“A fabulous place to stay, with an incredible view from the patio”

We stayed two nights here while we explored Meteora. Anna Maria and her husband were ideal hosts, full of helpful advice on restaurants, tours and tour local information. We booked a taxi for a sunset view from the top and it was spectacular- there and back for just 25 euros. The next morning, we d… more

We stayed two nights here while we explored Meteora. Anna Maria and her husband were ideal hosts, full of helpful advice on restaurants, tours and tour local information. We booked a taxi for a sunset view from the top and it was spectacular- there and back for just 25 euros. The next morning, we did a full four-hour tour that was again recommended and it met all of our expectations and then some. Dinners at Yamas and Meteora (the family run century old restaurant down the street) were fantastic. And if you stay, do the breakfast at the guest house. Wonderful food, bottomless americanos, cappuccinos, or Greek coffees and well prepared eggs with all of the fixings. We tried almost everything on the menu and loved it.

“Perfect place to stay in Kalambaka”

We stayed 2 nights at Oikia Guesthouse. It was a perfect place to stay. Ana and her husband were very helpful and friendly. The hotel is spotless. Well located at the edge of Kalabaka near Kastraki. Walking distance to shops and restaurants. Highly recommend

“Charming and modern guesthouse with kind hosts, in a quiet area of Kalambaka”

Clean and modern guesthouse. I think there are perhaps 7 guest rooms in total. Our room was big enough and featured a small balcony facing the glorious stone pillars of Meteora.

Clean and modern guesthouse. I think there are perhaps 7 guest rooms in total. Our room was big enough and featured a small balcony facing the glorious stone pillars of Meteora. A communal rooftop patio offers similarly lovely views of Meteora, as well as the town of Kalambaka. We stayed at 3 different hotels over the course of this trip, but I recall that the bed and pillows here were especially comfortable to sleep on. You fill out a form each day informing what you would like for breakfast in the morning, and the hosts make sure it is ready during the timeframe you would like to arrive (8am being the earliest breakfast time). Speaking of the hosts, they were very kind and gracious. It was almost superhuman how they were able to anticipate our needs and arrive to assist in a most timely manner. They were definitely a highlight of our stay here and helped ensure we had a great time, mitigating some transportation issues we had, as well as the rainy weather. We rented a car one day of our stay, and it was easy to park on the street right in front of the hotel. Finally, as for location, there is much online discourse about whether to stay in Kalambaka or Kastraki, and this guesthouse pretty well straddles the border right between the two of them. It is officially in Kalambaka, but in a very quiet area at the top of the hill. It is easy enough to walk down into the center of town, or else through the charming residential neighborhoods en route to the Holy Trinity monastery hiking trail.
