We only stayed one evening on a family road trip throughout the area because we wanted to be sure we weren’t rushed in Olympia. Nikolas was EXTREMELY helpful, great with our kids, and gave us great advice on how to spend our time there. The hotel was an easy walk to everything and we checked every box we wanted to on our visit!

Large room, clean. Property somewhat dated. Wifi a little slow, easy to park.
A great place to stay. A short walk from Ancient Olympia. Great folks very friendly. We stayed there 5 years ago and we just stayed there now. We will definitely stay there again!

Older building that has been taken care of. Staff very friendly and helpful. Breakfast (set menu) very good.
We stayed at the Hercules for two nights and really enjoyed our stay. The owner was so friendly and very helpful with local advice. The room was simple, but very clean. We would definitely come back here again.
We arrived at the hotel for the night directly from Kalamata Airport, the owners have been waiting for us and have welcomed us late in the evening around 23. Very Clean and comfortable, very close to the sites.

Good value for money
A nice modest place run by a friendly family. I visited in the offseason so things were quiet. The hotel was as as described and the staff was very kind and accommodating. It’s no Hilton of course, but the bed and room were comfortable. Traffic is a bit noisy which is odd for a tiny town, but I had a nice time.
It was a good experience to stay at Hercules. The staff was very nice and personal. The only complain was that WiFi was weak and rather unreliable. I had to come out to the hallway to make internet connection.
The hotel is a bit dated, but has fully adequate room amenities, and the room was actually quite large. The owner (we assumed it was the owner) was very friendly. The location is very good, since the village is quite small, one can get to all the sites in less than 15 min walking, and it's a pleasant walk down the main street, lots of eateries, souvenir shops etc. on the way

Hercules is centrally located and the staff was very friendly. Our room was clean but there are no amenities like hair dryer or iron. The windows are louvres, which are pretty but don’t seal shut so street noise was on the loud side.

Very basic hotel. Our room was clean. However, neither the bathroom door, nor the patio door closed properly. Plus the church bells right outside our room were really loud. Wifi very weak.

Walking distance to shops and restaurants. Comfortable for a one night stay. No elevator so it was good we were only on the second floor. Parking was not plentiful in the area but that seems to be the situation in Greece as a whole. Not bring a smoker it was not appreciated that the lobby smelled of cigarette smoke. The owner/ manager? was very nice and check in was easy.
Nice unfussy place to stay! Just in front of the church, we liked seeing a traditional Greek wedding. The entrance hall decoration is authentic and charming.
