“ The accommodation was good and there was a wonderful view of the Bay of Mirabello from our balcony. The staff were very friendly and helpful. There was a good selection for breakfast but the supposed hot food was lukewarm. The evening meals were very disappointing, the food was cold or lukewarm at best and the quality of the meat was poor. We have stayed at this hotel a number of times in the past (last time about 3 years ago) and the evening meals were enjoyable, so something has gone wrong. Cost cutting, perhaps? We definitely won’t be returning.

“
all in all a great place, AI was quite good but got a little boring, plenty of fresh salads, fish and meat dishes. October meant the hotel was quite quiet which was good for us. Everything very clean, pools are good, and no problem being served at the bar, very few Brits. We had stunning views of sea and mountains from our suite ( hardly but comfy ).
Not very suitable for less mobile as there are lots of steps to the main area.
Agios is only a 10/15 min walk, 11 euros for 2 orange juices in the cafe/bar area but had a good Giros and club sandwich with drinks for 15 eurus close to the marina.
Everything very expensive now 23% tax !!

“ Would not recommend this hotel - although we were booked fully inclusive this was not the case, to get the whole FI you had to pay extra at reception to join the yellow band club? Majority of bar and dining room staff were surly and unhelpful - a smile was too much to ask for and in several cases acknowledgement of our greeting was ignored. Meals on the whole were poor, served luke warm not hot and on a couple of occasions the fried eggs were flat cold including the turreens they sat in! Arrangements in the dining room were chaotic with long queues due to very small serving area and tables not cleared fast enough to cater for incoming diners. The courtesy room at the end of our holiday was disgusting, no facilities for hanging clothes, no ventilation, no windows, poor lighting and the floor was filthy - it was like walking into a dirty little closet. Position of our room 319 was very poor, on car park level so that all traffic in and out looked straight through our window - bus drivers virtually on our balcony!
“ Top Tip: Nothing local, bit isolated - shops/pubs/restaurants approx 15 minute walk into town. Local pebbly beach only big enough for approx 20 people and not really suitable for sunbathing - best beaches 15 minutes left or right from hotel. On the good side the hotel has two beautiful swimming pools although cleanliness was not a priority.

“
Hotel is located just 5 mins stroll from edge agios nikolaos, a beautiful town, and 15 mins to it's centre. Hotel is built into a hill, so not great for those with walking difficulties, but location is stunning. Views across the bay are amazing. 2 beaches veery close, one pebble and one sand, with clear warm sea. Hotel pools are great, food is satisfactory. We stayed in garden view room which was basic but perfectly fine, but trhe luxury rooms with private pools were great. Pianist each evening was very good singer, but no other real entertainment unless travelling with Italian Pianetta club.
Overall loved the location, the pools, the hotel, Aggy Nic, just needs more entrtainment.
“ Top Tip: Book with Travel Republic, saved over £1000 on others in the hotel. Go all inclusive. Perfect for a relaxing holiday, although trip to Spinalonga well worth it>

“
I found this Hotel to be excellent. The staff were friendly/respectful and very helpful. The food was good, but at times could have been hotter. The food choice was extensive and being a 'fussy' eater' found that I could choose a good meal everyday.
Our room had a fantasic view of the sea and was cleaned everyday 'spotless'. The hotel pool's are very clean with fantasic views of the sea. The beach in easy walking distance and is a nice quiet beach.
The hotel is only a 10 minute walk into the town and around twenty minutes from the port, lots of shopping. We took two trips while there, one to Spinalonga and one to Knossos ,both great days out.
I do not think the hotel would not be ideal for disabled it has a very steep road to the entrance, I have family who use wheelchairs and I know we would have struggled.
“ Top Tip: We loved walking right into the town and sitting by the lake. We ate in the hotel however we had snacks out and found the food to be good.
