Mon Repos Palace is an adults-only hotel about a mile from Corfu Old Town and around seven-tenths of a mile from the airport, which makes it one of the most practical choices for short stays and early flights. It is a four-class property with a very large number of guest reviews, around nine hundred, and a solid score of 8.6 out of 10. A guest review mentions a buffet with breakfast and dinner, and bus stops lie close by. Being adults-only gives it a quieter atmosphere than family resorts, which suits couples and friends, and the location outside the old town lanes means more space and easier access by car. It is a good compromise between the old town hotels, which are close to the sights but cramped, and the beach resorts, which are far away.
Location and getting around
About a mile from the old town, the hotel is a walk of some distance or a short taxi or bus ride, and it is also close to the airport, which helps at the start and end of a stay. The name echoes the Mon Repos estate, but check the location relative to the estate and to Kanoni before you plan walks, since distances in Corfu Town can be longer than they look on a map. Bus stops nearby help if you prefer public transport.
What to expect
A straightforward adults-only hotel with meal options and a quiet setting. The feature of a buffet breakfast and dinner mentioned by guests can be useful in winter, when you may not want to search for a restaurant after dark. Details of the pool, rooms and other facilities are on the booking details for your dates, and it is wise to check whether seasonal facilities are open if you travel outside summer. Because it is adults only, children cannot stay, which is a point to confirm if you travel with family.
Who it suits
Couples, friends and solo travellers who want a quiet stay with easy access to the airport and the old town, and visitors with an early or late flight. It is less suited to families and to guests who want to be in the lanes at night. If you want to walk to the Liston, a hotel in the old town will serve you better, while this one gives you space and calm at a mid-range price.
Compare it with the Arion Hotel if you want a similar distance from town at a lower price. Check the transport arrangements for the airport on arrival day, since a short taxi ride is easy to arrange, and ask the hotel about walking routes to the Mon Repos estate and the Kanoni road if you plan to explore on foot.
