• C & A-class hotels in either beachside location or elevated with pool • first-class hospitality• air-conditioned bedrooms with balconies

"Just to tell you that we had a delightful holiday at the Hotel Minoa in Tolo – the staff were so kind and helpful, the food excellent, the weather total sunshine and the taxi rides to/from Athens most comfortable."

As at so many of our featured hotels, it was the warm hospitality that first attracted us to the C-class Hotel Minoa, and this has earned it high praise over the years. It is a truly family affair, with genuine Greek hospitality evident in every aspect of the hotel.

Owner Yannis Georgidakis and manageress Hara (an ‘honorary’ member of the family) like to take the time to get to know their guests and are happy to share their knowledge of the Peloponnese. They are helped out by Yannis’s son, Costis, as well as by his niece, Kalliope, not to mention some of the younger members of the family, all of whom offer the same smiling and helpful service.

If all that were not enough for you, the hotel is located right on Tolo’s beach, with a terrace bar (occasionally the setting for impromptu music and dancing, for which you will usually be invited to join the family), chairs and tables set on the sand by the water’s edge, and smart public rooms that include a bar and lounge.

The Minoa has no pool due to its waterside location, though for those who would prefer one we are pleased to feature the Minoa’s sister hotel, the A-class King Minos, located just above the village with spectacular views across Tolo Bay. Again, the standards are high and the service friendly. If you want a change of scenery from the large swimming pool, it is only a short walk down to the seafront.

Our prices include breakfast only, though please contact us for a quotation if you would prefer to dine each night in the hotel's own restaurant, which offers a choice of table d'hôte and à la carte menus. The Minoa has 44 rooms while the King Minos has 57. Both hotels have comfortable bedrooms with air-conditioning, a balcony, satellite television and modern bath or shower rooms; book early and you can reserve a room with sea views.
