4 star hotels in Kalamata

The exterior, the food and the service was great. I would wish for a proper espresso machine instead of the nespresso. The room was a bit old. Ventilation on the bathroom did not work. The worst part was the bed. It was extremely soft, and was creaking so much, we woke up when turning in the sleep. What was not acceptable: The pool gutter is made of worn out plastic. I stepped on it, and it broke...

Excellent location. All that you want in a hotel .. and more. Access to private beach. Don't care for salty (or rough) water? Awesome, plus-size pool with full pool-side service. Enjoy a Mai Tai or a glass of wine with fruit. More amenities (spa, gym, etc. that we didn't get the chance to enjoy).

Very dated and tired hotel with lots of things broken or looking past their best. There is no shower curtain or screen so the bathroom floods. Breakfast is chaotic with fake orange juice and weak coffee. The beach is lovely and the fact it's right by the hotel is a good selling point. The pool area is nice but looks like it will be busy in high season. Overall, not a 4 star, definitely 3.

Rooms are very dated, it is astonishing that the rooms are lacking shower curtains, and the bed creaks horribly with every move. If you have the option and the budget and you are looking for a decent room, simply pick something else. Not enough tables for breakfast or food, be prepared for a modern day hunger games. Additionally, food quality is sub-par. Customers of the hotel have the habit of placing...

We had a 7 day stay in Grecotel Filoxenia with my family in 2 connecting rooms. Here are the pros and cons: Pros: Lovely welcoming and really great people in the reception that makes you feel welcomed. Great location. Super close to Kalamata town. There are busses too but driving is less than 10 minutes. Plenty of parking in the hotel 24/7. Great crowd. Other people were mostly families and really...

This hotel has huge potential if they renovate and improve their F&B act. The location is outstanding - right next to Kalamata and in a private beach where the waters are crystal clear. They need to invest to upgrade their rooms and it can become a wonderful resort.

The overall resort was nice, breakfast was tasty, so was the dinner, the rooms are spacious and it didn't feel cramped with 4 people. However, the room was dirty; random blue hairs in the sink, the bedsheets were stained, so was the blankets, the beds were creaky, and also the railing on the upper floor was broken. The bathtub didn't have a curtain or glass so showering made the whole bathroom wet...

Scenic views, cleanliness and comfort made my day better. A good Relaxing atmosphere and good staff too. 😊

The hotel is nice but needs some reno. The carpets in the main areas are pulling up. The room was large and bathroom was decently sized. The shower has a half piece of glass and no curtain so water gets all over the floor making it an unsafe situation. The balcony was nice looking out over the ocean. The breakfast buffett had many options. I would stay again but not for the same price. Plenty other...

Customer service was top notch! Our group lost our luggage thanks to Sky Express and Paris at the front desk went above and beyond to locate and have it delivered. The pool is large, the rooms are clean and the breakfast has a lot of options. It helps that the beach is literally across the street.

What a wonderful place! Great staff! Clean, good prices, nice food and the most important: What a great location to be in kalamata.

Friendly staff, clean and organized place, accessible beach with strollers and kid friendly. Good coffee and overall a nice experience.

The hotel is situated at a beautiful location just opposite of the beach. Amazing view, amazing cleanliness and such a great area inside and outside the hotel. The staff always ready to help you and always with a smile. Very nice rooms and an excellent breakfast.

Rooms are fine, nothing special but good soundproofing and AC. Good breakfast buffet from 7.30 to 10.30, pool suitable for kids (we have a 3yr old) and nice little private beach with rocks. Receptionists were always very kind and available to call us taxis anytime we needed (the hotel is located at approx 12-15€ taxi ride from Kalamata). The hotel is quite isolated, but with a car location is good...

The Akti Taygetos Resort is located a 20-minute drive from Kalamata. You can also take a taxi to get there, but renting a car is recommended for easier travel around the area. I highly recommend this secluded hotel, which offers access to a pool with a lifeguard and a very quiet private beach. The hotel also features a breakfast, a restaurant, and a beach bar by the sea. However, the breakfast could...

