A propriedade — Kostas
Kostas is a straightforward, family-run 3-star spot on Corfu's northeastern coast, about a 15-minute walk from the old town's Venetian lanes. The lobby feels like a sunlit, tiled hall with a reception desk that's always staffed by a relative, a bowl of local kumquat sweets and the sound of mopeds filtering through the open front door. It suits budget-conscious couples or solo travellers who want a clean, no-frills base with a small pool and don't mind basic breakfast spreads. The USP is its unpretentious, genuinely Greek hospitality and a location that puts you within easy reach of the town's main sights and the ferry to Albania.
Crónicas de Corfu
Corfu Town (Kerkyra) was founded in the 8th century BC by Corinthians and quickly became a strategic Byzantine outpost. Its defining architectural character comes from four centuries of Venetian rule (1386–1797), which gave it the arcaded streets, fortified esplanades, and pastel-coloured, shuttered houses you see today. After a brief period of French occupation and a British protectorate, Corfu unified with Greece in 1864. The old town is a UNESCO World Heritage site, and its contemporary culture remains proudly Ionian and cosmopolitan, mixing Greek Orthodox traditions with Italianate café society and a vibrant music scene tied to the Philharmonic orchestras.

Livro City Briefing — Corfu
- The new Corfu Town pedestrian zone on the Spianada (Esplanade) was extended in late 2025, now covering the area from the Liston arcades to the Palace of St Michael and St George — expect cleaner, quieter walking but limited car access for taxis and hotel drop-offs.
- The Corfu Airport runway upgrade, announced for 2024-2025, appears to be on schedule, reducing summer flight delays by roughly 30% according to Fraport Greece; check your airline's schedule for potential last-minute changes.
- A popular new all-day bougatsa shop, 'To Steno', opened on Nikiforou Theotoki in March 2026, serving custard-filled pastry with cinnamon and sesame — a handy spot for a quick breakfast near the hotel.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Kostas, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the first or second floor facing the rear courtyard rather than the street. These rooms are quieter and get good morning light. The property has no lift, so lower floors save you lugging bags up stairs.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the ground floor near the reception or breakfast area – they get early morning noise from staff and guests. Also skip top-floor rooms (third floor and above) if you have heavy luggage, as there’s no lift.
Best views
Corfu’s old town is dense, so aim for a courtyard-facing room. Those at the back often overlook a peaceful garden or neighbouring rooftops, with glimpses of the sea from upper floors.
Quietest floors
First and second floors are the quietest: enough elevation to avoid street-level bustle but not high enough to require many stairs.
🔊 Noise notes
Street-facing rooms will pick up moped and pedestrian noise from the narrow roads, especially in summer evenings when tavernas and bars are busy. The hotel’s old-town location means thin walls – you may hear neighbours.
Insider tips
1. Check in after 2pm to avoid the breakfast-cleanup noise. 2. If you have mobility concerns, request a ground-floor room in advance – the lack of lift is a real issue for upper floors.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Principais atrações em Corfu
💡 If you're visiting on a Sunday morning, you'll see a cricket match—Corfu is the only place in Greece where the sport is played regularly. Buy a cheese pie from a nearby bakery and sit by the Maitland Rotunda.
💡 Go just before 5pm if you want to hear the local women crowd in for the evening litany. Dress modestly—shoulders and knees covered. The reliquary can be kissed after the service if you follow the queue.
💡 Skip the cable car tourist train and walk from the end of the bus line (green bus from San Rocco Square, 1.50 euros). For a swim, take the little boat from the pier below the monastery to Vido Island—free if you swim across from the mainland (200m).
💡 Bring water and wear sturdy shoes—there are many steep steps and no shade. Entry costs 6 euros (2024), but the permanent archaeological exhibition inside is included.
💡 Entry is 4 euros, but free on the first Sunday of each month (November to March). The museum is small—you can do it properly in 45 minutes. Combine it with a walk through the nearby Anemomylos neighborhood for a coffee stop.
