Nafplia Palace Hotel & Villas

I thought I traveled back in time, in the seventies to be more accurate. Some 40 years ago this hotel would have been THE place to stay. Today, it’s just another hotel. Needs renovation asap! Breakfast is quite good. The view is breathtaking and mesmerizing. There is no wi-fi!!! Guys, it’s the 2017!!!

To echo other reviews, this hotel must have been something back in its prime. Needs a little TLC and it would be something special again. The breakfast is fine: it's nothing special, but there are a variety of options. My two main gripes are the lack of wifi accessibility, even in the lobby, and that the staff serviced our room multiple times even though we had do not disturb showing.

This is an older hotel that is starting to show its age. However, the views are spectacular. Located in the acropolis area you have to take an elevator to get to the hotel. We had a room that looked out on the harbor with a spacious balcony with the most amazing view. In fact, we grabbed some things for dinner in town and had dinner with a bottle of wine on our balcony. The rooms are quite dated and the toilet in our room barely flushed and took 20 mins before you could flush it again.

Stayed here for a week, room & breakfast. Fabulous location, high up on a hill overlooking the town & bay. Easy to get down to town in a lift from the hotel lobby. Breakfast buffet good quality. We were in a suite with large private terrace, again great views and peacefully secluded. Some suites have their own mini-pools plus a main pool and a smaller infinity pool, both for lazing and splashing in, not for hardcore swimmers. Downsides, a bit tired as others have mentioned. Some pool parasols need replacing, some of the lobby furniture is a bit knackered, wifi is patchy, the electronic controls for lights, curtains, etc are fun but frustrating. It is a bit like a Bond movie in places (Roger Moore era, if you want specifics) a few quid upgrading some of the amenities would get this place top of the charts in no time. For now four is too generous, three too mean. Three and a half.

One night in the Ambassador suite which cost 700Euro's was a dismal disappointment. The hotel was run down and the facilities miserable. The room had such a complicated electronic system that could not be turned off without closing the air conditioning, which was not possible since the night we stayed there was a music event in the town and the noise carried up directly to our room. There was even a light on the plug in the bath! There is a ghastly miserable concrete corridor that led from the hotel lift down the hillside to the town.
