刺青藍酒店(Acanthus Blue)

This hotel was great! My wife and I stayed here for four nights in Corfu. The hotel is charming, nicely decorated and clean -- and the staff is great. The breakfasts are fantastic and the breakfast space outside is so nice: yogurt with your choice of fruit, nuts, honey, or homemade granola (superb); eggs any way you want them; great cappuccino and Greek coffee, etc.. The woman who prepares breakfast is so friendly (I think her name is Andrea). The servers are great. The concierge in the afternoons is so friendly (and makes a great gin & tonic). Just a great stay!

Just completed 2 night stay. Beautiful boutique hotel close to the old town. Each room has its own unique feel. Staff were so helpful and friendly. Breakfast in the small garden was a delight. Highly recommend, will stay again. Even met the hotel dog.

Our second visit to this blissfully relaxing hotel. Nothing is too much trouble for any of the staff here. Our visits have both been in October so we have not been able to experience the summer evening dining as yet, but there are several options nearby or Corfu town is a 15-20 min walk or a 5 minute taxi ride. The breakfasts are fantastic - it’s all homemade and the omelettes a definite hit! The bar may be small but it is well stocked and has delicious local wines. Perfect for a pre-dinner or post dinner drink! The rooms are light and airy, well equipped and very comfortable. Now what of Ira? Ira is the boss, she is the welcoming party as well as chief of security. Nothing gets past Ira (see photo). The friendliness of the staff is only surpassed by Ira’s wagging tail as she greets you on your return home! Give that dog a pay rise!

This is a delightful small hotel on the outskirts of Corfu town. There are only 8 rooms, so don’t expect swimming pool, gym etc. But the service standards were 5 star and every aspect of the hotel design was immaculate. It was like being in an art gallery. I even wondered if the light fixtures were by Dale Chihuly. Our room had *****ped wooden floors, a Nespresso, a balcony overlooking the sea and a designer bathroom. Breakfast was taken in a nice patio garden and included fresh fruits, cakes, breads and a range of egg based hot courses. It’s about a 15 minute walk to Liston or Mon Repos, although the city bus stops right in front if you don’t fancy walking. The airport is 5 mins or 20 euros away. There is a small well stocked bar and lots of eating choices nearby. Staff could not have been friendlier or more helpful. Only minor improvements I could suggest are to rotate breakfast items more frequently as it was the same more or less everyday and to get more channels on the huge Tv.

Wonderful stay in this charming hotel. The hosts were extremely welcoming, the room was large by European standards and had a beautiful aesthetic with exposed stone and hand-blown glass light fixtures. Breakfast was delicious - especially the homemade jams and breads! The hotel is a short walk from the airport (10-15 min depending on your pace) or a quick taxi ride. (Note - Google Maps does not have the correct address for the hotel so if walking, look for Cafe Vino to find the location.) Old Corfu Town is also a short 10-15 walk - we enjoyed the walks to and from the town along the coastal sea wall. Overall a fantastic hotel experience!

We originally saw Acanthus Blue on one of our many walks around Corfu Town a year or so ago and it looked lovely. This year we decided to pop in and were met by one of the staff who showed us around and made us feel really welcome. Although we were not staying there we decided to eat there one night. The outside courtyard dining area was stunning and the food was equally stunning with outstanding, professional and friendly service. We followed our meal with a drink in the bar we recommend the Lazaris Greek Gin! We plan to go back and this time stay in the hotel for a few days.

What a fantastic stay. The hotel staff was incredible from the front desk to the chef that cooks meals everyday right in front of you in a lovely courtyard. The rooms were very comfortable and had everything you need. The location is about 10-15 walk to the center of Corfu and about a 5 minute drive to the airport. Would definitely recommend a stay if your looking for a boutique hotel.

Our stay at Acanthus Blue was top notch. The warm welcome and hospitality we received throughout our stay was magnificent. Each staff member we encountered could not have been more friendly or helpful. We were lucky enough to encounter Dimitris every day of our 4-day stay. He checked us in and out, served us breakfast, always had a cold water bottle on hand, expedited our rental car and recommended wonderful places to visit. Most importantly, he befriended us and treated us to his wonderful sense of humor. Some people are made for the service industry – that is an understatement when it comes to the service we received from Dimitris and the entire staff at Acanthus Blue. And the breakfasts…perfection. Now that we are back in the States we are trying to recreate that delicious yogurt and fruit parfait and those fluffy, flavorful eggs. From beginning to end, our stay was perfect. The room was lovely and the air conditioning saved us during the heatwave. We truly hope to return. Our holiday in lovely Corfu and at the Acanthus is a definite favorite.
