Categories

Cleanliness
9.5
Multiple guests explicitly praised cleanliness (e.g., 'squeaky clean', 'Cleanness' noted), indicating excellent housekeeping throughout the property.
Service
9.5
Service is repeatedly described as attentive and very friendly (staff and manager went above and beyond, easy communication), supporting a top score for service.
Location
9
Excellent mountain location with incredible views and about 15 minutes to Delphi; some guests noted it is not within easy walking distance of the town, which moderates the score slightly.
Room Quality
9.5
Rooms are frequently described as spacious, very comfortable and well-appointed (junior suite highlighted, large bathrooms, balcony views), justifying a high rating.
Amenities
8.5
Spa, pool, sauna and steam room are praised and considered strong points, but a few comments mention cold pool water or some tired-looking facilities, reducing the score modestly.
Value for Money
8
Generally high quality but several guests mentioned higher prices for bar/restaurant and limited food selection in places, leading to a below-target value score.
Food and Beverage
9.5
Breakfast receives consistent praise (variety and quality), and room service was described as exceptional; one or two mentions of limited selection are outweighed by positive reports.
Overall Experience
8.5
Overall stays are described as memorable, relaxing and often 'perfect' with many recommendations; minor negatives (distance to town, some pricing/facility notes) temper a perfect overall score.

Absolut empfehlenswert
Pros:

Das ganze Ambiente und der Empfang sind super, alles sehr stilvoll, der Spa Bereich ist 👍🏼 top.
Die Aussicht der Zimmer auf den Parnassos ebenfalls. das Personal ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit in allem.

Cons:

Leider ließ sich wohl nachts nicht die Außenbeleuchtung an den Wänden timen, sodass man im Zimmer Flutlicht hatte, wenn man die Balkontür geöffnet hielt, das Frühstück ist fabelhaft, jedoch wäre bei der Teeauswahl nachzubessern, da einfache Teebeutel nicht zum Niveau des Hotels passen

The hotel and staff far surpassed our expectations. The view was breathtaking. Our room was designed with every detail to perfection. Iordanis, the hotel manager and his team were extremely helpful to make our stay as enjoyable and comfortable as possible.

As a booking client, this has to be one of my TOP STAYS worldwide.

We have absolutely nothing negative words to say.
