Crithoni's Paradise Hotel

Comfortable but very very dated. It appeared to be stuck in the 70's//80's. The whole place needs a revamp. The foyer area had loads of sofas and chairs. But again very dated. The shops were all closed every day with the exception of the spa. The top corridor stank very badly of cat urine. The grouting and steps in the pool were covered in black mould and despite being assured it would be cleaned up by the next morning. 5 days later it was still there. There was rust all around the plug hole in the bath, but this didn't make much difference as there was no plug. One out of three lights in the bathroom worked. Sink plug didn't work. Shower curtain smelled awful. Chair in the room was all stained. The worst internet we have ever come across anywhere in Greece. Mostly non existent

Biggest hotel on the island but needs some tlc and updating. Has a 1980s feel. The bed was super hard, like sleeping on a worktop until we were given a mattress topper which made it a bit softer. Breakfast was good, with vegetarian options. Didn't have any other meals at the hotel. The pool side bar was friendly with good options and snack food to order. The pool side itself was filthy. There was an old used plaster on the side of the pool for at least 4 days and we never saw anyone sweeping around the sunbeds or washing the floor so inevitably the floor was very dirty. The grounds were lovely and the gardener did a good job. On checking out the reception staff, including the manager wanted to charge us twice for the bar bill. It was their mistake but they would not admit it and just by us checking our bank account we could see the payment had been made moments before making it again. The Manager was pretty rude about it and unprofessional, which was a shame as the experience with other staff was good and this gave us a bad feeling on the last evening. Overall good value for money and a general good experience apart from dealing with a particular receptionist and the reception Manager.

not 4 star as listed more like 3. That said pleasant hotel,very clean,wait staff very polite and efficient,good selection of food at meal times.A bit dangerous to walk along the road to small port.just two small quirks with this hotel, no tea making facilities in rooms and no coffee or drinks in dining room after dinner,you had to right across the pool area ti pool bar, collect drinks and go to lounge
