Irinna Hotel

Torn, ripped, stained mattresses. Unsanitary conditions, including bathroom smelling of sewage. Water on balcony breeding mosquitoes. Became ill on holiday. Awful, dated hotel, needs total renovation. Booked through Loveholidays as an agent, and they have awful customer service.

Great location ,clean rooms with very good air conditioning.My room was simple but had a wonderful view over the countryside. Breakfast was simple ,continental style and there were plenty of places to sit inside and outside . The stafff were all very friendly ,in particular Niovi Svoronov who works in reception .She couldn’t do enough for us and nothing was too much trouble . The hotel is close to the airport which means it’s a very short transfer but there are planes coming in to land from time to time . It’s a short walk to Ammes beach which is beautiful and there are several good restaurants close by too . You can catch a bus to other beaches and Lassi and also Argostoli ,which is definitely worth a visit . I had a great,relaxing holiday and would definitely like to stay in this hotel again .

I visited again this year Irinna hotel. I choose it for the last eight years and as always it was a wonderful experience and an unforgettable vacation time. The employees are very kind and ready to help the visitors in everything they need. The rooms are very clean and comfortable and the gardens are wonderful. The hotel has two outdoor pools both very clean, one of them also very big. Breakfast is great and included in the room price and there is also great dinner service. I will definately come back next year.

Best things: trees by the pool, size of the hotel (huge), close to a lovely beach Ai Helis, was cheap. Everything else: rude man serving outside pool bar and inside bar - stares constantly so prepare for that if you’re a girl/woman in swim stuff. Rooms so unclean I would not stay here again just based on that. You come on holiday to sleep well, relax, and feel energised to explore - you won’t sleep well so won’t feel energised to explore. Mattress smelt so bad of sweat from other guests that I had to sleep on a towel and the clothes so I couldn’t smell it. No protectors on mattress or pillows. The breakfast is also very bad - sugary cheap and processed tinned peaches and mini croissants, sliced fry cake and bread to toast. Juice is entirely concentrated, coffee is from Nescafé plastic tubes. Again - you do not feel refreshed and ready to start the day, rather you had a sugar rush for an hour and then are hungry by 11:00. You will hear guests very loudly from your room - banging doors or them walking / talking in corridors. The area is so overrated, there are nice beaches (2) within 10 minutes but that is it. Nothing else unless you leave the area. No nice walks etc. It’s also like 8 out of 10 people are British, which ruined it for me (I’m British). I thought there would be more Greek culture etc but there isn’t. When you’re in the hotel you may as well be in any hot resort abroad full of brits - Spain etc. My advice: spend £150 more on a nicer hotel in a more cultured and more beautiful area of the island. I did a week in Poros first and I wish I hadn’t moved to Irinna in Svoronata. I would not come back to Irinna and I would not stay in the area again unless I was only passing through in a taxi.

Hotel is situated 3km from the airport and short walk from restaurants and tavernas. Hotel is quite basic but has everything you need, fridge and a/c in the room, continental breakfast included, pool and pool bar where you can have drinks and food as well. Pool area is lovely, always loungers available and you get the sun all day long. As the airport is so close, you’ll get to see the plains so close when they fly directly above the pool which is cool. Now the staff is the gem in this hotel.Everybody are smiling all the time and they are so friendly.Young man(sorry I didn’t catch his name) on breakfast came to have a chat almost every morning which was really nice. Despina in the reception was so friendly and lovely and helpful. They can book tours and excursions for you as well. Argostoli is a bigger village/town which is only under a half an hour bus ride away, worth to visit and the bus leaves just outside the hotel. I found the best restaurant just around the corner, under 5 minute walk away, La Camla.Such a lovely food and staff. I would return to this hotel anytime 😎

