Conveniently situated 50 miles from Athens, Corinth is the gateway to the Peloponnese, an area rich in natural beauty and historical sites. Ancient Corinth is an important archaeological site, and above the ancient town towers Acrocorinth, a fortress used throughout the middle ages by Byzantine, Venetian and Turkish occupiers.

The modern city of Corinth has all the facilities to make your stay enjoyable, including numerous outdoor cafes, bars and restaurants, several beaches, and services such as travel agencies, banks and shops. There are excellent transport connections, with buses to Athens every hour, and frequent trains and buses connecting Corinth to the surrounding villages.

Corinth is an excellent base for touring, set among many unspoilt beach resorts. Loutraki is a spa town renowned for its clear blue sea. Vrahati, where we provide accommodation, is one of the many smaller coastal villages that combine relaxing days on the beach with vibrant nightlife. The stunning sites of Mycenae, Argos, Nafplio and Nemea are all close by, as is the theatre of Epidavros, where ancient tragedies are performed during the summer festival.
