Ariadni Palace is located in the middle of the beautiful village Koutouloufari which hosts amazing restaurants and taverns. It’s a family-owned and operated business. Service was overall very friendly exceeding expectations during lunch and dinner timeframes but admittedly not as stellar during the afternoon. Travelers should understand Ariadni rents short term apartments not hotel rooms. So be sure to either bring all your toiletries or be ready to purchase at one of the nearby markets; there’s one located next door to Ariadni. Kindly note room taxes were an additional 1.5 Euros and use of the AC is an additional 10 Euros per night. Even with the added charges room rates are rather low. The pool is small and more for wading with limited area for sunbathing. However, I greatly enjoyed sipping on a sangria, garnished with a smoked cinnamon stick, while seated at the bar next to the pool.
There was no cleaning of the rooms! We had to complain, and only after four days did someone finally come to empty the trash, change towels, and clean. We even had to buy toilet paper ourselves.
The pool area is filthy. The cleaning lady just sprays dirty water around with a garden hose – and it all goes straight into the pool! It might look cleaner when wet, but once it dries, it’s muddy with footprints everywhere. Guests had to use the pool net themselves to fish out dead insects and flowers. No one ever cleaned the pool properly.
We asked to keep our room for a few extra hours due to a late flight. They wanted €40 for 4 hours – ridiculous. We decided to use the downstairs shower instead, but it was absolutely disgusting. Dead flies everywhere, no lock on the door, and totally unhygienic. The toilet next to it was just as bad – filthy, full of flies, no light, and no lock.
Do not stay at this hotel. Being cheap doesn’t make up for how awful it is!

Jammer van al de beestjes in ons appartement en ik zag op de foto’s dat de andere kamers een mooiere en grotere douchecabine hadden

Struttura datata, pulizia non ottimale e stanza caldissima. Aria condizionata disponibile a pagamento ma che non avrei comunque utilizzato perché visibilmente senza manutenzione e pulizia.
Struttura posizionata in una bella zona, tranquilla e con bei locali. Comodo il parcheggio.

Fijne familie accommodatie erg vriendelijk en behulpzaam allemaal.... kamer netjes schoon dit komt ook omdat ze een zeer goede en vriendelijke schoonmaakster hebben genaamd Katharina
We had a lovely stay here. Only problem we had was when the air conditioning went off and we were told we had to pay for it even though it had been on for 3 days since we arrived and on their website it says air conditioning FREE. The restaurant was lovely the pool was quiet and the housekeeping was useful.

Basic apartment in the centre of Koutouloufari
Low price so high value for money.
But everything is there.
Not much space around the swimming pool.
Warm water to shower or wash your hands is very rarely available.

You get what you pay for
We had a studio apartment. It was very dated and small but was very cheap. It wasn't particularly clean either, particularly in the bathroom area. The pool area is not really functional. During the afternoon there is only a small amount of the pool area that gets the sun, and when I say small, I mean approx 3 sunbeds. There is just not enough space out there for the number of apartments. You get what you pay for. The daily rate is very cheap.
I had a lovely stay in this hotel. The staff are lovely and helpful. The guests were mainly Dutch but I was told there would be more English next year. The room was very small and the bathroom was also compact. I had the lovely pool to myself most days but if it is busy I don't know if there would be enough room for all the sun lounges. The village is really nice with plenty of tavernas and a few artisan shops. The big drawback is the walk to and from the beach and Hersonisis which is a good 20 minutes down a steep hill, so coming back up is a bit of a chore. A taxi is 7E, apparently the minimum charge. The restaurant in the hotel is really good and has a wood fired oven for fresh pizza.
