Hotels in Kalambaka and Kastraki
Most people who visit Meteora stay overnight either
in the modern town of Kalambaka or in the smaller village of Kastraki.
There
are hotels and rooms of different categories as well as campsites in both
towns. Kastraki is smaller and closer to the monasteries and many people
prefer staying here. Kalambaka and Kastraki are only a fifteen minute walk
from each other so if you can't find rooms in one town just go to the next.
But in the summer months you are advised to book in advance since you may find something but there is always the possibility you won't. If you can't find a room in Meteora then stay down the road in Trikala which is less touristy and has a beautiful downtown and lots of cafes and restaurants. Also if you can't find a hotel consider doing a tour with Fantasy Travel who reserve rooms in advance
and have availability when the other sites don't. You can also use
Matt's Create an Itinerary Form to get assistance with hotels and putting together an itinerary that included Meteora.
