Greek Hotel and Accommodation Phrases

These phrases cover the most common hotel moments in Greece: arriving, confirming a reservation, asking about your room and facilities, reporting a problem, and checking out. The page uses the everyday words you are likely to hear at reception, including common hotel loanwords like check-in, check-out, and Wi-Fi. Use the polite forms by default with staff; the statements for broken items are short and direct because that is how they are normally reported.

A few things to know

Register

polite by default

Use polite Greek with hotel staff. 'Θα ήθελα' is the safest way to make a request, and 'μπορείτε' is the normal polite form for questions. Short neutral statements such as 'Το ντους δεν λειτουργεί.' are also fine when you are reporting a problem.

grammar

Reservation names with στο όνομα

In 'Καλησπέρα, έχω κράτηση στο όνομα [name].', the phrase 'στο όνομα' is the standard hotel way to say 'under the name'. The form 'στο' is the contracted shape of σε + το, and the surname normally follows directly after it.

usage

The everyday elevator word in Greece

In 'Πού είναι το ασανσέρ;', 'ασανσέρ' is the everyday word people use in Greece for an elevator. Staff will also understand 'ανελκυστήρας', but that sounds more formal and is less common in casual hotel speech.

Try it yourself

Choose the right phrase

Pick what you would say in each situation.

Question 1 of 3

  1. Question 1
  2. Question 2
  3. Question 3
You are at the front desk and need to say that the booking is under your surname.
