Hôtel calme et sympa. Le personnel du buffet est super et la nourriture très bien. Un merci tout spécial à Dimitris et Fabio qui ont vraiment été efficaces et attentionnés. Seul bémol, la musique grecque à tous les repas et beaucoup trop forte.

Beautiful relaxing hotel

Stayed for a week, in a beautiful location, town was quiet however expected this time of year. Lovely sandy beach nearby. All staff were friendly and helpful, rooms modern and cleaned regularly. Really enjoyed both breakfast & evening meals. Hotel maybe just a little too quiet for us but otherwise perfect

Good stay for agile folks

Breakfast was great, beds were great, balcony and check in. But, there are many steps, not that great for older people. Some steps were marked, but not everywhere, not consistent. Not safe in dark if you are not familiar. Different safety standards. Hard to get to by car, and not much parking is available. Friendly and helpfull staff.

Lovely, quiet hotel for a relaxing break with lovely views. The massage at hotel spa was an absolute bliss! Beach at hotel is pebbles but it did not bother us. Sun lounges with unbrella is for rent We had breakfast only option with a couple nice restaurants to eat. Walking distance to Agios town. Would definatly recommend.

We had a wonderful stay at the Ariadne Beach Hotel. Everything was perfect from start to finish. The staff were friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. Our room was clean and well equipped with terrific views of Mirabello Bay. We were half-board and the food was fantastic and the waiting staff just lovely. The beautiful Gargadoros beach is only a short stroll away on which we spent many happy days. We will definitely be returning!

Great location for Agios Nikolaos

We stayed at the Ariadne for 5 nights on a B & B basis and in a superior double room. The room was clean and functional with good wardrobe and luggage space (often missing nowadays). There are two pools at the hotel, one where the entertainments team are based and this is all in French as almost all residents come from France. other reviews mentioned this was a bit loud and frenetic and it can be but there is also a lower pool which is more quiet and, although the beds get taken by around 10am, suited us better. There is on-site parking, appreciated as we had a hire car. The buffet for breakfast was fairly basic but enough choice to find something to eat. Masks and gloves were worn inside the restaurant collecting food, not seated. There is also a small beach in front of the hotel where you can swim, very few chairs there and we never established if these were paid or free. The water was clear enough to snorkel but note beach shoes are an advantage as its a pebble beach. About 10 minutes walk takes you to a larger sandy beach with more chairs and some watersports. We didn't eat in the hotel but there's a nice cafe bar 'Votsalo' by the beach with lovely views, a nice popular family tavern 'Gargadoros' right at the entrance to the hotel and another next to this 'Meltemi' which has cheap draft beer and a good menu, again friendly. 10-15 minutes walk takes you to the marina area and then the lake in Agios where there are many highly rated restaurants

Das Hotel kann ich wirklich empfehlen. Wir kamen sehr spät an und man hat uns Essen vom Buffet aufgehoben und einen Tisch gedeckt. Das Essen war richtig gut und für jeden Geschmack etwas dabei. Das Personal war sehr nett und engagiert. Das Areal war weitläufig aber es war alles ganz einfach zu erreichen. Zu Fuß kommt man in ca. 10 min in die Stadt mit verschiedenen Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und vielen Restaurants, Bars und Touristen Angeboten. Ein wunderschöner Ort an dem wir wieder Urlaub machen würden.

The barman at the pool bar was rude and impolite and had rude comments while serving something like a bottled water, which was included in the package. I asked for more coffee and he refused. Other than that everyone is very friendly and very good. Thanos and Clevis at the beach bar were very friendly. Made great drinks. The a la carte restaurant had great service and food. The buffet got a bit boring afterwards. I recommend taking ultra all inclusive. Worth the extra amount
