Alsos House  

In Kalambaka’s Old Town, literally in the shadow of the towering Alsos rock and minutes from Meteora’s cliff monasteries. A short walk to the Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary and within easy reach of the Geological Museum of Meteora. Family-friendly and pet-friendly guesthouse perfect for Meteora day trips and hikes.

Small, 10-room guesthouse with individually furnished guestrooms and private balconies in some rooms. Rooms feature Tempur-Pedic beds with Egyptian cotton sheets, refrigerators, tablet computers, LED TVs, and in some categories all-in-one washer/dryers. Expect simple, comfortable décor and cliff or town views that make early mornings worth waking for.

Full-service spa with massages, body treatments and facials, plus an attached winery and bicycles to rent for exploring the rocks. Lobby fireplace, terrace and garden, a library, picnic area and a shared kitchen add low-key charm. Free self-parking and a shuttle (surcharge) make arrivals easy — and you can wake up to Meteora sunrises.

Complimentary wired and wireless internet throughout. Limo/town car service, express check-in and roundtrip airport or train station shuttles available for a surcharge.

Coffee shop/café on site and a relaxed bar/lounge for evening drinks. Buffet breakfasts are served daily (for a fee) and limited-hour room service is available. The on-site winery and local flavors pair well with regional Greek dishes nearby.
