Pelekanos: Strandvakanties

Mooi hotel met vriendelijk personeel op zeer goede lokatie,stadje en strand op 5min.wandelen.Voor ons was het ontbijt wat minder,start pas om 7h30 wat laat is als je uitstap hebt gepland,alles wordt op voorhand gemaakt en opgewarmd zoals eitjes.Er is ook niet veel variatie,was voor ons een minpunt.

De kamer was heel klein en onhandig om er overal heen te lopen. Geen balkon aanwezig. Er is geen isolatie dus veel lawaai s’nachts van die mensen er boven. Ik ben met een kakkerlak s’nachts tegen gelopen.

Hulp bij vervoer van bagage vanaf de parkeergarage was erg prettig. Een prima ontbijt met veel lokale specialiteiten. De kamer aan de kleine kant, maar een goed bed. Douchekraan is lastig te bedienen.

The staff were extremely dedicated and attentive throughout our stay. The room is spacious and comfortable, and breakfast was excellent. The hotel sits right next to a pleasant seafront lined with restaurants, and it's within walking distance of the Venetian Harbour. Parking is easy too. Recommended.

The staff are lovely, the Greek culture is lovely. What lets this hotel down are the some operational issues and unnecessary gimmicks in the rooms. It struck me as technology for its own sake rather than being useful for guests. Great if you want to spend 5 minutes every night working out how to turn off lights, from the 5 different technology clusters in the room, some of which are touchscreens and others are hieroglyphic buttons. None are actual switches. Personally I don’t understand the design decision to put a sauna and plunge pool in the rooms. Apart from the safety implications of getting a surprise wet leg navigating across the balcony, the space could have been so much better used for storage or relaxation. Room service is smiling but inconsistent, again ruled by buttons. You are just as likely to get no fresh towels or triple fresh towels. Breakfast service is inconsistent too, waiting times after placing an order can be excessive and take 3 reminders. I saw guests give up and leave. I loved that all soft drinks are free in the room. That is very welcome. Location is perfect, quiet, and only 10 mins walk to busy areas. I chose Hilton brand because I know the standard is high. This new build hotel meets expectations in quality and facilities but has a few operational issues to iron out.
