The hotel hade a very nice location next to the beach, the only thing was you had to walk uphill for a few minutes to get to kalithea center. The elevators in the hotel were a little creepy, sometimes they stopped working and people got stuck in there and had to wait for assistance. The room was nice and clean and each day the cleaners fixed so that everything looked so organised when you came back. We had a room facing the yard and it was ok but had loved to pay extra for the sea view but it was apparently full booked. Would have made our stay so much better. The walls were very thin so you could here the neighbours talking all night. The wireless internet in the lobby didnt even work and we paid 2 Euros for it. The bar was nice and nice girl working there.
The breakfast was ok, i loved the greek cheese and tomatoes and the coffee. Had been nice with some fresh fruit and maybe a little more variation. But the breakfast view was amazing. The receptionists that worked there were not very friendly, the man who worked night though he was very nice.
Overall the hotel is not poor but not average. It is ok for people who dont expect too much.

Room Tip: Take the sea view!

“Fabulous location, good hotel”

Take no notice of the whingers who I'm sure want to keep this place to themselves. The room was clean with fresh linen and towels every day, and the air-con works well. If you were pleasant and polite to the staff they repaid you in spades. Food was well cooked and well presented although the choice was a little limited you could always find something that you would like to eat. The best thing last - the location. The view of the turquoise Aegean while you are eating breakfast or dinner is just beautiful. We had a great holiday.

“The Greek Policy!!!They squeeze blood from a stone...”

Reviewed 30 May 2011

Of course,these days Kallithea was empty!Apart from this,the dinner was not delicious.Many food were not fresh and some were cold.The pool was not so clean and the rooms not renovated.The hotel must do a renovation immediately.The beach is rather clean and of course the fact that the hotel is next ot the sea is a good point.Moreover,the hotel provides jakouzi but you have to pay 24euro for a couple/hour.Too much expensive.Not so many allocations.

I think you are exaggerating a bit.
1) You chose to go on vacation on May. This is almost the beginning of the season. Kallithea was not full of people but certainly it was not empty.
2) You state that “the dinner was not delicious”. This is something completely objective and it depends on every people’s unique taste. We are trying to satisfy the majority.
3) We serve hot and cold dishes
4) May is generally a sunny month. The weather is unpredictable. On a rainy day the pool, as you say, “is not so clean”.
5) On our site you can see when the hotel was build and when it was renovated. You can also see pictures of it and it is certainly not as you describe it. You chose to come here for your vacation. We are a four star hotel and we are proud of it. If you expected something more for the money you paid (payment for a four star hotel) you should contact your travel agent. Our prices are also the prices for a four star hotel.
6) On our site and in the info we give to agents we state that Jacuzzi is not free. If they told, you before you come, that it is free they lied to you.

We are sorry for the inconvenience.

“A very good value for money”

This hotel is a perfect choice for someone who is after sea and beach and not the hotel itself. It is situated straight on the beach, the entrance into water is very lean, perfect for small children.
The room: rather small, the bathroom should be changed completely but is clean. The view from the balcony (we had sea view, 3d floor) is absolutely gorgeous.
Food: halfboard - the buffet was not extraodinarily reach, but quite OK, simple and tasty food. Beverages not included and rather expensive.
The beach: beautiful, sandy, some small rocks thouhg. Small fishes pinched our feet in water if we stayed on one place somewhat longer. They charge you extra for the umbrellas and sunbeds, we never used them - a towel on the sand is quite enough, especially when you stay in water most of the time.
The town: Kalithea is a very nice town with lots of taverns and small souvenir-shops. The ruins of an antic Ammon Zeus temple are right next to the hotel
