Visiting the incredible Meteora region in Greece during your vacation? This guide to the best Kalambaka hotels will show you where to stay near Meteora so that you can make the most of your time when there.

Where to stay in Meteora Greece

Although Meteora can be reached when taking day trips from Athens, this UNESCO World Heritage Site deserves as much time as you can give it. After visiting Meteora twice now, I would say that spending 2 or even 3 days there is ideal.

As you can't stay in the monasteries themselves, the best places to stay near Meteora are the nearby villages of Kalambaka and Kastraki. 

Kalambaka and Kastraki near Meteora

The villages of Kalambaka and Kastraki are the best places to stay near Meteora due to their close proximity to the monasteries. Kastraki is closer, and is a smaller, and perhaps more charming place to stay. Kalambaka is a larger town, with more infrastructure. As such there are more Kalambaka hotels than hotels in Kastraki.


Booking.com

They both have a range of accommodation to suit all budgets, and I've included something for everyone. I've also linked to Booking which helps you get the best price for booking a hotel near Meteora. Here are my suggestions for the top 5 hotels in Kalambaka and Kastraki.

Stay in the hotels in Kalambaka, andyou'll have close access to the amazing sights of Meteora in Greece.

Top Kalambaka Hotels in Meteora Greece

Divani Meteora Hotel in Kalambaka

The Divani Meteora Hotel is located in the village of Kalambaka, and is classed as 4-5 star hotel. Whilst it doesn't have a swimming pool, it does have an in-house spa.

The sauna and Jacuzzi might be useful after a day spent sightseeing around the monasteries of Meteora! A very comfortable place to stay for a night or two.

Kosta Famissi Hotel in Kalambaka

If you can get by the rather garish and kitsch front entrance, you will find that this hotel in Kalambaka offers pretty good value for money. It's a 3 star place with around 50 rooms, so you should find a place to stay even in the very busiest times of year.

Opposite, there is another hotel with almost the same name. I didn't want to ask if it belonged to the same family, just in case they had fallen out at some time in the past!

Monastiri Guesthouse in Kalambaka

The Monastiri Guesthouse gets consistently good reviews, making it one of the best places to stay near Meteora.  It has a cosy, intimate feel to it, and the hosts seem to make everyone feel at home. This is a good choice of Kalambaka hotel for couples, especially if they are on a honeymoon in Greece!

Meteora Hotel in Kastraki

A luxury 4-5 star hotel in the village of Kastraki, the Meteora Hotel is an ideal place to be based. With a swimming pool and stylish touches it is instantly appealing, but really, it's the views which make this place a winner.

Dellas Boutique Hotel in Kastraki, Meteora

My final choice for one of the best places to stay near Meteora, is the Dellas Boutique Hotel in Kastraki. It is a 3 star hotel, but probably deserves 4.

It has a cosy feel to it, with the feel of a modern, elegant mountain lodge. There is both a bar and dining room in the hotel, making it a good place to stay for people who want all the facilities in one hotel.

      Hi David,
      Bikes as in bicycles? Sure,most places will look after a bike for you. 99 times out of a hundred wherever I’ve cycled in the world, they will let you take it into a room – if not, they will have a store for it.
      If you mean motorbike – I would suggest choosing a place with off-road parking.
      There’s also a couple of campsites in the area you might want to stay it if you are travelling with a tent – Camping in Meteora.
      Not sure how you arrived at my site, but if you are cycling in Greece and have any questions, I’m more than happy to help!
      Wishing you all the best.
