My wife and I have just returned from a weeks ½ board stay at this hotel.
The hotel is advertised as being 4 star, but by UK standards ranks as a 3 star. It is in excellent condition. Its also worth mentioning,
that a new block has been constructed on the opposite side of the car par. This block though pristine, is in my opinion soulless, whereas the older hotel has design charm.
Food is a buffet style breakfast & dinner, which is eaten in the new blocks dinning room. Alas the lack of charm of the dinning room (it reminded us of a works canteen) does not encourage you to linger over
meals. The food was plentiful with an excellent choice of salads, a good soup, two or three choices of main courses, plus a choice of sweets. I found the main courses rather institutional but others may not agree. It was better to get to dinner early so that the sweets were not pulled about too much by the other diners.
If I found I did not like the main course I would have a salad, then eat later at one of the many excellent tavernas down by the shore
The old hotels pool is good, with a pool bar and plenty of tables and chairs. The new blocks main pool is on the roof, though why anyone would chose to swim up there is beyond me.
The hotel rooms are bit on the small side, though the do have large size beds in them. The big down side is in the lack of hanging space for clothes and the ventilation on the bathroom /toilet. The toilet has a high level window that opens onto the corridor; so all passers by tend to know what you are doing.
Their was complete lack of entertainment during the week we were there, but noticed that a Greek night was scheduled for the following
week. Thus said, the big plus of this hotel is its charming staff and
the close proximity to a superb sandy safe beach, which gently shelves out to sea.
We found both the hotel and the resort excellent for couples with or without young children, but feel that as a resort Almyrida has little
to offer young singles.
We happily recommend the hotel to all others and would stay at it again.
