Staff was excellent, especially the cleaning lady on the seventh floor. The pool was also fine, though it is more than 2 meters deep. The pool-water was probably 27-28 C. If the management consider umbrellas around the sun lounges, this will be great.

A nice hotel on a busy road

It’s a nice, if slightly dated hotel, centrally located but on a busy stretch of road so not quite the picturesque Athenian resort, however it is more than fine for business travel, just be aware there are no irons in the rooms.

Lovely hotel with great rooftop pool area. We used the hotel for 1 night after our flight had been deferred for 24 hours. Excellent breakfast and good sized rooms. Reception staff were really helpful. Only down side is limited dining options in the area in the evening but you could take a taxin to the busier parts of the city.

Nice family stay

Nice family stay at Zafolia Hotel. The family room we stayed in was essentially 2 connected rooms so we had lots of space, 2 bathrooms and a balcony - which was great. The pool on the rooftop was also lovely (albeit the water was a bit cold.) The staff were very nice and helpful. The hotel is a bit dated though and the location is about 35-40 minute walk from the city center so we ended up taking lots of taxi rides (about 5-7 EUR to get to or back from the city center)
