Hotel Loutraki
Family-run, forty metres from the beach, spa baths in some rooms
About this hotel
The renovated rooms split between mountain and sea balconies, and since the rate barely reflects the difference the orientation has to be asked for rather than assumed. Some rooms add a spa bath, which is a fitting detail in a town whose reputation was built on hot water, and each comes with a flat-screen TV, mini fridge, free toiletries and a hairdryer. Being family-run shows in the continental breakfast and the way the front desk handles arrivals. The position is the strongest part: forty metres from the beach in the town centre, with bars, restaurants, seaside cafes and Casino Loutraki all within a walk, the hot springs a short stroll away and the bus terminal twenty metres from the door.
- Renovated rooms with balconies
- Some rooms with spa bath
- Continental breakfast
- Free parking nearby
Our take
A well-placed, honestly priced base with a 9.2 score, though only six reviews back it so far. The bus terminal twenty metres away makes it the obvious pick for travellers arriving from Athens without a car, and the spa-bath rooms add something the neighbours lack. Anyone wanting a pool, a lift or hotel-scale service should choose a three-star address on the seafront instead.
- ✓Ask for a renovated room with a spa bath and a sea balcony, as only some rooms combine both.
- ✓Take the bus from Athens and walk the twenty metres from the terminal rather than paying for a transfer.
- ✓Walk to the hot springs before breakfast, when the streets behind the seafront are still empty.
Why we love it
- Spa baths in some of the renovated rooms

Why guests love itI would recommend Hotel Loutraki to families arriving by bus who want the beach close by. The family-run two-star hotel sits in the centre of Loutraki, forty metres from the beach, and the renovated, air-conditioned rooms open onto balconies with mountain or sea views, some with a spa bath. Continental breakfast and free WiFi are included, the bus terminal is twenty metres away and free parking is nearby. No pool or lift is listed. A rating of 9.2 from 6 reviews is a short record.
