Overall Ratings & Reviews Byron Hotel

Great little hotel offering all the essentials in the middle of Nauplio old-town. - historic location; the bottom of the staircase is the place where Ioannis Kapodistrias was assassinated in 1831 (you can see bullet hole still) - decent breakfast - spacious rooms - nice outdoor areas - decent air-con - it’s got an air of shabby chic to it - sort of matches Nauplio in my mind Be aware - lots of cats in Nauplio so shut your windows when you go out. We got back from Mycenae and one of the little sods had crapped in the (hard wood floored) bedroom!

Great location and wonderful view. We loved having breakfast on the terrace. The staff was friendly and helpful. Quaint and quiet with an old-world feel. We used this as a base to explore some of the ancient sites in the region. We didn’t mind parking by the harbor and walking up.

Great central location from which to explore the old city, easy walk to catch a local bus to the ancient sites of Epidavros with Ascleption, Mycenea and Ancient Tyrins. Charming hotel with friendly and very helpful staff.

Everything there was really nice an my room had a special view

I was there for an academic conference and it was the perfect space to come back and relax in. The balcony was an added delight with a brilliant view of the mountains far off — sunsets and sunrises were extraordinary.

This is an old historic hotel, though there has clearly been some renovation. It is on the upper edge of Nafplio's Old Town, so you are within a few minutes' walk of many shops and restaurants, but a little quieter than on the main streets. It is also a very short walk to the beach on the other side of the peninsula. Our room was pastel-colored with high ceilings and exposed beams, and we were very comfortable there. Breakfast was an extra charge, so we went into town instead. They do have a little bar in the hotel, and we sat on the patio one night with drinks and it was very pleasant. Parking is at the municipal lot which is not far, but is a bit crowded; there is almost no parking in Old Town, so I think this is pretty typical. We really enjoyed Nafplio and the surrounding area, and our stay at the Byron was definitely a part of that. Highly recommended.

Exquisite antique furniture and decoration . Superb ambience. Great staff !

Fantastic hotel in the perfect location.

Smallest room I have ever had!! But very low price. Comfortable bed and Good view of the town lots of straits involved.

Nice property. Park at the free public parking lot which is 5 minutes walk from hotel. Google parking near hotel. Don't drive your manual car directly to the hotel. It has narrow and steep streets.

Good value. Breakfast was extra though fairly priced at 6 euro. Offsite parking free at the port though a fair distance away. Quite a few steps up hill from town. Mattresses we’re too soft and should be upgraded

No free parking at this property as indicated in this listing. You have to look for limited street parking. Giving low rating based on misleading advertising and comparatively modest rooms and amenity. You can find similar nearby hotels at half the price.

Charming historical building in a superb location, far from the madding crowd that tend to flock to Nafplio. Super staff, friendly and helpful: old fashioned service. The hotel is up some steps and thence more steps to you room. Well worth the climb: be sure to get a room with a view.

Lovely location and great views. Be aware you can’t park at the hotel. Breakfast was ok, no options for freshly prepared hot food but what was available was good. Nice outdoor area for chilling (with a G&T)! 😎

A charming, centuries-old house in an historic neighborhood (the Greek P.M. was assassinated across the alley in the 1830's).

Charming! great location with a lot of history around it.

Decent rooms, great view, and incredibly helpful staff. I’d go back for the staff alone.

I thoroughly enjoyed Byron Hotel. My single room was comfortable and cozy despite snow on Peloponnese hilltops nearby. Quick 5 minute walk to the bus station for Athens, Epidavros and Mycenae, as well as the stairclimb to incredible Palamidi Fortress. Balcony looks over tiled roofs to harbor below. Fridge and kettle in room with tea & coffee and a supermarket and fine bakery/sandwich (Euro 2.90 san and try the cinnamon biscotti) shop at nearby waterfront. I loved the breakfast with thick Greek yogurt to mix with muesli & honey, good coffee, boiled egg, cheese, ham and variety of breads plus fresh OJ. Great friendly staff.

Beautiful little hotel on picturesque street. Nafplio is a super cute little town sandwiched between the hills and the sea. Know that you will be walking up A LOT of stairs. The Byron is up a street that becomes a stairway, and then you have to go up some more stairs to check in, and then you have to go up more stairs to your room. But the higher you go, the better the view! We stayed in a 3-person room on the top floor and had an amazing view of the city and the harbor. Nafplio is a walking town, and the Byron is in walking distance to everything. Nice breakfasts included with room.

This hotel is in the oldest part of Nafpoli, in the middle of everything good in the town, if you have come to explore. Pros: clean, comfortable, quiet, and in the middle of old city. It is reasonably priced. It is living history. It is an authentic experience, unlike the boring amenities of a modern hotel room. The outdoor terrace and breakfast is excellent. Cons: No parking. Involves lot of steps (but it's part of the whole experience). Small room compared to "modern" hotel rooms. It Could be a challenge to locate and you need to bring light luggage. Hint: just up the stairs from the old Orthodox Church. Locals can direct you.
