Hotel Kalafati

"Ah, it was so good to return to the Kalafati Hotel, and to say "Γεια σας " once again to the two κύριοι Καλαφάτη! This is an older hotel, but well maintained, and spotlessly clean. The staff work extremely hard, yet are always ready with a smile and a willingness to assist. Daily housekeeping, large and well prepared breakfasts, together marvellous views over the Gulf of Corinth and the north coast of the Peloponnese make this a great place to stay. The Kalafati has easy access to the shore (about 1 minute's walk), and a short walk (5 minutes) along the front will provide you with all the restaurants, supermarkets, 2 good gift shops, and a variety of shops catering to the residents, that you could need. The port is full of interesting boats, and the people who own them. There is a further small boat marina and beaches further round the headland of Itea where you will find that a lot of the locals go to swim. The ancient olive groves stretch from behind Itea up to Delphi and onto Amfissa. They are well worth a stroll through. Take care not to start a fire, the place gets tinder dry and these groves are an irreplaceable piece of Greek history. Whether you prefer to lounge on the beach, take in the history of Delphi - the centre of the Classical world, travel through the mountain uplands of Parnassos with their alpine meadows, pine forests and crisp air, or to amble through the streets of Chrissos, Arachova, or Galaxeidi; the Kalafati is at the centre of it all. We are looking forward to next year already!"

"In this particular, let's call it "hotel", I had the most horrible stay of my life. Because there are endless things I want to write, but to avoid getting bored, long story short, the owner HID THE KEYS and pretended to be missing, leaving us OUTSIDE THE ROOM, which we had paid for, for about 2 and a half hours on the night of Saturday 6/9. Inside the room there were valuables to which we did not have access. In fact, an item of low value was removed, but with my personal data on it! He called the police (which I obviously called too) to report various falsehoods simply because we burned out the air conditioner as he claims above. Because vacations are an opportunity for peace of mind, avoid this place and its "people" by all means so that they do not ruin your vacation as happened to us and even if it is cheaper. It also ruined our mood on Saturday night, since the shock was such that we didn't go out again until check out, fearing that we wouldn't be able to get back into something we had paid for, I repeat. It really isn't worth operating and leaving money to guys who discredit the industry and their island so badly. As for the rooms, they are old, with dirty walls and dangerous spots (bare cables), while the sea view they sold us is the one you'll see in the photo. I'm ashamed that I spent two nights there."
