Ionikos Hotel in Kefalos

Stayed here with my wife,daughter and longtime friend in 3 rooms,1 double and 2 singles. Upon arrival met by Chrisoula and informed they were overbooked causing us to be put in lesser rooms than booked for 1 night,then hopefully get rooms we booked.After lots of tired discussion with another staff member we agreed as nowhere else available to go too as we would’ve if possible informing them of views! Rooms were o.k. But not as booked(de luxe sea view upper floors).True to her word Chrisoula placed us in our booked rooms next day.These rooms were fine but the bathroom was a shocker! Old and outdated.Shower difficult to move in as very small.Shower-head falling off hook frequently,poor pressure and grubby inside due to age.towels rail fell off minute 1 and left off.Rest of bathroom fittings very poor due to age and condition,specifically shower cubicle,sink,toilet.Rest of room o.k. Including small fridge,air con etc. Breakfast basic and as I am Coeliac was provided with alternative selection( Thanks Chrisoula).I have to say Chrisoula did her best to make things better but the fact is that this hotel needs desperately upgrading a lot and I said this so no surprise and the family know this but alas I feel this won’t happen which is a shame as it is potentially very good with money spent and it is in a good spot with a nice pool and surroundings.Access to beach,shop and tavernas good.I would not stay here again due to 1 thing,,Bathroom really outdated and tatty.Chrisoula,please don’t be offended by this review as you know it was coming and it would be wrong of me not to highlight it for others.Best of luck in your future.

The pool bar was nice. Very friendly staff.
