"We had a beautiful stay for a week, which was for our anniversary and my birthday. They made us feel very special as a start, the room was lovely, the grounds beautiful and good location close to everything. We'd definitely return if we get back there."
"We absolutely loved Samaria Hotel. The staff was friendly. The room was clean. Great choices for breakfast. The location is ideal for exploring the town and the valet service for parking the car was ideal."
"Great spot! Only one real bad thing, there was an awful sewage smell in the lobby every day. Not sure what is happening but they need to fix that. Breakfast was subpar, lots of options but I couldn’t find something that I really liked. Location was great, lots of restaurants around and not far from the main area."
"The staff were absolutely amazing, very welcoming and helpful.
The hotel is at the top of a hill and a little far out from the town, however there is a shuttle service from the hotel from early morning till late every 30 mins to take you into town.
The town offers some amazing restaurants with a view and if you don’t mind a stroll - some of the fish restaurants by the harbour were superb!
The restaurant in the hotel is lovely too for days you don’t want to venture out!
The hotel itself is...
"Great hotel and excellent beach. Overall great but not enough staff so there's a lot of waiting around especially at the bar and limited covers at the onsite restaurants."
