Great place to stay to visit the area. We only stayed one night so we could visit the Samaria Gorge but wish we'd have been staying longer! The rooms have everything you need and the staff were very welcoming. The food was very tasty and we even went back for an evening meal after the Gorge!! The free transfers to the gorge are also really good. Definitely deserves more than 2 stars!!

The hotel staff were very thoughtful. Dinners there were excellent, especially the bean soup which I had two nights in a row. The hotel offers a complimentary shuttle service to the Samaria Gorge trailhead, and the KTEL public bus service from Sougia drops passengers off right in front of the hotel. Highly recommended.

Simple but Beautiful
This is a very beautiful hotel in a beautiful setting. It is like a mountain lodge. There are communal seating areas throughout. There is an attached restaurant but we didn’t have a chance to eat there. The room was pretty clean. There was no rubbish (garbage, trash) bin in the room which meant that your only option is to use the customary Greek toilet paper bin which we would have preferred to keep only to that use. There aren’t any extras in the room. The TV is a 12” screen CRT(tube) type television. That didn’t matter to us as we didn’t want to watch TV and found everything to be sufficient. There were beautiful wooden shutters that opened a large window. We had it open most of the time for the fresh mountain air. I don’t believe there was AC but the temperature is milder than on the coast. Ample free parking and a shuttle to the gorge should you desire, though you need to sign up for it as it only makes trips at scheduled times. The only complaint I’d have is the same as almost every accommodation that I’ve experienced in Greece. I am 6ft/182cm and 150lb/68kg so fairly light and thin. I have found these and other beds here to be extremely firm. For my weight and build, and as a side sleeper, the beds feel like wood with a blanket on top for cushion. I would not take off any points for Neo Omalos though, because that has been my experience everywhere in Greece.

Clean room, good restaurant. But no housekeeping the next day. And no towels when I checked into my room. A very hot summer day, and that’s when I found out that none of the hotels in Omalos have air conditioning. Lesson learned. Also, no grocery stores or mini markets in the village. Fortunately the hotel has a snack/bar area downstairs to purchase snacks and drinks.

Peaceful Omalos
I stayed for 3 days in June. The hotel is very nice. I had a room at the back overlooking the fields where I could listen to the sheep bells and look at the mountains. Room is spacious, nicely decorated and immaculately clean. I am a light sleeper but it was very quiet and the bed was very comfortable so I slept well. The breakfast was enormous and delicious. The owner's kind wife gave me fruit. I would recommend staying for more than one night to maybe walk the Irini gorge ( quite easily accessible by bus or car ) and then Samaria on second day. Relax and enjoy this peaceful place .....

Very friendly hotel in a lovely area
The Neos Omalos was unsophisticated, but a really really nice hotel. All the staff were friendly and helpful. Meals were local dishes, full of flavour and interest. Packed lunches were provided on the days we were out walking. The local area is outstanding for walking, scenery and especially the wild flowers. Samaria Gorge was still shut when we were there, but there was so much else to do we could have stayed much longer than the week we were there. Will definitely come again.

Ideal jumping off point for Samarian Gorge. Hotel was very well kept and quiet. George and staff were very friendly and helpful. Restaurant was good. Breakfast was available at 6:45am, with the free van to the gorge starting at 7:30am (before the insane crowds and heat). Would definitely stay here again.

Great Base To Start The Samaria Gorge Walk
I stayed at the hotel in order to get an early start at the Samaria Gorge walk the following morning as they run a free shuttle bus from the hotel to the head of the gorge from 7.30am.

Ottima scelta per visitare le gole di Samaria
Hotel di montagna rustico ma confortevole. Le camere sono arredate in modo semplice ed essenziale ma non manca nulla. Personale gentilissimo. Abbiamo apprezzato molto la navetta gratuita per le gole di Samaria e il fatto che il bus di rientro abbia la fermata davanti all’albergo. Buona la colazione. Ottimo il ristorante per la cena.

Nous avons passé un agréble séjour dans cet hôtel (2 nuits). Le transport gratuit (3 horaires) le matin pour aller au gorge. Nota : il n'est pas nécessaire de partir trés tôt, car l'après-midi, pour le retour, il n'y a qu'un seul ɓateau à 17h30 et il y a de la place pour tout le monde. Et les bus sont nombreux.