While you are swimming, you can see the fishes in different size and kind.

Nice place for vacation. It has private beach, a pool and spa. The dinner buffet needs an improvement.

If you’re looking for a quaint romantic experience, this place is not for you. It caters to tour groups who arrive in large motor coaches. As a result, breakfast is a crowded and rather chaotic affair. As school seemed to be on break, a large number of families with little kids were out and about. However, it is located nicely near the beach and the grounds are lovely. I don’t fault them for their...

Good value if under $120. Great views and breakfast buffet! On the negative side, it’s way up on a hill, roads not easily walkable and the road surface very rough for most small cars. The walk to the lobby from parking lot is way too steep for older people or people with a disability. It needs a remodel imo. Large rooms, tiny tv, quiet surroundings. Free parking.

Amazing staff go a long way and without them this hotel would get a worse review. The hotel needs some love and maintenance to brighten it up. We had dinner in an empty restaurant (very average) and it just felt...odd! The view from anywhere is simply beautiful, postcard pretty. Sadly the rooms are dark with no coffee/tea facilities or any extras, small outdated TV's with no international/sky available...

Cannot describe how mush i felt like this was too much for me. I felt real luxury every time i set foot here, rooms were amazing and were really comfortable. If i ever come back to kalamata i will definitely consider this place again.

Hotel with an amazing view and great potential. The rooms were well lit with big balconies to enjoy your coffee. The table in our room looked cheap though and one of the legs was broken. Our toilet flush was also broken. When asked for an iron we were given one which was full of scale and didn’t look great. With regards to its breakfast it had an adequate variety but I found that it was not refilled...

Breathtaking view! Staff was so polite and helpful. The room was very spacious and clean. I'll definitely visit again.

Beautiful views from hotel rooms, very warm welcome at the reception, super breakfast

Hospitality, clean nice breakfast. Must stay

Good hotel with SPA..The staff speak english so its very easy ..Clean and very nice!

Friendly, comfortable with nice Kalamata Port view

Great customer service and a high-end atmosphere all around. The hotel is in a very good location and has a restaurant inside but there is a lot of things to do around. The views from the balcony are quite good as well!

Location great close to centre of Kalamata. Staff very helpful. Room spotlessly clean beds exceptionally comfortable with fabulous bathroom /wet room. Breakfast brilliant caters for everyone. Had two visits to the spa again a wonderful experience would highly recommend. Negatives - parking on road front of hotel limited spaces. Little traffic noise early morning but all in all a very pleasant and comfortable...

Weak internet, strange shower. Can be a bit noisy at times, usually when you want to sleep. You can hear your neighbors through the vents. Otherwise, clean and comfortable.

Beautiful and very special.nice staff

We had a wonderful stay at Villa Vager Mani, The room was very nice and clean, with a private terras and an excuisite sea view on Kalamata, the hosts make sure you have everything you need during your stay. Breakfast is also served on your private Terras and The area is very quite so perfect for people who want to rest and charge up their batteries. If we are in the area again i would definitely book...

Beautiful hotel and atmosphere - great breakfast - friendly yet professional hosts. Highly recommended!

Great place excellent hosts. The character of the establishment is unique with each room decorated in elegant furnishings. Hosts Nicolas and Marina prepare hand made marmalade and other local delicacies and attend each guest from their arrival. Highly recommended.

Fantastic room for a family of four . Near to beach , and great view from the roof!

Visited roof bar. Very nice non alcoholic cocktails. Have to try the spicy one.

Fantastic room for a family of four. Great location close to the beach front. Friendly staff and great customer service. Will definitely visit again.

first let me say , THANK YOU TO ALL AT THE MESSINIAN BAY HOTEL. YOU ARE ALL OUTSTANDING, No matter which department you are, you all did a great job. Your hotel staff were there any time to help out . We stayed for 10 days and each day was a plaesure from breakfast to bed time. The service was quick, cheerful, and the food great. Our room was cosy, the water hot , just the shower on the the tight...

