Beautiful Aigi Galini.
A beautiful place and only a short walk to enjoy the lovely little town. The owners/family were very helpful in pointing us to places of interest.

A Real Gem
A very welcome friendly atmosphere at the hotel. Very helpful and informative about the surrounding area. The hotel room was beautiful . Lots of room with a large balcony and lovely view. The room was updated but had retained some old world charm. The bed was large and comfortable.The town was off the main road and within easy walking distance. It was very quaint with lovely shops and restaurants. The beach was close but was slightly rocky so beach shoes are helpful.

Bait-and-switch with no refund and food poisoning
Booked the Sea View suite, but got a different room: "yeah, it was booked twice, so you got bumped". Refused to give any refund or make ANY goodwill gesture. The breakfast is pretty bad overall, and I got severe food poisoning from it (suspect the eggs, which I believe had salmonella). The showers are claustrophobic and the AC has a funky smell (but is, admittedly, very quiet). "All rooms are sound proofed" is a joke, the local youths on their mopeds running up and down the street come through just fine, especially as the bathroom window didn't close properly. There are MANY other good options here and this one is one to be avoided at all costs. This is the first time I have experienced such a difference between hotel rating (which is overall very good) and my experience.

Simple hotel at the village entrance
We stayed there for one night, our room was located on the third floor with a very nice view over the bay. The hotel is comfortable and spacious, our overall impression was ok but there are still opportunities for further enhancements. Neither advertised WiFi nor safe were available during our stay and hotel has no elevator. Good breakfast and convenient location, helpful staff.

One member of the stuff extremely rude.
One member of the staff (old man) was very rude to us couple of times. For this I would not recommend this hotel. Part of his problem was heavy drinking.

Wonderful hosts and a lovely port and beach.
Wonderful hosts looked after us so well. Nothing was too much trouble. Lovely room at the front of the hotel looking out to sea. Parking was easy and it's a 5 minute walk to the beach or the port/town. Incredibly pretty town with loads of tavernas. Beach also lovely with sun beds and tavernas- just buy a drink. We only stayed one night and wished we'd stayed longer. It's an older hotel but it's very clean and we had a wonderfully comfortable bed- not hard like so many. It was very windy but the beach and town were very sheltered. Safe swimming for children.

Excellente literie petit déjeuner très varié grande amabilité et disponibilité du manager La photo ci-jointe laisse supposer que les clients peuvent bénéficier du solarium mais aucun accès à celui ci n 'est signalé dans l'hôtel.. Il s'agit visiblement d'une suite au sein de cet établissement. D'autre part, dans la description des services, il y avait une piscine mais où est elle ?

Accueil sympathique et exceptionnel par la gérante de l’établissement qui devance toutes vos questions et fournit naturellement les informations utiles pour profiter au mieux du séjour. Petit déjeuner copieux avec un buffet d'excellente qualité servit dans une salle très agréable. Les chambres ne sont pas modernes mais très propres, disposant de tous les éléments de confort et bien entretenues. La localité n'a pas d'intérêt particulier mais est une bonne base pour les visites.

Uitstekend hotel in Agia Galini
Zeer proper hotel, enorm vriendelijke jonge uitbaters. Zeer behulpzaam(kwamen ons opikken aan het busstation). Enorm gavarieerd ontbijtbuffet dat zeer goed opgevolgd werd. Kamers worden goed onderhouden en zijn goed en van alle gemakken voorzien : airco, koelkast, TV voor wie dat nodig heeft, kluisje, balkon.

Hotel con detalles cuidados y comodo
Es un hotel pequeño que los dueños tienen muy bien cuidado. Nuestra estancia allí ha sido muy agradable. Nikos y Pavlos, los dos chicos quw llevan la recepcion, son muy amables y simpaticos y siempre estan dispuestos a ayudarte y a explicarte sobre lo que necesites. El desayuno es muy bueno, con productos caseros que van cambiando cada dia. La cama es comodisima. Nuestra habitacion era un bajo con un pequeño porche en el que cenabamos cada noche muy a gusto. En definitiva, es un hotel muy comodo, sin lujos, llevado por una familia que te hace la estancia allí muy agradable. Volveríamos sin dudarlo.

Une bonne adresse à Agia Galini
Pour une seule nuit, nous avons réservé une chambre au rez de chaussée pour ne pas avoir à trimbaler nos bagages sans ascenseur. Nous n'avons donc aucune vue, mais nous le savions au moment de réserver. La photo de la page d'accueil peut être trompeuse pour certains, car il s'agit de la terrasse de la suite du dernier étage. Le panneau de l'hôtel Astoria est placé un peu bas et si une voiture est garée devant, on ne le voit plus (il faudrait qu'il soit placé un peu plus haut). Nous sommes passés devant sans le voir. Il faut aussi savoir que l'hôtel est situé à l'entrée d'Agia Galini, sur les hauteurs, et qu'il faut donc emprunter beaucoup d'escaliers assez raides pour arriver sur le port, et autant à remonter pour rentrer ! À part cela, l'accueil de Kate est chaleureux, la chambre est propre, bien agencée et confortable. La wi-fi fonctionne parfaitement. Et le petit déjeuner est excellent (avec des produits maison).

Agia Galini, mai più.
Al momento dell'arrivo è stato comunicato che non c'era una camera disponibile per noi. Ci è stata offerta una sistemazione alternativa, che non abbiamo potuto accettare dopo averla visionata. A questo punto ci è stata offerta una sistemazione in un Apparthotel. Abbiamo accettato perchè ormai tardi. Non siamo soliti scegliere una sistemazione in Apparthotel. Non sono chiare le politiche di rimborso. Avrei preferito essere rimborsato e scegliermi una sistemazione in autonomia, piuttosto che essere costretto ad accettare qualcosa che non avrei mai prenotato.

Frokostbuffeen var meget bra og vi savnet ingen ting, kun sterk kaffe, men det fikk vi selvfølgelig servert ved bordet :) Vi hadde 3 fantastisk fine uker og vil på det sterkeste anbefale dette hotellet til våre venner og familie, samt alle andre.
