Categories

Cleanliness
8.8
Rooms are generally described as clean and comfortable, though some maintenance issues were reported (loose toilet seat not fixed).
Service
9.2
Front-line staff repeatedly praised as friendly, helpful and attentive; however, serious management/booking failures (overbooking, poor handling of group bookings) and occasional lack of follow-up on maintenance lowered this slightly.
Location
9.4
Multiple reviewers called the location wonderful — seafront/promenade, tram and bus stops steps away, close to restaurants and grocery stores; excellent for sightseeing.
Room Quality
7.8
Mixed comments: beds were comfortable and rooms clean, but bathrooms are often small, pillows were uncomfortable for some, and the building feels dated with a tiny elevator.
Amenities
8
Limited amenities noted — a large hot tub mentioned but otherwise a classic small quirky European hotel with few standout facilities.
Value for Money
8.4
Many found it good value (convenient for pre-cruise stays, nice location), though noise at night and the risk of overbooking for groups reduce perceived value for some guests.
Food and Beverage
8.2
Breakfast opinions are mixed: some reviewers enjoyed a good breakfast while others described it as merely okay or unremarkable.
Overall Experience
9
Overall positive experience driven by excellent location and very helpful staff, but marred for some by management/overbooking incidents and occasional maintenance shortcomings; suitable for couples/singles, caution advised for group bookings.

What makes this stay is the people. The staff are delightful and we are appreciative of their care.
Pros:

The staff was very helpful and went out of their way to be accommodating and assist us as tourists finding the area. The view was also lovely.

Cons:

The building is outdated, tiny elevator, and not a really accessible building. Beds could stand to be replaced and the breakfast wasn’t anything to write home about.

Stressful
Cons:

I was part of the group of 10 that booked 5 en-suite rooms 12 months in advance. While my partner and I were lucky enough to actually get one of the 3 rooms the hotel managed to hold, the hotel's shocking overbooking completely ruined our stay.
Even though our individual room was fine, I cannot recommend a hotel with such terrible management. Booking a year ahead should mean security. The logistics of the group being split up caused an enormous amount of unnecessary stress. Do not book here if you are planning a trip with family or friends.

Overbooked when we arrived
Cons:

Our group of 10 booked 5 en-suite rooms a full 12 months in advance so we could all stay together. When we arrived, the hotel revealed they had overbooked and shorted our group by two rooms. My partner and I were one of the couples forced to stay off-site.
Instead of the private en-suite room we paid for, we were in a 2-bedroom apartment a 9-minute walk away from the main hotel, which we had to share with another couple. Having four adults sharing a single bathroom completely ruined our privacy and the convenience of our trip.
We were completely separated from the rest of our party and missed out on the group experience we spent a year planning. This hotel has terrible management and absolute disregard for confirmed bookings. If you are travelling with a group, do not risk staying here.

Pros:

The location was wonderful right along the sea with a long Promenade. The bus stop was steps from the front door of the hotel to take you up into the main part of town the staff was exceptionally kind and helpful.

Cons:

It's a classic small quirky European Hotel. Some Americans May not like that we think it's Charming.

Fabulous stay at this hotel
Pros:

We absolutely loved this hotel. The room was clean and very comfortable, especially the bed. Breakfast was very good and the staff were amazing, they were so helpful and really nice people. Would definitely stay there again as it was in a good location for sight seeing and right opposite a tram stop.

Cons:

I did not find the pillows on the bed very comfortable.

Pros:

Just about everything related to our stay was fine. We had a couple of issues that did not get addressed.

Cons:

The toilet seat in our room was loose. We reported it ti the main destination, it was not addressed. The seat came off the toilet, again reported, again not addressed.

Phenomenal location
Pros:

The view from our room was phenomenal. The staff were excellent especially John. The location was perfect. Close to restaurants and a grocery store.

Cons:

The bathroom was a tad small. The huge hot tub would be good for newlyweds but needful for us seasoned people.

Wonderful value and a very nice stay
Pros:

The staff was so amazing and helpful. The location was just perfect for a one night stay pre-cruise.

Cons:

It is very loud at night (not the hotels fault)...but if you need quiet to sleep, this would be a tough location to get 40 winks

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay with Scorpios, first time to Greece and it was the perfect first two nights to relax and unw
Pros:

The sea view from our room was beautiful, the staff were friendly and helpful, breakfast was generous and delicious, walking distance to restaurants. We walked to the tram to the Athens riviera and to the port. Room was a bit dated but still really nice and comfortable. Hotel kindly helped arrange our airport pickup.
