Gardens, a large pool and easy family logistics
Amalia solves the practical problems that Nafplio’s beautiful old buildings create. Its low-rise rooms spread through extensive gardens at the town entrance, with private balconies or terraces and interconnecting options giving families genuine space. A large seasonal pool, gym, tennis court, restaurant, pool café and summer barbecue allow for a restorative hotel day between Mycenae, Epidaurus and Palamidi. Parking is free and straightforward, and the 24-hour reception handles the rhythm of a full-scale hotel. For a Peloponnese road trip with children or a car full of luggage, those advantages are substantial.
The old town is 2.5 kilometres away. It is not a pleasant casual walk, especially after dinner, so guests should budget for driving or taxis and accept that drinks on the waterfront require planning. With 170 rooms and conference business, the atmosphere can become group-oriented, and buffet meals are less personal than Nafplio’s independent restaurants. Some rooms retain a traditional, slightly dated look, the pool is seasonal, and the tennis court or other services may need advance confirmation. Expedia’s 9.0 score from 624 reviews shows a dependable rather than intimate hotel. Amalia is the right choice for pools, gardens, parking and family facilities—not for stepping straight into the old town.
