Amalia Hotel Olympia

We truly enjoyed our stay at Amalia Hotel. The spaces of the hotel are beautiful, spacious, and reflect the kind of architecture we personally appreciate. Having stayed in other Amalia Hotels across Greece, we knew to expect a certain standard – and this location met it. The atmosphere was simple yet very comfortable, with a pleasant fragrance throughout the premises. The staff, at every level, were exceptionally polite and welcoming. Cleanliness was impeccable across the hotel, and the pool was impressively large. We also appreciated thoughtful touches, such as the care of the gardens and the fact that plants were watered regularly. The buffet was quite good, and breakfast had everything we needed for a satisfying start to the day.

Amalia is a hotel chain in Greece. The hotel in Olympia was certainly once one of the flagships. But that was forty or fifty years ago. Nevertheless, everything is very well maintained. The architecture is spacious and there is a huge, very cold pool. But you can't overlook the fact that the hotel urgently needs a thorough renovation. The staff were extremely friendly. The breakfast corresponds to the quality of the hotel, which is mainly used by coaches from 5 pm. The buses also leave again between 7 and 8, which is when it gets noisy in the corridors. You can walk to the ancient part or drive a few minutes by car and park there free of charge.

This hotel far exceeded our expectations for the price! It was a large hotel, with fantastic facilities. The staff were so welcoming and helpful. The room was very comfortable and the bathroom large and very modern - with excellent shower pressure! Breakfast had a great variety and the pool was also great. This hotel is perfect for families - we travelled with a toddler - and we loved the grassy areas and beautiful trees surrounding the restaurant and pool. The hotel is close to Archaia Olympia and the exploration we did at the ancient site. A short drive to the main streets with lovely little shops and restaurants. Highly recommend this hotel - it was fantastic value for money!

A big old hotel that performs perfectly! I say old because you can find many details from older hotels there is a telephone in the bathroom....This doesn't ruin your stay it just makes you laugh. They had the most comfortable (a pretty ) robes. The reception was friendly and helpful and very efficient. We got a free upgrade without even asking for it. We received a full size bottle of wine complimentary, and we only stayed one night! We didn't try the buffet dinner, but the breakfast buffet had great variety. You could tell by the very polite and professional staff that we met at breakfast ,cleaning the rooms ... that this hotel is run well and their staff takes pride in their work.

We planned a last minute trip to Olympia and this hotel was so so fab. Kind of surprised with how lovely it was, loved the 70’s vibes (done well), friendly staff, comfortable rooms with nice complimentary wine, great breakfast buffet (the dinner buffet for €20 was also great) and the pool was wonderful. Highly recommend.
