This is an excellent 3* hotel with a very relaxed atmosphere. The bedding towels changed everyday. The rooms are perfect ,clean and Greek. The food was very good and something for everyone. The location couldn't be any better, 1 min marina beach and excellent walks around the peninsula from Marina to the port and lake this way is a flat surface to walk it. The hotel staff are one big family and brilliant, the room staff really work hard to keep everyone happy, restaurant staff very attentive and quick tockear and clean, 24 hkur reception very experienced, I even experienced Greek dancing with the manager. Perfect spot. Love to Maria, Shophie and Demetris. Xx

As previous reviews have stated, there are many more positives than negatives with this hotel. First the negatives, the single room I was in was clean, but in need of a general update; there was also a safety issue where the gap between the end of the bed and the wall where the TV was fixed, was so narrow that you had to crane your neck to avoid a collision. Onto the positives. The hotel is a city hotel, and shouldn’t be compared with large all inclusive hotels. The facilities are fine, it’s well organised, and pleasantly compact, and very close to a beach and the town centre. The town is quite hilly in parts, but lovely, and a pleasure to walk round and explore. The food, though repetitive at times, was better than I’ve experienced in four and five star all inclusives in other countries. A lot of it is home made. Again, as per previous reviews, the staff are the real asset; they’re all incredibly pleasant and polite, and helpful should you need it. They will also happily share knowledge of the area, places to go etc.

We've just come back from the appolon hotel. The staff are what make this hotel ,and the cleanliness was second to none We were looked after and couldn't have asked for anymore. The hotel is basic but thats fine for what we paid to stay here , the way we were treated meant so much more. The location is amazing and I would 💯 return to this hotel. We came here as strangers and we left feeling like friends. Thank you to all the staff that went above and beyond. Thanks for helping make our holiday a great one and memorable

1. Staff pleasant and helpful 2. Restaurant, bar & reception was modern & clean. 3. 2 minute to beach and close to restaurants, bars, cafes & shops. 4. Beds were comfortable & clean. 1. No tea/coffee making facilities in the room. 2. Room was booked as a standard double room but it was a twin room. 3. Room was very dated and needs some updating. 4. No storage for toiletries etc in the bathroom. 5. Going down to the toilets in the bar area was dangerous as the last step was broken and covered with a towel/blanket. Also the floor was continuously covered with water. 6. Be aware when checking out of the room as they remove your all inclusive band so you have to pay for food and drinks. We was not getting picked up until 9pm. 7. Nowhere to get changed in the hotel after you had checked out of the room. 8. No umbrellas for the sun beds out by the pool. 9. Our balcony overlooked a derelict building and not a city view as the booking suggested.
