Reviews and Ratings
The hotel has a nice view, but the room was never dark enough to sleep as it gets lit when the sun rises. The service was amazing with very kind and helpful staff. The location is very good, near the beach and shops, accessible with public transport. The dining experience was good with fresh options, although not ideal for a rushed start.
The hotel may not be in the best location, being a bit far from Glyfada center shops and restaurants, but it's really worth it for the friendly and helpful service and the breathtaking sea view from the room. The breakfast selection is fantastic, but dining options feel limited for the price. The facilities are good overall, offering a comfortable stay with value for money.
The hotel is in a great location close to the tram station. The rooms were clean and comfortable, although a bit small with insufficient hanging space. The service was consistently nice and helpful. The dining experience was rich and enjoyable, with a la carte options available. The facilities were well-maintained and modern.
My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The rooms were spotless, although a fresh coat of paint would do them good. The layout with two twin beds pushed together felt a bit cramped, and occasional noise from the road was noticeable. The service was excellent, with staff going above and beyond to ensure guest satisfaction. The location, while not perfect due to road noise, was convenient being close to a public beach. The dining experience had its ups and downs, with delicious options but limited choices for a rush in the morning. The facilities were adequate for a comfortable stay.
The hotel is situated facing the main road, with clean and hygienic rooms despite a weird layout having the sink inside the bedroom. The staff are friendly and helpful; however, there are no family rooms available. The location is convenient for accessing public transport but may be noisy due to the bustling avenue. The dining experience is basic with limited options. The hotel lacks some facilities that could enhance the overall stay.
The hotel offers basic rooms with lovely balconies and sea views, though a bit small for their price. The mattress is comfortable. The service is excellent, with staff going above and beyond to ensure guest satisfaction. The location is a bit far from the city center but ideal for exploring attractions around Athens. The dining experience is not suitable for those in a rush. The facilities meet expectations.
Staying at this hotel was an overall pleasant experience. The rooms were wonderful, comfortable, and clean, providing a reassuring sense of hygiene during these times. However, the noise from the street side was a bit bothersome, especially on the first night of my stay.
The hotel is situated in a beautiful location, perfect for enjoying Glyfada and exploring Athens. The rooms are nice and clean, though slightly small, and the service is exceptional, with staff going out of their way to assist. The dining experience, while basic, is satisfactory. The facilities are well-maintained, making for a comfortable stay overall.
The hotel has nice and clean rooms, although somewhat small. The reception and bar are at the back, which is not too bad. The service was pleasant overall but had some errors. The location is great if you like the Glyfada area, but it might be difficult to sleep. The dining experience offers a fantastic selection. The facilities are satisfactory.
