“Our favourite hotel in Plakias- if not Greece! A warm welcome is always assured and this family run hotel ticks all the boxes for us. Everyone works hard to make sure everything is maintained to the highest possible standard. Rooms are simple but well decorated and equipped; each has a balcony, air conditioning and a safety deposit box. The beds are super comfy and the whole hotel is immaculately clean. Breakfast, this time, was even better than we remembered with a fabulous selection of hot and cold food- including Cretan specialities (Cheese, pastries and dakos) great bread and a selection of fresh fruit. The new coffee machine is an excellent addition and offers a choice of coffee. We couldn’t ask for any more. A special mention to the young woman who cleans the hotel, she works so hard and does a brilliant job. Thank you!”

“This hotel ticked all the boxes for us. We were greeted by a lovely lady who escorted us to our room and was very efficient. The room itself was very clean , the bed huge and very comfortable. It also had a fridge, tv, free Wi-Fi and hairdryer.
The bathroom was clean with shower. The breakfast was very good, pastries, cereals, fruit, egg, bacon tea coffee and fruit juices.
The location is literally 2 minutes from the town centre. There is also handy supermarket opposite the hotel.
Highly recommended!”

“We had a very room with a separate bedroom and a living room with large sofa, small table and kitchenette. Even though we didn’t cook in we did use the refrigerator for drinks and some fruit. Room was very clean. Looked like it had been recently renovated. Unusually large bathroom compared to a lot of hotel rooms I’ve stayed in throughout Greece. AC units were nice and quiet and cooled the unit down very quickly. We stayed 7 nights and would stay here again if we visit Plakias. The very reasonable room rate included breakfast and my only comment about the breakfast I wish they offered fresh orange juice and cappuccino or expresso at breakfast. We solved the juice issue by purchasing fresh OJ in the evening from one of the nearby coffee bars and putting it in the fridge overnight for the next morning. Great value for the money and so convenient to everything in Plakias.”
