Odysseus Palace — Hotel in Argostoli Municipality

I would highly recommend against staying here. They advertise as having air conditioning but control it and only turn it on for a few hours in the morning. When we arrived our room was 40 degrees inside and when we turned the air conditioning on it just blew warm air. The refrigerator was not turned on so we had to go buy ice to keep our groceries cold. The room was so hot we couldn’t sleep, even with the patio doors open. We tried to book another accommodation but it was such a busy week we could not find anything in our price range on the whole island. |We asked the owner about the air conditioning and he said he turns the air conditioning off overnight because he is waiting for a part to come from Italy.

We stayed at Odysseus Palace and had a great experience.

My two sons and I stayed here in April 2016 and had a wonderful visit. We stayed in a suite accessed by its own staircase on the second floor and the place was immaculate with a little kitchen that allowed us to prepare our own breakfast. The hotel is well located, just steps from the port with an excellent artopoleio (bakery) next door.||||We had dinner in the restaurant where we met Andreas, the owner of the hotel, who regaled us with stories from his years in New York City. We were served a perfectly delicious pizza and salad and went to bed and slept soundly in our peaceful room.||||Andreas and his wife are incredibly welcoming and warm and we heartily recommend this hotel for your next...
