Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a great stay with spacious rooms designed in two levels, including a cozy sitting area, bedroom, and large bathroom. The service is top-notch, with extremely friendly and helpful staff. The location provides a close-to-nature experience, ideal for exploring the cultural triangle. The dining options, while not international, include a busy ala carte restaurant. The facilities are well-maintained, enhancing the overall experience.
The hotel is a lovely gem next to Kandalama Lake with outstanding service and beautiful rooms. The dining experience had its lows, but overall, it's a great place to stay for a memorable getaway.
The hotel offers individual villas surrounded by nature with modern amenities, but falls short of 4-star standards. The rooms are basic but adequate, though a bit dark during the day without lights. The service is attentive and caring, perfect for those looking for helpful care from the staff. The location is ideal for nature lovers near Kandalama Lake and close to Sigyria. Dining is delightful with a wide range of dishes, though slightly pricey. Overall, a good choice for a peaceful stay in a natural setting.
The hotel offers spacious and comfortable rooms, but the presence of ants was a little bothersome. The service provided by the hospitable staff goes above and beyond, ensuring a memorable stay. The location, with a beautiful ambiance and lovely surroundings, is a highlight. The dining experience caters well to various tastes, though the space can feel crowded at times.
