Quality overnight stay before setting off for the Cyclades.
Pros:

Ideal location if you are taking the boat to the islands in the morning. The free regular shuttle service from the airport is a huge bonus. The quality of the breakfast and the restaurant makes you want to stay longer.

A convenient hotel to stay near the airport

It was near the airport and that was why we chose this hotel.

Prima hotel.

Prima kamers (zelfs een upgrade), heerlijk gegeten in het restaurant.

Cons:

Er was geen waterkoker op de kamer.

Great value for money
Pros:

The hotel was a good fit for us [family of 4]. We stayed for one night. it's located very close to Rafina Port, where you can grab a bite to eat, play a bit near the Aegean Sea and see ferries coming in and out. The room was spacious, breakfast was complimentary. Shower is also decent.

Cons:

The experience was good overall, adding small but important caveats - 1. The hotel is close to the sea, so mosquitos were there at night. Make sure you have ointments or anti-mosquito cream. 2. The elevators are extremely small, which surprised me because Greece usually has large elevators. It was very Paris-like, which is unusual for Greece. 3. Breakfast was ok-ish. Nothing fancy.

Great option if you have a ferry the following day
Pros:

Shuttle pick up from the airport is great, the location relative to the port is spot on. There is a restaurant down stairs which is very handy for a late arrival. Bed was really comfortable.
