The Best Hotels to Book in Corinth for Every Traveller

Pack yourself a comfortable pair of sandals and prepare for funky foot tan lines during your stay at this one-bedroom apartment in Loutraki. With the beach just steps away, you’ll find yourself strolling between the sea and your outdoor hot tub throughout the day. If you aren’t interested in putting your skills to the test in the kitchen, you’ll find plenty of Greek restaurants within a 15-minute walk. With the fun of Casino Loutraki en route, you may even be tempted to be late for your reservation.

Laid-back leisure is the name of the game at the Arion Hotel. After taking an afternoon nap in your double room, step out to explore Loutraki, for which everything – the beach, taverns, thermal spa and main shops included – is within easy walking distance. Take a load off and take your holiday at an easy pace at this hotel near Corinth – there’s perhaps no better place to wind down in Loutraki.

With its free buffet, mini hot tubs in the bathrooms and a rooftop garden with panoramic views, Hotel Mantas Seaside feels more like a luxurious cruise ship than a hotel in Corinth. After a few local brews at the lobby bar, you may be out to sea mentally, but you won’t ever be far from Corinth city centre, a 15-minute taxi ride away. Housed in a glass-walled room, even the indoor pool gets some sunshine.

We’re pretty sure the only reason these seafront suites have soundproof windows is so no one can hear you scream in delight when you discover the sea view from your bed. Soak in more Corinthian Gulf vistas from your private terrace or borrow a Coco-mat wooden bicycle from the lobby and follow the music to the buzzing Cocoon beach bar nearby. Located in Loutraki, the studios are well placed for exploring the sprawling Club Hotel Casino Loutraki and Loutraki Thermal Spa.

Hotel Pappas feels like the ultimate Greek oasis after a long travel day – even with your kids in tow. Between the shores of the Corinthian Gulf and your superior room with Gerania Mountain views, you’ll find a waterfront playground and pool. Recharge with a strong drink and calamari at Apolafsi Tavern, before grabbing a beach ball from the lobby and a seat at the hotel’s more casual beach bar.

A coastal village slightly west of Corinth city, Lechaio has a shingle beach and pretty, low-rise architecture. Enalio Suites sits right on the water, with a lap pool and comfy loungers in a tranquil garden. Inside, dove-grey sofas and chic, exposed-stone walls add to the relaxing vibe. An al fresco hot tub and a cushioned sun deck add a touch of luxury, and meditative sea-view balconies make this a soothing post-sightseeing stopover.

This large-scale resort in beachy Isthmia – at the other end of the Corinth Canal on the Saronic Gulf, 15 minutes from Corinth – has its own tennis courts, kids’ club, nightclub and parasol-shaded beach loungers served by a handy cocktail bar. A vast poseur’s pool dominates manicured waterfront gardens, and rooms come in calming shades of pale grey and unvarnished pine. The Saronic View Restaurant echoes the silvery leaves of the olive trees that decorate it, serving up prettily presented seafood and salads.

This stylish boutique hotel is set around a smart wooden deck, behind which pristine, minimalist sea-view rooms – plus a couple of stand-alone bungalows – cocoon a well-dressed set of guests amid polished-concrete floors, marbled bathrooms and balconies. The well-regarded Perla restaurant serves up freshly baked rolls and quinoa salads at sunbaked al fresco tables, and a stunning infinity pool looks out over the sparkling Gulf of Corinth.

Given that there’s a sizeable casino on site, guests should be prepared for the Vegas-esque palms, sculpted columns and echoing marble lobby that greet them at this seaside behemoth. Faded grandeur defines the room decor, but the facilities are generous and include a cavernous spa with indoor pools, a spacious gym, buffet restaurant and a selection of outdoor pools. It’s surprisingly family-friendly, too, with kids’ club activities and a lazy river on the grounds.

Located in relaxed, seafront Isthmia, Kalamaki boasts a show-stopping pool terrace: all sculptural white loungers and prim parasols in perfectly spaced rows, set around a blinding turquoise swimming pool with a decorative mini-temple. Just metres away are the clear waters of the Saronic Gulf, accessed via a grainy shingle beach. Inside, you’ll find a calm, light-flooded lobby and simple red, white and gold rooms. Should you want to get hitched, there’s also a petite whitewashed Greek chapel on the grounds.
