The property is definitely in need of maintenance ie the showers, the doors, the doors to balcony stiff and hard to open and close, the drain in the bathroom; but the Irinna grew on us both it is like going back in time. The staff are absolutely incredible they make you feel so welcome are kind Friendly
+Friendly and helpful staff, pool, room, near to airport
-Shower hose is to short, food is very good but always the same (or similar)
But over all accommofation is great.
Quiet area. AC worked great. Wifi was spotty. Pool was great as was food. Great place for the price. Was also nearby to some nice beaches. Close to airport.
Best 3 nights ever!!! All staff were really kind. Building is a bit old but nobody goes on holiday to stay indoors anyways. Also would’ve liked there to be more options at breakfast but other than that o would stay again

Charming old hotel
Great value for money yes it is old but its very clean and the staff are lovely... the food in the restaurant in the eveinkng is traditional greek and to die for very very well cooked. Would a 100percent return. Recommend for a cheap budget break
Positives: the pool and personal balcony was lovely, air conditioning worked well, most staff were welcoming and helpful, there is a safe in reception which is easy to use, we looked forward to breakfast every day, close to beaches and many food places, half hour walk to the airport, fridge in the rooms was useful, we were able to stay at the pool after signing out, stray cats were adorable!
Negatives: our soaps were replaced by cleaners on our second day even though they had barely been used, the shower isn't amazing but is useable
Useful to know: dinner would have been €17 each (cheaper to eat out), only hand-soap and shower soap/shampoo is provided so bring conditioner, your nearest shop is about 10 minutes walk away
Would recommend!!
The hotel is huge, has a really nice pool area with lots of trees, is very close to the airport, and has two great beaches within 10 minutes walking distance.
However - none of this makes it worth the stay. It is very dirty, our room had pubic hair on the floor, and sand and other dirt everywhere. The mattress was beyond smelly. There were no mattress or pillow protectors, and the mattresses clearly haven’t been changed for years. You could literally smell cheesy sweat through the sheet. I had to sleep on a towel and then my dressing gown throughout the stay to make it okay. The bathroom was also terrible. There is a drain in the bathroom which water rises out of every time you shower or flush the toilet. We were literally hit with eggy sewage smell when we returned from dinner one of the days, which blended with the already really musty and dirty smell of the room. There were nails sticking out the floor which thankfully we noticed upon arrival to avoid stunning our bare feet. The dinner at the hotel is €17, so we avoided that as you can get really good food in local places for as cheap as €11. There is also a serious lack of hand washing / toilets - the only outdoor toilets by the pool don’t have a sink to wash hands, so you have to either use the toilets back in by reception, or go back up to your room. The area around the pool is also not cleaned - at least within the 5 days we were there! There was litter and items from other guests left behind.
Huge great pool, clean rooms, basic but great value for money. Close to a selection of restaurants, bars and supermarket. Air con and fridge in room, towels and linen changed daily.
The room was in terrible condition, the bathtub was baby-sized it was extremely uncomfortable, there were mosquitoes in the room, they didn’t have a iron to give us, there is a terrible smell in the hotel.
The staff was very friendly and helpful, will definitely go back there.

The cleanliness and staff at the hotel are excellent. The pool is perfect and the location is convenient for the airport but still quite rural. It’s like Greece 30 years ago.
The hotel needs updating- the bathrooms although clean and functioning, are old and tired. The beds are basic. The breakfast too is basic.

