We booked this hotel via Tui and it is definitely not worth the price you pay. It is not a 4* whatsoever. It is incredibly dated and is in need of renovation. The only positive of this hotel is the pool area and the scenic views. Other than that, the staff are rude and not helpful, the rooms are dated, they have a kettle but no tea or coffee, no lifts in the hotel!!!! The breakfast and is very poor and below average - if you travel around Greece, you would expect a good quality breakfast and dinner, but here unfortunately it is not. The food is tasteless, has flies all over it and limited variety. Finally, the hotel is located in a very high up area, so that to walk up there is extremely difficult and has very steep steps which is not ideal for anyone with accessibility needs. On top of that, then walking up to your room is a mission as there are no lifts!!! The shuttle that the hotel offers runs at unusual times so we tended to get the local bus more often. The bus stop is outside the hotel which was helpful, but the hotel itself is isolated - the beach opposite is lovely but is a long walk to get to. Please think before booking this hotel!!!!

The best part of this hotel is the pool area with its fantastic views. Unfortunately, other than that this hotel isn’t great. The rooms are very dated and in need of refurbishment, the staff where not very pleasant (apart from the cleaning staff which where friendly), the hallways are lit with fluorescent pink and green lights which make the hotel seem cheap, the breakfast was basic and of poor quality, and the prices that the hotel charges for drinks Is extortionate, 5 euros for a small slightly cold mythos!!! There was a kettle in our room but no tea or coffee making facilities, not even a cup. We have stayed in many different hotels on different Greek islands including 2 and 3 star hotels which have all been much better.

This is the oldest resort-style hotel in Skiathos and unfortunately the price you pay doesn’t really match the quality you get.
1/ the rooms need major renovations. The mattresses are sagging, you don’t have plugs on both sides of the bed and toilets are leaking. Even the hairdryer belongs to the ‘80s..
2/ The breakfast is low quality. Food is stale, dry and tasteless. Also you can’t even get a decent coffee without paying €5 at the hotel bar.
3/ Personnel is rude and unhelpful. Just to give an example, if you want to park the car in front of the hotel, a designated person tells which parking spot you should take. Every time they pick the toughest spot and when you ask to put it in an easier one , they say no laughing at your face.
4/ beach towels are rarely available - we had to go back 2/3 times every day to find some.
Lastly, this is a resort for families so if you are looking for a quiet place to relax wouldn’t stay here. Of course this doesn’t drive at all my negative review but wished we knew it in advance.

Amazing views! We had a sea view room which was amazing with private balcony with sunbeds but our room was pretty basic. Can’t fault the cleaning staff, great and quick!
Pool bar staff were great, friendly with all our encounters (especially when I missed a step and badly twisted my ankle)
Great little outside play area for our 18 month old and all staff were so friendly and welcoming with her.
The pool for me was fine, nice and cold considering how hot it is! It does go from 1 meter to 4 meters pretty quick. Plenty of sunbeds and chairs.
Our main reason for the 3 stars are due to the flys, we couldn’t enjoy the breakfast or dinner due to being constantly attacked not to mention how many would be on the pastry’s, edge of the hot food trays and one day several on the mini Frankfurt’s. After that me and my partner were very picky about what to have.
I will say having the pool bar food was great and fly free which was just bizarre with it only being a few feet away!
They finish serving breakfast at 10 then dinner isn’t served until 7pm probably not an issue for some but with a young child it can be.
There are steps everywhere and some being very steep so if mobility is an issue I wouldn’t recommend this hotel.

The staff at this hotel were incredibly welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. The rooms were immaculate and very comfortable. We also enjoyed the delicious breakfast each morning and loved the convenient location close to major attractions and the Skiathos centre!
