| This lovely hotel is great value for money and we have stayed here five times. Excellent location with bars, tavernas and beaches close by. Attractive , spotlessly clean rooms with really comfy beds and proper
shower cubicle (not always the usual in Greece).
The bar prices are very reasonable and there are pleasant areas, indoors and out to enjoy your drink.
Large, quiet garden area at the back is the ideal place for reading or sunbathing in peace.
This little gem of a hotel just keeps on getting better and better. |

| We have just returned from a fantastic holiday in Kefalonia and one of the highlights was our hotel Irilena. The owner Athina, her daughter Irilena and Athina's sister Anna were amazing people. They were like our second family away from home. They were so kind, generous and helpful. The hotel was very clean and modernly decorated. The location was perfect. Its a 5 minute walk from the best sandy beaches and a hugh selection of restaurants and bars. The hotel Irilena also has a bar where most of the guests would gather in the evenings for a drink. We made so many friends at the hotel and we will definitely return very soon. I would recommend this hotel to family and friends as it is so clean, has amazing owners and was so relaxing and in the best location. Its a 5 minute taxi ride into the main town of Argostoli and only 15 minutes from the airport. Ignore the 2 star rating on this hotel as it is definitely worth more than that. Overall rating: Excellent |

Have just arrived back from a great week in Lassi, staying at the Hotel Irilena. Owned by Athena and her daughter Irilena, this is a lovely hotel - spotlessly clean and very welcoming. It has everything you need except a pool, but the fantastic beach is not very far (although down a hill once down no need to come back up - restaurants and bars by the beach) and there is a pool that can be used just across the road. The road is very busy, so a room at the back is preferable. These look out onto the garden and have a very pleasant view from the balcony - very nice to have a drink on in the evening. The room has a fridge but no kettle and the air conditioning is worth every penny extra.
The breakfast is adequate - self service - bread, cheese, marmalade, eggs, juice, tea, coffee. The same every day - could do with a little variety.
The resort is very clean and has lots of very good restaurants. Not noisy (no clubs) - no gangs of youths.
Perfect for a peaceful holiday. Everything goes by GMT (Greek Maybe Time). |

just returned from 2 weeks at the irilena hotel. we booked this at the very last minute and took the only available hotel we could find. we are so glad we ended up there. as others have mentioned, the hotel is owned by athena and her daughter irilena who are both absolutely lovely. athensa's sister anna sup**vises the breakfast - she is really nice too and always has a beaming smile first thing in the morning. a special mention too for olga the girl that works behind the bar 3 or 4 nights a week. she is amazingly funny and became a good friend.
as other people have said, people from other hotels drink in the bar and it is really good fun. almost everyone we met there had been there before - one couple were on their 9th visit.
place was spotlessly clean. a few people found the traffic noise bothersome apparently but we had a room at the back and didn't hear a thing.
if we return to kefalonia i wouldn't stay anywhere else. |

We stayed at the Irilena Hotel 13-27 May 07 there is only one word to describe our stay at this hotel -Fantastic!
We were very pleased with the level of hospitality shown to us by the owner Atheana & her family.
This really is a very nice small hotel much better than any other greek hotel we have stayed in.
This was our first time in kefalonia and i don't think it will be the last, the resort of Lassie has every thing you need in a holiday we ate at a different taverna every night prices are very reasonable & varied menu's mean there's something for all tastes and as you move around the island it has the most fantastic views & crystal clear sea.

Just returned from a week in the Irilena Hotel. It was the fourth time we had been to Lassi but the first in this Hotel. It was a great place to stay. Very clean and the staff were lovely. Breakfast was a bit 'samey' but it was cheap enough to go elsewhere a couple of days. We didn't know the hotel was airconditioned either which came in handy. Recommend the pools at either the Marianna Apartments (across the road) or the Malibu (on the way to Antonios beach).
We had a fantastic time and i was very upset to leave  .
Would recommend this hotel and resort to anyone |

| Just got back from 2 weeks at the Irilena Hotel in Lassi. We were very impressed, and although we were on the ground floor adjacent to the road we had no trouble sleeping. The room was very comfortable, cleaned daily and linen changed twice a week. Breakfast was a bit repetitive, but you can always pop into one of the tavernas for a change. Long beach is only about 5 minutes away and is a lovely sandy beach, with reasonably priced sunbeds and lovely clear water. The hotel staff were very friendly, and on the last day you have the use of full shower facilities situated in the basement - this was great seeing as our flight was at midnight. If we ever go back to Kefalonia then this is the hotel I would chose.
One tip - take some bread to the beach so that you can wade out and feed the fish - the water is so clear and you will be surrounded in no time at all.

We have just returned from a two week stay in Lassi and went for cheeky drinks and great company in the Irilena every night, after we stumbled across it on our first night. Although we didn't stay here we were made welcome by the manager (Athena - what a star!), the staff and the guests, and we soon made many friends. The rooms are clean and location excellent for beaches, pools and the restaurants and bars. If we return to Kefalonia we will definitely stay at the Irilena, you'd need to be a serious nerd to find fault with this hotel! Ask for the little book of cocktails behind the bar - fantastic! |

| We have just returned from 1 week in kefalonia August 2005.The weather was lovely, the Island beautiful, we spent most of our time at the beach. Also 2 pools you can use any of the local hotel pools which is great they are all within walking distance. The ressturants were all good very friendly and accomadating where the children were concerned. The hotel was verygood the usual basic Greek hotel breakfast was fine, the only complaint if any was, if your room at front of hotel is next to Lassi road which was very busy and noisy at times especially Saturday nights. |

| Although we were not guests at this hotel we became friends with a few couples who were. Some of the guests had read the negative comments and had been worried about what they would find. On leaving the hotel not one of the guests had a bad comment to make and i found Athena and her daughter and staff wonderful, nothing was too much trouble and the decor and cleanliness looked just fine to me and believe me i am FUSSY. The bar at night has a lovely atmosphere and the lowest prices in drinks. Like us there were lots of people who were not guests but called in every night. We have stayed in Lassi twice and i would not hesitate to recommend this hotel to anyone. Hello to Irilena if you read this from Lisa, Bill & James. |

| Yassou to all who are wondering what this Hotel is really like. Here is my version. Myself and a friend who has visited the Greek Islands 11 times stayed here for one week in May 2004. It was my first holiday in Greece. Traveling with Olympic Holidays, we were located in a front first floor room with a balcony (twin). The room was basic, clean and linen/towel change was regular. Although we expected the road to be busy and noisy, we had such a great holiday that we slept every night so I couldn't really tell you if there was a great deal of traffic through the night or not!! we had no problems with it at all. In fact, it was nice to be up in the morning to view the people of Kefalonia starting the day. We tended not to notice the traffic until we awoke at about 8ish, even with the balcony doors open all night. Breakfast was as stated on other postings, the same each day, ie boiled egg, bread and preserve, orange juice and coffee/tea. I had no problem with this but we did try our breakfast in the taverna opposite and enjoyed that also. We found fellow guests to be friendly and the bar was ideal, in fact people from other apartments and hotels were using the bar instead of the ones in the hotel they were staying at. Athena and the staff were wonderful. Not having a pool is no problem as we used the pool across the road or the Long Beach which is just minutes away. All in all we had a great week there and we would certainly go back and would be happy to stay at The Irlena Hotel again. Lassi is a lovely resort. The people of the Island are so genuinely friendly. I was very impressed all round and would like to take this opportunity to thank my lovely friend Marilyn for organising a memorable and fabulous holiday. Efharisto poli Mal. |
