Amalia Hotel Meteora
Olympic-size pool and garden terrace near the monasteries
About this hotel
Built from traditional materials with beamed ceilings, this four-star hotel centres its public areas around a lounge bar with fireplace and a piano bar, alongside two restaurants serving Greek and international menus. The Olympic-size pool and furnished sun terrace, set among gardens, give the property more resort-scale amenities than most Kastraki addresses. Rooms are spacious, air-conditioned, and decorated with dark wooden furnishings and soft colours, each with a bathroom, hairdryer and free toiletries. Six meeting rooms suit small events or groups, and extra services include a 24-hour front desk, luggage storage and car rental. The monasteries themselves, twenty-four in total scattered across the Meteora rocks, sit within reach, with Kalampaka town six kilometres away.
- Large outdoor pool
- Two on-site restaurants
- 24-hour front desk
- Car rental available
Our take
This suits groups and families wanting resort-scale amenities, a proper pool and multiple dining options rather than a smaller boutique stay, with the trade-off being a six-kilometre distance from Kalampaka's centre and further still from the closest monastery gates. Couples wanting quiet, intimate Kastraki stays should look elsewhere. Anyone hosting a small meeting or event will find the six meeting rooms a genuine draw.
- ✓Book a pool-facing room if the Olympic-size pool is the main draw, not every room overlooks the garden terrace.
- ✓Try both restaurants across a multi-night stay, one leans Greek, the other international.
- ✓Use the property's car rental desk if you plan to visit several monasteries in one day, the distance from here adds up.
Why we love it
- Olympic-size pool and garden terrace

- Lounge bar with fireplace and piano bar
- Six meeting rooms for groups
Why guests love itAmalia Hotel Meteora is a four-star hotel six kilometres from the centre of Kalampaka, with an Olympic-size pool, a garden sun terrace, two restaurants and a lounge bar with a fireplace. The pool is a real asset for children after a hot morning at the monasteries, and dinner on site avoids an evening drive. Rooms are spacious with dark wooden furniture. I would choose it for families with a car who want resort facilities near Meteora.
