Impero Nafplio Hotel & Suites, Nafplio

Kimkim team favorite · 4.5 (4 reviews) · Standard
Charming 19th-century neoclassical hotel with modern amenities, views of Bourtzi Castle, and within walking distance of historical sites

Overview

Impero Nafplio Hotel & Suites combines modern comforts with a historic atmosphere in the colorful Venetian-style Old Town of Nafplio. Situated just one block from the waterfront, the hotel offers views of the Aegean Sea and the Bourtzi island fortress. Original building details add character to the bright and contemporary rooms, and the hotel's prime location provides access to the restaurants, cafés, and shops of Nafplio.

Kimkim's Take

Pros
  • This 19th-century neoclassical building was renovated in 2019, so guests enjoy a mix of historical charm and modern comforts.
  • All rooms have great views of the sea or city.
  • The location in Old Town offers easy access to the city's bars, restaurants, shops, and historic sites.
  • Arvanitia Beach is nearby.
Cons
  • On-site parking isn't available due to the Old Town location, but you can find free public parking just five minutes away at the port.
  • There's no restaurant, bar, spa, pool, or fitness center at the hotel.
  • The hotel isn't suitable for travelers with limited mobility.

Authenticity

This 19th-century neoclassical building was renovated in 2019 but retains original details that capture the history of Greece's first capital. Wrought-iron furnishings, ornate balcony decorations, and other elements add charm to the modern and contemporary rooms. While the hotel brings the city's past to life, you can also experience this history by stepping outside right into Nafplio's Old Town, one of the most picturesque in Greece.

Location

You'll find the Impero Nafplio Hotel & Suites in the Old Town of Nafplio, the first capital of Greece from 1823 to 1834. Discover the Venetian and Ottoman influences among Old Town's cobblestoned streets and colorful buildings, where you'll find various restaurants and shops. Explore the city's history with visits to Akronafplia Castle, 10 minutes away on foot, or Palamidi Fortress, 10 minutes away by car. 

Rooms & Bathrooms

The rooms are bright and comfortable, with wood flooring and large windows that let in natural light. Each features a double or king-size bed, soundproofed windows, and modern amenities like a Dolce Gusto coffee machine, and views vary between the city and the ocean. Marble-lined bathrooms have a hydro-massage shower cabin. For extra relaxation, check out the Deluxe Suite with Sea View, which includes a stone balcony overlooking the Aegean and Bourtzi Fortress.

Amenities

Impero Nafplio Hotel & Suites doesn't have many extra amenities, but there's a tour desk, luggage storage, and a shuttle service for an added fee. The property isn't wheelchair-friendly, as the upper floors require the use of stairs.

Family-Friendliness

The hotel welcomes children of all ages, offering complimentary cribs and family-friendly suites that can accommodate four guests. Children over seven are charged as adults, and the hotel isn't stroller-friendly. 

Other Highlights

The property doesn't have a bar or restaurant but serves a homemade breakfast buffet with locally sourced products. It's available every morning on the ground floor of the hotel.

Great location with inconsistent but adequate parking options. Suite #7 was nice, although the door was only about 5 feet high. Breakfast was outstanding. Read more

One of the concierges helped us make a reservation for a manicure at the last minute. I was so grateful for the recommendation and the manicure was lovely.

This bad was extremely comfortable. The bathroom has a very fancy shower with lots of options. I really enjoyed how spacious our room was and the access to outdoor space to see the view or sit and have privacy.
