Hotel Orfeas

When I arrived to check in at the scheduled time there was no-one around, and a cleaning lady I found attempted to check me in, until she told me they didn’t have my booking on file. Lucky they had one more room available. The room was dated, with a bed that felt like I was sleeping on a board. Got none. On the plus side, the owner is a nice old fella and the view is rad.

The kindest gentleman runs this place. He took care of our needs, breakfast was great and the room was very nice. Highly recommend!! It's a small town and the hotel is within walking distance of everything. Amazing views from our room!!!

Thank you to the nice gentleman who runs this establishment, he is very helpful (he called to inform me about the buses which is a great help in Greece). The place is clean, the staff is attentive. Call if you want a room because on booking it was “full” but they had available room.

This is a great family run hotel for those travelling on a budget. The price was great and they provide an extremely generous breakfast. The view from our balcony was absolutely stunning. The staff are very friendly and keen to please. Would highly recommend!

Normally we do not stay in two star hotels but we choose this hotel for the view for a one night stop. Our two rooms had fantastic views. The Greek breakfast was served slowly but was delicious. We did not use the shower because it was dating from the seventies and we just had a good shower in the previous apartment. We did not like the brown blankets because it was impossible to see if the blankets were clean. There were two small bugs coming out of a gap in the wall. We killed them, and no bugs did go home with us. This hotel should repair the gap in the wall and should use duvets instead of brown blankets. Then we would be glad to return. The owner and his son were very kind. Most of the guests were backpackers and we were not. Delphi has some nice restaurants but the parking in the village is very limited. Near the Archeological museum there is not enough parking space either. If the hotels in Delphi center want more independent travellers, they should invest in a decent parking.

DO NOT STAY HERE!!!! Owner is an aggressive bully! We booked a double room with a balcony and view and were put in the basement. When we asked the son to change rooms he said to wait for his father who then told us that everyone from the UK has a problem with this room and that English people are crazy. When explaining what we’d booked he kept telling us to stop talking. I had used the toilet and apologised for that but we’d been on a coach for 3 hours and were desperate. However, I feel it doesn’t take long to quickly clean a toilet and it didn’t warrant the verbal abuse I received - especially when the room we were placed in wasn’t what was advertised. I had to keep telling him that there’s no point shouting and let’s talk calmly. We were shown two more rooms, one with a view of the street and one with a gorgeous view (twin bed but no issue for us). However, we decided not to stay as we felt very uncomfortable due to how we were spoken to. When we returned to the front desk and explained we weren’t staying and wanted to get our bags from the original room the owner aggressively snatched the keys out of my hands (pulling my hands also). My boyfriend stepped in front to protect me to which the owner threw himself at my boyfriend with an aggressive gesture - his son had to hold him back. Then after a lot of him telling us to take the third room and us saying no the son took us to get our bags. Then we spent ages trying to get a refund and luckily the son was a little more helpful and checked their accounts and rang *********** so we got our refund. All the while the owner was either telling us to take the third room or glaring at us. The son seemed embarrassed and caught in the middle of wanting to help us but had his father ordering him around. This was a very upsetting experience for us but luckily we left with our money. We then tried Epic Rooms and were greeted by a lovely older lady who was kind and funny. Our view was amazing and we were so glad we left Orfeas and went to Epic (and it wasn’t much more expensive).

Great family friendly hotel very reasonable price. The owner was very helpful with advice directions and good will. Breakfast was very Greek but substantial. The hotel is situated with easy walking distance of main attractions. It’s a very easy walk to the archeological site and museum.

This hotel is great value for your money! Definitely a budget friendly hotel and the staff were so friendly to visit with. It was a pretty standard breakfast and a lot more food than my friend and I could eat which was awesome! The only unfortunate thing is the mattresses used on the beds are quite solid so the sleep wasn’t amazing. However, we had an overall very pleasant stay here and would recommend to anyone on a budget!

Dimitri (owner) was friendly & helpful. Breakfast (extra charge) was orange juice, hot water for sachets of tea or coffee, a boiled egg, some bread with butter, a selection of jams and a slice of ham and cheese. There were also biscuits and a slice of cake and the best bit was the yoghurt and glyko - worthwhile. The road outside is quiet with little passing traffic. The hotel is arranged on 4 floors. Some rooms have access to the terrace, others have a private balcony. The view is from the upper rooms. Our room was a little bare but had all the facilities that we needed including a fridge. All the lights worked! Overall an enjoyable stay.
