Fantastic stay! Everything was perfect from the large, comfortable, clean room in a great location in Nafplio to the amazing breakfast served every morning on our balcony by the extremely warm and knowledgeable mother and son hosts. We loved everything about Hotel Aetoma and would highly recommend to anyone.

What a great hotel right in the middle of the Nafpolio tourist area. A beautiful B&B type hotel that was extremely clean and charming. Breakfast was huge (but eggs were cold unfortunately). Top recommendation.

Fantastic friendly family run hotel
Lovely stay in this family run hotel. They were so friendly and helpful. Breakfast was delicious and you even had the added bonus of being able to be served out on your balcony. Hotel was in the perfect location, in the old town, within walking distance to the castle, bus station, shops, restaurants and the port. Would highly recommend this hotel.

From greeting/check-in to check out our stay was wonderful. Akis greeted us with a lovely overview of Nafplio including restaurant reservations. The room was clean and the bathroom shower was excellent. Breakfast is fantastic and large, with eggs done to our liking. Only minor thing was we felt the foam pillows were too puffy. We like down pillows. Awesome hotel!

This is the best hotel that we had during our stay in Greece in more than 2 weeks. It's a family run hotel and they've been staying in this block for more than 200 years! It's an amazing place, and the breakfast provided was amazing too! Definitely should stay here if you decide to go to Nafplio!

Don’t miss out on this place!
We have made 10 trips to Europe in the past 3 years. This is by far, the best place we have stayed. Everything was above grade in all respects. The hosts were excellent, the WiFi was excellent, and the breakfast was beyond excellent. The hotel is family owned, and family run. Do yourself a favor, and stay here if you are ever in Napflion.

The perfect family hotel in a lovely seaside town
In the heart of a classic Greek seaside town, the Aetoma Hotel offered us the best combination of boutique hotel comfort and friendly B&B service. Outstanding breakfasts, good local advice, exceptional personal attention, memorable hosts who make you feel part of the family, and great comfort, all for a very reasonable price. No hesitation in giving Aetoma the highest recommendation. And Nafplion is a gem of a town - food, beach, history and close to some of the biggest names in Ancient Greek history.

Easily the best hotel we stayed in during our holiday touring Greece! A beautiful old house, exquisitely furnished and spotlessly clean. Breakfast was served on the balcony in our room and was amazing quality, with home-made pastries and jam - delicious! Wonderful hospitality too which made us feel very welcome. Faultless!

This was our second stay at Aetoma, and just as delightful as the first in 2013. Akis and Pan welcomed us as old friends. They and their staff are incredibly friendly and cheerful. Akis is a mine of information on the city and its attractions, restaurants, etc, but also on Greek history and politics past and present. It is a real pleasure talking with him about this. The hotel has been sympathetically restored and is beautifully furnished. It is in a great location in the centre of the old town with a great choice of restaurants and cafes nearby. However, you may not need them, because the breakfasts are awesome! Always freshly made with a huge choice including eggs prepared to your order.

The best Nafplio has to offer!
We arrived in the afternoon and were greeted by Akis who is the son of parents who own the property. He is a tremendous asset to your stay and familiar with the area. From sights to see and restaurants, his knowledge was invaluable. Breakfast was great... just too much food but all good. Our room was very quiet and comfortable. Probably one of the most comfortable bed's in our three weeks of touring Greece. We would highly recommend staying here.

A beautiful home in the style of most other Venetian buildings in Nafplia. The proprietors make you feel very important, though they do give you space, if you're worried about preserving your autonomy, as was I when I read other reviews about all of the attentions they bestow upon their guests. But it was a relief to see that Akis was waiting for us and even parked our car for us in the rare tight space at the base of the hotel. He hauled all our suitcases up the stairs for us and prepared a town map with hand-written names of good restaurants. He is extremely cosmopolitan and can speak English fluently. Be prepared for an orientation when you meet him. His mother cooks all of the breakfasts and is extremely accommodating if you need an earlier time because you have to catch a plane. She prepares a table for each guest (so not a buffet) and makes your eggs to order. It is very rare to find all of this. This family is absolutely committed to this industry. They truly take it to heart and it shows. There is not a detail that hasn't been attended to. Moreover, they get to know the individual tastes and proclivities of each of their guests! This is unprecedented in the history of my travels!!

