![Olympia (Greek: Ὀλυμπία; Ancient Greek: [ˈolympia]; Modern Greek: [ˈolibia] Olympía), a sanctuary of ancient Greece in Elis on the Peloponnese peninsula, is known for having been the site of the Olympic Games in classical times.
The Olympic Games were held every four years throughout Classical Antiquity, from the 8th century BC to the 4th century AD. The first Olympic Games were in honor of Zeus.
The Olympic Games (Greek: Ολυμπιακοί αγώνες , "Olympiakoi Agones") were a series of athletic competitions among representatives of city-states and one of the Panhellenic Games of Ancient Greece. They were held in honor of Zeus, and the Greeks gave them a mythological origin. Historical records indicate that they began in 950-776 BC in Olympia. They continued to be celebrated when Greece came under Roman rule, until the emperor Theodosius I suppressed them in 394 AD as part of the campaign to impose Christianity as the state religion of Rome. The games were held every four years, or olympiad, which became a unit of time in historical chronologies.

7.6 out of 10, Good, (93)
"Hotel is extremely dated. Sign in the elevator asks guests not to use A/C above 25 degrees Celsius (77F!) so as not to trigger a blackout. Beds are awful - hard & lumpy. Received only a single sheet for bed covering. The beach is nice. Water very clear. Lounge chairs on the beach mostly old and uncomfortable and in need of replacing. "

5/5 Excellent
"We loved this place. The hotel is comfortable, with AC in the rooms, good beds, TV, hairdryer, a little fridge and a balcony with amazing views of the sea. The beach is beautiful, but with stones - mind your feet. They offer breakfast, simple but good.
Nearby there is a shop and a few restaurants to eat or drink something, enough for lunch and dinners. Important: don't forget to use a mosquito repellent here and in all the Peloponnese!"
