Calipso, Piraeus Overview
Calipso is located in Piraeus, Greece. Rated 8.0 out of 10 based on 4 guest reviews.
Calipso is a practical apartment stay in Piraeus, Greece, set at 212 Akti Themistokleous, where the waterfront energy of the port district meets everyday city life. With a guest rating of 8/10 from a small set of reviews, the overall impression is of a comfortable base that suits travelers who value straightforward essentials and easy access to Piraeus. Check-in runs from 3:00 PM until midnight, and check-out is at 11:00 AM, which helps you plan around ferry or city schedules.
The appeal here is in the basics that matter on a short trip: air conditioning for warmer days, free wired internet for staying connected without fuss, and a non-smoking environment throughout the property. Reviews from past guests mention that the stay feels geared toward independent routines, and that reliability of internet and climate control makes a noticeable difference when you’re returning after a day in town.
Location is the other big factor. From Calipso, you can reach Piraeus Port in about 1 km, making it a sensible choice for ferry travelers and anyone using Piraeus as a gateway. The area also gives you quick access to the seafront atmosphere, with Freatida Beach around 1–2 km away and Votsalakia Beach roughly 2–3 km out for a relaxed walk. If you want a dose of local culture beyond the docks, the Archaeological Museum of Piraeus is about 3 km from the address.
Calipso is best for solo explorers and couples who want a no-nonsense, well-connected stay in Piraeus rather than a resort-style experience.
