An older Olympia Hotel that has been neatened and tidied up to become a quality budget option. No frills but freshly painted and modernised with nice bedding and air con. Owners are super helpful and friendly. Nice breakfast thrown in, a few minutes walk to the Olympia Site, and its a great choice.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Damiano the host gave great advise on the local area to explore and place to eat. Good breakfast with decent options. Room clean and spacious, a bit cold but A/C with warm air fixed the problem. Only thing I would improve is plumbing (sometimes flush was getting stuck, very loud bathroom extractor and slow drains in the sink and shower) and would appreciate kettle in the room for making herbal tea before bed. Otherwise good stay and would recommend.

There aren't a lot of choices in Olympia. This place is a 2 to 3 star hotel in a really good location. The beds are comfortable and the rooms are clean. AC and Wifi work well. The only issue was that we arrived a bit early and couldn't check into our room. They were ok with us leaving our bags but, there wasn't a secure room to place our bags. We were told to leave them by the front desk but, the front desk wasn't staff so, anybody could come by and take your bags. To be fair, the hotel is right next to the police station so, I was probably being a bit too cautious. Anyway, it all worked out. We went site seeing and came back later to check in and the bags were there. :)

I would give 6 stars for the staff and service. The manager, Damien, was super friendly and helpful. Despite that we checked in at the midnight, he greeted us warmly and ushered us to our room, explaining everything thoroughly. He also suggested us how to explore Olympia and vicinity, which helped us a great deal. The room was clean, quiet, and spacious. Location was perfect too with just a few minutes walk to the museums and archeological site. Highly recommend this hotel to anyone staying in Olympia.

When we tried to check in they didn’t have our reservation on the list. Luckily the manager was able to look us up and verified our reservation made via Expedia. Hotel is in an exceptionally convenient area—short walk to the site and museums and just one street up from the shopping area. The only issues we had were trying to get the room cool (took several hours), there is no hair dryer and the mini fridge is in a spot without a plug so we couldn’t use it. Staff are amazing and you can’t beat the location.

Let me say at the outset that there is nothing “wrong” with the property, it just doesn’t bear any resemblance to the 9.4 rating quoted by Expedia at the time of our booking. The lounge area is ok and the breakfast was fine but the whole place has more of a hostel feel to it than a guesthouse. Our bedroom was very basic and, whilst it did have the advertised bath, neither that nor the sink had a plug. We mentioned it to the owner and he just said “you’ll have to be careful”. The room also didn’t have tea / coffee making facilities and was very dated. So, as i say, nothing “wrong” per se, just lower your expectations based on the rating. Ps we were also shown a room that had been modernised but, to be frank, it was hard to tell the difference. And don‘t try to check in early, after driving for 3 hours we hoped that we would be ok arriving at 2:30 but were told to come back after 3

He took about 10 minutes is extremely useful information about tithe town and the ancient site.

A good room for a overnight stay. Good air conditioning. Bathroom shower very tight fit and a shower curtain that will touch you as you shower, water floods the bathroom. The owner will not accomodate early check in. The owner invited us to enjoy the common area at our leisure and we did so with a wine we had from the previous night to be told the area is a bar, which was not only awkward but ruined our evening. There are polite ways to speak to guests of your hotel, nothing should be too much trouble, but selling cocktails at the bar instead of looking after your guests appears to be the priority.

We stayed in the junior suite which was basically the whole of the roof area with great views.
Very clean, had everything we needed, not very soundproof so could hear traffic noise although it much traffic but there were dogs barking from time to time would recommend ear plugs at night if you’re a light sleeper.

Loved this guesthouse! The owner was incredibly friendly and helpful. I told him I would be seeing the ruins the next day and he suggested I leave my car parked in front of the hotel and walk to the site. So glad I did! Was able to leave my belongings in the car as it’s right next to the police station. The site was just a brief walk away. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The bed was SO comfy. I just melted into it after such a long drive! Had a delicious breakfast the next morning! If you are planning a stop in Olympia, stay here. You won’t regret it! Price is great, especially for what you get!

