Grecia: hotel con bar nella provincia di Egeo Meridionale

Unfortunately, our stay at Argo Boutique Hotel was quite disappointing, especially considering that it is advertised as a 4-star hotel. There were some positive aspects: the bed was comfortable, the breakfast had a reasonable variety of options, and we appreciated the two complimentary bottles of water provided on the first day. However, several issues significantly affected our stay. The bathroom sink was blocked, which is not something we would expect from a 4-star hotel. Our room had a balcony directly facing the hotel and the street. Because of the lack of privacy and the high level of exposure, keeping the windows open was uncomfortable for most of the time we were in the room. In my opinion, this type of room should only be allocated when there are no other rooms available. This was not our situation, as we had booked several months in advance and it did not appear to be one of the last rooms available. The soundproofing was also very poor. We could hear a lot of noise from the neighbouring rooms and the corridors, including conversations and, particularly, doors constantly slamming. When guests in the rooms next to us closed their doors, the noise was loud enough to wake us up. This was especially frustrating during the night and early in the morning, and significantly affected the quality of our sleep. The internet was another significant issue. There was essentially no Wi-Fi connection in the room and, unfortunately, even using mobile data was not a viable alternative, as 5G/mobile coverage was also extremely poor inside the room. The Wi-Fi was also frequently unavailable in the breakfast area. For a hotel of this category, this was particularly disappointing. The payment process was also not quite what we expected. When making the reservation, we selected “Pay at the property” and intended to pay the full amount in cash at check-in. However, we were first required to pay 50% in advance, and the hotel subsequently continued attempting to charge the remaining balance to the card before our arrival. We eventually paid the outstanding amount in cash upon arrival, as originally intended. Had I not blocked the card from being charged, the payment would have gone through. This was frustrating, particularly given that the reservation had been made with the “Pay at the property” option. The breakfast was varied enough in terms of choice, but the quality was rather average and the selection did not change much from day to day. For example, the fruit was the same every day, which becomes quite limiting when staying for several days. The breakfast area is also very small and not particularly well organised for the number of guests, making it feel crowded at busy times. We only used the pool once, as it is in a shaded area by the end of the day. We did not use the spa, as this requires an additional payment. Overall, although there were some positives, I don’t feel that our experience reflected the standard I would expect from a 4-star hotel — at least not in the room we were given. Considering the price, the fact that we had booked several months in advance, and the hotel’s category, we expected considerably more.

We recently stayed at this hotel and unfortunately left with a very bad impression due to the main receptionist's service . When we arrived, we waited for a while without receiving any greeting or acknowledgment from this receptionist, who was busy selling tours to other guests. After us, two more guests arrived. Still, there was no greeting from the front desk—the only person who showed any kindness was a quiet staff member who noticed I was thirsty and offered water to everyone. Soon after, another customer came in asking to hire a car, saying he didn't want to jump the queue. Instead of attending to us first, the receptionist immediately prioritized his car rental request. When it was finally our turn, the same receptionist gave us our key. The room was right by the front entrance with no views at all. However, as I went back to reception, I heard her telling two newly arrived guests, ”You will be able to see the sunrise from your room.” I asked if we could also have a room with a view. She was visibly reluctant and pointed out that she had given us a slightly bigger room, but eventually swapped our key. The new room had a much better perspective toward the pool, a distant blue-domed church, and sea views in the distance. On a positive note, the housekeeping staff was great throughout our stay, providing good housekeeping service and keeping everything very clean. The worst incident happened at breakfast. Santorini mornings are very cold and windy. The same receptionist ordered the same quiet staff member to open the large sliding door completely, letting in a freezing gust of wind. The quiet helper softly mentioned in Greek that guests were cold, but the receptionist refused and insisted on keeping it open. When my husband tried to push the door slightly closed to block the draft, the receptionist immediately snapped at him in a voice so loud and clear that all the other guests could hear, telling him, ”Don't close it.” However, 5 minutes later, she returned with the quiet helper to close it halfway—showing she knew all along that keeping it wide open was uncomfortable. Shortly after, another male receptionist spoke to the helper, and she closed the door almost completely, leaving only a tiny gap. I made sure to thank the quiet, considerate helper after breakfast for her kindness despite the situation. A hotel in hospitality should never treat guests with such rudeness and arrogance, and this woman should not be serving guests at the front desk. The location is also slightly farther from the town center than expected. Due to the poor service at reception, I would not recommend staying here.

