I recently stayed at this hotel and overall it was a decent experience. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but I was a bit disappointed that the room I got didn’t match the pictures I saw. The location is fantastic, right by the beach and close to plenty of shops and restaurants, which was a real highlight. However, there were some issues with privacy as it felt a bit crowded and I did have a minor incident with some property being stolen from the balcony. Overall, while there were some pros and cons, it’s a place with great potential if a few things are improved.

The hotel had a great location, right on the promenade of Hersonissos and close to everything, which made it really convenient for getting around. The rooms were incredible, with a nice balcony, though there was an issue with the water draining slowly. The staff was super friendly and went out of their way to help us. However, the dining experience fell a bit short for my family, and my daughter was initially disappointed with the menu options.

The hotel has a fantastic location, just a short walk from the beach and close to many shops and restaurants. The staff here is incredibly friendly, making the stay more enjoyable.

The hotel has a great location with plenty of shops and restaurants nearby, making it convenient for exploring. The staff is super friendly and accommodating, which added a nice personal touch to our stay. However, the rooms could be a bit bigger, especially for a honeymoon. While the breakfast had a nice variety, it was more European style, which might not be to everyone's taste but was still enjoyable.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location was absolutely perfect, right by the beach and close to numerous shops and restaurants. However, I found the rooms not as clean as I hoped, with some hair left on the floor and bed. The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, especially when they surprised me with a birthday cake on arrival, which was a nice touch.
