Loved the staff, the decor, the service, the food. Nice big bedroom and bathroom! Great a/c! Beautiful lighting everywhere in the hotel. The kitchen accommodated our early departure by making a takeaway breakfast for us! Lovely Al fresco dining area.

Bed was a little hard and there were no blackout curtains. A lot of light was coming in around the door. Impossible to blacken the room. That was the only negative.

A magical stay in Acanthus Blue.From the moment we arrived, Christos, Alexandra, and Stratos went above and beyond to make us feel at home — their warmth, attentiveness, and genuine hospitality made all the difference. The hotel itself is full of character and charm, with beautifully preserved details that give it a timeless, elegant feel. Everything was spotless — it’s clear how much care goes into maintaining the space. We felt completely at ease and so well looked after. Acanthus Blue is more than just a hotel — it’s an experience we’ll never forget. Thank you for everything.

Ample breakfast, combination between a continental and traditional english breakfast. Able to order more if hungry, but generally the standard serving is substantial. Beautiful location - only 5 minutes from the airport and about a 15 min walk into old town. Plenty of restaurants that are nearby, that are "off the beaten track"

Whilst the aircon was fine, I do think it could be stronger to help with airflow. Electronics could improve - no modern ports which you find in most hotels and I wasn't able to connect my phone to the TV or some sort of speaker.

This small hotel is a delight , The staff are very friendly and helpful. The hotel has the most wonderful rear garden courtyard where you have breakfast, which again is first class. The night we stayed there was live jazz being played whilst dinner was served . Thoroughly recommend this hotel it’s about 15 min walk in to the heart of Corfu town

Liked everything about this place

From the moment we walked in we were treated special . All staff was amazing and so friendly . The breakfast in the beautiful garden room exceeded my expectations with a menu having amazing eggs Benedict and I had the lox and egggs the second day . The room was beautiful with an amazing large bathroom and high ceilings throughout. The hotel set us up with a private driver that had a collection of classic cars and took us around the island in an original VW beetle . The location was amazing, walking distance to the old fortress , prince Phillippe palace and okd town. We had visited a lot of the Greek islands but this was the most lush, safe island . We loved every moment and intend to return soon.

It was perfect !

Great location, 10-15 stroll to old town to the left, and same to the right down to the old windmill and Mon Repos Palace / Park where Prince Philip was born. Plentiful bars and restaurants en route both ways. The location also allowed for free on street parking for our hire car too, so another bonus. The hotel itself was fantastically restored from derelict back in 2020 we understand, and has been really nicely done out both inside and out. Rooms are modern and air conditioned, with great walk in showers and quality soaps and shampoos etc provided. There is a small bar to serve drinks in the front of the hotel, with a nice seating area out fronto too. The real gem is the coverered garden courtyard out the back though, where fantastic breakfasts are prepared and servied in front of you. All staff were amazing, and very helpful.

Nothing. It was all great.

My wife and I were in Corfu almost 3 weeks and spent the first 4 nights in an apartment in the middle of the old town. Then we traveled around the island for a couple of weeks and on our return, we needed one night near the airport after turning the rental car in. So, we were only in this beautiful boutique hotel one night. It is a top-end and extremely nice hotel and property of exceptional quality and service - definitely 5-Star level quality of rooms, service and the building, but small and very quiet. Also, a lovely garden seating area and great breakfast. The location is interesting and really quite good. It is basically on the water near the airport and when you walk out to the promenade along the water, you are staring across to the old fortress - about a 500 meter walk into the heart of old Corfu, but still in the old town and in a beautiful area with a park and great restaurants that the locals flock to because it is slightly away from the absolute pedestrian center of the old town. The on-site managers are extremely professional and the hotel bar in the beautiful entry living area is impressive. This must have been an old stone 19th Century wealthy family mansion. Grat boutique hotel. Highly recommended. Last thing - there is a taxi drop-off at the door, so you don't have to drag your bags through the cobbled streets like anywhere else in the old town. If you have a rental car, there is a much higher chance of parking it near there, and still a very beautiful short walk along the water to the heart of the pedestrian-only zone.

There was nothing not to like

We spent about two weeks on Corfu island and stayed in various accommodations reaching from "insider tip" to five star hotel but the Acanthus blue was our all time favourite! The entire place looks freshly renovated and is extremely well maintained. The hotel staff is very friendly and accommodating without being intrusive. The breakfast was delicious and in the evening the bartender even prepared individual cocktails for us. The location of the hotel is just perfect if you want to explore corfu city on foot.

Our stay at the Acanthus Blue was exceptional in all respects. All the staff were welcoming and friendly, genuinely interested in their guests and nothing was too much bother which was such a big plus for our overall experience. The hotel’s location was perfect, in a quiet neighbourhood only 15 minutes walk from Corfu Old Town. The decor of the hotel, including the garden, was an absolute delight, understated yet exquisite-simply beautiful. The breakfasts at Acanthus Blue were unquestionably the best we have had anywhere. Lovely Alexandra’s cheese pie and unique banana bread(probably the most delicious thing I have ever tasted, served freshly baked in addition to a very good menu) alone would be reason to revisit this beautiful hotel!

We loved everything!

This is the most incredible hotel in Corfu town. Everything from property design, to rooms, to staff, to breakfast was amazing! We stayed here after we got married with couple of friends whilst in Corfu - the staff really made it a special experience and we will certainly be back! The breakfast was generous and an experience in itself. The rooms were spacious, new, tasteful and comfortable. The hotel is 15 mins walk from Corfu old town, and the walk is down the marina for all the boat and start gazing in the evening, whilst in the day time it provides seclusion from a very busy old town. We will definitely be back, my only regret is that we didn’t book out the whole hotel for a week because it honestly made our time in Corfu so special!
