We had a fantastic new year's holiday at this hotel. The food was absolutely delicious, with a variety of dishes to choose from. We especially enjoyed the salads and the freshly baked bread. The staff were friendly and accommodating, and the service was excellent.
The rooms were a bit outdated and could use some modernization. the bathroom could benefit from some renovations.

The staff really made my holiday unforgettable - they were all lovely and provided excellent service throughout my stay. From the moment I arrived, their warm welcome and genuine hospitality made me feel right at home. The hotel facilities were top-notch, offering clean and well-maintained amenities that added to the overall comfort of my experience. Additionally, the location was perfect, right on the beach and close to the charming Sissi Island. I also appreciated the convenient transportation options available, making it easy for me to explore even the hard-to-reach areas of this beautiful island.
All was good.

We had a great time at the hotel! The room was basic but clean, and the staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. The food at the restaurant was delicious, with a good selection for breakfast and dinner. Despite some minor issues with the drains, they were quickly resolved. The pool area was always busy but we always managed to find a sunbed. we had a homely experience and would definitely recommend this hotel to others. Overall I would highly recommend this hotel for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

The hotel offered great value for money, providing a comfortable stay at an affordable price. The staff were friendly and attentive, going above and beyond to ensure a pleasant experience. I loved the attention to detail, such as the personalized service in the dining room where the waiter remembered my drink of choice. The rooms with balconies overlooking the garden filled with lemon trees were a delightful touch.
All was perfect, no improvements needed.

I recently had a fantastic stay at this hotel. I was impressed with the value for money. It was well worth the price I paid, and I felt like I got a great deal. Additionally, the attention to detail throughout the hotel was commendable. From the beautiful lemon trees in the garden, visible from my room's balcony, to the clean and well-maintained common areas, it was clear that the staff put effort into creating a pleasant atmosphere. The location of the hotel was also perfect - just a short walk down to the beach and even close to Sissi Island. Lastly, I have to mention the staff who were incredibly friendly and welcoming. Their exceptional service truly made my stay memorable.
No improvements needed, everything was just perfect.
