Have a look on here, we used these for part of our upcoming trip to Greece and they have some interesting looking hotels.

Hi

Haven't stayed in any of these two but they look OK:

Delphi: http://www.delphi.com.gr/hotel_parnassos/

Olympia: http://www.hotelpelops.gr/

Cheers

I want to second the recommendation for the Hotel Pelops in Olympia. I stayed there very recently (New Year's 06) and the place was newly renovated and very comfortable. In addition, the hotel owners went WAY out of their way for us, cooking us a traditional Greek New Year's dinner because everything was closed on New Year's Eve (complete with home-made vasilopita!) and the son of the owner came all the way to Athens to return a wallet that one of my students accidently left in his room!! (Of course it was untouched.) Anyway, I love to recommend this hotel because it seems like the least I can do to thank them. It's in a great location; the reason we originally booked with them is that they had the lowest prices in Olympia, but I'm not sure what their rates are now.

We will be in Olympia in 2 weeks and have reservations at the Best Western Europa. It sounds like it serves a lot of tourist groups but we don't plan on being there for more than our sleeping hours anyway. It has good reviews on Tripadvisor and the price was reasonable, plus parking is available.

I stayed at the Hotel Acropole in Delphi which was a nice place. Had a room with a balcony and view out over the valley. I was traveling with a group seminar so I don't know how much the room is, but I imagine it was reasonable.

If we get into Athen on a flight from Mykonos at 8:45 p.m., do you think it would be feasible to drive to Corinth and stay the night, the next morning go to Olympia, then drive to Delphi that night and stay there the next night? Thanks for all the input we've been receiving!!!

Stayed at the Amalia in Delphia some years ago and loved it. Spacious and airy rooms. I just checked tripadvisor, and the recent comments are still pretty good (currently ranked #4 out of 17 hotels).

I don't know what price range you are looking for, but our family of five stayed at the Hotel Parnassos in Delphi last June. We had two double rooms for 93 euros. The hotel was spotless, very quiet, and the staff was friendly. It is in the heart of town and a short walk to the ruins. I would stay there again in a minute!
