Guests describe Espero Royal Stay as a centrally located boutique base in Nafplio with stylish, comfortable rooms and consistently friendly staff, with many praising cooked-to-order breakfasts and easy walking access to the waterfront, shops, sights, and restaurants.
Access by car and parking often involve a short walk, and there is no elevator, so some rooms require climbing stairs. Rooms are modern and spacious, with some featuring balconies or private jacuzzis; views vary and occasional street or harbor noise is reported despite mixed soundproofing. Cleanliness and service are strong overall, though a few guests noted housekeeping lapses and uneven communication. Expect a charming, central stay with boutique comforts and some practical trade-offs.

If you are going to Nafplio, the Espero is a great place to stay! Only a block from the water, parking available within two blocks, and all major attractions are walkable from the hotel. The breakfast was a major plus here -- they have their own restaurant which offers excellent food as part of your stay! We stayed in the top floor, which came with a rooftop patio where we could hang out, and even offered a jacuzzi/hot tub for us to chill in after a long day of touring the town! (Note, it's only large enough for one adult comfortably, but you can fit two if you're willing to intertwine limbs) I definitely recommend the Espero and would certainly stay there again if we return to Nafplio.

They did not have room for my first night and sent me to a different hotel. No help to get luggage up to the room-no elevator access. Nobody to help move back to Espero. Espero has 31 steps up to room! No elevator. Room was supposed to have sea view. Had to get to balcony and crane your neck for the sea view!!

We had a great stay in The Swing room. The room was well appointed and very clean. Importantly, the AC worked!! Staff were polite and attentive and room service was excellent... loved the thick towels. Would definitely stay here again, close to Old Town and a short walk to multiple restaurants. Parking is a problem if you drive during the peak periods, no way to get around this.

It was pretty luxurious, we stayed in two different rooms. Good location, good breakfast (ours was included). It's a small luxury boutique hotel with maybe 8-9 rooms? Located right near the port. Parking is at the port area which is a couple minute walk (across the street large lot) Hotel probably books quickly, for good reason. It didn't have rooftop views or a pool, but it was a 5/5 comparatively to others of the same style we've room and boarded. Would recommend...even in February, it's a gem.

The hotel is located within the old town within walking distance to all restaurants, cafes and shops near to the sea front; parking at the port was adequate. Our King suite was spacious with a separate bedroom and a separate area with jacuzzi overlooking the castle. Service was number one! Both hosts that we interacted with during our stay were very warm and welcoming; Marianna carried our luggage to and from our room and gave us excellent visit itinerary as well as dining suggestions. A memorable stay in Nafplio!

Room was very nice. Very quiet nice bed very nice shower, but it’s on patio with a Jacuzzi was very helpful. They gave us two towels to take to the beach. No questions asked watched our luggage for us after check out. The only concern I have here is parking. We had a rental car which we had to park maybe five minutes away, but that is just part of this little town parking is very safe and it really wasn’t that far of a walk and it’s free. I would definitely stay here again.

We felt that the staff under communicated the difficulty it is to get to this property. There is no where to park close to the property to even drop your stuff off. We had to park about 1/4 of a mile from the location. We had blood stained sheets the 1st night we were there and when we realized the sheets were stained that there was no one there. In the am we told the reception person and the basically scoffed at us and told us that the cleaning lady wouldn’t be there until the afternoon.

The room was clean, modern and uniquely decorated. The service was fantastic from Jim the concierge to the waitresses, maids, and manager. Breakfast was unbelievable from yogurt w it’s all the toppings to omelets made to order, cheese, bacon and fresh on. Dinner in the restaurant was also excellent. But the real treat was the private hot tub on our private deck. We had the Romeo and Juliet room. Nafplio is a must see sweet, relaxing town. Definitely stay here when visiting!

We enjoyed our stay at Espero. We watched a wedding in the square out front, as well as the horsedrawn carriage and tour train. The room was very nice. It was NOT, however, soundproof. It was a trade-off for being on the front on the square. We enjoyed our little balcony. I did use earplugs and had on my white noise, but it was still Saturday night, and not quiet. The breakfast was at the restaurant next door and was wonderful!

First time in Napflion for a 3-day jaunt with my daughter. we received a complimentary upgrade to a Junior suite, which was nicely sized and comfortable. Our room included a mini fridge, Nespresso coffee machine, and bottles of water. We had a large veranda with nice privacy walls. My daughter used it for a few business video calls that she had to sneak in. The wifi was more than adequate. The staff were so warm and welcoming. Breakfast in the attached restaurant was delicious, fresh, and plentiful. The location was amazing, right in the heart of the old center with views of the port and at the base of the the hike to Palamidi castle.