Excellent service, stunning views, very pretty hotel, highly recommended! The most handsome manager contacted us before our arrival to arrange a pick-up service. When we landed at the airport, George the driver was already waiting for us with a name sign — so convenient and stress-free. He drove us to the nearest drop-off point near McDonald's, and from there, handsome manager and Edward the porter was already there waiting for us. it was just a 5-minute walk to the hotel. Edward helped carry our luggage from the roadside all the way to the room, and did the same when we checked out. Such thoughtful service! During check in, handsome manager was incredibly attentive and thoughtful, taking the time to explain the nearby attractions and facilities in detail. It was clear that he genuinely cares about his guests. Our room was on the higher floor of the building, offering exceptional privacy. The space was absolutely beautiful — a two-level unit with a breathtaking view of the caldera and the volcano island. The hot tub was a highlight. The water was wonderfully warm, and since March was a bit chilly, soaking in the tub became the most relaxing part of each day. We spent hours in there, enjoying the panoramic volcano view — absolutely perfect. The unit itself was spacious and well-equipped with everything we needed. The toiletries — shampoo, body lotion, and so on — were from a lovely brand with such a rich, elegant fragrance. As soon as we walked into the room, we were greeted by that beautiful scent. It felt fresh, special, and incredibly romantic. Breakfast was served with a sheet where you could tick your choices, and you could select different items each day — a lovely touch. The breakfast itself was generous and delicious. The hotel is run by a small, dedicated team. The same gentleman Mr Edward who helped carry our luggage also took care of breakfast, room maintenance,, and more. Everyone we met was always smiling, warm, and genuinely welcoming. Their hospitality made our stay truly special — honestly one of the very best experiences I've ever had. As for the stairs — yes, there are some steps to reach the hotel, but this is Santorini. If you're expecting a flat walk everywhere, this probably isn't the right island for you. In the context of Santorini, the stairs here are absolutely nothing to worry about. The location is actually very convenient — you can walk along the cliffside path or head down to the old port, and take the cable car back up, which is fun and easy. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Santorini.

Abbiamo prenotato l'hotel considerando la posizione e la piscina, ma al nostro arrivo ci hanno comunicato che la piscina era chiusa da oltre un anno! Penso che questa informazione dovrebbe essere fornita al momento della prenotazione, perché fa la differenza.

In generale, un soggiorno decente, ma certamente non una vera 5-star esperienza. L'hotel inizia a mostrare la sua età, e le camere e le aree comuni potrebbero utilizzare una qualche rinovazione. Il cibo era ripetuto e non molto buono, con poca varietà da un giorno all'altro. Il personale e la posizione erano buoni, ma per un prezzo 5-star ho aspettato un livello più alto. Lo consiglierei per un soggiorno rilassato, ma non se ti aspetta un lusso.

Recentemente ho avuto il piacere di rimanere al 10GR Boutique Hotel & Wine Bar, e devo dire che è stata una grande esperienza da parte di iniziare a finire. Il servizio in questo hotel era di prima qualità; il personale si è alzato e si è allontanato per assicurarmi un soggiorno confortevole e piacevole; non solo erano professionali, ma anche incredibilmente amichevoli e attenti; il loro caldo e l’ospitalità mi hanno davvero fatto sentire benvenuto. Le strutture dell'hotel erano anche eccellenti. La camera che ho soggiornato era deliziosamente decorata, pulita e ben mantenuta. Apprezzo l'attenzione per i dettagli in ogni aspetto della progettazione della camera. Le aree comuni dell'hotel erano anche bellissime e avevano un ambiente affascinante. Ora parliamo del cibo – è stato un evidenziamento della mia permanenza. Il colazione offerto al 10GR Boutique Hotel & Wine Bar è stato semplicemente eccezionale. La varietà di opzioni e la qualità dei piatti supera le mie aspettative. Ogni mattina, mi aspettavo di iniziare il mio giorno con la deliziosa diffusione che avevano fornito, e si è reso evidente che hanno fatto un sforzo per creare una deliziosa esperienza di colazione per i loro ospiti. In sintesi, la mia esperienza al 10GR Boutique Hotel & Wine Bar è stata fantastica. Il servizio era impeccabile, le strutture erano impressionanti, e il cibo era un vero trattamento. Raccomando a chiunque cercasse un soggiorno memorabile e piacevole nella zona. È una vera gioiello, e non posso aspettare di tornare per un'altra visita.

