    We really enjoyed our stay at Olivia Guest House and consider it as a “value for money” place to stay. The apartment is in a very privileged location in the old town city center in a quiet place away from streets confusion, but within walking...

    My daughters loved having YouTube and Netflix. We loved the view, the atmosphere and being at the old town centre, without noise and confusion of the other streets. The welcome things, jam and fruits, were very nice.

    War alles super, die Wohnung war sehr sauber und alles organisiert. Wir hatten z.B. genug Handtücher und auch die Küche war gut ausgestattet. Die Lage für Korfu Stadt ist top, man ist eigentlich mittendrin, dennoch ist es nachts ruhig. Paar Meter...

The contemporary furnishings and tasteful decor provide a serene backdrop to your Grecian adventure. The space is perfectly suited to accommodate couples and families, offering a harmonious blend of modernity and homely comfort. The crown jewel of Olivia Guest House is its unobstructed, picturesque view of the historic New Fortress of Corfu. As you sip your morning coffee on the balcony, the sun gently illuminates the ancient stones of the fortress, transporting you back in time, whilst the city below awakens to the new day. The proximity to Corfu’s vibrant city center means you are never far from the hustle and bustle. A short stroll will lead you to a plethora of quaint shops, enticing eateries, and the enduring beauty of Corfu’s old town. Discover the sights and sounds of Corfu by day, and retreat to the peaceful embrace of Olivia Guest House as the city lights twinkle beneath the fortress at night. The picturesque setting of the apartment is also a dream for photography enthusiasts, capturing the essence of Corfu’s rich history juxtaposed with modern elegance. At Olivia Guest House, experience the essence of Greek hospitality wrapped in modern luxury, a stone's throw away from the lively ambiance of Corfu’s city center. Your enchanting escape awaits.
Konstantinos, a native of Corfu, is a mechanical engineer with a deep appreciation for nature. The abundance of olive trees on the island inspired him to name his house Olivia. He is a sociable and courteous individual who enjoys connecting with new people and immersing himself in diverse cultures.
The Old Town of Corfu stands out as a unique example in Greece, preserving its historical urban layout and buildings from the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries in nearly pristine condition. This architectural heritage showcases the distinctive historical circumstances that shaped its cultural and structural character. Both the Old Town and its two forts have earned the prestigious designation of UNESCO World Heritage Monuments. This recognition is supported by a "Statement of Outstanding Universal Value," of which excerpts are provided below: "The ensemble of fortifications and the Old Town of Corfu occupies a strategic position at the entrance to the Adriatic Sea. Its origins trace back to the 8th century BC, extending through the Byzantine era, and subsequently experiencing diverse influences from various cultures and their ideologies [...] It has, at various times, served as the front line of defense for the Venetian maritime empire against Ottoman forces. Corfu boasts a well-crafted example of fortification engineering, conceived by the architect Sanmicheli, and demonstrated its effectiveness in practical defense. The island maintains a distinctive identity evident in its fortification system and its collection of neoclassical buildings. As a result, it can be ranked alongside other significant fortified port cities in the Mediterranean." Furthermore, the Old Town of Corfu enjoys proximity to supermarkets, pharmacies, cafes, restaurants and shops. You can reach the Old Town of Corfu with the blue bus line no 15 either from the airport or the port. You should stop at San Rocco square if you are coming from the airport or at Ionion Hotel if you are coming from the port. Then there is some walking distance to the apartment.
