  What a lovely gem of a hotel. We were very well looked after by Nikos and his family. The room was nice and clean. The aircon worked well and WiFi was good. Sheets and towels white and clean. Breakfast was simple but adequate. The staff couldn’t do enough. Plenty of parking. Great location. Really felt like i was in a Greek hotel with a traditionalItea vibe. Great value for money.

  Clean, comfortable, well situated

  15 Jun 2025

  We've stayed at the Kalafati before, and thoroughly enjoyed our visit this time, as we did previously. It's well situated very close to the sea, a short walk into Itea itself, or you can hop in the car and spread your wings far and wide from Amfissa, Thermopiles, Mornos Reservoir, Galaxeidi, Delphi of course, Arachova, Antikirra, and Parnassos. Watch out though as there's a tricky little speed camera just as you come out of Galexeidi, where the speed changes to 50km/h with a couple of metres of the camera, as you head towards Itea. It's SO easy to miss. That side of the bay, between Galaxedi and Itea has got very scruffy with bauxite ore tainting everything. This is not a good thing. However, the Kalafati is away at the other end of Itea, on the border between Itea and Kirra which run together along the coast. Breakfasts are good and plentiful, though I was rather surprised to see some members of a Greek coach party wrapping bread, cheese, and ham into their paper napkins and shoving them into their handbags at breakfast, clearly for their lunch later on? There are usually scrambled eggs and little frankfurther sausages (a guilty pleasure), hot teas (green, herbal, black) and coffee, and a continental spread of cheese, ham, feta, cucumber, tomato, croissants, pain au chocolat,, and so on. You can always get tea, hot or iced coffee at the (full bar) throughout the day. Housekeeping is daily, and sheets changed pretty much every other day. Towels daily. There is a lift that services every floor. There was a new AC unit in our room this year, and it was wonderful. There were a couple of days where the heat rose to 37C, and we headed for the hills, but had to come back down eventually. The sea is very clean, and the beaches are all Blue Flag. I wondered about this, as sometimes there's debris in the sea, but it turns out this is from the sea grass beds off shore. We found the water to be clearer in the morning, as by lunchtime a wind gets up most days, and churns the sea up a bit. (still clean, just not so clear).What more to say? Lovely clean hotel with friendly staff and helpful owners (Nikos, and your father, that's you!), well situated for all that this part of mainland Greece has to offer. Good value too. Oh and lots of free parking. Htl Kalafati, Ιδιοκτήτης at Hotel Kalafati, responded to this review Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us your review. I am so grateful to you for keeping you satisfied. We hope to see you again!!

  Κοιτάζοντας μπροστά για το επόμενο έτος ήδη - Looking forward to next year already

  25 May 2024

  Ah, it was so good to return to the Kalafati Hotel, and to say "Γεια σας " once again to the two κύριοι Καλαφάτη! This is an older hotel, but well maintained, and spotlessly clean. The staff work extremely hard, yet are always ready with a smile and a willingness to assist. Daily housekeeping, large and well prepared breakfasts, together marvellous views over the Gulf of Corinth and the north coast of the Peloponnese make this a great place to stay. The Kalafati has easy access to the shore (about 1 minute's walk), and a short walk (5 minutes) along the front will provide you with all the restaurants, supermarkets, 2 good gift shops, and a variety of shops catering to the residents, that you could need. The port is full of interesting boats, and the people who own them. There is a further small boat marina and beaches further round the headland of Itea where you will find that a lot of the locals go to swim. The ancient olive groves stretch from behind Itea up to Delphi and onto Amfissa. They are well worth a stroll through. Take care not to start a fire, the place gets tinder dry and these groves are an irreplaceable piece of Greek history.Whether you prefer to lounge on the beach, take in the history of Delphi - the centre of the Classical world, travel through the mountain uplands of Parnassos with their alpine meadows, pine forests and crisp air, or to amble through the streets of Chrissos, Arachova, or Galaxeidi; the Kalafati is at the centre of it all. We are looking forward to next year already! Htl Kalafati, Ιδιοκτήτης at Hotel Kalafati, responded to this review Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us your review.

  We had a nice stay at the Hotel last weekend. The hotel is located 30 meters from a beautiful beach. The receptionist was very friendly and helpful, and the breakfast buffet was more than adequate. The room was spacious and clean, with a nice balcony offering lovely view to the Corinthian gulf. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway, and as a base to visit and explore Itea and nearby area.

  One night passing through

  24 Nov 2022

  Older, well-maintained hotel, still open during low season. We stayed for 1 night enroute to Delphi, and it seemed there was only 1 other person staying here at the time.Staff was guarded, not very friendly, and they could not initially find the booking I had made on Booking.com- but eventually did.Beds were uncomfortable, but our room had a nice patio and view. Only 1 electric outlet for the entire room, not convenient for charging phones, etc.We had a good dinner at a nearby taverna on the waterfront.Staff at breakfast were unfriendly and not very forthcoming with explaining what was available. My friend was served eggs and meat and cheese and bread and yogurt, but when I said I was gluten free and didn’t eat meat, the man said “if you don’t eat meat or gluten you don’t travel” (!) I replied that I travel all over the world and eat well except for here :) Overall, ok for 1 night passing through, but definitely not recommended for vegans and gluten free folks.
