The best thing about Guesthouse Arsenious it is its location; it is upper in the hills, away from the heat and from all the business of the touristic area. You are literally only a few minutes away from the first Meterora Monastery, but being at the Guesthouse Arsenious, on my balcony, from where I could see some of the Meteora Rocks and the wineries around us, it felt so peacefully, plus the evening breeze of the evening made the evening more great. The guesthouse has a very large terrace patio outside, plus each unit has its own balcony, and if you have children, you have lots of space for them to us outside. The breakfast was plenty to keep us full until late evening. Having the breakfast right there and leaving a few minutes before 9, we were able to see the monasteries before all the tour busses arrived. I do recommend the place to all those that are seeking peace and very relaxing place for their vacation.

Great location near Meteora monasteries. Great value and the owner is very friendly “Hello, boss!” and helpful. His mother is also very kind and they send you off with sweets (hard candies and loukoumi) before you head out the door for the day. The room was clean and comfortable and our view from our balcony over the valley was incredible and peaceful.

There was some kind of weed whacker sounds through many of the waking hours. They have an entire olive grove to take care of, or perhaps it was a neighbor. Either way, it was still worth it!

The location was perfect for seeing Meteora. We loved how easily we could go around all of the monasteries and as well, enjoy a delicious meal at Kalambaka. The owner was friendly and gave us each a bottle of water every day out of his cooler. He also gave us some homemade jam when we left, which was very sweet. He loves to tell the story of his family, owning the olive trees and all of his family history.

The bed was a bit hard but for the value, it was great. Extra blankets in the cupboard helped.:)

The location was excellent: picturesque views from the room, easily accessible by car, close enough to the nearest town and the monasteries of Meteora. We loved the peace and quiet of this hillside Guesthouse, ideal for people who are looking for a place to relax and unwind. Our hosts were welcoming and friendly, gave us useful information about the area, what to see, where to eat, etc. This was our second time in Guesthouse Arsenis and we hope to return soon!

The guesthouse is really well located. It's around 50' walking from the center of Kalambaka but it's quite near the start of Meteora circuit with a privileged view. Kostas was an excellent host, willing to share some inside tips and recommend us with the best itinerary to visit all the open monasteries. The food prepared by his mother was really good, I'll recommend it. It was also very welcomed after visiting the monasteries by foot. We didn't have any issue with our stay but it should be noted that because of the area the WiFi signal wasn't the best. It wasn't a problem for us as our phones were able to connect, but there was a warning signal in reception regarding the WiFi signal.

Nothing.

I would like to echo what almost all reviewers have said. Kostas is a very friendly host and provides a really good service. This family run guesthouse is incredibly well-maintained and exudes a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The accommodation is really good value for money if you want a simple clean place to stay that has incredible views of the valley with olive trees which are owned by the family Arsenis. You need a car to reach the property, but the views from the balcony and the tranquility of the olive farm is worth it. You cannot find a quieter area in Meteora to stay, there are no neighbours and the property is tucked away from the busy streets. The location of the propery is always going to be the highlight of the stay which has breathtaking views of the valley. Waking up to such beauty every morning was indeed a treat. The peaceful ambiance of Guesthouse Arsenis was exactly what we needed for a relaxing getaway. The tranquility of the surroundings allowed us to unwind and recharge, making our stay all the more enjoyable. Guesthouse Arsenis is a place to unplug. This is not an accommodation if you wish to work remotely while you are still on holiday. It is a great place to take a break from the normal day to day activities of life and work and the internet and enjoy the beauty of Meteora. Overall, I highly recommend Guesthouse Arsenis to anyone looking for a comfortable and charming accommodation in the Meteora area. The combination of great views, a well-maintained property run by a small family and not an international conglomerate, and a peaceful surroundings made for a truly memorable stay. I would definitely return in the future.

The quality-price ratio at Guesthouse Arsenis was very good.

This property is absolutely beautiful. Just a 4 minute drive away from the main road and downtown Kalabaka, but with stunning views of the valley and the rock formations. I wish we had stayed longer as you could easily spend days sitting on the balcony or outside the restaurant soaking up the views of the olive groves. The owner, Panash, and staff were also wonderful. So welcoming and helpful . They gave us the perfect recommendations for restaurants and sightseeing. Will be coming back to stay here again for sure.

Beautiful views of Meteora cliffs and countryside. The location is extremely convenient for visiting the Meteora monasteries. My wife particularly liked that the host gave us ground floor room when he saw that she has a fairly severe limp. Dinner on our arrival night was basic but tasty at a fair price. The lobby had a comfortable lounge area. Breakfast was very good and filling.

Noise from the television (that no one seemed to be watching) in the lounge area during and after dinner interfered with conversation and was annoying.

We totally enjoyed our stay at Guesthouse Arsenis. The owners were very friendly and helpful, giving lots of suggestions about things to do in Meteora and other parts of Greece. As a result, we visited several places that were not on our radar. We liked that Guesthouse Arsenis was not in the middle of the Kalabaka tourist area, so it was quieter and parking was not a problem.
