The bed was very comfortable and breakfast was delicious. If it was so foggy, we would have seen the rocks from our room. Front desk was very friendly and quick checkin.

Amazing Hospitality

We stayed 4 nights at Iridanos and couldn't be happier with the experience. Seriously- this place has amazing old world charm with fabulous hospitality!

First, the hotel is lovely with spacious rooms that are richly furnished, comfortable beds, plenty of hot water and balconies that have a view of the beautiful Meteora rocks. Breakfast each morning was extremely generous - boiled eggs, Greek yogurt, cold cut meats, cheeses, pastries, fruit, bread, juice and coffee. The perfect meal to start a long day of hiking.

Most importantly, our host, Niki, went out of her way to make sure we had a great experience. Recommending that we take a hiking tour with Visistmeteora and then loaning us a hiking trail map for our additional two days. She even arraigned to have our bags dropped in downtown for us to pickup for our evening train.

Note - it is located a 10 - 15 minute walk outside of the town center but we enjoyed the extra exercise after eating well each evening.

A stay at Iridanos will definitely ensure a memorable experience in this beautiful place!

Hotel to explore Meteora

We selected the hotel because it list free self parking as an amenity. However, it means you have to park along the road outside the hotel...not within hotel compound.

The hotel itself looks like a multi room mansion that lends it a homely feel. No lounge or lobby. There's tables for dining as you enter and reception desk at the other end (6m-7m away). Check in was prompt.

Breakfast was pretty decent with lots of bread, butter, jam, cheese, boiled egg, orange juice and tea / coffee.

Room itself was a bit cramped for 3 person with limited storage space. Bathroom was small but not the smallest we've been. Kettle to make coffee / tea was appreciated as some hotels we stayed in Greece did not provide this.

It snowed the next morning we were there. This made for a nervous drive up Meteora to see the monasteries. However, it made the scene surreal and great setting since it's near Christmas. There's a restaurant next door but if you want options then need to drive about 1-2 km to Kalampaka town.

Home away from home.

Right at the foot of the road to Meteora. Beautifully appointed comfortable room. Far enough from the bustle and hustle of activity on Main Street Kalambaka so it was quiet. Nicky, our host was warm and accommodating. The feel was homey but the staff was professional. Numerous options for breakfast to satisfy any eater. Easily the finest Accomodation in Meteora, and the same family runs panellilion, also the best restaurant. They will take good care of you.

Charming and immaculate bed and breakfast

Iridanos was most certainly the best place we stayed in Greece. The building is even more charming than in the pictures, and the interior was immaculate. Of note, it is a B&B run by a family, which I think confused some other reviewers on here and Tripadvisor. However, they were very attentive and the breakfast was nothing short of marvelous. It's probably a half mile from the center of Kalambaka, though we just drove around (much easier way to see Meteora). Overall, I very strongly recommend staying here.

THE place to stay to visit Meteora

This is an amazing place. We stay in A LOT of different hotels and this guesthouse is a gem. It is comparable to a 5 star hotel in terms of room presentation and comfort. It is immaculately presented, tastefully decorated with an amazing attention to detail. The view from the balcony of the mountains is amazing. Nikki is a friendly host who made sure we had everything we needed and provided us with a lot of information on the area. If you are planning a visit to Meteora (which should be a must of any visit to Greece) you should definetly consider staying here. There is also a tavern across the road which makes having an authentic Greek meal easy.

Does not meet my expectations

Not a bad one but does not look professional. Was waiting for a long time at check in - you need to ring a bell so the staff could open the door and let you in. It seems the hotel owner lives on the basement level of the hotel, so she was not very responsive for my first two bell ring.
The room is cleaned but not very professional. Dusts at the telephone. I noticed so when I need to call her for some questions, called her three times by dialing 0 as she told me but she didn't pick up the phone at least once.
Also my room was nosiy in the morning since 8am because it's next to kitchen where breakfast is prepared. I got up early so it didn't bother me but worth to mention.
Overall, not a bad one considering the location and room decor, furniture taste, bread at breakfast (tasty) etc., but this home owner hotel does not look like very professional to me. Will not recommend to my friends because not everything is well organized.

Great place to stay at Meteora!

This hotel is in the perfect location to enjoy Meteora. As you enter the main town at the base of the six monasteries, it is located at the start (or end) of the loop. We arrived at the hotel, checked in, and the staff gave some great suggestions for seeing the monasteries. The property is just a few years old, and it was just perfect. Great shower, likened, pillows, mattresses, and breakfast. This is not the town for large hotel chains, and you will be so delighted to enjoy your stay at Iridanos. Oh - and this place is large enough not to feel like a bed and breakfast but too small for a charter bus to stop at. It was great!

Absolutely Delightful!

Beautiful bed and breakfast accommodations. The place is exquisitely furnished; our triple room had a marble fireplace, decorative wood ceiling, lovely decor, and a balcony. Beds and linens were comfy, shower was great! Complimentary family-style breakfast was served in a bright and beautiful dining area. Our table was laden with boiled eggs, various meats & cheeses, both sweet and savory breads, honey, jam, Nutella, spanakopita, cheese rolls, croissants, etc.
The best part of our stay, however, was the lovely family who runs Iridanos. They are experts in hospitality. Due to traveling difficulties, we arrived after midnight. Our host was so gracious despite our late arrival. And his wife was so helpful and friendly the next day with directions and visitor tips. She even told us about a special local Kalambaka festival that we really enjoyed, in addition to visiting the monasteries.
The wifi worked perfectly in our room, as did the a/c.

One of the reasons we chose the Iradanos Guest House was the top rating given by previous guests. We wondered how they could rank it so highly and now after staying there understood why. The hotel is at the base of the cliffs of Meteora and had a great view from sunrise to sunset. The hotel is very new, yet tastefully constructed and decorated to reflect quality and finish of a \"grand\" manor home from a bygone era. Our room had a delightful sitting area in front of the fireplace as well as a spacious balcony. Bathroom fixtures were modern, the linens were crisp the service top notch and breakfast was great.
