Magnifique vue du jardin
Petit déjeuner très copieux et fait pas la maîtresse de maison, servi dans le jardin avec la vue sur les météores. Possibilité d'avoir la vue sur les météores du balcon. Adorable famille très à l'écoute et literie confortable. Facilité de parking devant l'hôtel.

Really nice hotel, people there were so kind and welcoming it was really refreshing to see how friendly and helpful staff were as I stay in hotels constantly. It made my stay very enjoyable. Breakfast was really good, all homemade and delicious. Thank you :-)

Great hotel for your visit to Meteora. The rooms are spacious and clean, the bed is comfy, and the area is really quiet. Great breakfast. The hosts are so very welcoming and accommodating - the owner drove us to the train station when it was time to leave! Just a heads-up: the hotel is located at the top of a road with a fairly steep incline. I came with only a day pack and was so glad that I had left my luggage back in Athens, because the road isn't even paved in some areas - just packed dirt and loose pebbles in places. If you think you will have difficulty reaching the hotel via an 800-meter climb up a dirt road that feels like it's on a 50-degree upward angle, consider taking a taxi. Also, there are no restaurants in the immediate vicinity. At the end of our Meteora sunset tour, our tour operators dropped us off at the restaurant of our choice (thanks, Visit Meteora!) and we just walked back to the hotel after dinner. The restaurants are closer to the hotel than the main train station, but just keep in mind the uphill trek I wrote about before. It took us 20 minutes to walk from the train station to the hotel, and it took 15 to get from the area with the restaurants to the hotel.

There is not cooperation with hotelbeds by which travel agency you had booked. So, this review is without value and interest.

Good home base
We had a lovely stay in meteora. The hosts were great about helping us find things to see/do/eat in the area. The hotel is a little outside of the downtown area, so good for being quiet, but not so good if you want to walk to dinner.

Heavenly!
This was an amazing bed & breakfast experience! Maria, our host, was so helpful and friendly and she made a delicious homemade breakfast buffet. Our room was spacious , clean with The most spectacular view of Meteora. The location was quaint and peaceful, but just a few minutes from the city center. I highly recommend the Eplavlis Suites!

Best experience of our trip
Can't say enough about this one. Charming and very clean. The big hotels could learn a thing or two about hospitality from Epavalis Suites. Homemade food to top it off and an informal garden dinner. We would go out of our way to stay again.

Lovely and comfortable room
Beautiful room with the most comfortable beds we've encountered in Greece. Kind and helpful owners that go out of their way to make your stay enjoyable, they even shared their ice cream with us after a day of exploring the monasteries. It's just quite far away from everything, which is not a problem when you have a car or enjoy walking (and the owners are willing to take you to the bus/train station when needed). Just don't expect to be close to everything. The location indicated on Hotels.com is not right, Google maps does a better job.

Excellent view of Meteora and valley
Location is on a hill and has wonderful views. Very relaxing and quiet; above the hustle/bustle of the town. Technically, there is no street address yet assigned, but Google maps shows the correct location (mapquest is wrong). It's a bit difficult to find, but owner has more signs to place around town. In addition to a typical European continental breakfast, the owners provide several homemade local dishes. And they enjoy chatting with guests and giving advice (with map) on visiting the Meteora monasteries. Their restaurant suggestions are good also.

Amazing Family Hotel
Most certainly the best Hotel experience I had in my life. The room was great, spacious, modern and very clean. The service was just amazing: At our arrival the owner welcomed us and carried our luggages. Since the deluxe room was not occupied during our stay we got it as a free upgrade. He and his wife were very friendly and helpful. They gave us a map and explain us where to go, what to see and what are the best places to eat in the city. The breakfast is very tasty and made with homemade greek specialities. The best! We had to take a very early morning train the day of our checkout, they offered us to drop us a the train station and prepared us a breakfast to go. You can see that they put a lot of efforts into their hotel and the services they provide and it works. Thank you again.

You will be treated like family
Epalvis suites deserves 5 stars for service alone! I was emailed by the hotel that they were overbooked and that I would be relocated to another hotel nearby (with more stars by the way.) I was very disappointed but upon our arrival at Epalvis, my boyfriend and I were served Greek coffee and juice while we waited for the owner, (?) who kindly explained that he had a large group already staying at the hotel and that they requested one more room so he had to make arrangements for us elsewhere. He gave us an overview of the town, arranged a tour for us, and then took us to the new hotel. He even asked the tour operators to drop us off at his place after the tour for a bbq that he had for his guests and he and his wife Maria served us a 6 course meal!! His daughter even played the violin for everyone. Spakos?hospitality is genuine. He treats his guests like family. At the end of it all he drove us back to our hotel and made sure we left full and happy. You cannot go wrong staying at this guesthouse.

Hidden Gem in Kalambaka!
Lovely boutique accommodation surrounded by the beauty and grandeur of the meteora in Kalambaka. Spacious family suites and cosy loft area for kids was very comfortable. Great place for stargazing, romantic getaway and family bonding over cuppa in the balcony. Lovely breakfast area within the property. Location is about 15mins or so walk to the main bustling street so accessibility to amenities is not an issue. The owners (lovely family too) are very hospitable, readily helped with transport arrangements and it helps that they spoke English too. A real hidden gem in Kalambaka!

We felt like getting home. Stayed 2 nights and wan
We felt like we arrived home. we stayed 2 nights, Spiro was always there to ensure we get exactly what we need. He also offered a BBQ in one of the evening which was great. One of the best breakfast we had in Greece. One thing was annoying is that we ordered a room for 4 persons which doesn’t fit the need and we were required to upgraded when arrived to the Hotel

So your reservation has been confirmed. So what?
We are a couple with 3 children and had planed for a long time a trip without the children to celebrate an anniversary. We had booked a 1 night at the Epavlis Boutique Hotel, Kalambaka about a month in advance and guess what... when we arrived the owner/manager told us without any noticed in advance (he had our Mobile numbers) that "unfortunately" he cant host us. Why? - well, the first excuse was a wedding or something like this... and later on he said there are problems with the water or whatever. It doesn't really matter, it was so frustrating... he took us to a different, lower rated "guesthouse" and since we planed to stay in Mateora just for one night we did not had a real chance/time to look for other alternatives.... to summarize - we had an extremely frustrating experience with the Epavlis Boutique Hotel.

Fantastiskt boende. Vi hade en balkong och en egen gräsyta med sittplatser på båda. Öppen spis. Fantastisk utsikt mot Meteora. Trevlig och hjälpsam personal. Dock svårt att hitta till hotellet när vi åkte på GPS så stämde inte adressen alls. Hotellet ligger efter en brant grusväg. Väljer detta hotellet igen.

맛있는 조식, 훌륭한 전망
위치가 좀 위쪽에 있어서 차가 없으면 힘들겠지만, 그만큼 조용하고 전망이 좋습니다. 조식이 아주 맛있어요. 직원분이 친절합니다. 다만 호텔에서 현금으로 지불하는줄 알고 현금을 준비했는데, 체크아웃아침에 직원분이 말씀도 없이 미리 카드로결재를 하셨더라구요. 그점은 좀 아쉬웠습니다.