What a gem!!!

This hotel was full of surprises! We stayed in the Penthouse, at the top of the hotel. We were not expecting much, as the price was extremely reasonable. Under $100 a night!! When he showed us our room, we could not believe not believe what we had! A huge deck that looked out over the town, with a double hammock for 2, a dining table and chairs, and 2 sunbeds. The room was spacious with a kitchen, a bathroom with a bathtub, and a very comfortable bed. There was also a living room section with beautiful furniture. The owner is extremely friendly and welcoming, and could charge 3 times what he is charging for this room! We will definitely stay here again. In addition, you are only a 5 minute walk from the ancient grounds of Olympia, and the fantastic little museum of Archimedes. Well worth the visit!

Exceeded my expectations

I was pleasantly surprised at this little find. The owner greeted us personally at the door and even carried our bags. The hotel was modern and comfortable. Had a little community space downstairs that would be great for chatting with other travelers. The location couldn't have been better. We parked on the street and walked to everything.

The host, Damiano, is very helpful and engaging, and keen to point out its his house for you the guest so make yourself at home. If you asking about the quote in the breakfast lounge he may tell you his life changing story. Breakfast was perfect and Olympia site10 minutes walk from guest house. His tip to visit the beach at kalogria, was great, definitly the best beach in Peloponnese; 4 mile of golden sand and perfect condition for swimming, thanks Damiano

Perfect stay for exploring Olympia

Had a really excellent stay here in room #8, the suite at the top of the hotel. From check-in with Damiano and all the helpful information he provided (as well as being friendly and funny) to breakfast, and the guestroom with its own private rooftop terrace, crisp linens and equipped kitchen, and its proximity to the Olympia archaeological site, everything about this was perfect! Glad we spent two nights here instead of just one and took Damiano's advice to visit the archaeological site and museums in the afternoon, once all the day-trippers have left for the day.

Would definitely return and book room #8!

This was a lovely little guest house in Olympia which offered excellent value for money. Our room was very nice and the bed comfortable. Our host Damiano was charming and very helpful. The breakfast was excellent. There was also a common room which was a great place to sit and read through the heat of the afternoon, before we went out again. We spent time at the site of Olympia (easily accessible from hotel) but also good walk down to river Alpheios and then up Mt (?) Drouvas. We also appreciated the Archimedes Museum. An exceptionally pleasant few days in Olympia, all enhanced by our stay at the Leonidaion.

Great place and location especially for the price

Friendly and helpful welcome, even got to choose our room! The room was large with a balcony, though the bathroom was small. Bed comfortable. Breakfast was limited but what was there was good and there was plenty of it.

The room itself was tired, but for the price and location it was excellent.

A great surprise. Just what we needed.

We had a rough drive and a late check in but it all went very smoothly. Damianos met us and treated us like family. We had a great breakfast the next morning and really enjoyed our stay. A real gem.

Location is great. walking distance from the archeological site. you also have access to a pool from another hotel.

However for some reason the area is somewhat noisy. I don't know if we were unlucky or something. But had trouble to get some sleep before 1h30 am because of people outside which lasted for quite some time as well as others having some fun with their cars or motorcycle.

in the morning it started again early. overall I'm leaving really exhausted Ó╭╮Ò

Terrible stay

We spent 13 nights in Greece and this was the only bad night we had--all others were wonderful. This establishment would definitely not be a 3 star hotel in the US. The breakfast/community area was nice and the owner was pleasant so we were very surprised at the condition of our room. There is no closet or armoire for clothes--just a bar. There was a cigarette burn in the window curtain. Absolutely no decoration on any walls. Something unsightly was hanging in the shower. I'm a petite person and could easily feel the springs in the very thin mattress. The Leonidaion really should be categorized as a class 2 hotel or even a hostel. I am generally a very positive person and all my other reviews of other hotels are very positive. This place was a huge disappointment.
