Selana Suites

My friend and I came to sifnos for a much needed girls get away. The staff at selana welcomed us with open arms and much kindness. Throughout our entire stay they made sure everything was perfect. They paid such great attention to detail and cleanliness, tidying our rooms immediately every morning when we went down to breakfast so that it would be ready for when we finished. The views from the hotel were stunning! And the pool was the perfect refreshing temperature. l am looking forward to going back at another point with my family. Thanks you selana!

This place is amazing! The staff is so lovely and helpful, the rooms are very spacious, the breakfast is delicious, and the pool is stunning. I would highly recommend this place for your visit to Sifnos. We will be back!

Visiting Sifnos mid-Oct, we were looking for a charm, boutique style, family-owned hotel with a stunning view and Selana was without a doubt the perfect place to stay on the island. We looked around at other hotels when visiting the island, and no doubt Selana stands above any other. We worked with SUNtrail to get a car on our late arrival (ferry was 2h late) and they were kind enough to wait for us. Overall thank you Irini and all the staff for your warm welcome. Extra comment: Oct being the end of the season, we were nearly alone in the hotel so we could enjoy the wonderful breakfast with the sunrise by the pool and enjoy the facilities.

Highly recommend this charming family hotel. The owner are super friendly. The view is amazing and the rooms very comfortable. The hotel is only 5 minutes walk from the beach where you can find nice restaurants.

Firstly I will say that this hotel has incredible views and a nice pool. You can spend hours admiring the view. It’s pretty quiet so has a relaxing and tranquil feel. The property and rooms were clean throughout. Staff were fine and the breakfast was satisfactory. Having said that, we were quite disappointed with our stay. As context, we booked and prepaid many months in advance at a rate of €270 per night in mid September. The reviews of the property are very strong and it bills itself as 4 stars. We travel to different islands in Greece every year and generally stay in 4-5 star hotels. While the views here certainly are 5 star, everything else is 3 star at most. At this price point I expect high standards. What we got was a basic room which had the feel of a budget chain hotel and lacked privacy. While the room size and air conditioning were fine, that’s where the positives end. Critically, the bed was the most uncomfortable bed I’ve slept on in years - rock hard with springs sticking into your back. We woke up sore every day and consequently felt tired the entire stay. Walls were thin so you also hear your neighbours talking. Apart from the pool, the hotel has no facilities. You absolutely need a car to stay as there are no good restaurants within walking distance, and no shops or other amenities. At any hotel (even a budget one) in Greece you’re generally treated to a bottle of water on arrival. That wasn’t the case at Selana. There are no shops around within walking distance so if you’re thirsty be prepared to buy water from them immediately. I don’t really care about the price so much as the message it sends - pay a high price for your room, but they can’t even gift you 1 bottle of water that costs them almost nothing. Even weirder considering how hospitable Greek hotels generally are, this just feel stingy. Do you want Wi-Fi? You can almost forget about it. This is the worst hotel Wi-Fi I’ve had in over a decade and reminds me of the dial up speeds of 1997 internet. Attempting to watch a 10 second Instagram story takes several minutes with buffering, and loading Google maps the same. We asked whether something was wrong with the internet and were told it was just like that on the island. Funnily enough we tried the Wi-Fi at a restaurant at the beach 1km away and speeds were what you’d get in any large city in the world, so clearly the island does have normal internet service (as do 4 nearby island we also visited). Thank goodness I didn’t have to attend to any work commitments during my stay - I’d be in serious trouble if I was asked to attend a zoom call as there’s no way this would be possible. This is unacceptable in this day and age. In summary - not a terrible hotel, and the views are magnificent. We just felt the price/quality ratio was very poor and it really made out entire stay in Sifnos rather disappointing.

Superbe Hôtel avec vue imprenable sur la mer Egée. Situation idéale pour visiter l’île de Siphnos (max 25 minutes de tout les points de l’île). Piscine à débordement et plages à proximité (5 minutes à pieds). Chambre cosy très confortable et très bien équipée. Terrasse privative et intimiste. Petit déjeuner typique et copieux. Personnel attentionné.