Old box TV, no channels working, a waste of time having it in the room. Furniture in room rundown, no clothes hangers. The bed was very comfortable.
Swimming pool was nice, needs more seating areas & lounge beds. No restaurant/food, snacks or water available on site, you need to drive to get these. Dinner & Breakfast needs to be pre booked in advance when not purchased in a package.
Internet was ok. Heaps of parking available.
Really awful dated hotel.
Dirty swimming pool and sunloungers that you cannot move to a comfy position.
The room itself is just about ok, beds in 4 walls with a small tv from the 1980s.
The bathtub in the bathroom was very grubby and I could not even put our 3 year old in there to wash her.
We were booked in for 5 nights but checked out after 1 night and went elsewhere.
Really disappointed.
The hotel room was clean. The cleaning ladies were lovely. However, the hotel itself? I walked up the stairs for two weeks with an exoskeleton of a bug just sitting there. I passed it everyday for almost two weeks. It never moved. The breakfast was extremely basic, nothing was fresh besides the tomatoes and cucumber. The boiled eggs were over boiled to the point there were large black spots in them. The juice was bad too. The beds were the worst part, they probably haven’t been changed since the 70s when this place opened. My neighbors alarm clock woke me up, if it hadn’t been that it would be the constant slamming of doors. The bus routes they have printed are outdated. The new one at the Argostoli bus stop has different times. The front desk people were very unfriendly for the most part and not very helpful. Wifi? Forget about it, you won’t have connection through this hotel. Which really sucks because you can’t even get 4G or 3G.
I have three good things about this hotel. The two beaches either side of the hotel and I was able to make friends with the other guests by our mutual disappointment on the poor condition of the hotel.
Lovely location, close to airport , food excellent, staff very helpful and late checkout available
There are planes flying close overhead- they dont come over early or late /about 5 per day
Yes the hotel wants updating - however, it is authentic and any issues are swiftly rectified - we didnt have any issues.
A mosquito detereant is available to use in each room.
Phone
Garden or sea views
The pool is warm, there is no diving or jumping as no lifeguards present.
There is a children's pool - children under 12 need to be supervised.
If you are looking for a relaxing, nice time and as the day goes buy, with poolside bar and food this is the place for you.
There is aircon in the rooms, phones and roomservice is daily.
There is also a TV and fridge - no kettle provided (we didn't need one)
Greek law states you must pay a local room tax oer night 1.3 euros
The bus service timetable is in reception- the times are when it leaves its starting point, not when it gets to you.
If you look out towards the sea, if you see the bus come round the road near there - you habe 5 minutes to walk to the bus stop out of the driveway turn right and its on the left to go to Argostoĺion or airport.
Argostoĺion: 2 euros each
Airport 1 euro each
Armmes beach 700 yards - 15 minute walk (as receptionist for directions/ take note of where you are walking as buses and cars do go there too and all roads look similar)
At beach when having a shower wear non slip shoes! Bar, food very good
La struttura è davvero vecchia, molto grande ma vecchia, sembra si sia fermata nel passato. Bagni vecchi, ristorante datato. Può andar bene solo per chi come noi stava tutto il giorno fuori e rientrava per una doccia e per dormire. Anche la pulizia era sommaria.

la struttura è datata e non sono stati effettuati i necessari lavori di conservazione/aggiornamento.
Alcuni decenni fa doveva essere favolosa.
Del passato conserva una bellissima piscina con solarium e la vastità dei locali: reception, bar, salotti. Grande parcheggio e pineta.
La posizione nell'isola è bellissima, in particolare si trova sul sentiero di discesa dell'aeroporto e si possono osservare da vicino gli aerei in atterraggio (nelle ore notturne non ci sono voli).

Il personale è molto gentile e disponibile,ogni richiesta ci è stata prontamente soddisfatta. Tutta la struttura, compresa la camera, è datata. Avrebbe bisogno di un’ importante ristrutturazione. La colazione è limitata: un solo tipo di dolce, frutta sciroppata ( solo pesche), due tipi di cereali, …. Va bene per chi non ha troppo pretese.
Avons séjourné à l'hotel Irinna à l occasion de notre anniversaire de mariage. La direction nous organisé une soirée anniversaire sur fond de musique Bouzouki . Vraiment très sympa. Côté hébergement : chambre spacieuse avec vue sur piscine et mer.
