter aux gorges.Le restaurant est correct et pas de connexion wifi dans les chambres
- sebastien (8/5): Parfait pour dormir avant la visite des gorges - Endroit parfait pour visiter les gorges de Samaria(navette aller gratuite) et le jardin botanique. Service parfait, repas servie à 23h. Un peu de bruit(portes qui claquent pas mal).
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Super accueil, personnel au petit soin. Et très bon petit dej ! Une très bonne auberge pour se lancer avant la rando !
- Will (10/5): Very friendly hotel in a lovely area - The Neos Omalos was unsophisticated, but a really really nice hotel. All the staff were friendly and helpful. Meals were local dishes, full of flavour and interest. Packed lunches were provided on the days we were out walking. The local area is outstanding for walking, scenery and especially the wild flowers. Samaria Gorge was still shut when we were there, but there was so much else to do we could have stayed much longer than the week we were there. Will definitely come again.
- Gert (10/5): tolles Berghotel - sehr guter Ausgangspunkt für Wanderungen, hilfreicher, netter Gastgeber, Essen sehr lecker
- Heike (6/5): - Zweckmäßiges Hotel für den Einstieg in die Samariaschlucht
- Mirna (10/5): - Albergo situato nella piana di Omalos, ideale per visitare le gole di samaria e di agia irinos e figou. Dispone di un servizio navetta ed è possibile telefonare se si arriva a piedi da una delle gole o da una salita in montagna. Alla mattina sono previsti 3 viaggi verso le gole di samaria e il monte Gigilos. Persone molto cortesi, cucina semplice e buona con prodotti locali.
- Karolina (10/5): - Great friendly people owning the place. Very family friendly.
- Stephanie (10/5): - Everything was so perfect. The owner is just so sweet and always ready to make your stay a perfect trip
- Irdiss (8/5): Ottimo soggiorno - Hotel pulito, ordinato e confortevole. Personale molto gentile e disponibile. Cena semplice ma ottima. Posizione ottimale per le gole di samaria.
- Mats (10/5): Utmärkt som bas för vandringar och bergsutflykter. - Bra enkelt hotell på Omalosplatån med bergen som fond. Atmosfären är vänlig och du har nära till flera bra vandringsleder och även Samaria gorge
- Ann (8/5): Perfect location for the gorge launch... - Very thoughtful innkeeper who called me (!) after I made the reservation, to make sure the accommodations would work for my daughter and I on the day we planned to hike the gorge.
- Magali (10/5): Hotel sympathique et serviable - Nous avons passé un bon séjour dans cet hôtel. L'environnement est très calme car très petite ville +++
Peu de restaurants autour et celui de l'hôtel est correcte pour les plats locaux mais nous deconseillons la carte internationale.
Le personnel était très sympathique et serviable: nous avons été changé de chambre pour des soucis logistiques et avons donc été déclassé mais le personnel a réagi vite en nous remboursant immédiatement et en prenant en charge par exemple la nourriture que nous avions dans leurs frigos.
Pas de climatisation mais il fait beaucoup plus frais dans les hauteurs donc pas dérangeant.
Très bon séjour globalement seul bémol le restaurant.
- Kevin (10/5): - Ideal jumping off point for Samarian Gorge. Hotel was very well kept and quiet. George and staff were very friendly and helpful. Restaurant was good. Breakfast was available at 6:45am, with the free van to the gorge starting at 7:30am (before the insane crowds and heat). Would definitely stay here again.
- MICHEL (6/5): Hotel montagnard simple - Hotel montagnard simple dans un cadre très agréable.
Accueil agréable et bonne restauration.
Chambre simple mais literie à revoir, mal de dos assuré, pas cool pour les randonneurs
- P (10/5): Mooi in de bergen - Dit hotelletje lig in de bergen. Als je uit de kloof omhoog komt, kun je aan het einde van de Fygu kloof opgehaald worden. De volgende dag wordt je bij Samaria afgezet. Eten prima, slapen lekker fris.
- DKSmudger (10/5): Great Base To Start The Samaria Gorge Walk - I stayed at the hotel in order to get an early start at the Samaria Gorge walk the following morning as they run a free shuttle bus from the hotel to the head of the gorge from 7.30am.
- Kari (8/5): Hyvä lähtö/paluuhotelli esim Samarian vaellukselle - Lokakuussa tarvitsi lisäpeittoa nukkumiseen,yhden yön perusteella rauhallinen hotelli.Tie vieressä mutta ko yönä ei autonmelu häirinnyt.