This is a very charming, historic hotel located in the heart of Nafplio. The hosts were amazing and treated exceptionally well. I highly recommend staying here as it is very situated to the city, beaches and the fortress. The hosts will ensure you are taken care of and have all the information required for a pleasant stay, for a reasonable price. We will be back!

Great hotel with perfect services!
Akis and his family are really great and they run an incredible nice small hotel. Check-in / -out are super fast and simple. Breakfast is very tasty and prepared with local ingredients. Because my wife was pregnant we were very attentively taken care of. Akis's mother was preparing each day a lunch snack package after our breakfast. Room is very nice decorated and the quality of materials was far above the other hotels that we had in our Greece holiday. Last but not least the services and information provided is really impressive. All the needed information for your visit will be provided by Akis so you do not have to prepare in advance.

Would give it a 10 if I could!
Having travelled around Greece for the last couple of weeks and stayed in some really lovely places, Aetoma tops them all! On arrival Akis and his mother couldn't have been more helpful, offering us drinks and giving us great advice on things to do, restaurants etc. Our room was beautifully decorated, so clean with a comfortable bed and a great shower. Wifi was excellent. We also had a lovely little balcony looking down on the quiet narrow little streets of Nafplio, it's possible to have your breakfast on your balcony, though we didn't as it was a bit too warm outside for us!! The breakfast was also the best we've had yet, I have missed it every morning since we left the hotel! After breakfast Akis mother would make a little pack of food for us to take away on our day out, so thoughtful. This hotel is really beautiful, but it's the hospitality that really make it, I can't imagine meeting kinder, more helpful people. I would highly recommend this hotel, and Nafplio itself which is a gorgeous little town well with spending a few days in.

Over the top stay in Nafplio!
We can't say enough about Akis and his mother who treated us like family. They are passionate about their B & B and it shows in every aspect of the rooms, meals, service, etc. He warmly greeted us and provided a map for Nafplio with restaurant recommendations. He even went to the bus station as soon as he heard that we weren't treated very professionally by the bus driver. The room was spacious and so comfortable and wonderfully decorated with loving care. I brought leftovers from a restaurant one night and he provided a white linen table cloth for the table on our terrace so we could have a romantic cocktail hour while we enjoyed the view of the fort. The breakfast she provided was amazingly sumptuous with custom made omelets, generous portion of fresh squeezed orange juice, fresh fruit salad and a basket with rolls, cake, etc. and cold cuts. Someone was always there to answer questions or provide anything we needed and his mother (whose name I failed to get!) even came to the bus station at 6:30 am to say good-bye when we were departing!

Treat yourself
Not sure how I got so lucky to stumble upon this place, but what a find. Treat yourself. Akis and his mother, Pan, run a great place. Greeted upon check-in and given a full download on the hotel, the city, restaurants, sites, you name it. Both are anxious to help. Breakfasts are huge and delicious. Come hungry. Someone spent a mint remodeling this house that has been in the family for 160 years. The rooms are comfortable. Beds comfortable. The best thing however, is the staff. They know how to treat a customer.

Nice hotel in old town
We spent a wonderful 4 nights at Aetoma Hotel.  We had a beautiful, quiet room with a great bed, and a private balcony. The cleanliness and decor were superb and consistent throughout the entire house.  The business is run by Akis and his Mother Panagiota, both of whom went above and beyond duty to accommodate their guests. Upon arrival to the hotel we were greeted by Akis, who immediately took our luggage and carried it to the first floor of the house. He already had a map of the city prepared for us, with sight-seeing and restaurant recommendations. To top it all he also gave us a local mobile phone with pre-paid card to use as we please. He was very knowledgeable on the area and his suggestions on how to reach Mycenae and Epidaurus. His mother, who was born in the house which is now converted to the hotel, is the best host one can possibly imagine.  She was serving amazing breakfasts as ordered the previous night, and presented with flair and style. We had a choice of delicious Greek yogurt, eggs, cheese, cold cuts, fresh fruit and an overabundance of bakery selections made by mom, accompanied by freshly squeezed orange juice, tea or coffee and home-made jams.  During the trip I suffered from upset stomach. When Akis and Panagiota learned about this they made sure that I have a fresh pot of chamomile tea available in my room at all times.During our last day of stay in Nafplio it was raining and the hosts had a basket full of huge umbrellas at the front door.
