Amazing Trip to Greece

Greece | May 17 - Jun 6, 2025

Hotel is in a great location. One block from Hadrian's Arch. Five minute walk to Platka and easy access to anywhere. Buffet breakfast was excellent. Our room had a mini kitchen which made is so convenient to cook or put together some food if we wanted to.

Senia hotel was in a great location. Easy to walk to the heart of Naoussa. Beach was just down the hill from the hotel. The main pool area overlooking the ocean was great. Wonderful views from our room and breakfast area. Breakfast buffet was fantastic. So nice to sit on the pool deck and eat breakfast with a great water view.

Galaxy Hotel was our least favorite hotel during our trip to Greece. Rooms and bathrooms were extremely small but that is typical for Greece and most of Europe. The hotel has been renovated but they could have done a better job. The hotel shared a common pool and breakfast area with a newer hotel wing. We would have preferred to stay in the newer building. We had a lower floor (pool level) room and on the last morning a floor drain in the hallway overflowed and water came into our room. Things happen so we didn't make to much of a deal about it. Luckily we were leaving that morning and had everything packed. We only stayed two nights, we were comfortable but we would have preferred to stay somewhere else.

The hotel is top notch. Unfortunately it is a forty-five minute drive from Heracklion, the heart of Crete. The hotel buffet breakfast by the pool deck was beautiful with a full view of the ocean. The rooms are well designed and very comfortable. Since most of our excursions were to the east we would have preferred to stay on the east side of the island before going to our second destination of Chania on the farwest side of the island. Since the hotel is centrally located you need a car to go anywhere. We took a taxi down the hill to the seaside village for dinner two times. The hotel overall is a beautiful design, quiet and very relaxing. If you are use to going out at night to shop or just walk around like we did on the islands of Naxos and Paros, this location is not for you. There is nothing around but other hotels and houses.

Beautiful hotel and located within a five minute walk of Old Town. Our large balcony overlooked the beautiful clear ocean. Even got to feel a small earthquake while sitting on the balcony. We stayed in one of the two executive suites (#602) which had great views of Old Town to the north and the ocean to the west. The staff was fantastic. They breakfast buffet was exceptional. The hotel offers a beach bag with towels for your use for the beach. The manager George was so helpful with anything we needed. The roof top pool deck was so wonderful. Again, great views, bar for your drinks and a bite to eat if you want any food. One of the best hotels during our stay in Greece.

This place was amazing. Our host explained that history behind our apartment style accommodations. At one time it was a cave and in the late 1980's renovations took place and the front living room and second floor bedroom and roof deck were added. The apartment had a full kitchen and two bathrooms. The views from both the lower and upper roof decks were amazing. Full view of the Caldera. Our location was in the middle of the village of Imerovigli which was quite and relaxing. Most of the tourist venture to Fira to the east and Oia to the west. This location was in between so it was quiet and not the throngs of tourist walking by. Our host cooked us breakfast every morning based on our likes. The food was fantastic. The location was an easy fifteen minute walk to Fira and other points of interest. A number of grocery stores and restaurants were less than a five minute walk away. Great accommodations, access and service. It was our best stay while in Greece.

Mixed feelings on our stay at Ivis 4. Our room was wonderful and the location was easy walking distance to the Psyri area, market place and other locations of interest. The pictures in the marketing brochures show a roof deck with great views of the Acropolis. When we opened the curtains to our second floor room, our balcony view was of a two story abandoned building that was falling apart. When I inquired about our room location and asked about the views of the Acropolis I was told that room is a large suite on the top floor. The first night we arrived we were going to bed and there was loud music from the adjacent restaurants around the corner. I called down to the desk to inquire about when the noise would subside. I was told "around 2:00 am, because it was from the local bars". The desk person asked me if I wanted ear plugs. That was not a good sign. The second night was not as bad. Maybe our first night was just one of those nights. The breakfast was by menu only, not buffet like most hotels. The food was very good though. The hotel lobby and bar area is very comfortable and the front desk staff was very helpful with questions. To sum up our stay, I would say if you want a quiet place to sleep, this isn't the best location. The hotel was very nice, clean and in a good location, just not what we expected.
