"Very clean & comfortable. Beds were great, pillows not good. Bedroom layout and space is more than enough. Bathroom is large, with privacy. Balcony is huge! Housekeeping is meticulous. Swimming is great. Bar was busy, bartender very formidable. We didn't go to the beach, its across the street.Would stay there again"

Samaria Hotel

Samaria Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Was a pleasure to stay at this hotel during our 5 night stay! The hotel is very close to the old town/harbor where all the action takes place. There there are tons of shops, restaurants and boats to chose from. Next to the hotel is a Hilton property with a great restaurant on the the roof from from where we saw a great sunset one night. The staff of the Samarian are excellent. Always smiling and willing to help you, we had an issue with our iron. When I brought this up it was quickly replaced with a much better one. The food they serve is also very good. We had an excellent beet salad, sandwich and pasta dish. The bourbon and whiskey section they have is also very special. The breakfast that was included in the room rate was served at a nice location (near the pool) had a great variety and was also excellent. I will remember the smiling staff for a long time!"
