Fiscardonna Luxury Suites

Kefallonia


One of the few hotels in town, this five-room boutique choice, in a lovingly restored building dating to 1840, mixes the old with utterly modern technological marvels (you're unlikely to have seen door-key swipes quite like these). The result doesn't quite gel, but it's very comfortable all the same. It's in a quiet side alley just back from the waterfront.
