Amphitryon Hotel

We very nearly didn't stay here because of the poor reviews. Our experience was excellent. Beautifully positioned, with outstanding views from the balconies and within a few minutes of lovely cafes, restaurants and the town square. Our bedroom was huge with spa bath, seperate toilet and shower and double wash basin. Bed very comfortable and the balcony with those amazing views! Breakfast was plentiful and all staff very helpful and friendly. Our room was on the 1st floor so had the potential to be noisy with adjacent road, but we heard nothing. Also, the balcony y here was very sheltered should there be winds. Yes there are a lot if switches to manage lighting/ curtains but you soon get used to these. I have already recommended this hotel to others - and we only left a couple of days ago!

Fantastic location with a beautiful view. Nice staff, very helpful. Good value for money. Premises a bit run down. Weird atmosphere as off season.

The staff and service was excellent. The view from the room was beautiful. The breakfast was satisfactory. The staff were very, very helpful and friendly.

This hotel has seen better days. The view is spectacular but, as others have noted, the parking is almost impossible and the Wi-Fi leaves a lot to be desired. The breakfast is ok - nothing spectacular. One’s sense is that it has suffered from changing fashions and the financial crisis and it needs a lot on investment. However the staff are very helpful. It’s important to note that you can use the pool at the companion hotel up the hill - just ask for directions to the elevator in a tunnel in the rock. We had an excellent meal there.

Hotel location is great, fantastic views of the sea from all rooms. Booke an executive room and family room for the 3 teenager kids. Family room was good with 2 rooms, a double and a single bed. The Good was Location and Views and some of the Staff were very polite but not helpful in sharing info. Hotel is dated, rooms and furniture even worse. Bubbling walls in public areas, strange smell in the corridors. Balcony furniture pretty uncomfortable, we saw that other rooms beside has extra pillows on wooden bench, seems not enough for all executive rooms though, we were not the lucky ones. Breakfast was poor, staff was polite but offered extra things only once one had finished his breakfast !!! Definitely inadequate breakfast for 350 euro/night. While arrived and needed to park and drop off luggage, person in front door did not offer any help although told we were going to check in. Ater making rounds and eventually found place to park in the street, when at the lobby he told us that we can go park to the other hotel on top of the hill... thanks for not offering the info earlier and send us to look for a place to park in the street!!! Definitely no value for money. Old glories now gone, seems only prices are high at the hotel.

We arrived to the hotel and noticed that the pool is located in a different hotel which is from the same chain. As my son was before knee surgery and had difficulties to walk and a pool is necessary in this heat, we could change without extra charge to the Naflia Palace Hotel & Villas. It was amazing. The view, the relaxing atmosphere, the service was outstanding! There is a problem with the Wifi and part of the hotel is closed and there is no gym, but we were happy and satisfied.

First the room was comfortable, the view was stunning, and the staff were helpful - my sympathies to the two ladies serving breakfast one morning when all the members of two tour parties turned up at the same time. Now the downsides. There is no information, and I'm not just talking about no tourist information, though there is none in either the lobby or your room. In the lobby you will find no signs directing you where various rooms are, or the toilets, though there is one sign saying the restaurant (for breakfast) is upstairs - you just have to search it out. There is nothing in your room telling you what time breakfast is served, or how to work the curtains or the air conditioning, or even how to leave in case of fire - I thought this last was a legal requirement. There is apparently a swimming pool, I don't know where, because again there is no information. In the section below on hotel amenities I have clicked not sure on everything. The wifi is intermittent at best. The bathroom door is very heavy and slides, but has no handle, don't push it too far back, you will never get it out again, especially if you have weak wrists.

We booked an executive suite for more than 300€/ night and the room is so miserable and with lack of many things for this price. The woods and surface at the balcony was destroyed. No deep freeze at the mini fridge. Very poor experience, especially for this amount of money!
