I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were clean and spacious, with a super cozy feel. The service was excellent, with friendly and helpful staff. The location offered stunning views and was close to the town center, though a bit far on foot. The dining experience was a bit of a letdown, but the overall facilities were great.

The hotel rooms are to a very high standard, very clean, and comfortable. The modern decor with wooden floors and green decorations was appealing, though the lack of a direct sea view was initially disappointing, but the receptionist quickly addressed this by offering another room the next day. Overall, the hotel could benefit from a little renovation.

Rooms

8.0

The rooms were very modern with wooden floors and green decorations. Initially, no straight view to the sea due to trees in between but was provided another room the following day. Could use a little bit of an overhaul.

Service

9.0

The hotel service was overall pleasant and the rooms were always clean. The staff, particularly the bar man Manolis and the rest of the team, were very friendly and helpful, enhancing the guest experience.

Location

7.0

The hotel's location, high on a hill, offered spectacular views but could be challenging logistically, especially for finding the hotel through the city's one-way streets and dead ends. The high elevation made it a bit of a trek on foot.

Dining

7.0

The food presentation was satisfactory, featuring mainly ham, cheese, fresh baguettes, jams, cereals, and a limited choice. The pool-side service, where salads were freshly prepared upon order, stood out positively.
