This is really the only place around for a night’s stay before flying out of Athens if your ferry is to Rafina. Price reflects that. There isn’t anything particularly wrong with hotel, nor is there anything particularly special. I certainly wouldn’t give this a 4 star rating. Staff are ok. I don’t find them rude like some other reviewers did. It’s not a destination hotel, just another port/airport hotel.

Great choice to stay after finishing a cruise

Airport pickup and dropoff was a great perk. Area that the hotel is located is excellent. Located right next to the sea and beach area. Onsite restaurant was very good. We stayed after a cruise that ended in Athens. If you want to be close to the busy and dirty area of downtown Athens, this isnt the place. If you want a more quiet and enjoyable stay, this is the place!

All of the staff member we encountered spoke excellent English ( 2 were Greek Americans). The balcony rooms are small/ tight but have nice balconies with view of the port and beach. Decent water pressure for shower. We chose this hotel primarily because it was in the beach but close to the airport with a good airport shuttle. Good breakfast.

This hotel was so lovely and the service was excellent! From the comfortable free shuttle service to the helpful reception staff the service was excellent. The view from the room was spectacular and I enjoyed the sound of live music playing from the beach bar opposite. It wasn’t too loud and you couldn’t hear it when balcony door was closed. The entire place had a lovely vibe.

Hospitality was lacking

The hotel itself was fine but the ladies at the front desk were fairly rude: no greeting upon arrival, not even eye contact. When we couldn’t check in early,which I understand if a room is not ready, they said for 30 euro they could check us in early. When we inquired whether this 30 euro was for an upgrade in the room we were told -no, just to check in early. When we finally did check in, someone was running the vacuum in the hallway for about an hour….which was LOUD…and kept us from resting well.
