Reviews
The hotel was nice, i had a good night and bath. I didn't took the time to breakfast.
- Kalavasos is a beautiful village, two very nice restaurants and ample parking
- Breakfast functional
Cons:
- We didn't realise that we wouldn't be staying at the main building which is in all the pictures online and part of our main appeal
- Not very impressed with the spa area, which you have to book in advance and the sauna doesn't get very warm, pool is tiny
- Service was mixed
- Bedroom was clean (thanks Priya!) but very thin sheet, bottom sheet wasn't large enough to cover the mattress, and only one pillow each. We asked for one more each but there weren't any available
The room was clean.
We enjoyed very much
Thank you
My trip required me to be near this village to easily visit friends residing there, and I just required a comfortable bed and clean bathroom as would be out during daytime.
This small hotel met my requirements.
Modern fully equipped bathroom, with rainshower, and large tub too ( jacuzzi function wasn't working). Towels changed daily.
Large comfortable bed with clean sheets.
Stocked minibar.
Free drinking water not provided.
Room furniture was a bit rustic but in usable condition.
Room corners etc could be cleaned a bit more carefully.
Breakfast buffet was included in my room rate and was minimal but sufficient, unless you're a heavy eater.
Overall, if I ever revisit Kalavasos, I may pick this place again, as it met my needs plus manager and staff were quite pleasant.
Thank you!
Hyggelig personale og god service. Rolig og stille sted. Hotellet ser ganske sjabby ut utvendig, men invendivg ser det bedre ut og vårt rom var stort og fint.