From the moment you step off the plane the air is filled with the smell of warm pine that follows you around the island. The Irinna Hotel is a short drive from the airport and is set in a quiet corner of the island surrounded by some beautiful beaches and hidden coves with the most crystal clear water. Although the hotel is in the flight path for the airport, its less of a disturbance and more of an exciting occurrence as the jets fly overhead. But the airport closes at night so don't worry about being kept up all night. The rooms are clean and simple as you'd expect in a warm country. And housekeeping are very friendly and thorough. The continental breakfast is light and everything you'd need to start your day. There is food available from the pool bar with a menu of delicious Greek cuisine. I am currently sat writing this review whilst enjoying the best greek salad that I have ever eaten! Dinner is also available at the hotel, however, you are within walking distance of numerous restaurants boasting fresh local produce and always service with a smile. Which leads me on to the staff at the Hotel Irinna. I have never encountered hotel staff that have made me feel so welcome and almost a member of their big Greek family. You are greeted by everyone you meet and they will bend over backwards to make your stay as relaxed as possible. I will definitely be returning. Hands down the best holiday of my life!

It is our last night at the Irinna Hotel. We really have enjoyed our stay, the location is a great base to venture around the island. Being close to the airport there are a number of planes that fly over the pool area which you soon get used to. The staff are very very welcoming and very professional and friendly. The pool area is very relaxing. The bedrooms are big and cleaned every day. A number of restaurants close by as well as shops which are both walkable. I really like the Irinna, it’s vintage in ways and reminds me when I used to go away with my parents. I really couldn’t fault anything about the place.

We love svoronata and have often passed this hotel and when we saw a cheap break here decided to give it a try. The hotel is dated but in a great location and the rooms are cleaned daily beds and towels changed . Breakfast is basic but fine , staff are lovely very helpful and cheerful , great big pool and they serve great lunches poolside at very reasonable prices. This is a hotel that lots of people return to over and over again because it’s great value . And I would return here just because of the lovely staff and great location hopefully be back in September .

I booked a weeks stay at the Irinna Hotel as the 3* hotel I wanted to book was full, so I booked this hotel as it was also showing as a 3* hotel on the booking site I used and very near to Ammes Beach. When I arrived my gut feeling was that it looked very worn out and in desperate need of renovating. The path leading up to the entrance was broken up and I would have struggled had I brought a suitcase instead of a rucksack. At check-in I was given my room key which was a Big Old style key on a big, heavy metal fob with the room number on it. As I made my way to my room I looked around at the decor which looked 1980's style. The only way I could describe the room door as it was like a prison cell door, which made me understand why the key was so big. The room was a decent size with 2 single beds which were very comfortable, but no blankets, just the sheet to cover you. I was shocked at the TV, which again looked like it had been there since the 1980's and needless to say didn't give a good enough of a picture to watch tv. The fridge was good for me as I only had Coca Colas or Beer in it. The bathroom was not good, with cracks in the Sink, Toilet and Bath. The shower hose did not reach the wall bracket so any shower had to be whilst holding the shower head in my hand and the shower curtain looked like a big piece of blue plastic that had been cut to size. I had booked on a Full-Board basis, but had arrived after 10pm so had missed dinner that night, so I asked the times of the breakfast and evening meals for the next day. The receptionist informed me of the times, but stated that if I wanted an evening meal, I would have to inform reception after breakfast, which I did the next day and had to give my room number. When I had my evening meal, I started to leave the dining area and was chased by a member of staff shouting to me asking me if I was going to pay for my meal, which was very embarrassing in front of all the other guests in the dining room, to which I said that I had paid. Of course he didn't understand me (How can someone ask if you are going to pay, but cannot understand when you say you have paid?) He understood when I said I was going to get my paperwork and go to reception and I made a point of speaking to him every day to check his English and his English was good. I got my paperwork and went to reception with it (Same receptionist as when I checked in the night before) and she made some feeble excuse of their printer not working, but it would have been sent to them on an email from the booking agent and if the printer is not working they could use their hands and a pen. I informed her how embarrassing it was to be shouted to and accused of not not paying in front of all the other guests and her reply was "Then why did you come to reception this morning and tell me that you wanted a meal tonight?" I told her "Because you told me to when I checked in last night" I could not get the Air-con working for 3 nights, each of which the mosqui
