Have just got back from this Hotel and found it to be absolutely great! It is very basic, but the air condtioning and the owner,Athina, more than made up for this. Our rooms were cleaned every day and we had clean sheets twice a week (better than we get at home!) The breakfast is continental... boiled egg, bread butter & jam, orange juice, tea or coffee. Athina, the hotel owner is a great character and really did make my holiday. What a sense of humour and she is the Mayor of Kefalonia! All in all it was a nice hotel, central location and very very friendly.

Food here was excellent!! Varied menu, HUGE portions and great prices. We ate here 8 nights out of 14 (are we sad, or what) Staff were friendly and the veiws were superb and everyone has a complimentary brandy at the end of their meal.

We married in KOS and i think procedure is roughly the same. Feel free to mail me and I will give you any info that may help.

just read your note.. we stayed at Irelena last year and have booked to go back again in July. Its basic, but I have to say we never found it dirty at all. Like you, we said we only sleep in the room, so found this a great base for our holiday. The owner is fabulous and a really good host and the bar within the hotel is one of the cheapest in Lassi. If you want any more details you can email me at ladyboss@btconnect.com.
I read comments on here before going and was really worried before arriving, but had the best holiday ever! We have stayed at top flight hotles in Greece and rock bottom self catering, and this one is bang smack in the middle. Have a great time!
