We stayed for one week in this outstanding hotel on our third visit to Kassiopi (first stay in this hotel). This is by far the best place to stay in Kassiopi, so much so that we’ve booked again for next year. We were dropped off outside, despite being told that we would need to get a shuttle from a main drop off point. Maria on reception was waiting for us on arrival, welcomed us into the hotel, and checked us in very quickly. A member of staff from the hotel took the luggage to the room whilst we checked in and then escorted us to the room. We stayed in a suite which was a great size, with balcony facing the small side road leading to the back of the hotel. The room was clean, well equipped with everything you need for a stay. Free safe, slippers, fridge, bathrobes and more. The breakfast was brilliant. Plenty to choose from including cereals, breads, cold meats and cheese and a full hot selection. The breakfast area was bright and airy, and you could eat outside if you would like. As it is a small hotel, it was never busy at breakfast which was so relaxing. The staff on duty were so pleasant, attentive and constantly cleaning and topping up the breakfast. The pool area is small, with about 10 sun loungers and 3 huge parasols. Plenty of tables and chairs too. At this time of year, we always managed to get sun loungers each day. The pool was small and cold but it was perfect for the size of the hotel. There were little buttons on the tables that you could press if you would like to order drinks or snacks from the menu which, for a hotel, were good value. The hotel does have a full bar but nobody ever seemed to use it which is a bit of a shame as it could be a good feature of the hotel. We had one issue with the WiFi not connecting, but Maria on reception sorted this out. Nothing was ever a problem for her. The hotel is in a perfect location. 5 minutes walk to the harbour one way, 2 minutes to the main square the other way. There are lots of shops, tavernas, bars all around the hotel. Our favourites were Thraka Grill, Sousouro, Levanda, Virginias at the harbour, and Kalypso for drinks. On leaving the hotel, we were given a small gift which is a nice touch. The hotel minivan also took us to the coach transfer pick up point which was a great service. First class hotel and we can’t wait to go back next year!
