Lock in a great price for Hotel Pelops – rated 8.9 by recent guests!

to get started.

Nice sized room, although the shower is a bit small. Good location with on-street parking.

Rockstardar, United States of America

Great breakfast, clean facilities, great deck to enjoy. Also in a great location to the archeological site and the city center.

Chase, United States of America

This hotel is a delightful place to stay. The exterior seems like a quaint hotel and inside the room seems completely redone and modern with every comfort you might want. The breakfast buffet was very large again it seemed geared to cover any breakfast desire any traveler might want. The hotel is just off the Main Street in Olympia but very quiet. It is just a walk up Main Street to the museum and archeological site as well as good restaurants. I found myself wishing we were staying an extra day to just be able to sit and read the books they have in the hotel on Olympia, the Olympic Games etc

Karen, United States of America

Staff would great. Excellent breakfast with a lot of choices.management went out of their way to check on a restaurant to see if it is open for us and treated us like family we played cards in the dining room in the evenings.

Garth, United States of America

Great location and very friendly and personable hosts.

Matthew, New Zealand

The room was very spacious with a large balcony. Breakfast was very good and the staff were very friendly and provided much information of the area.

Richard, United States of America

Nice spacious rooms and bathroom, soarkly clean, extremly comfortable bed, central position in Olympia and last but not least petfect hosts!

Ema, Serbia

Great location and value. This is the second time I have stayed here and the owner is very friendly and helpful. I recommend this place.

Daniel, Philippines

The staff was truly exceptional. The lady at check-in made sure we had a spot to park right in front of the door, gave us a map of town and explained how to get everywhere we would want to go. She told us about a swimming pool we could use in the area, and she recommended what turned out to be the best dining experience my wife & I had during our entire 2-week driving trip throughout Greece. The location of the hotel was excellent, and breakfast was great. This place would also be a great option for tour groups because of the large breakfast area, lots of board games & books available, and a large parking area less than 1 block away. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone, and we would gladly stay here again.

Eric, United States of America

The hotel was immaculately clean and decorated in a comfortable light, airy way. The staff and family owners were gracious, informative and helpful. We felt welcome and valued. The breakfast was fresh, various choices, something for everyone. Parking was easy and the hotel is the most convenient for Olympia sightseeing. Rooms and beds, bathrooms comfortable and plenty of room- biggest we have seen in Greece so far for our family of four. If you are going to sightsee in Olympia this is the choice to make for your accomadation. You can book on the hotel website also.

“Perfect in every way!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Family with young children
- • Quadruple Room
- • Stayed 1 night
We had booked a family room and I was expecting a room with 4 twin beds. I was pleasantly surprised to be given a two bedroom suite with a shared bath. The main bedroom had a large comfortable bed and a balcony where we could sit and have our morning tea. The second bedroom had two twin beds and a large window. Both rooms were air conditioned independently but the AC was off since the weather was cool when we were there. The bath is very well detailed with marble counters and was very clean. Water pressure was great and there was plenty of hot water for all four of us. We had breakfast at the hotel and were very happy with the spread put out for guests. Both our kids had hot chocolate and our older son had a great time talking to Mr Theordore (the owner) about the Olympic torches on display in the dining room. Make sure you ask about those! Parking was not a problem at all and we were able to park right by the front entrance. A big plus was that the Pelops also had a kettle and supplies for tea and coffee in the bedroom! This was the only time we saw that in a hotel in Greece and it was really nice being able to make our own tea and coffee when we woke up. The host had plenty of suggestions for what to do in town and was always available for questions. The location is not right next to the Archaeological site which we preferred since the street was very quiet and peaceful at night. The details in the hotel are really lovely with charming ink drawings in the bedrooms, antiques scattered throughout and a comfortable layout in the dining room including sofas and coffee tables. We only wish that we could have stayed longer than the single night we had planned in Olympia.

“Perfect small hotel for a visit to Ancient Olympia”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Double Room
- • Stayed 2 nights
No espresso coffee at breakfast but the strong American-style filter coffee was ok, and then we popped to one of the local cafes for an espresso before hitting the site. So it wasn't a big deal.
Excellent small hotel with a light and airy feel. Comfortable beds, quiet aircon, spacious room and bathroom, good wifi. Balcony was cool and shaded in the morning. Continental buffet breakfast was good quality with lots of choice. I particularly liked the creamy yoghurt, homemade marmalade and freshly squeezed orange juice. The owner provided useful information at check in. The hotel is well located; the main street and cafes are about a minute away by foot, and the museum is a short walk (5 or so minutes), then a couple more minutes to the archaeological site. We visited the museum in the late afternoon/evening and the site the next morning, which meant we avoided the worst of the heat and the tour groups.

Friendly and competent advising on the reception. We liked the suggestions what to visit with our limited time frame. Tastely equipped rooms and public areas of the hotel. Very clean and cosy. Good internet access. Quiet place with safe public parking, but all touristic hotspots in walking distance.