Ho soggiornato per due notti. La prima notte, a dire il vero, non è stata granché, perché il letto era in soggiorno, proprio accanto al bagno, e sentivo tutte le conversazioni nelle stanze vicine, e il rumore mi svegliava ogni volta che qualcuno andava in bagno di notte. Però la posizione era buona e comoda.

Abbiamo appena tornato da un veramente perfetto 9-night soggiorno a Katikies Santorini e già auspichiamo che fossimo tornati. Da inizio a finitura, tutto era innocente. Sofia e tutta la squadra erano assolutamente brillanti – veramente caldi, attenti, senza mai essere sovraccaricati, e sempre andando il miglio extra per rendere il nostro soggiorno speciale. L'hotel è intimamente tenuto, e le viste sono semplicemente incredibili – uno di quei luoghi che vive davvero fino alle foto (se non supera). La colazione era assolutamente sorprendente - uno dei migliori! Abbiamo anche trovato che la maggior parte degli ospiti tendono a rimanere solo una o due notti e a muoversi molto rapidamente. Dopo aver trascorso nove notti qui, avrei sinceramente raccomandato di rimanere almeno una settimana, se non più, per prendere tutto bene. It’s one of those places that is not meant to be hurhed – the pace, the views, the atmosphere all deserve a little more time. Essere tra i pochi ospiti che rimangono più a lungo ci ha davvero consentito di apprezzarlo completamente, e ha fatto sentire tutta l'esperienza che molto più speciale. È raro trovare dove si trovano tutti i dettagli giusti, ma Katikies lo fa davvero. Ci siamo sentiti completamente attenta in tutto e non esitate a raccomandarlo. Un posto molto speciale – sicuramente torneremo.

Uno dei migliori hotel in cui abbia mai soggiornato! La posizione è mozzafiato e il servizio è attento e gentile, dalla reception alla cena. È un hotel caratteristico e piccolo (ma di lusso), dove ci si può rilassare senza il caos! Non si gode di una vista sul tramonto delle cupole. L'unico piccolo vantaggio sarebbe stato se l'hotel avesse fornito una navetta oraria tra Fira e Oia (l'hotel si trova tra le due località), dato che l'autobus fa solo una corsa, il che significa che bisogna andare prima a Oia, poi a Fira e infine prendere un altro autobus per raggiungere l'hotel da Fira (4 euro per due autobus o 20 euro a corsa). Il servizio è stato eccezionale, dalla reception alla cena, un plauso speciale alla nostra receptionist, la signora il cui nome iniziava con la F..., e a Eleini a pranzo. La colazione inclusa è eccellente, anche se ci sono pochi tavoli con vista sull'oceano e all'ombra; il servizio e il cibo compensano ampiamente! Ci hanno fatto un upgrade a una suite e al check-in abbiamo ricevuto una bottiglia di rosé e acqua, e cioccolata e altra acqua al momento del servizio di couverture.

We regularly visit Rhodes and usually stay at Mitsis Resorts, but this time we decided to try something different and booked the Aulus. Overall, the staff were pleasant and friendly throughout our stay, and the drinks/cocktails were very nice. The pizza restaurant was definitely the highlight food-wise, although service there felt quite disorganised at times. Unfortunately, the main buffet food was disappointing and nowhere near the standard we expected. Most dishes were cold, overcooked, and very dry. Booking the à la carte restaurants was also frustrating, as many seemed fully booked before we had even arrived at the hotel. Another downside was the lack of sunbeds around the pool area, which made it difficult to relax unless you were up very early. There also didn’t seem to be enough staff around during busy times. Overall, I’d rate the hotel around 6/10. It wasn’t a terrible stay, but compared to other resorts we’ve experienced in Rhodes, I don’t think we would return again.
