Breakfast and dining draw mixed reactions, ranging from excellent to average or limited. Some appreciate easy parking, but lifts are small or slow and a few facilities have been under renovation or closed at times. Better for easygoing stays than for guests seeking a fully modern, upscale experience.

We stayed for one night before going home. We booked a hotel with a pool to make our last day relaxing. The pool was turning green and very dirty. None of the guests were swimming in it and that wasn’t surprising. The rooms were clean with comfy beds, but the noise from the main road kept us awake! We ate there in the evening, the menu was minimal but the dishes we chose were tasty. Drinks are cocktails were a little on the expensive side, 14 euros for a cocktail.

Most staff were lovely but one woman at breakfast was very rude. The hotel was so noisy because of the main road. The air conditioning didn’t seem to work and the two single beds were very narrow and far too soft, we both had bad backs after. However the pol area was lovely.

In tegenstelling tot 3 jaar geleden volledig ontgoocheld…slecht onderhouden, kleine trage liften, vuil afdak boven zwembad, terrasomheiningen verroest, achtergebleven vuile natte vodden achtergelaten op de kamer, k ‘knipperende’ ijskast … geen ontbijt genomen want verwachtte daar ook niet veel van, dus maar buiten gaan ontbijten… rooftopbar ook gesloten etc etc. Wel gemakkelijke parkeergelegenheid 🙏

Okay for short stays. Best thing is location and parking. Breakfast could be better (e.g. bread not fresh). Also pool undergoing renovation so could not be used. One of the initial rooms smelt intensely of smoke but receptionist was incredibly helpful and arranged alternative. Given the above would still stay again as staff are as accommodating as you could hope for

Good location near the beach with plenty of parking on the street behind the property. Not so friendly from desk staff ! The fellow with the beard seemed put out when asked for assistance ! The buffet breakfast is just average quality with average choices could use some improvement! Being on the main drive it’s a bit noisy from the traffic !

The property was well placed for public transport, buses to the front, and trams to the back, so Athens itself easily accessible. The beach is just across the road from the pool area, and was very safe, seemed to be used mainly by Greek families. The hotel was spotlessly clean, the staff could not have been more helpful. We had the buffet breakfast each day, and I don’t think there was anything you could have wanted left out. All freshly made. The rooms had proper air conditioning, and had everything you might need for your stay. Obviously there is some traffic noise at night, but after the first night we did not notice it. You are on the edge of the glyfafa area, but a one mile stroll along the Beach, or 3 tram stops and you are in the main area, too many shops to mention, both local and well known brands, and lots of cafes and eating places. Ps. Bus number A2 takes you into Athens, about a half hour away.

The property looks very nice from the outside and is also in an extremely convenient location, with a tram straight into Glyfada city centre and also few buses into city in front of it. Both transport stops were within 5 minutes walking distance, with 24 hour convenience shops also nearby. Getting to the rooms is manageable, there are 2 lifts that aren't big and could each only take 1 suitcase and 2 people - including a baby in a travel pram - before being full. The rooms are a decent size with enough space for a double bed and a baby cot, whilst also being able to move around with no issues. The wardrobes were pretty big and could take our suitcase / bags but there was also a little balcony, in case you wanted to store them there instead. The bathroom was pretty small, which is to be expected for the room size selected but it did the job. Only big issue with the bathrom, which doesn't apply to everyone, was how incredibly sharp and protruding the sink and shower space corners were. Bathing our 1 year old was anxiety-inducing as one misstep from them could be very problematic. The people were the best part of the hotel, they were absolutely lovely to us and went above and beyond with most of our requests, the only thing we think they could have done better was the cleaning of the rooms. Our bathroom bin was fully of soiled nappies for the 4 days duration of our trip, despite our room being cleaned once or twice. The bed sheets weren't renewed after the room was cleaned.

It's a very nice place to stay! beach and tram station right across the hotel with easy access. Only downside is if you're on the top floor like I was, the cleaning wasn't done properly as they never brought any products nor vacuum up. They dont change the sheets often and there was always sand in the bathub and toilets were never scrubbed. The other rooms on the lower floors all got a better cleaning as I saw them with many products and supplies. Overall the stay was good, the room was nice as well as the food and ambience. I would just recommend them to clean all the rooms accordingly

Rooms
Room size ranges from spacious to tight; many bathrooms are very small, with some using a sink-in-shower layout and a third bed that’s a chair. Several rooms feel dated, street-side noise is common, while sea views are praised.

Nice hotel right on the beach with it's inside swimming pool. The beds were very comfortable, although it can be a bit noisy as a main road passes right by. The area is excactly what you need for a getaway. The city is just a tram ride away. Even though i was there during lowseason and some repairs were made, i really enjoyed it. I ate in the hotel restaurant two nights instead of going to the city, the food was great!

