    We drove by it twice before we found it, so perhaps a more visible sign.

    The breakfasts were lovely, the courtyard an oasis, interesting books and history of a bygone time. Katerina a lovely lady willing to sit and chat if you have an inquisitive mind.

    Nothing, everything was perfect.

    Beautiful property, a truly mesmerising stay spent here. The location is perfect, away from the tourist crowds. Somewhere to truly unwind, get lost in the dreamy views of this traditional kefalonian palace. Katerina, the owner was a fantastic host. She looked after us, made us a delicious breakfast with local ingredients. We spent our mornings on the terrace listening to music and admiring the hilltop views. This was such a special stay. We hope to come back again!

    it was perfect for our short weekend stay.

    Katerina was such a joy to meet. Our plane was delayed and we didn’t arrive until after midnight and she was still there at the doorway to greet us. Myself and my two kids had fascinating conversations with her over a delicious breakfast. This feels like staying at her home rather than a hotel. She gave us some great recommendations of places to go.

    We were fortunate to arrange a night at the Museum Hotel George to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary. From the minute we walked through the arched wooden gates, we were not just transported back in time but into tranquility. This is truly a unique and beautiful hotel, and the attention to detail in the restoration is outstanding. Katerina is a wonderful host and greeted us with a bottle of fizz and fresh fruit. Our room was beautifully decorated with antique furniture and interesting memorabilia. The bathroom had olive oil toiletries, slippers, and robes. The breakfast was delightful with fresh fruit, freshly squeezed orange juice, yogurt, organic muesli, homemade bread, and coffee. Katerina just oozes everything a host should be and made us feel very welcome and at home. Having invested 15 years of her life into the restoration and running of the hotel, you can hear the passion in her voice when talking about Museum Hotel George. We could have spent days listening to her stories. We would have loved to have had the pleasure of dining with Katerina, but like many in the hospitality trade, Katerina lost her staff during COVID, has struggled to reemploy and so there is just not enough of her to go around. I would have honestly given up my summer term holiday to help in lieu of staying in the magic bubble of the Museum Hotel George Molfetas. It is truly magical, and thank you once again, Katerina, for the book. I will treasure it forever.

    What an amazing experience staying with Katerina. She has devoted herself to restoring this exceptional building and also providing the best hospitality I've ever received. The service reflects the soulful dedication Katerina has given her life's work- its perfection! Katerina gave us her attention and her heart (Noah the dog too) we loved hearing about the journey she has taken with this hotel and tasting her homemade breakfast and liquor. You will never find better. As one of her few crazy tourists to come without a car she included us on her own trip out so we could see Argostoli and also dropped us at a local restaurant (Family grill, great food). The mini market two minutes away was super friendly and made homecooked meals which I'd definitely try if i were you. Lovely to hang out with the locals and take in the village life atmosphere. I enjoyed walking around the back streets of the village and finding the odd walnut or lemon tree to liberate of its fruit. I would liked to have seen more of the area. I fully recommend booking this accommodation and allowing yourself to meet Katerina and her work of art.

    My stay at this property was a total joy in every possible way!!. The hotel is unique, fascinating, eclectic, historically intriguing. Very clean, with lovely white cotton bedding, a very comfortable bed. The en suite bathroom was gorgeous with great power shower and lovely olive oil products. The breakfast was delectable, fresh local yoghurt and honey, seasonal fruit, freshly squeezed orange juice, Homemade bread!. A joy. But even more wonderful still was Gustave Mahler playing in the stunning garden whilst l was surrounded by bougainvillea with a cold beer,..heaven. In the evening the fragrance of Jasmine was beautiful. But, what l loved most was Katerina, my host, a inspirational lady, whose warmth sets a standard for all to marvel at. She is adorable. Thank you so so much dear Katerina

    What a wonderful hotel! Katerina made us feel very welcome from the moment we arrived, and since we were the only guests for much of our stay we had many interesting conversations with her concerning the history of the property, Kefalonia, off the beaten track places to visit, etc. etc. The main thing about the hotel is the character and personality that Katerina has imbued it with. A truly unique place!

    Although the breakfast served was tasty, and Katarina prepared different kind of pastries most of the days, it would be nice to have an option for a savory breakfast as well.

    The location of the Museum hotel is perfect and really close to Argostoli, Kefalonia's capital. The place is unique and charming, each room speaks for itself. Katarina, the owner, did a great job in decorating the place. I personally loved the terrace the most, it is a peaceful place at night, and in the morning to have your coffee (the coffee prepared was really nice). Katarina was a great host, and even upgraded our room to a bigger one upon our arrival. Euharistume!

    We wish we could stay longer 🙂

    In one simple sentence, this hotel oozes character. Everything in it, from the smallest ornament to the biggest piece of furniture has an interesting history. The owner has curated every little detail and will take extremely good care of you: starting from the delicious breakfast to the several tips on where to go for the best swim or food. We have never had anything similar in plenty of travels…
