This was a last-minute booking and fortunately we got the last room in the house. reasonably priced based on the very decent accommodations which included breakfast. The owner was very friendly and courteous both when we arrived and on departure. Stepping out on the balcony allowed us to see the ocean which was a welcome surprise and brought in a cool breeze into the room.

They are a really friendly and welcoming family, we felt very well taken care of with them. The rooms are really well-sized, clean and functional. In the morning we were given freshly baked cake o take away with us on our journey free of charge, and it was delicious!

Nice little guesthouse close to tombs
In the village so easy to find even at night, free on site parking, quiet, 5 minutes walk to the tombs and village centre for dinner. Very nice breakfast individually prepared, helpful owner, lots of friendly cats in the garden!

This home stay is literally a stone throw away from the King Phillip's tombs about 150 mts down the road. Location is perfect. Rooms are spacious and clean and have A/C. Plenty of private parking space available

Great place to stay
It was great. The family who run this guest house are extremely helpful. Plenty of information about the local area, guide books, maps etc., advice about places to eat. Breakfast is recommended- ours increased in size every day! And it is on the edge of the village, so rural- but less than a few minutes walk to the stunning archaeology one way and the village centre the other. You can sit on the balcony and watch the sun travel over the mountains.

Excellent! We had a relaxing wonderful stay here wanting to be close to King Phillips tomb which us just down the street. The owners are very hospitable and have a wealth of local knowledge-their son by as studied archeology and printed out maps f ou r us of the nearby sites including the palace archeologists are restoring on nearby hill. The rooms were immaculate and breakfast was customized to our personal preferences many times with fresh local ingredients. We highly recommend this guesthouse

Greek hospitality at its finest.
We had a wonderful time in vergina. The hosts were incredibly warm and welcoming. We felt right at home, like we were staying with family. Highly recommend this hotel within walking distance of the tombs.

Good value guesthouse.
Great staff, very comfortable bed, excellent breakfast, WiFi, good position for visiting the tombs and a good position if you are looking for a break whilst traveling the ignatia highway. The bathroom, especially the shower would benefit from updating.

A taste of the real rural Greece
We stayed for three nights in October 2014. The guesthouse was very comfortable and the hosts could not do enough to make our stay ' home away from home'.

Guesthouse in Vergina near the Royal Tombs
The guesthouse is a family-run business and the family that owns it is absolutely lovely and extremely friendly, always happy to help or even just chat. Breakfast was a large spread including local produce (some home-made), and the rooms comfortable and tastefully furnished. They also had balconies (ours with a view towards the mountains). Parking and internet were free, and tea (usually with something homemade) was on offer in the afternoons. There were also signs to it from the edge of town, which was helpful.

Simply the best!
Everything about our stay here was perfect. The hotel is run by a tremendously warm and welcoming family - Maria, Spiros, Thomas and Olympia - who make you feel completely at home and so well looked after. Nothing is too much trouble for them. Our room was beautifully clean and well presented, the beds were extremely comfortable, the breakfasts are to die for (all the fruit, salad and olives is home-grown), and Maria gave us bowls of fruit to take to our room each evening - not to mention her fabulous home-made cake. Thomas, the son of the family, is enormously knowledgeable about the area and keen to help, advise and lend books and maps. And when I managed to leave my passport behind, Spiros drove all the way to Thessaloniki bus station to give it back to me. Truly this is a very special place run by the kindest and most thoughtful hosts you could hope to meet. The exceptional museum of the royal tombs is only a couple of minutes' walk away. And don't miss the School of Aristotle at Mieza, where Alexander the Great spent three of his adolescent years absorbing the wisdom of the greatest philosopher who has ever lived! (Thomas will tell you how to get there). We hope to return to Olympia Guesthouse and we highly recommend it to anyone visiting this interesting and beautiful area.

Un très bon choix pour visiter Vergina/Aigai
Situé tout à côté du tombeau de Philippe de Macédoine, dans un quartier calme et paisible (avec cris du coq et aboiements parce qu'on est un peu a la campagne !), avec un petit terrain de parking pr y mettre son véhicule, je ne peux que recommander cet établissement familial simple mais de grande qualité ! La chambre etait propre, tres spacieuse, pas eu besoin de clim , un grand lit, pas de bruit, rideaux très occultants, petit balcon , c'était parfait ! Et petits déjeuners au choix faits maison et a l'heure préférée. Les gérants sont charmants. Merci ! A great stay, thanks !

Kuscheliges Gästehaus in ruhiger Lage
Das Gästehaus liegt am Rand von Vergina in der Nähe der Grabstätten und des ehemaligen königlichen Palastes von Philipp II., dem Vater Alexander des Großen. Das Gästehaus bietet 10 gemütlich eingerichtete Zimmer in ruhiger Lage. Der Empfang und die Betreuung war immer sehr freundlich und hilfreich. Wir bekamen Karten unserer geplanten Route mit Geheimtipps, was auf der Strecke noch sehenswürdig ist oder welches Restaurant empfohlen wird. Das optionale Frühstück ist sehr lecker mit selbst gebackenen Gebäckstücken.

Op werpafstand van de koninklijke graven
Het hotel ligt vlakbij dé attractie van Vergina , vlak bij verschillende horecazaakjes en in een zéér rustige buurt . Enkel als de bussen vol toeristen aankomen wordt het druk , maar dan enkel in de richting van de koninklijke grafkelders . Het dorpje op zich heeft echter wel weinig te bieden , als de toeristen weg zijn sterft het langzaam uit .

hotel très bien tenu, sens du service
hotel simple mais bien équipé, très bien tenu. Juste à côté du musée archéologique de Vergina bon accueil en arrivant, n'hésite pas à téléphoner pour obtenir des infos touristiques pour vous (exemple: sur les possibilités de visiter tel monastère proche ) Echanges intéressants avec le jeune et dynamique responsable de l'hotel Après notre départ, nous avons constaté à l'aéroport de Thessalonique que nous avions laissé la carte d'identité dans la chambre. Support incroyable de l'hotel pour échanger avec les responsables de la compagnie aérienne pour trouver des solutions, transmettre un scan de la carte d'identité à l'aéroport...

Ein echter Glücksfall!!!
Ein ganz wunderbares Hotel bzw. Guesthouse, ganz zentral und doch vollkommen ruhig im malerischen VERGINA auf einer grünen Anhöhe gelegen; zu den archäologischen Highlights nur ein Katzensprung entfernt. Das Betreiber-Ehepaar ist unglaublich sympathisch und man fühlte sich bei ihnen sofort wohl; eben die griechische Gastfreundschaft im im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes. Besser kann man wohl kaum wohnen – zumal für solch einen günstigen Preis – alleine das Frühstück mit all den hausgemachten Konfitüren, delikaten Teigwaren und Oliven aus eigenem Anbau ... in einem überaus geschmackvoll eingerichteten Speisesaal mit luftiger Terrasse. Und am Ende der schmalen Straße liegen drei lauschige Tavernen, in denen man mittags oder am Abend die typischen Köstlichkeiten der Region sehr preiswert kredenzt bekommt. Ich hatte einfach nur Glück, ein solch tolles Hotel gefunden zu haben, denn aus dem großen Angebot der Pensionen dieser Region stach es eigentlich gar nicht ins Auge! Aber das absolute Highlight ist und bleibt das ca. 300 Meter entfernte Hügel-Grab von Phillip von Makedonien, zu dem der Hotelbetreiber unendlich viel zu berichten wusste.
