Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is just a 3-minute walk to the charming Agia Pelagia seaside beach town, offering easy access to cafes, markets, and waterfront tavernas. The rooms are clean and well-equipped, though on the small side with dated decor. The staff is incredibly helpful and friendly, enhancing the overall experience. The dining options are varied but slightly pricey. The pool area boasts stunning views over the bay, making it a relaxing spot to unwind after a day at the beach.
The hotel offers modern, spotlessly clean, and comfortable rooms, but note that the 'Superior studio' is similar in size to a standard double room. The friendly staff provides excellent service with special deals for local services. The location, a 3-minute walk from the charming seaside town, offers a fantastic sea view above the bay, though it's up a steep hill. The dining options are quite good, albeit a bit pricey. The facilities are well-maintained, and the hotel is near the beach, making it convenient for a relaxing stay.
