Frequently asked questions about hotels in Greece
What are the best landmarks to visit in Greece?
Greece boasts countless iconic landmarks. The Acropolis in Athens, with the Parthenon as its crowning glory, is a must-see. The ancient theatre of Epidaurus, renowned for its acoustics, is another incredible site. For something different, explore the Minoan Palace of Knossos on Crete, a fascinating glimpse into Bronze Age civilisation. And don't forget the stunning monasteries of Meteora, perched dramatically on towering rock formations.
What are the most popular 2, 3 and 4-star hotels in Greece?
Island hopping is a quintessential Greek experience; the Cyclades and Dodecanese offer a wealth of options. Exploring ancient ruins, like those at Delphi or Olympia, provides a connection to history. Relaxing on beautiful beaches, such as Elafonisi in Crete or Navagio Beach on Zakynthos, is a must. Hiking in the Samaria Gorge on Crete is a challenging but rewarding experience. And savouring delicious Greek cuisine in a taverna is an absolute necessity.
The shoulder seasons (April-May and September-October) offer pleasant weather, fewer crowds, and lower prices than the peak summer months (June-August). Summer is ideal for beach holidays, but it can be very hot and crowded, especially on the popular islands. Winter can be mild in some areas, but many islands have limited services.
What are the best family friendly hotels in Greece?
Which areas are best for spending a week in Greece?
A week allows for a more in-depth exploration. The islands of Crete or Rhodes offer diverse landscapes, beaches, and historical sites. Alternatively, exploring mainland Greece, focusing on areas like Athens and Delphi, allows for a blend of city life and ancient history. The Peloponnese peninsula offers a mix of archaeology, beaches and charming towns.
Which parts of Greece are perfect for a weekend getaway?
For a short break, consider Athens, with its ancient sites and vibrant atmosphere. Nafplio, a picturesque town in the Peloponnese, offers a charming escape. Mykonos or Santorini, though popular, can be experienced in a long weekend, focusing on their iconic sights and beautiful beaches.
Is renting a car recommended for exploring Greece?
Renting a car offers flexibility, especially for exploring the islands and more remote areas of the mainland. However, parking can be challenging in cities, and driving on some island roads can be demanding. Public transport is adequate in many areas, especially on the larger islands and in Athens.
What are the best hotels with a swimming pool in Greece?
Credit cards are increasingly accepted in larger establishments, particularly in tourist areas. However, smaller businesses and tavernas in more rural locations may prefer cash. It's advisable to carry some euros for smaller purchases and in less touristy areas.
What are the largest airports in Greece?
Athens International Airport (ATH) is the largest and busiest airport, serving as the main gateway to the country. Heraklion International Airport (HER) on Crete and Thessaloniki International Airport (SKG) are also significant hubs.
Are there any unwritten rules of behaviour visitors should know about Greece?
Greeks are generally warm and welcoming, but it's polite to greet people with a 'γεια σας' (ya sas). Learning a few basic Greek phrases is appreciated. It's customary to take your time over meals and enjoy the social aspect. Loud conversations are generally accepted, especially in social settings.
What local specialties should you try in Greece?
Moussaka, a layered eggplant and meat casserole, is a classic. Souvlaki, grilled meat skewers, are a popular street food. Greek salad, with its simple yet delicious combination of tomatoes, cucumbers, olives, and feta cheese, is a must-try. Seafood dishes are abundant and fresh, especially in coastal areas. And don't forget to sample the local wines.
Where are the best shopping spots in Greece?
Athens offers a range of shopping options, from high-street brands to local boutiques. The Monastiraki flea market is a great place to find souvenirs and unique items. On the islands, you'll find smaller shops selling local crafts, jewellery, and clothing. Many areas offer shops selling local olive oil, honey, and other regional products.
What signature events or festivals take place in Greece?
The Athens Festival, a summer event with theatre, music, and dance performances, is a highlight. Numerous religious festivals are celebrated throughout the year, often involving processions and local traditions. Many towns and villages host their own smaller festivals, celebrating local produce or saints' days. The Patras Carnival is one of the largest in Europe.
What’s the best place in Greece for mild and comfortable weather?
The islands of the Cyclades, such as Naxos or Paros, generally offer mild weather throughout the year, although summers can be hot. Coastal areas of the Peloponnese peninsula also enjoy a relatively mild climate. Southern Crete also tends to have milder winters than other parts of the country.
What are the most common travel mistakes tourists make in Greece?
Underestimating the heat during summer months is a common mistake. Not learning a few basic Greek phrases can also limit interactions with locals. Relying solely on credit cards in smaller businesses can be problematic. Not booking accommodation and ferries in advance, especially during peak season, can lead to disappointment.
What are some hidden gems to explore in Greece?
The island of Folegandros in the Cyclades offers stunning scenery and a more tranquil atmosphere than some of its more popular neighbours. The Mani Peninsula in the Peloponnese boasts dramatic landscapes and traditional stone tower houses. Delos, a small uninhabited island near Mykonos, is an important archaeological site with a rich history.
