Great view - bad hotel.
The hotel has spectacular views. That's about the end of the good. The bathroom was less than desirable, the open shower was directly next to the toilet that flooded when we showered. We requested additional towels to soak up the water and were told NO. The 2 towels we were provided were uncomfortable and scratchy. The "king" bed was two small beds pushed together and made separately with sheets so if you wanted to sleep next to your partner you would fall between the beds as they separated. To enjoy the view, you have to be comfortable with the rooms next to you seeing directly into your room as the balconies are separated by waist high open railings. Zero privacy. If you want to hear the ocean with the sliding doors open, you have to sacrifice your night with a room full of mosquitos as there are no screens on the sliding doors. We invited friends over to hang out on the balcony one night and the concierge called us and told us they had to leave as we only paid for 2 people. What's the point of having a big balcony overlooking the sea if you can't enjoy it with your friends? There was not ironing board or iron in the room, when we requested we were only given an old iron which left brown stains on our clothes because it was rusty. If you want a great view and don't care about anything else, this is the hotel for you. If you want any kind of service or hospitality...look elsewhere.

It is a very nice hotel, my room was perfect, very nice spacious reception area.Covered outdoor dining beside the sea with very good food. Cannot praise the reception staff enough, they were most helpful.

Great location close to busy shops bars and restaurants, but far enough not to be bothered by noise. modern,clean hotel .Lovely room 101 with sea view. Staff friendly and efficient. Only downside was cooked breakfast, was consistently cold. Despite this would definitely return.

Good, some staff could be better.
Nice hotel, good location, good air conditioning. Breakfast very average. Some staff we found to be very unhelpful. 10% discount on food for hotel guests turned out to be incorrect, asked the waiter and he said "only at some tables", then made an issue the following day because we never left a tip, all very petty and childish. Small issue with another member of staff regards the safe, not interesting in helping.

Нормальный отель за свои деньги!!!
Отель компакт, при большом количестве номеров но маленькой территории, есть свой ресторан с 10 % скидкой для гостей отеля, мини бассейн, стандартные завтраки (но если без капризов , то вполне достойные), номера небольшие, чистые, аккуратные.

Godt hotel med god størrelse lejlighed
Hotellet og lejligheden var rigtig lækkert. Men i byen var der lidt for meget “gang i den” til os. Der var en del støj fra gaden udenfor om natten.

Très bon accueil
L'hôtel est récemment rénové, propre avec de la place pour garer la voiture. Le patron ainsi que le reste du personnel sont charmants et très accueillants. Notre chambre donnait sur la mer et était calme de jour comme de nuit. Le seul bémol pour un appart-hôtel est l'absence de plaques chauffantes et de four micro-ondes. Enfin, une remise est appliquée aux résidents au restaurant.

Leuk hotel voor een redelijke prijs!
Personeel aan de balie mag iets vriendelijker en meedenkender zijn. Je kunt zien dat ze nog niet gewend zijn aan een hotel. Ligging is geweldig. Wij hebben alleen ontbijt gehad wat voldoende was. Alles staat in verhouding van prijs / kwaliteit.

The receptionists were kind and helpful. We didn't like that the room keepers didn't clean at all bathroom for 4 days, we just received the shampoo and shower gel only if asked. The hotel in general is fine, good breakfast, good position and quite, with a nice view and 2 minutes walking from the noisy area with clubs and restaurants.

Udemærket hotel
Udemærket hotel. Dog en anelse skuffet over morgenmadsbuffet, hvor den varme mad var kold, og den kolde mad var varm. Lille fint poolområde, samt god beliggenhed ift strand. Tæt på byen, dog desværre i den forkerte ende.

Flott opphold, med gode senger og rene rom. Frokost kunne hatt litt mer å velge i, og juice kunne drikke vært kald. Minus med rommet var at det var veldig lytt mellom rom/ terrasser . Men det var heldigvis stille om nettene.pluss at de hadde fått sirconvsiden sist bi bodde der i 93, og pent pusset opp.

Nice stay in front of the beach
The hotel is fine and located just outside the busy street of Chersonissos. Unfortunately the airco in our room was defect, but we changed room when it turned out it could not be fixed. The beach is in front of the hotel. Maybe not the best as it is rather small. The hotel has also a good restaurant for lunch/dinner and you can sit at the seaside.
