Gouvia Hotel

Good for family!!! Good swimming pool, good food, good staff

Lovely little hotel a stones throw away from a pretty little pebble bay perfect for a refreshing dip. The staff were extremely helpful, polite and friendly at all times. The hotel is very quiet and peaceful with a lovely large pool and lots of sun beds, the whole hotel is kept clean and our rooms were refreshed daily with clean towels and bath mats, beds made and bins emptied. The rooms were of a good size for us as we only use them as a base for exploring, lots of storage, a hairdryer and tv. The aircon unit is noisy and old so could do with replacing, the downside being a dated and tiny bathroom with a very tiny window that did not open, so by the end of the week it was very damp and smelly. The water is mixed with salt water. Food was delicious, we are not fussy and like to try everything, no English tea so take your own if you like a morning cuppa. Gouvia is the perfect base to explore Corfu, the local shop and bar owners are super helpful and friendly.

Dad: Friendly staff. Stayed one day half board. Good food portions (3 course). Buffet breakfast. Daughter:i think it was good for the price. There was a fairly sized pool with a shallow end and a really deep end(2.5m) however, the bed sheets where useless and it wasnt as comfortable as it could have been. There was an air conditioner though. The food portions where a good amount and tge staff where really nice and friendly. They also are quite quick with the food. Another thing is that there are lots of cats here, they dont attack however.

Pokey rooms. Small bathroom.

We stayed about 4 nights at the hotel. The room was very very small especially the bathroom but there was a balcony. Unfortunately the hotel overlooks a very busy street especially at night so it is quite noisy. You also have to pay extra for the air conditioner! There also seemed to be a problem with the water as the pressure was very low at around 6pm every night and on one night there was no water at all. On the upside, the hotel has a pool, is very close to lots of restaurants, the beach and the bus stop.

Just returned from a lovely 10 night stay at Hotel Gouvia. The hotel is ideally located in central Gouvia and is an ideal base for a holiday in Corfu. The room we opted for was basic but suited our needs during our stay. The room was cleaned daily with fresh bedding and towels each time. We stayed on a bed and breakfast basis which was ideal for us. The breakfast is plentiful with a wide range of fresh fruits, cereal, yogurt, cakes & pastries and a great selection of hot foods such as eggs bacon tomatoes and savoury pastries to name a few. The staff are friendly and always on hand to offer advice about days out and places of interest. I swim daily when at home so for me the pool was a massive bonus as it is a decent size where you can actually swim and was not full of kids on inflatables like you get in other places. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely return if we visited Corfu again. Thanks to everyone who made our holiday a pleasant one. Yammas!
