Pros:

The room was clean and towels and linen changed every other day. The staff were amazing and helpful. We didn’t use the pool area as was up and out every morning. All in all it was a lovely hotel and everwhere for us was within walking distance. Having the supermarket next door was a plus, couple of minutes walk to the beachfront, cafes and bars.

Pros:

Gutes Preisleistungsverhältnis, unserem Wunsch, ein Zimmer in höherer Lage wurde entsprochen. Das Hotel ist schon älter, die Lage etwas zugebaut, aber die Zimmer neu renoviert und sauber. Ausstattung Küche dürfte etwas besser sein, aber man kommt zurecht. Uns hat es insgesamt für das was wir bezahlt haben, sehr gut gefallen. Wir hatten Selbsverpflegung, ein größerer Supermarkt ist gleich gegenüber.

Pros:

Veldig lite rom, balkong rett ved en travel gate. Godt utvalg til frokost. Litt forskjellig små feil på rommet. Hadde tenkt å få byttet rom da det var litt lite, å bråk fra gaten. Men vi klarte to netter

Charmikas hotelli
Pros:

Mukava charmikas hotelli. Erittäin ystävällinen henkilökunta. Oikein mukava monipuolinen aamupala. Katumelu ei kuulunut sisälle (tuplaovet parvekkeille). Bussipysäkki aivan hotellin oven edessä ja liput sai ostaa respasta. Lähellä rantaa ja ravintoloita ym

Pros:

Todella lyhyt matka rantakadulle ja rantaan. Rantakadulla paljon ravintoloita ja kauppoja.
Osa rannoista ravintoloiden vetämänä eli tuolit ja varjot veloituksetta, jos ostaa jotain ruokaa tai juomaa. Hotelli kävelymatkan päässä vanhasta kaupungista. Sijainti hyvä. Huone oli moderni, siisti ja puhdas, oikein kiva. Hotellin yleiset tilat myös. Aamiainen oli minusta runsas ja hyvä. Hotelli oli mielestäni perheenomainen majoitus. Uima-allas on pieni, mutta kiva lapsia ajatellen. Saavuin hotelliin yöllä vastaanoton ollessa suljettuna, sain erinomaiset yksityiskohtaiset ohjeet saapumiseen.

Amazing place to stay
Pros:

Stayed here whilst attending a family wedding at Agreco Farm recently. What a find!

The apartment (210) was spacious, clean, tidy and well equipped, the air conditioning was incredibly efficient too. The sheets were changed every day and the towels every other day. A light, airy apartment with a balcony overlooking the pool. The pool was well maintained and had plenty of loungers, chairs and tables available at all times.

The reception staff handed us a large bottle of water on arrival to take to our room, a very welcome treat after a day's travel in the heat. There's a good supermarket adjacent to the hotel and the hotel is located one street behind the seafront, meaning it's in a quieter environment than on the strip where all the bars and restaurants are located.

The thing that stands out most at the Eltina hotel is the staff. It has a great family feel, and you know you're in a good place when the Greeks check in to the hotel on holiday too. All staff were friendly, welcoming and extremely helpful. We booked on a bed and breakfast basis and the breakfasts were fantastic with an incredible selection to choose from.

I'd highly recommend this hotel and would definitely stay there again.

Pros:

Supermarket is literally a few feet away across the street. Bus to town is handy you don’t have to drive and search for parking for hours. The girl at the front desk who checked us in is super amazing very welcoming and kind.
The hotel only has 3 parking spots but you can locate spots on the street.
They do give you a large bottle of water. We did stay a second night and the second room balcony was useless as it was in a tiny courtyard with dead plants on it. Across other balconies. So opt for a room with view however it was a cheap option for one extra night.
