Accommodation

For visitors planning day walks Corfu offers an excellent choice of reasonably priced hotels and family-run guesthouses, often with an attached café-restaurant. Some suggestions can be found in Appendix B. Staying in a resort, usually booked through a tour operator, can be an excellent deal thanks to the all-inclusive formula whereby limitless meals and drinks are paid for in advance, but check the location carefully. Unless you opt for accommodation in Corfu Town or a village with good bus links, a hire car will be essential to access the walks.

Corfu offers many family-run guesthouses, often with an attached café-restaurant

Hotels and resorts generally accept credit cards, but always check, especially at small family-run establishments. Where possible advance reserve in advance, either directly to the accommodation provider or online through sites such as www.booking.com (which charge owners a commission). Rooms to let always have an en suite bathroom, and often turn out to be flats with a kitchen: at worst there will be an electric kettle. Breakfast is not always included, often an advantage for walkers who can see to their own and make an early start instead of wandering around a village in search of an early-opening café. Be aware that many apartments are available for single-night stays as well as longer term. Don’t hesitate to ask.
