Imaret hotel is a gem. The hotel is actually a historical building with lots of history (take the free tour to learn all about it) The service and staff were absolutely excellent. The property is beautiful and well maintained. The dining was truly 5 star (and I did not realize that dinner was included in the booking as well as breakfast) Bookings are pricey even by 5 star standards but I don’t regret spending a little extra on this hotel My only complaint would be the air condition was not strong enough to cool the room adequately (Greece was experiencing an extreme heat wave during our stay, and the Dome room we were staying in let in more heat than a traditional hotel). Air condition worked but was not strong enough to cool the upper level of the room (where the bed was located)

Exquisite location but it is the exceptional quality of the staff, and maintenance which makes this place truly special. It is wonderful to see a team like this. Their manner, care and excellent service made it impossible not to stay an extra night. I have to mention Athanasia in particular: When you watch any great performer or artist, you realise they were born to do this and excel. The Imaret is Athanasia’s arena; driven by passion and effortless empathy, it is a joy to watch her look after guests; a star. The staff here go the extra mile by default and the hotel do not rely on the beauty of the building. There is so much of the world to see but this is one place I will have to return to. My thanks to all the staff for an amazing stay. Gavin

Fantastic hotel with an interesting history

We had a great stay. The hotel is luxurious and understated and very interesting architecturally given its history - make sure you take the free guided tour. The staff are really great - helpful and welcoming. It’s a bit of an oasis of calm and somewhere where you can relax and unwind.

Kavala's Imaret is stunning

Four of us spent a couple of evenings, celebrating Orthodox Easter, at Kavala's Imaret. Service was exceptional. Food was exquisite. The actual hotel has a couple of hundred years worth of history and is just stunning. Definitely a must stay visit and stay place.

If you are talking about a hotel with a story that is Imaret. Enjoying its prime as a luxury hotel after being a religious school, an abandoned school and a welfare diner. Representative of middle east baroque with a view to wake up for.

In Imaret fand ich ein einzigartiges Ambiente vor, von der Außenfassade über die Lobby bis zu den Räumen ist alles einzigartig. Die historische Architektur wurde bestens beibehalten und man merkt manchmal kaum, dass es ein Hotel ist. Der Aufenthalt in einem Historischen Objekt ist mir nicht neu, jedoch fühlt und spürt man bei Imaret jederzeit die prächtige Geschichte der Stadt und des Gebäudes. Sollte ich jemals wieder nach Kavala kommen ist dieses Hotel meine erste Adresse, wenn nicht sogar der Grund meines Besuches. Sehr empfehlenswert für Menschen die viel Wert auf Authentizität geben. Kontra: Baubedingt gibt es verständlicherweise keine Parkplätze aber auch keinen Valley Service, was bei der Innenstadt-Lage teilweise sehr problematisch sein kann. Im Zimmer gab es keinen Fernseher und keinen Bügeleisen-Set.
