Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is located in a great spot, just a short walk from Areopoli's bars and taverns, making it really convenient to explore the area. However, while the staff was friendly and helpful, the service was a bit lacking in terms of organization. The rooms definitely need some attention; they felt cold and had a strong cigarette smell, which was quite off-putting. On the upside, the dining experience was pleasant with decent handmade options.
The hotel offers a stunning location that's just a short walk from Areopolis’ bars and taverns, making it super convenient for dining out and exploring the area. While the rooms are adequate and clean, they could really use some reconditioning. The service was friendly and provided everything we needed, but there were a couple of hiccups during our stay. Overall, it's a decent stay but not without its flaws.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location was fantastic, being just a short walk from the city and local attractions. My room was spacious with a lovely balcony view, but the heating was inadequate during the colder nights. The staff was friendly and helpful, but I did have an unfortunate incident regarding privacy with photos. Dining options were limited in quality, which was disappointing given the local culinary scene. Overall, it was a comfortable stay with a few notable issues.
I found this hotel to be in a great location, just a short walk from Areopolis' lively bars and taverns, which was super convenient for evenings out. The rooms were large, comfy, and equipped well, although we had a bit of trouble with the strong cigarette smoke smell. The staff were welcoming, but there was a slight lack of engagement towards the end of the season. Overall, it was a decent stay; just not without its flaws.
The hotel is in a prime location, just a short walk from the charming town of Areopoli and conveniently close to beaches in Mani. The room I stayed in, while nice, had a strong smell of cigarette smoke and was quite exposed to passersby, which was a bit uncomfortable. Service could definitely use some improvement, as the staff wasn't very welcoming. Overall, the stay had its ups and downs, but it was decent value for money considering the location.
