A must see in Corfu . A beautiful palace at a very nice location with nice gardens full of amazing statues . At the entrance you can pick up a headset and listen to stories about the exhibits .

Delfino Blu Hotel

The palace was designed with the mythical hero Achilles  as its central theme. Achilleion's location provides a panoramic view of Corfu city to the north & across the whole southern part of the island .

Ariadni Markouizou

By far one of the most organised museums in Greece and a treasure for the island . Make sure to visit it

If u visited Vienna then it’s nothing close in beauty. Not maintained at all. But I advise u to visit.

Avrupa'nın en çok bilinen kral evlerinden biri. 1890 yılında İtalyan mimarlar Raffaele Caritto ve Antonio Landi tarfından yapılmış. Giriş 8 avro.

Добраться самостоятельно можно на синем автобусе номер 10 за 1,50 eur от центра Корфу, площади San Rocco,ехать 20мин. Вход в музей стоит 7eur, есть аудио гид. 1-1,30 часа на все хватит.

Olya

Очень красивый и лаконичный дворец . Скульптуры в парке и история внутри дворца . 2 и 3 этажи пустые,т.к. раньше там было казино . По времени займет 1-1.30. Прекрасные виды на море .

Carolina Fleix

Precioso, vale la pena aunque no sabíamos que estaba parcialmente cerrado por obras. Los jardines y vistas espectaculares.

Roula Green

Corfu'da görülmesi gereken bir nokta..Kral ve kraliçeler Aşil temalı ve müthiş heykellerle dolu bu harika sarayda konaklamış .

Michaël Vandormael

Visite intéressante, audio guide gratuit avec le ticket d’entrée, à faire les jours calmes .

von allem etwas: Architektur , Ausstattung, Geschichte und ein hübscher Garten

Viacheslav Gulevskiy

Русская кривляющаяся "аристократия", Тебе сюда, что бы видеть свою ахиллесову пяту. Обязательно бери томик Гейне и прочти тут "Бродячие крысы",-выздоровление невозможно.

Irina Loginova

Очень красивое место :) но лучше сюда приехать как можно раньше, чтобы не гулять в толпе туристов-круизников :) тогда весь дворец и сад ваши!

Eva Font3cha

Pagar 5€ por visitar el jardín y los exteriores… me parece un robo!Espero y deseo que con el dinero que recauden este verano puedan rehabilitarlo como se merece.

Achillion staat beter bekend als het paleis van keizerin Sissy. Prachtige villa met goed onderhouden tuin . Mooi uitzicht op het noorden van Corfu. Dagelijks te bezichtigen.

Alina Khokhlova

Работает вечером до 20.00 - удобно, нет толп народа . Ходит автобус N 10. От бенитеса вполне реально дойти пешком - около 2 км.

Simona N.

Andare di pomeriggio per evitare una moltitudine di turisti che si affollano la mattina, per la visita c'è tempo fino alle 20 e sere un'oretta buona!

Nath Gonzalez

Sisi l impératrice joli endroit magnifiquement bien entretenu

Marianna-Sofia Matziri

Απίστευτη η θεα απο τους κήπους!! Ιδιαίτερη αρχιτεκτονική..

Igor Malchenkov

Красиво конечно, но больше похоже на усадьбу русскую

Ioannis Ps

Επειγόντως συντηρηση σε αυτο το υπέροχο ιστορικό κτήριο.

Geo Diam

Αξίζει σίγουρα μια επίσκεψή!!

Maria Mk

Απίστευτη ομορφιά!! Αλλά υπερβολικό το εισιτήριο!!!
