Hotel Odysseon is located on the main road that crossed through Kalampaka and leads to Meteora. It is a small hotel that creates a cosy and friendly atmosphere, offering its unique hospitality all through the year.
The hotel's location has considerable advamtages to provide to the modern traveler; a captivating view of the imperious rocks od Meteora and of the vast plain of Thessaly, spreading below like a fossilized ancient sea.
Enjoy this endless view simply from your room's balcony.
It only takes a ramble through the "stone forest" of Meteora to discover medieval Greece and the monasteries and churches of the area. Climb up the tops of the rocks and admire these gigantic rocks that extend from the ground and reach the sky, as if carved by the titans very own hands, only to leave all visitors in awe.
As daylight slowly fades and night wears on, a magical twilight with breathtaking colours turns the sky and the rocks into an impressionistic scenery. The rocks are veiled in mystery as the artificial, dim night light is shed upon them, producing a sensation difficult to forget.
The Holy Monasteries of Meteora are included in the World Heritage List of UNESCO. There used to be a total of 24 monasteries, 6 out of which still exist today.
