“Awful Hotel - doesnt even deserve a 1rating and is noway a 4*”

Eliros Beach Hotel

6/7 found this review helpful

DO NOT GO HERE if you want to have a good holiday. This is my honest review and would not like anyone else to make the same expensive mistake that we did.

Just returned from one week at the Eliros and it was absolutely awful. Before we went there was not a review on tripadvisor so we did not know what to expect. As the other traveller said it is 99.9 % German and basically like a German holiday camp. Noone even smiles at you let alone say hello. The environment i think is pretty hostile and if you want to be stared at and get filthy by germans all day then thats fine.

The barman gets slowly drunk every single evening and then plays dangerous games with alcohol and a lighter. He almost set someone alight at one point when he pored alcohol all over the floor and set light to it.

The whole place smells of sewarage and dont use the toilets they stink! On our first day we didnt get the room we had booked and ended up in a noisy room for the first evening.

The hotels part of the beach is again very crowded and again you will get stared at by germans all day as if you shouldnt be there.

The hotel staff who are greek, speek to everyone in German even to the English and they are actually friendly to the Germans, however dont expect to get as much as a smile if you are English.

We ended up booking into another hotel along the beach for two days. This hotel "The Pilot" was fantasic and very friendly and just perfect in every way. However they only had a room for two nights so we had to return to the Eliros.

Worst holiday I have ever had and I am in the process of puting in a formal complaint.

-doesnt even deserve a 1rating and is noway a 4*

ive never written a bad review about a hotel and will make this as possitive as possible.
the hotel is at best ok! and i now realise why i couldnt find a review on it before we went, its 99% german and the food obviousley caters for the german tastes (lotsa sausages)
i go to greece to try greek food, and didnt see much of it at this hotel, if you dont eat the sausages, the next day you get sausage rolls.
its well outside of georgioupoli 3 or 4miles and not easily walkable
hmmm dont want to be mr miserable but, i wont be using this hotel again again!
way over priced for the standard of food and location.
the first words we heard when booking in were "the sunbeds on the beach are 2 euros a day!!!!" we dont use the beach so imiterial to us but a smile and "welcome to the hotel "would have been nice.
i supose this hotel would be ok if you wanted to spend all day, every day on their beach and pool area, but go elsewhere for dinner.

crete in general was fantastic, stayed at a couple of other hotels which were superb