The hotel is perfectly sited with seawiew from all the rooms. The rooms are nicely decoreted, and the cleaning was perfect. New towels every day. The breakfast was nice with eggs, bacon warity of cheeses and some fruits. The staff was very nice and helpfull. The sunset was magic from the balcony. There is a few restaurants in walking distence from the hotel. I would recomend this hotel, maybe we...

Pleasant room, with balcony overlooking the sea. Ate there that evening, and left with leftovers. Coffee is available, for purchase through tout the night at the lobby bar..we were off schedule with sleep! Lovely breakfast, with numerous choices. Nice pool. Lower deck area near the sea, and another short flight of stairs to a cozy narrow beach area. Beach is stony, no sand, so I kept my sandals...

We stayed in Messinian Bay for 5 nights in August 2023. Three families with 4 kids age 5-10 years old. The hotel is situated right by the sea, there's a private beach in front. Pool is very nice. Food is almost excellent, not very big variety but whatever we ate was fabulous. Breakfast ok. Rooms are comfortable. If I had to ask for something more, would be a bigger bed and a nicer mattress. Staff...

Excellent location on the sea with spacious rooms, clean and service from the staff in all infrastructures (reception, bar, restaurant, pool, beach). Excellent breakfast but also a restaurant worth trying. We will definitely go again!!

Clean and well maintained hotel with fantastic service. Spent 3 days with my family there and everybody made us feel so comfortable. Everyone is so kind and helpful. Always with a smile, always fantastic! Keep up the great job you are doing!

Lovely apartment very well presented, we had a view of the sea, even had a washer which was a big bonus. There is a swimming pool and also jacuzzi, the owner Spyros is a top guy and very helpful. Had an amazing time and can’t wait to return. There is also a local shop nearby which has a good selection of everything you could ever need very handy.

Everything was great!!! The nicest vacation!! The. nicest place with the best hospitality! Great view, everything clean, great decoration and great people! I highly recommend! It is a great summer and winter destination!

Best Place to be in Verga. The owner and his girlfriend are very kind and helpful The rooms are perfectly clean and comfortable The location and view just stunning !!!

Spiros and Maria are excellent hosts. They will make you feel like family while staying with them in their super clean suites with a jaw dropping view of the entire messinian gulf. Spiros will give you excellent recommendations on places to eat and sites to visit while visiting Kalamata. Maria makes you feel great with her specialty teas and coffees that will wow you every time. Overall this super...

You can’t imagine a better place to stay if you are in Kalamata! The view from the balcony is priceless. Well-equipped, aesthetic, light and clean apartments! Not to mention the ideal location that is within an easy reach to a non-crowded part of the beach where you can enjoy the warm sea all through the year. And the hosts are like good friends, I just spent some amazing time with such great and helpful...

Amazing stay! Beautiful rooms, amazing views with private pool, great hospitality. Top location, not crowded and just a few minutes to the beach and the supermarket. Will definitely come back. Couldn't wish for a more lovable place to stay in Kalamata. All best.

Clean and well taken care of. Convenient location. Excellent service by the friendly staff. Highly recommended.

Our friends introduced us to this beautiful little hotel, and we are delighted they did. Such an amazing find. From check in to departure the level Of service is first class. Everyone we encountered, from the delightful housekeeper who prepared our room so beautifully, to the reception staff, waiting staff and Zoe (manager), went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. We have travelled...

Good hotel with dedicated parking space close to city centre. We received free upgrade to junior suite (in January). Decent breakfast, very professional and welcoming staff helping you with everything. Rooms are in good condition, bathrobes, slippers etc are provided. Comfortable bed and pillows. The only downside was traffic noise from the busy street, but so far every hotel in Greece had bad soundproofing

We have just spent a weekend in this perfect boutique, 28 bedded hotel. Having stayed there two years ago, when it first opened. It’s a small hotel that punches way above its weight. The Garden City is located 5 minutes from the sea front and an easy stroll into the pretty old town. There is a plethora of coffee shops and taverns close by. The hotel is pristinely clean, light and airy. Off street...