You are on the edge of the glyfafa area, but a one mile stroll along the Beach, or 3 tram stops and you are in the main area, too many shops to mention, both local and well known brands, and lots of cafes and eating places. Ps. Bus number A2 takes you into Athens, about a half hour away.
The property was well placed for public transport, buses to the front, and trams to the back, so Athens itself easily accessible. The beach is just across the road from the pool area, and was very safe, seemed to be used mainly by Greek families. The hotel was spotlessly clean, the staff could not have been more helpful.

The property looks very nice from the outside and is also in an extremely convenient location, with a tram straight into Glyfada city centre and also few buses into city in front of it. Both transport stops were within 5 minutes walking distance, with 24 hour convenience shops also nearby. Getting to the rooms is manageable, there are 2 lifts that aren't big and could each only take 1 suitcase and 2 people - including a baby in a travel pram - before being full. The rooms are a decent size with enough space for a double bed and a baby cot, whilst also being able to move around with no issues. The wardrobes were pretty big and could take our suitcase / bags but there was also a little balcony, in case you wanted to store them there instead. The bathroom was pretty small, which is to be expected for the room size selected but it did the job. Only big issue with the bathrom, which doesn't apply to everyone, was how incredibly sharp and protruding the sink and shower space corners were. Bathing our 1 year old was anxiety-inducing as one misstep from them could be very problematic. The people were the best part of the hotel, they were absolutely lovely to us and went above and beyond with most of our requests, the only thing we think they could have done better was the cleaning of the rooms. Our bathroom bin was fully of soiled nappies for the 4 days duration of our trip, despite our room being cleaned once or twice. The bed sheets weren't renewed after the room was cleaned.

Hotellet ligger meget bra til rett ved stranden. Mellom Hotellet og stranden går det en Tram, men den er meget stille og merkes ikke. Den er kostnadseffektiv, billig og går til sentrum, 3 stop og andre veien inn til Athen sentrum, ca. 25 minutter. Rom på inngangssiden anbefales ikke da hovedveien blir brukt som farts-etappe for superbiler om natten. Meget hyggelig og serviseminded personell, bra basseng med bar og forfriskninger. Barnevennlig. Litt kjedelig frokost, men OK Litt små bad på noen rom, men mot strand og basseng er det meget bra. Godt hotell til en fornuftig pris. Vi var 2 voksne og en 12 åring. Trivdes meget bra.

We loved the beach and tram access. The staff was very nice and the pool was awesome. If we go back, we'll probably try to get a water view room. The street side is pretty loud at night due to motorbike racing until the wee hours of the morning.

Nice enough hotel but the noise from the highway, which is pretty much a race track every evening, was just unbearable. Even with all the windows and balcony doors fully shut. 3 star hotel at best, but noise makes it one to avoid. Unbelievably loud.

Okay for short stays. Best thing is location and parking. Breakfast could be better (e.g. bread not fresh). Also pool undergoing renovation so could not be used. One of the initial rooms smelt intensely of smoke but receptionist was incredibly helpful and arranged alternative. Given the above would still stay again as staff are as accommodating as you could hope for

Good location near the beach with plenty of parking on the street behind the property. Not so friendly from desk staff ! The fellow with the beard seemed put out when asked for assistance ! The buffet breakfast is just average quality with average choices could use some improvement! Being on the main drive it’s a bit noisy from the traffic !

We stayed for one night before going home. We booked a hotel with a pool to make our last day relaxing. The pool was turning green and very dirty. None of the guests were swimming in it and that wasn’t surprising. The rooms were clean with comfy beds, but the noise from the main road kept us awake! We ate there in the evening, the menu was minimal but the dishes we chose were tasty. Drinks are cocktails were a little on the expensive side, 14 euros for a cocktail.

Petit déjeuner tres peu de variété. Pas de feta au pays de la Grèce. Jus de fruit industriel. Les salles de bains sont vraiment inadapté, on est dans la douche pour se brosser les dents au dessus du lavabo. Lit en 140 pour un hotel 4* cest juste mais literie confortable.

We liked the location. We didn’t like the condition of the room and the pool. Tiny lifts, tiny room, tiny bathroom, tiny balcony. We had our 9 year old son and it was too small for us. Not great for families. The breakfast was not good. All the hot food was dry. The crackers were stale.

The staff was professional and well trained for their jobs. However, the bathroom was not what was promised from the pictures it was ver small and uncomfortable. They also said we would have two bed but the second bed was just a pull out chair. Overall everyone was friendly and the whole hotel was very clean. The food was very good as well like the breakfast buffet.

This does should not be rated a 4 star hotel. The room itself was clean, but the bathroom was very run down and dated. The elevators were very old. The view from the roof bar was very nice and the breakfast was surprisingly very good. They should consider fixing up the rooms, particularly the bathrooms. The acoustics in the rooms was also very bad, i was on the floor with the bar and i could hear everything that happened in the hallway.
