Very Good

We had a wonderful one night stay at the Hercules Hotel. It is very conveniently located. We received a fantastic dinner recommendation from the staff (Taverna Orestis). We enjoyed the traditional Greek breakfast of hard boiled eggs, breads, pastries, yogurt, coffee and tea (7.5 EUR pp). It is a perfect place to stay for a night or two while visiting the sites of Olympia.
A great place to stay. A short walk from Ancient Olympia. Great folks very friendly. We stayed there 5 years ago and we just stayed there now. We will definitely stay there again!
And tell friends about this great hotel.

Older building that has been taken care of. Staff very friendly and helpful. Breakfast (set menu) very good.
We stayed at the Hercules for two nights and really enjoyed our stay. The owner was so friendly and very helpful with local advice. The room was simple, but very clean. We would definitely come back here again.
We arrived at the hotel for the night directly from Kalamata Airport, the owners have been waiting for us and have welcomed us late in the evening around 23. Very Clean and comfortable, very close to the sites.

Good value for money
A nice modest place run by a friendly family. I visited in the offseason so things were quiet. The hotel was as as described and the staff was very kind and accommodating. It’s no Hilton of course, but the bed and room were comfortable. Traffic is a bit noisy which is odd for a tiny town, but I had a nice time.

Very charming in person, the photos don't do it justice
A comfortable hotel in a good location. The owner is very friendly and helpful. Breakfast is excellent value. It has some parking of its own but there is on-street parking adjacent to the hotel. Recommended. Excellent value.
Great location for the Olympic site/ museum/ restaurants. Walking distance. Parking on site. Good room for price,large balcony. Gracious,helpful hosts. Fresh orange juice at breakfast. Was there over Easter, interesting to see Greek tradition.
