“Don’t expect a lot!”

We stayed in Aristoteles beach hotel for seven nights, 4 adults and 2 kids. We have been reading TripAdvisor reviews which seams to be a bit ingenious. We dint have any great expectations but still we were a bit unpleasantly surprised. Upon the arrival we got rooms on the edge of the hotel (the problem is not the ‘edge’), where rooms were not refurbished or any way improved. We asked specifically to have rooms next to each other, but we were told that hotel is fully booked and we got rooms on different floors ( we have booked rooms in February). The corner buildings were really unsupervised, plasters were hanging out, window frames were stripped of paint. Both rooms looked so different! One was in harsh green color, the other one had a black feature wall. The most horrific was the smell from the bathroom. Bathrooms didn’t have any window (only a vent shaft), no shower curtains, they was wet and slippery. They looked like they have been showered just before we arrived. There were facial hair on the glass shelve in the bathroom, and all room was very poorly cleaned all week! We had to ask them to change our towels and bedding was not changed at all. There was an electric socket hanging, very dangerous for kids. Food was ok for 3 stars. There was usually lack of meat and you had to lurk around when more meat was brought. The guests in the restaurant were really rude, filling their plates like they have never eaten, then they left a lot leftovers. The waiters worked very hard and were polite. Animation team was great and they kept kids occupied all the time, either with kids club or on the beach. We stayed at the pool only one day as beach and sea was better. Music next to the pool was good though. The beach was pretty full and you had to reserve your sunbeds at 7-8am, if you wanted to lay close to the sea. There were only few places with easy access to the sea, especially for kids. You had to have shoes. Water was really warm, and relatively clean, random seaweeds when it was windy. The bar next to the beach was very nice too. Friendly staff, serving you smile. They had the best Greek cider, Milo Kleftis. We walked to Lidl twice but it is a dangerous track, wouldn’t do it in the dark. To sum it up, Aristoteles beach hotel was a well run down place, it needed a massive refresh. But you got what you paid for so you had to accept few problems. The surrounding area was nice, great views but for a week it was too long to stay without car. We wouldn’t return.
