“This is a greatly positioned hotel, ideal for those keen on exploring both Argostoli and Lassi. I find the updated bar and breakfast area notably appealing, contrasting with the rooms which, while clean, are more basic. Breakfast here is varied and abundant, a definite plus.”

Solid Stay Near the Lighthouse

clean pool plentiful breakfast sea view

I appreciated the pool. It was clean and had plenty of sunbeds. The breakfast was plentiful, especially for the price. The location is quite convenient. It is near the lighthouse and offers sea views. I found friendly staff always willing to help with any request.

The air conditioning in my room was quite noisy, made sleeping a little difficult. I believe that a room upgrade could be beneficial, to give the hotel a modern edge, with some new furniture.
