The best accommodations - Central Greece in 2024

Practical information : Accomodation Central Greece

Budget & Tips

The best plan, when you have the choice, is always to travel in June or September, when prices melt or before the summer inflation (which can, in some places, vary from one to three times...). In Athens, on the other hand, prices do not change much and remain quite high, unless you negotiate beforehand at the time of booking (and if the period is low).
Without being a Greek specificity, it is important to know that the Airbnb platform has developed enormously in big cities like Athens and Thessaloniki. The competition is tough for the traditional hotel business, because these are often apartments rented for tourist purposes, therefore cheap and quite well equipped.
Finally, be aware that many hoteliers still offer discounts in exchange for cash. We try to avoid this, but it does exist.

To be booked

It is often imperative to book between 15 July and the end of August, at least in the most touristy regions. From one week to the next, some prices vary from single to double or even more... And, above all, there are places, especially on the coast, where you can end up with nothing!

What's very local

Even if they remain a specificity of the islands, you will still find some family pensions and especially domatia (rooms) in private homes on the coast. In addition to lower rates than in most hotels, this is often an opportunity to meet people and make nice connections. If you stay there, look around and you will probably spot some regulars!

For food lovers

Breakfasts are rarely the highlight of Greek gastronomy. Among the mistakes not to be made, be careful with the word "toast" which will often mean "croque-monsieur" and not "toast" for your interlocutor... On the other hand, taste without moderation yoghurts sprinkled with honey (home-made if possible) or homemade jams, or take some fruit. Paradise is often found in these small details.

Smokers

After years of laxity, Greece is beginning to enforce anti-smoking legislation in restaurants, or at least to announce it. In hotels, be sure to scrupulously respect the prohibition of smoking in the rooms. But to the delight of smokers, many rooms have balconies (or even views, which makes the effort to go outside much more tolerable).

Tourist traps

It is mostly a practice in the islands, but you will sometimes see, on some sites, rabble-rousers with signs with the effigy of a pension, or even a room in the inhabitant's house. It is not necessarily a bad plan, but ask for photos, price and distance of this accommodation before getting into a vehicle.
