Reviews and Ratings
The hotel needs renovation and the rooms had a musty and moldy smell. The location offers a beautiful view but requires transportation to reach other attractions. Dining prices were reasonable, but the service was basic.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was amazing with beautiful views, but some areas like the rooms need renovation as they were noisy and infested with cockroaches. The service was mixed with some staff going above and beyond while others seemed uninterested. The dining experience was superb with a variety of fresh choices, and the facilities were well-maintained despite needing some refurbishment.
My stay at the bungalows was excellent, with rooms facing the beach and a balcony providing a great view. However, the rooms generally need renovation, especially those not facing the pool. The location, right on the sea, was attractive, allowing easy access for those driving around Greece, but a car is necessary to explore the area. The dining experience was good with fresh options, and the facilities were well-maintained. Overall, a great value for money.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel with great views over Patras Bridge and the sea and mountains from my suite. The staff, despite not being paid salaries for months, were polite and accommodating, except for those at the beach restaurant and bar. The location was amazing with a view of the beach, mountains, and bridge, although a bit secluded, requiring either transport or a long walk on poorly lit roads to reach other restaurants.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were clean, comfortable, and offered a stunning view of the swimming pool and the Rio bridge. The service was impeccable, especially by the friendly and professional beach staff. The location, although a bit far from other attractions, was amazing with beautiful views. The dining experience was delightful with fresh options. The facilities were top-notch and contributed to a pleasant stay.
