À propos
Alkaios Rooms offre une base accueillante aux voyageurs qui explorent la capitale animée de Lesbos. Nommée dans l'esprit d'Alkaios, le poète lyrique antique né à Mytilène il y a plus de deux millénaires et demi, la maison d'hôtes rend un discret hommage à l'extraordinaire patrimoine littéraire de l'île. Séjourner ici place les clients au cœur de la ville de Mytilène, où la promenade animée du front de mer, les kafeneions traditionnels et le marché couvert sont tous facilement accessibles à pied.
Les chambres offrent un hébergement confortable et sans prétention, adapté aux voyageurs indépendants qui souhaitent s'immerger dans la vie quotidienne de l'île plutôt que de se retirer dans un complexe hôtelier. Mytilène elle-même récompense ceux qui s'attardent – l'impressionnant château génois-byzantin surplombant le port, la belle collection d'antiquités du musée archéologique et les distilleries d'ouzo pour lesquelles Lesbos est justement célèbre sont tous à proximité. La ville sert également de plaque tournante pratique pour les liaisons par ferry et les excursions d'une journée vers le reste de l'île.
Pour les visiteurs qui préfèrent le caractère aux chaînes hôtelières, Alkaios Rooms offre un moyen simple et abordable de s'installer dans le rythme de Mytilène. Le quartier environnant révèle la nature stratifiée de cette ville portuaire – des demeures de l'époque ottomane côtoyant des maisons de ville néoclassiques, des bateaux de pêche au quai, et le parfum du poisson fraîchement grillé qui s'élève chaque soir des tavernes en bord de mer.
Avant de partir
À quoi s'attendre
Les matins commencent ici avec le bruit du port qui s'éveille — bateaux de pêche, embarcadère des ferries à quelques minutes à pied et parfum de pain frais venant des boulangeries du quartier. On pose ses bagages et l'on se retrouve immédiatement plongé dans le quotidien d'une vraie ville portuaire grecque. Les rues alentour récompensent qui les arpente lentement : façades néoclassiques adossées à de vieilles pierres, et kafeneions déjà animés dès le matin.
Quand y aller
Mytilène est une ville vivante toute l'année ; le printemps (avril–mai) et l'automne (septembre–octobre) offrent un temps doux et moins d'affluence.
Comment s'y rendre
Alkaios Rooms se trouve au cœur même de Mytilène — les voyageurs arrivant par ferry depuis Le Pirée peuvent rejoindre la pension à pied en moins de dix minutes depuis le port, et l'aéroport n'est qu'à quelques minutes en taxi.

I stayed at Alkaidos Rooms for 10 nights, and they were incredibly helpful. The breakfast was nice, and the beautiful garden with the orange trees smelled amazing. The room was very clean and warm during my stay in March. The location is perfect, right in the heart of the city, with everything just a minute's walk away and lovely shops nearby. Despite being centrally located, it's a quiet and charming area. The owner, Theodoros, was exceptionally helpful and kind. It's situated in a beautiful old Greek mansion, and my family has enjoyed staying at this hotel throughout the years. We all plan to come again. I will definitely recommend this place and look forward to returning.

Cozy rooms, the family who runs the place made us instantly feel very welcome and at home. They also provided us with a lot of information and places to visit in this beautiful island. The building itself is also full of character! Added bonus if you visit during spring, as the garden smells amazing from the blossoming trees and flowers! Will definitely visit again!

We stayed there for 2 nights with my husband. The only good thing is location. The Hotel is very close to city centre. The street where the hotel is located is very narrow. So finding a car park is difficult. We stayed first floor. Hotel is wooden building that’s why there is no sound insulation. I woke up every morning at 5:30 am because of the people of the upstairs. No hot water in the bathroom. No shampoo or conditioner etc. Since the shower curtain is made of vinyl, all the water from the shower leaked outside. Everyday same breakfast serviced and inadequate. Garden is nice. Receptionist woman can speak just a little bit Turkish as well. Wi-Fi was ok.

Alkaios rooms are accessible on foot from the port; you could walk everywhere. By the garden are few tables for having a breakfeast and/or sipping a coffee. The breakfast is not really rich but there is a close bakery for enriching your breakfast. The owner is really helpful. The only negative point is that the bathroom was outdated; not really comfortable.

My family has stayed in a room that is offered by this establishment. Hygiene (unclean toilet, dirty bath) and poor room condition (mold on walls, furniture in bad condition and broken showerhead) were least of their problems compared to the woman (employee or employer of the hotel, who knows) who choose to (literally) yell at them early in the morning in response to their complaints. They faced an uncivilized and primitive approach by that woman just because they verbally addressed their complaints to the reception desk. Yelling and physically walking up to a customer just for addressing a complaint is unacceptable.

Picturesque small hotel in the heart of Mitilini town. Offers breakfast and a good size rooms. Needs to provide better quality cleaning. The room was unfortunately very dusty! However, everyday change of towels and rubbish and every 3 days cleaning service which needs to be updated. Staff was polite and helpful. Allowed me to stay after check out hours as I was travelling late. Will definetly go back!

What a charming little Hotel in the Center of Mytilini. You can feel and see that everything is done well and with great passion.!The crew is super friendly and very helpful during the time I stayed there. The offer a good breakfast as well where you might find all you like to have in the morning. In the room even if they are tiny you find sockets almost everywhere and the closet has enough hangers for your cloth. You have hot water heater together with a section of tea and instant coffee. Even a little refrigerator and a hairdryer is placed in the room with great care. Don’t go you might feel comfortable and like to stay forever.
