"I am a solo female traveller from the UK visiting a poorly friend in the nearby hospital. I hired a car - 14 minute drive and I was there. 4 minute drive to the hospital. Couldn't find a fault, everything was perfect and the view from my balcony was stunning. I will definitely be back, but under better circumstances next time."

"Το ξενοδοχείο ειναι καινούριο. Ολα μεσα στην είσοδο ηταν ομορφα. Η ρεσεψιόν πολυ φιλική και εξυπηρετική. Το μπουφες στο πρωινο δεν ηταν πολυ μεγαλος αλλα ειχε ολα τα απαραίτητα. Δεν μπορω να πω πως δεν ήμουν ικανοποιημένος. Το δωματιο ηταν ανετο και ωραιο. Το αρνητικό ηταν πως το μπανιο ηταν λιγο παραμελιμενο . Ενας τοιχος ηταν λιγο σπασμένος, με αποτελέσματα να εβλεπες το κενο που ειχε μεσα. Και επίσης η κουρτινα που ειναι η μπανιερα ειχε λιγο μουχλα κατω - κατω απο τα νερα. Σε γενικες γραμμές...

"Man braucht knapp 30min bis zur Festung ist aber dennoch in der Nähe des Zentrums, was sich über eine längere Straße mit Cafés und Restaurants erstreckt. Die Straße ist etwas ruhiger. Für uns hat die Lokation und die Ausstattung der Unterkunft sehr gut gepasst.
Man kommt mit 2 Tür Codes ins Haus und dann ins Zimmer."

"The room is roomy and clean. The hotel has several private parking spaces, however street parking is available too. The staff was helpful in resolving a door code issue over the phone. Although the hotel is slightly further away from the acropolis, but it is manageable by walking. Definitely it would not be an issue if you have a car as free public parking is available just outside of the castle walls. What we like most about its location is that a nice supermarket is only 750 meters away."

"We spent three nights at Aristi Mountain Resort at the end of a 10-day trip to Greece, and it exceeded our expectations. The photos and reviews do not do it justice. The resort has about 26 rooms spread across several stone buildings on the mountainside above the charming village of Aristi.
Our Superior Double Room felt like a private cottage, with its own entrance, spacious bedroom and sitting area, large bathroom with jacuzzi tub, and outdoor seating. Thick stone walls and shutters kept the room naturally cool, so air conditioning was rarely needed.
Breakfast was excellent, served indoors or on a terrace with spectacular mountain views. We also enjoyed dinner one evening. The food and service were excellent, though prices were higher than in the village. A more casual daytime menu would be welcome for snacks.
The pool was rarely crowded, but shade was limited. The same was true of the restaurant terrace, where a larger roof would improve comfort. Opening the dining room to the outdoors creates a lovely atmosphere but also attracts flies.
The poolside lounge, terrace, and bar are underused. Offering drink menus, light snacks, and more shade would make these spaces more inviting.
Overall, the resort has a relaxed, luxurious atmosphere that we thoroughly enjoyed. The indoor pool beside the spa offers a quieter alternative, though direct access to the adjoining terrace would make it even better."
"My partner and I stayed here for three nights in late June, between visits to Corfu and Zagori, and were very happy with our choice.
Built in 1998, the hotel has the feel of a classic mountain resort. While some reviews describe it as “dated,” that really only applied to our room. The rest of the property felt traditionally styled, well maintained, and very inviting.
Our room was spacious, with a balcony overlooking the lake. The bathroom is due for an update, particularly the tub and half-wall shower, which left the floor wet after every use.
The breakfast buffet was excellent, with a bright dining room and a wide selection of hot and cold items.
We were initially concerned that the hotel’s conference centre might make it feel like a business hotel, but that wasn’t the case at all. The large pool area, with plenty of loungers, umbrellas, a bar, and beautifully maintained landscaping, was a highlight of our stay. Although the pool was busy when we arrived on Sunday, the staff did an outstanding job ensuring guests could find available loungers by promptly removing abandoned towels.
The hotel is about a 12 to 15-minute walk from the restaurants and bars in the city centre, making it close enough for convenience while remaining peaceful. We’d happily stay here again."
"we are Asia group come form North American, the hotel stuff very friend, hotel owner /Manager and lady name is Helen and Anthi, they are so friendly and helpful, super breakfast. I will recommend this hotel"
"The only issue is the parking on the narrow streets. There is parking, but if you have a large car/suv you may get stuck. You are within the castle, which is awesome. I parked the Suv, outside the castle and walked 5 mins. Very easy and much easier to navigate. Hotel was very very nice."
"Lovely staff and quality breakfast... Olives lovely and great coffee
I arrived late for work reasons and they were very helpful to use a delivery service to deliver to the hotel.
Balcony had 2 chairs but no table. There was a pull cord plug pulled out of socket in bathroom to repair and easily fixed. Well done. Easy 10 minute walk to IOA airport so will definitely use again

"So ive stay here before in September 2025. Overall a beautiful hotel and in general the staff are polite. The chambermaids and maintenance man were especially nice and friendly. Sunday morning breakfast there was one rude woman serving the cook as you want part. However its a good base for what I needed during my stay. If I returned I would stay again"