This hotel is perfectly located for exploring Nafplio on foot, and staying here as a solo traveller I have felt extremely safe. I originally booked two nights but have ended up staying on for another two nights. The staff are lovely, speak English, and have also helped me with directions and recommendations for sightseeing and local restaurants. My room is lovely. I have dined in the hotel restaurant for breakfast and dinner, and both were enjoyable. The only downside is that the rooms with the “city view” currently overlook a building undergoing construction. This doesn’t bother me much as I am usually out but if you want a pleasant view, be sure to book a different room. The noise hasn’t been too bad, however. I would 100% return again.

I stopped here for one night and wish I had the time to stay longer. Perfect room with all amenities, design, comfort, etc. I was in a bit of a pinch to get to my next destination and lacked transportation. The hotel (actually awesome front desk employee whose name I failed to ask/remember) connected me with a reliable driver who drove a nice Mercedes and was pretty cool to ride with for two hours. However, I won’t forget her professional and helpful disposition. The location is optimal as well at the waterfront and downtown. I can’t recommend this place enough.

The breakfast was a major plus here -- they have their own restaurant which offers excellent food as part of your stay!

(Note, it's only large enough for one adult comfortably, but you can fit two if you're willing to intertwine limbs) I definitely recommend the Espero and would certainly stay there again if we return to Nafplio.
If you are going to Nafplio, the Espero is a great place to stay! Only a block from the water, parking available within two blocks, and all major attractions are walkable from the hotel.

Perfect location, near to harbour and old town. Parking is very neat, about 100-200m, free. Lots of cafes and restaurants nearby, great service, very stylish decor, new, and great lighting in the room. Nice toiletries too. Balcony is big and room is well sound proofed.

We felt that the staff under communicated the difficulty it is to get to this property. There is no where to park close to the property to even drop your stuff off. We had to park about 1/4 of a mile from the location. We had blood stained sheets the 1st night we were there and when we realized the sheets were stained that there was no one there. In the am we told the reception person and the basically scoffed at us and told us that the cleaning lady wouldn’t be there until the afternoon.

This hotel is perfectly located for exploring Nafplio on foot, and staying here as a solo traveller I have felt extremely safe. I originally booked two nights but have ended up staying on for another two nights. The staff are lovely, speak English, and have also helped me with directions and recommendations for sightseeing and local restaurants. My room is lovely. I have dined in the hotel restaurant for breakfast and dinner, and both were enjoyable. The only downside is that the rooms with the “city view” currently overlook a building undergoing construction. This doesn’t bother me much as I am usually out but if you want a pleasant view, be sure to book a different room. The noise hasn’t been too bad, however. I would 100% return again.

Great location in the heart of the old town of Nafplio with many high quality restaurants on narrow alleyways and along the harbor. Convenient to the Palamidi Fortress and 30 minutes from Mykines and Epidaurus sites. Broad selection of options for breakfast.

Good value for the money. Best included breakfast we've ever had at a hotel. Staff were welcoming and friendly. Only complaint was there wasn't enough hot water to fill the hot tub.

We enjoyed our stay at Espero. We watched a wedding in the square out front, as well as the horsedrawn carriage and tour train. The room was very nice. It was NOT, however, soundproof. It was a trade-off for being on the front on the square. We enjoyed our little balcony. I did use earplugs and had on my white noise, but it was still Saturday night, and not quiet. The breakfast was at the restaurant next door and was wonderful!

Very well located in the centre of Nafplio. We stayed one night en route from Athens south to the Peloponnese, having booked the room the day before. There was lots of space in our room for our 2 adults and 2 children, a hot tub which we didn't need in the heat and with the sea just nearby! Breakfast in the next door cafe/restaurant is preordered the day before, and was huge and tasty.

Beautiful boutique style hotel located just a few metres from the port. Everything was perfect! The room was gorgeous and loved the name: Romeo & Juliette. The breakfast choices are plentiful and the hotel restaurant was a great choice for lunch or dinner. We highly recommend this hotel for your stay in this fabulous town!!

Loved every moment or day. The entire staff was so accommodating. I would like to thank Jim in particular, although everybody was great. The hotel is fabulous. The only issue somebody might have is that the breakfast is not a traditional “Greek buffet” breakfast. There was nothing wrong with it as much as just it’s not what you might have. Come to expect from other hotels in Greece. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

The room was nicely decorated and very comfortable, although it can get pretty noisy at night because of the bars and restaurants outside. The staff were great, friendly and attentive. The location is perfect to discover the harbour and all the little shopping streets. We did notice a bit of a smell inside the room and all the light switch’s were sticky. We also found hair ties left behind by the previous occupants and the shower drain was almost completely clogged. A good deep scrubbing of the room would be worth it.

Breakfast at the restaurant nextdoor was included and was delicious. We had a room on the 2nd floor and the staffed papced our bags in the room for us after holding them while we explored the town before check-in. Hotel was very clean. Our specific room had a balcony with a lot of space. Parking was located near by. Staff was very friendly and helpful.
