King Agamemnon 23rd Sept - 10th Oct 2019
Lovely family-run hotel service in room excellent cleaned every day and fresh bed linen and towels left if wanted. Pay for a sea view if you can especially room 206 has a very large balcony from which you can relax and enjoy life in Argostoli from seeing the daily ferry to Lixouri and also the large sea cruise liners arriving into port. If you want car hire the hotel can arrange for you with Mercury for very good affordable daily rates. Kefalonia as a Greek island is beautiful and if you want to experience traditional greek life and food then it is the island for you.

The property is in a good location, the staff are friendly and helpful but the accommodation needs modernising. The beds were hard and uncomfortable and the decor really dated.

Nice balcony view. Friendly owner. However, no tv remote, no towels, no breakfast, no staff to check-out in the morning. Hairs all over bed-sheets. Basically a youth-hostel and not a great example of one either.

One night stay.
We stayed for one night before going to the airport. When we arrived the boss gave us a glass of his homemade wine, just what you need after your journey to the hotel. It is a very friendly hotel, the staff make you very welcome, we had stayed before and the receptionist remembered us which was nice. We asked where we could get breakfast nearby and they made breakfast for us - what more could you ask for? A taxi was ordered to take us to the airport. The receptionist carried our bags out to the taxi.

Gutes Hotel in hervorragender Lage
Wir waren für fünf Tage in diesem Hotel. Lage ist hervorragend direkt am Yachthafen wo eine Fähre rüber auf die andere Seite fährt, und 5 Gehminuten vom Zentrum entfernt wo zahlreiche Geschäfte und Restaurants Bars sich befinden. Bushaltestelle war in unmittelbarer Nähe.
Wir sind am Abend spät angereist und dort Empfang uns Wissen Hotelbesitzerin Tochter wir wurden sehr herzlich und empfangen.
Am nächsten Tag war auch der Hotelbesitzer da und gab uns zahlreiche Tipps rund um die Insel.
Frühstück hatten wir nicht gebucht darüber können wir uns nicht äußern.
die Zimmereinrichtung war schlicht und völlig ausreichend für einen kurzen Aufenthalt,Fernseher ,Dusche Föhn,Kühlschrank im Zimmer Klimaanlage und dies alles kostenfrei.
Wir haben jeden Tag frische Handtücher bekommen und das Bett wurde gemacht, allerdings wurde leider nicht durch gelehrt oder durchgewischt das ist das einzigste was wir zu bemängeln haben.
Ansonsten würden wir jederzeit wieder in dieses Hotel gehen.
Das Hotel besitzt leider keinen Pool oder der Sonnenterrasse, ein kleines Minus fallsFamilien dort Urlaub machen.
WLAN war auch kostenfrei im Hotel und am Haupteingang vorne gab es eine kleine Terrasse wo man sich hinsetzen konnte und frühstücken konnte.
man hat sich sicher und aufgehoben gefühlt Im Bad war der Föhn defekt das haben wir bei der Ankunft bemerkt und prompt hat man sich direkt darum gekümmert und ich habe einen Ersatz Föhn erhaltene der Service war wirklich top.

Netter Gastgeber, unhygienisches Zimmer
Auch wenn es nur ein Aufenthalt für eine Nacht war Und auf Komfort und Luxus verzichtet werden kann, darf man ein sauberes Zimmer erwarten. Leider war dies nicht der Fall. Scheinbar würde dort seit Wochen, wenn nicht sogar seit Monaten nicht richtig geputzt. Bestes Beispiel der Duschkopf, der vor Kalk schon gebrochen war und kaum noch Wasser spendete. Zudem hat das Zimmer stark nach zigarettenqualm gerochen. Gerade als Nichtraucher besonders unangenehm. Leider keine Empfehlung, auch nicht wenn man nur eine Nacht in Argostoli verbringen möchte. Schade!
