Nafsika Hotel

We were particularly impressed with the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff without in anyway being simultaneously intrusive or in any way obtrusive in relation to our stay in the hotel. The location of the hotel is excellent for exploring both the town and old town as well as the rest of the island. Also one has easy access to nearby restaurants which are only a brief walk away. There is a receptionist 24 hours a day on duty always ready and willing to help with any queries or requests for other help. For example, even though there is no safe in the actual room we were given a key to a drawer next to the reception where a Kindle and a mini iPad were locked securely. Also, after checking out from our room space was provided for our luggage and even a safer place for valuable items as well as clean public toilets while waiting for a taxi to the airport. The hotel is basically managed and run by a small and genuinely gentle and friendly family while certain of the clients seem to have been there before. Yiannis in particular and his wife are at the reception most of the day and night. There is also a nice bar with very reasonable prices where one can have a drink either while waiting for others to get ready or after returning to the hotel.

The sense of a certain lack of space to move around in, such as in the toilet and shower. However, this did not detract in a serious way with our actual stay since the hotel room for us was merely a base or in other words a place in which to take a break and a rest from our exploring of the town and the island so as to take a shower or sleep at night. To be fair most hotels in this category are not renowned for their spaciousness.

Great location, very central with buses going around the island frequently, right by the beach, so our balcony view was amazing, though the water on this side of the island is a bit rough, but plenty of beaches to visit on the other side of the island for swimming, if you prefer calmer waters. Our room was sparkling clean and it was cleaned every day and the breakfast was great, especially the fresh bread.

Only criticism was that there was no shower curtain and I felt bad letting the water flow on the bathroom floor.

Perfect location, just few steps to the beach and 10min to the old town centre. Nice small breakfast, tasty scrambled eggs, fresh Greece tomatoes with feta cheese :)

Beds were quite small.

Newly renovated hotel. Fantastic location. Well worth the money. But the real gem here is the staff. Superfriendly and helpful and always with a smile. Very happy and pleased with my stay, no complaints.

Upgrade from single to double room as one available - without request. + no extra charge. Warm milk at breakfast to make coffee, style bathroom, comfort bed, balcony view.

Happy with all aspects.
