The view alone is worth staying at this hotel. The staff will make you feel so comfortable and will always aim to please. The rooms are spacious and the balconies are even better. The only place to stay in Kalamata

Amazing hotel, room was big and very clean. Hotel itself is beautiful. We didnt get to us the pool but looked great. Breakfast was very good with lots of choices. Hotel staff were very helpful. It is about 45 walk to the city center but it is beautiful walk by the water. Would definitely stay here again.

The breakfast buffet was a great surprise! It had alot of selection and the food was good quality. Great seating area to eat also. The pool area has a nice view of the mountain and sea. Suggestions: The pool temperature was colder than the sea and needed to be warmer. The room bathrooms could use some better maintenance. Overall, a great stay. Thank you

The location of the hotel was very convenient - near the seaside and the sea was very near and good for the evening. Breakfast was very good with a good range of local food offered. The facilities on the beach were not great. The sun umbrella should have been upgraded and the lido cleanliness should be improved given that it was not exclusively reserved to the hotel. The hotel offered a bike service but the bikes were broken and one broke down whilst using it. The hotel offered kindly a dinner and changed the bikes - this was appreciated. The personnel should be more experienced and trained more.

Fantastic second stay. Staff, cleanliness of rooms, beautiful common area spaces and a good breakfast make it our choice when visiting Kalamata. This our second year returning and we look forward to next year.

My husband and I wrapped up our Greek vacation with a 4 night stay in Kalamata. The Horizon Blu Hotel was the perfect place to unwind from a very fast paced vacation around several of the Greek Islands. Our spacious oceanfront room was immaculate with a well stocked mini bar. We really loved our private plunge pool. The sea and mountain views were simply beautiful. The breakfast that was included with our stay was fresh and delicious; there were several options for any appetite. They even had a do-it-yourself Greek coffee station. We enjoyed the main pool area and beach alike. The hotel provides chairs and umbrellas for those staying at the property. There is also food/bar service at the beach. The hotel staff were extremely friendly and efficient. We will definitely come back to the Horizon Blu when we return for a visit to this beautiful seaside town.

The rooms and staff were lovely, breakfast offered a lot of choice, but the dining room was not what would be expected in a 5 star hotel. Outside pool was closed for winter and indoor pool was chilly and in a rather dull lower ground floor area.

My only option for Kalamata
This was a great small hotel. Very accommodating and had Netflix! The pool area and pool restaurant was very nice. We opted for the sea view and it was great. Breakfast didn’t have a big selection but was included. If I am in the area again I will stay here.

Not like any 5* I've stayed in
The spa, gym and restaurant are all closed. With all the closures they're effectively a 2* hotel, but ati charging 5* prices. Terrible level of service since Covid 19, when other comparable hotels are operating as normal. The outdoor pool was only open from 10am until 6pm, despite it being 30 degrees and the pool area being busy at 6pm. When I queried it with the receptionist, she couldn't care less. No information provided on services or the local area. Very poor customer service for a supposed 5* hotel. On the booking it stated we would have a bath and a shower, but our room only contained a shower. Breakfast was mediocre and the room was so dark and dingy we struggled to get ready in the evening. All in all a disappointing experience and the hotel just didn't care.

Most incompetent service
The service was absolutely incompetent. The pool bar restaurant with only 4 tables occupied took 20 min to bring 2 coca colas. When we came down to have dinner in the hotel restaurant the man at the reception/check in said there is no restaurant in the hotel. When I pulled up the website for the hotel he said this is not our hotel. I asked him to take a look at the pictures and then he said ah yes it is the hotel but the restaurant is closed. I'm sorry but please train your staff..
