+: Upon arrival we were provided a room upgrade which was nice. Bed comfortable. Good AC in room and large bathroom with lots of amenities provided. Hotel provided a complimentary bottle of wine and two greek treats which was nice. WiFi in room is good. Breakfast OK but some of the food looked like it was cooked the night before then reheated and was pretty soggy. Good range of cakes. Breakfast Juice not great.
-: Views are non existent. Hotel located at the back of Skiathos town in a horrible location opposite a smelly fish market shop which is on a noisy road with lots of cars and motorbikes. As soon as we arrived we thought about leaving and booking a room elsewhere!Room 120 faces onto an average garden that is poorly maintained but better than facing onto pool which would be noisy from patrons of restaurant and bar. Can also hear road traffic from room. Terrible location far away from action of town and needing to take dodgy streets to get to and from town. Safe in room is tiny and you need to ask reception for a key. Curtains aren't blackout and barely covers the window extent so light comes in early. Room contains lots of furniture so hard to find places to open up two large suitcases. Inadequate number of sunbeds by pool for size of hotel so can't really use pool. Staff do an adequate job but don't go out of their way to provide personalised service or take an interest in guests. No gym provided which is standard for a supposedly 5 star hotel. This is definitely not a 5 star hotel (as advertised), with it being closer to 3.5 stars in my opinion.
