The Bold Type Hotel, a Member of Design Hotels

Very nice

Very cool hotel in Patras. Rooms are not big but well designed and appointed with comfortable bathroom. We had both dinner and breakfast poolside and food was outstanding!

The staff of this hotel is super service-minded. I had to change my dates last minute, and even though my rate was non-refundable, Mrs Athina very kindly moved my reservation to another date. I give my strongest recommendation to The Bold Type Hotel.

This is a lovely, stylish, small hotel in a restored building. I had a beautiful high ceilinged room on the ground floor which was tastefully decorated in a clean, modern style and there is good double glazing which blocks out most of the street noise. The staff were unfailingly helpful and polite. Breakfast was delicious and the menu offers a range of options which are not just your standard fare which I appreciated a lot. There is a nice garden at the back with a small pool which I am sure would be a great place to cool off in the summer. Despite the cooler weather when I visited, I enjoyed an afternoon beer by the pool in the sunshine. The location is not totally central, it is less than 10 minutes walk to the central square but there is a long flight of steps in the way. It is close to the Roman Odeon and the Castle and there are lots of restaurants around on Ifestou street (also down the steps). My one complaint would be about the functionality of the bathroom. It looks great but there is nowhere to put your own stuff. Whenever I see a hotel bathroom like this, I assume it was designed by a man who has never travelled with a woman with lots of different toiletries, make-up and so on!!