Such a nice little stay in Kalamata! The staff was the highlight, absolutely above and beyond, we were greeted at every entrance and they were very attentive and helpful with anything we needed, they even gifted us some cookies and olive oil for Christmas! It’s centrally located, less than a 10 min walk to the port and beach, and about 15 min to the city center. The rooms are clean and the bed is comfy...

What an INCREDIBLE hotel! The hospitality is unmatched and the food is delectable! Everything they serve for breakfast is from local vendors, and it tastes incredible. The rooms are clean and well supplied with essentials. The location is about a 25 min walk to city center and right on the beach. Most importantly, the hotel staff is warm snd welcoming. They were so kind during our stay and attended...

A very nice hotel, but a bit disappointing, we arrived at the hotel in the afternoon and asked before paying if there was a spa in the hotel, they told us there was a hot pool and a spa that closed in about two hours, we were happy because it was exactly what we wanted after a day of riding a motorcycle. After the payment, when we asked where the spa was, they explained to us that every service in...

Very fine resort with access to the beach, excellent restaurant. Secure, private, quiet, away from city center. To go anywhere you need to walk or have a car.

Lovely venue I got talking to the gardener. What a lovely chap . Randomly had a very long conversation. Later on in the afternoon he was still working there. I asked him if he was not tired. He was elderly type gentleman. Apparently I found out it was the owner. What a humble person.

The name is a bit misleading. This accommodation is more like a luxury apartment resort with five star amenities. The rooms are cleaned well and the beds are comfortable. The breakfast buffet is fine, just what you can expect from an included breakfast. The location of the hotel is a bit far from the city centre, but for the money you can't complain. The staff was very helpful and extremely friendly...

A luxurious hotel with amazing rooms, private pool and very friendly staff. The breakfast menu is copious , fresh and delicious. The outdoor pool offers all the best amenities and allows you to enjoy and relax while sipping a glass of wine. Highly recommended if you are in the area!

Elysian hotel will always have a special place in my heart. My husband and I stayed at the hotel for 2 nights after a car accident before we could board our flight home. We were miserable both physically and emotionally when we arrived. In a moment of crisis, Elysian provided more than just a room; they offered solace and support. From the caring staff to their prompt assistance, every interaction...

Stayed 2 nights. Hotel is very spacious and looks nice. The beach is just across the front road. Facilities includes a pool and lounge bar. There was a bathtub. But the hotel’s fixtures are outdated and old. The hairdryer becomes too hot to hot after using it for a minute, i had to use a towel to hold it. The bed was two bed put together so there was a groove in between, bed was uncomfortable and...

My family and I stayed here for a week and it was an amazing place. The morning buffet was always well presented and generous portions. The staff were always very helpful, especially Christina on the front desk who organised us for restaurant suggestions, several taxis and a car hire when no other service providers were able to on short notice. The rooms were exactly what we needed. If I ever have...

Stunning view, amazing staff, excellent breakfast. One note: the vegan savoury options were rather limited and most of the bread selection had milk in it, but there were still plenty of vegan options. Similarly, the vegan options were not clearly marked and had to ask or simply rely on my knowledge on the local food. But everything was great :)

I don't know about the rooms as I haven't rented here. Hiwever, I was told it's a very luxurious hotel, but even tho it was really nice, I've been in hotels that felt way more luxury than this one. The service was what I'd rate perfect.

Very nice location and friendly staff. The food was also good at the restaurant and very decent prices. Nice pool, and right by the sea.

Dear reader, I stayed at the Horizon Blu in July 2024. Long story short: My experience did not communicate 5 star hotel... it was...ok. CONS: • If you're traveling with a child and ask for a smaller third bed, those mattresses then are super hard. Pillows aren't the most comfortable as well. • The description "luxury toiletries" couldn't be further from the truth. The bath and body shower gels will...
