Karystion Hotel

We have loved the Karystion hotel for many years largely because of the lovely staff and the wonderful breakfasts. However there has been a change of ownership and though many of the long term staff are still there something has been lost in the change to a buffet breakfast. Breakfast used to be a wonderfully orchestrated affair with lots of changes. One thing the breakfast never had was the delicious Greek bread served elsewhere but the other dishes made up for that and the rolls were warm ( pre baked). Now the buffet is very limited with good scrambled eggs but dreadful rolls and awful sausage rolls. The delightful staff look lost and unhappy and there needs to be a real rethink of breakfast. Good Greek loaves to cut would be a start. The location and the staff are still charming.

The hotel lobby, ground floor veranda, grounds and beachfront are gorgeous! We watched a lovely sunset over the mountains. The vast fast covered porch has comfortable seating overlooking the bay . Breakfast was delicious. They have a complimentary breakfast of cheese & spinach pie, yogurt, kiwi, honey, meat and cheese, rolls, fresh orange juice, hot cocoa, coffee. But you can also order a variety of omelettes for an additional cost. Our room was on the first floor with a lovely view of the sea. Clean and comfortable, small clean bathroom, but I didn't come to hang out in my room. Good Central location. Lovely staff. Would definitely stay here again.

We spent 7 nights at the hotel as part of an Adagio Walking Holiday. It was B&B with 3 evening meals taken within the hotel. There's no dressing it up, the rooms are basic, for us a hard bed and bathroom on the small side. That's all the negatives out of the way. The positives far exceed the negatives. Outstanding staff from the room maids through to the hotel manager, the lovely breakfast girls who brought a tray of surprises everyday, to the day bar staff, even the the chef and kitchen staff came out and had a friendly chat. the evening bar man was a bit hit or miss depending what mood he was in. As many have said having breakfast on the outside veranda whilst enjoying sea views was something to get out of bed for. Most rooms have lovely views of the sea. It's only a 5 minute walk into the centre and to the nearest supermarket. The hotel helpfully supplies a room fridge for your own drinks. One of our group had life threatening allergies and the hotel manager and all the the staff were outstanding in how they dealt with his needs

Very clean hotel. It is in a great location overlooking the beach - best spot in town! Above all, there are very friendly and helpful staff. We slept really well and were very comfortable for our whole stay (over a week). Breakfasts were great!! Dina, Anastasia and Merita are particularly brilliant!! We had a wonderful time.

Not luxurious, though decent, very clean, friendly employees. Well situated (next to the beach, walking distance to the center, rather quiet in the evening). Good tips by the reception regarding the city.

Παλιό ξενοδοχείο της δεκαετίας του 70 με πολύ κακή ηχομόνωση,κακοσυντρημενα έπιπλα, μικρά μπάνια, προβληματικό αιρκοντίσιον. Κρίμα γιατί η θέση του είναι πολύ καλή δίπλα σε ταβέρνες, καφετέριες και τη νυκτερινή ζωή της πόλης. Δεν συστήνεται.
