9/10 Wonderful! (2 reviews)
In realtà non è un hotel, è più un b&b: la camera era molto spaziosa, al piano terra, con bagno e cucinino, zona giardino dove stendere e prendere una boccata d'aria fresca, e la piscina è bellissima. Marieta è una ragazza giovane e sempre attenta alle esigenze dei clienti...l'unico problema è che è distante da tutto, ma questo non è colpa di nessuno, Cefalonia è molto rurale e ha pochi centri abitati tutti sparsi per l'isola. Comunque consigliato per chi vuole rilassarsi e stare tranquillo, in coppia o in famiglia!

My daughters and I had an outstanding stay at Aenos Hotel and would 100% recommend it to anyone visiting Kefalonia. The hospitality was exceptional. The managers, front desk team, housekeeping staff, and breakfast staff were all incredibly warm, professional, and attentive. Everyone made us feel genuinely welcome, and their kindness and willingness to help made our stay even more enjoyable. The hotel is spotless, with clean, cool, modern, and very comfortable rooms. Housekeeping did an excellent job every day, and the Wi-Fi was fast, reliable, and worked perfectly throughout our stay. The breakfast was excellent, with a wide variety of fresh and delicious options each morning. There was something for everyone, and it was a wonderful way to start the day. The location is another major highlight. The hotel is perfectly situated in the heart of Argostoli’s main square, just steps away from numerous restaurants, cafés, shops, and the waterfront. Everything you need is within easy walking distance. The hotel also offers convenient laundry and ironing services, which are especially helpful for longer stays. What truly sets Aenos Hotel apart is its people. The outstanding customer service, genuine hospitality, and attention to detail made us feel at home throughout our visit. Our daughters and I had a wonderful experience, and we would not hesitate to stay here again on our next visit to Kefalonia. Thank you to the entire Aenos Hotel team for making our vacation so memorable
