First of all, you will never be more welcomed in any other place in the world like you are welcomed at the Leonidaion. Damianos is the best ambassador to his city and to his hotel. He is a great host and a fantastic bartender. The hotel is perfect for what we needed in Olympia. It was super clean, close to shopping and amazing restaurants and an every short walk to the ancient Olympic site. I would recommend this place to everyone!

Great host, great location. In November Olympia is very quiet, which is a good thing! Leave your car and walk. Restaurants that are open are very welcoming and the food is great.

The owner of this hotel is awesome! He's very attentive to your needs and a great conversationalist. He made me a cocktail and chatted. Great personalized attention you won't get at most hotels. Also, easy parking and you can walk to the Olympic site.

The first floor bar / breakfast area is nicely decorated. Continental breakfast was good. Also had boiled eggs. Typical European bedroom and bathroom. Located next to police station that was very quiet. Lots of restaurants in town with one a few doors down. Not located on the Main Street and close to The ancient Olympic area. Park in front of the hotel.

We stayed with 3 adults and had the rooftop suite. There were 2 rooms separated by the bathroom. We didn't use it, but the room had a small stove, fridge and everythimg you would need to cook a meal. The owner/manager was wonderful, recommending a restaurant 2 doors down for dinner. Would definitely stay again!

Great 3* hotel
Lovely hotel and fabulous host. Damian the owner was really friendly and gave using great tips for visiting the ruins and places to eat. Convenient for walking to the ruins and had parking right outfrobt We stayed in the junior suite which was basically the whole of the roof area with great views. Very clean, had everything we needed, not very soundproof so could hear traffic noise although it much traffic but there were dogs barking from time to time would recommend ear plugs at night if you’re a light sleeper. Great 3* hotel

Loved this guesthouse! The owner was incredibly friendly and helpful. I told him I would be seeing the ruins the next day and he suggested I leave my car parked in front of the hotel and walk to the site. So glad I did! Was able to leave my belongings in the car as it’s right next to the police station. The site was just a brief walk away. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The bed was SO comfy. I just melted into it after such a long drive! Had a delicious breakfast the next morning! If you are planning a stop in Olympia, stay here. You won’t regret it! Price is great, especially for what you get!

What a gem!!!
This hotel was full of surprises! We stayed in the Penthouse, at the top of the hotel. We were not expecting much, as the price was extremely reasonable. Under $100 a night!! When he showed us our room, we could not believe not believe what we had! A huge deck that looked out over the town, with a double hammock for 2, a dining table and chairs, and 2 sunbeds. The room was spacious with a kitchen, a bathroom with a bathtub, and a very comfortable bed. There was also a living room section with beautiful furniture. The owner is extremely friendly and welcoming, and could charge 3 times what he is charging for this room! We will definitely stay here again. In addition, you are only a 5 minute walk from the ancient grounds of Olympia, and the fantastic little museum of Archimedes. Well worth the visit!

I was pleasantly surprised at this little find. The owner greeted us personally at the door and even carried our bags. The hotel was modern and comfortable. Had a little community space downstairs that would be great for chatting with other travelers. The location couldn't have been better. We parked on the street and walked to everything.

The host, Damiano, is very helpful and engaging, and keen to point out its his house for you the guest so make yourself at home. If you asking about the quote in the breakfast lounge he may tell you his life changing story. Breakfast was perfect and Olympia site10 minutes walk from guest house. His tip to visit the beach at kalogria, was great, definitly the best beach in Peloponnese; 4 mile of golden sand and perfect condition for swimming, thanks Damiano

Perfect stay for exploring Olympia
Had a really excellent stay here in room #8, the suite at the top of the hotel. From check-in with Damiano and all the helpful information he provided (as well as being friendly and funny) to breakfast, and the guestroom with its own private rooftop terrace, crisp linens and equipped kitchen, and its proximity to the Olympia archaeological site, everything about this was perfect! Glad we spent two nights here instead of just one and took Damiano's advice to visit the archaeological site and museums in the afternoon, once all the day-trippers have left for the day. Would definitely return and book room #8!

This was a lovely little guest house in Olympia which offered excellent value for money. Our room was very nice and the bed comfortable. Our host Damiano was charming and very helpful. The breakfast was excellent. There was also a common room which was a great place to sit and read through the heat of the afternoon, before we went out again. We spent time at the site of Olympia (easily accessible from hotel) but also good walk down to river Alpheios and then up Mt (?) Drouvas. We also appreciated the Archimedes Museum. An exceptionally pleasant few days in Olympia, all enhanced by our stay at the Leonidaion.
