Great location, clean and nice staff.

Great location, clean, family run hotel. Thoughtful details such as blankets, not common in smaller hotels we've stayed at in Greece. Room had a refrigerator, hot plate, electric tea kettle and kitchen ware. Restaurant right next door and a market next to that. Walking distance to evening dining as well. We would stay here again.

Great Option!

The location is excellent. The beach is literally right across the street (chairs/umbrellas/toilet/showers). The family who run this small hotel are wonderfully nice and always available if you need anything. The bed was a bit firm, but nothing terrible for a couple nights rest and the room was very clean. The restaurant next door is also family owned and they have great food options if you want something close and quick. Overall, you cannot beat the location for the price in my opinion.

lovely place at an oaffordable price

The owner and her father were very friendly and helpful. The room was a little too small for 1 week holiday and the bathroom could be more modern but all in all a must, especially considering the price. We had a slightly more expensive room with balcony on the first floor, facing the sea. The weather was beautiful and very pleasant for the end of October. On the other side of the street (on the corner) there is the possibility to get lunch and diner at a very democratic price. Recommended..

Återkommer gärna

Började med en natt i rum med havsutsikt delvis skymd av träd vilket var utmärkt. Andra natten i rum mot infartsgata vilket var OK. Bra familjehotell med perfekt läge vid beach och 100 tal m från centrum. Alla i ägarfamiljen var mycket vänliga.

Gut und Preiswert

Schon unser 2ter Aufenthalt dort. Die Zimmer sind für diesen Preis super toll. Probleme gibt es mit dem W-Lan. Der funktioniert im Zimmer (egal welches) nicht. Die Küche ist super und auch nicht überteuert. Ein Auto sollte man schon haben damit man zu den schönsten Stränden fahren kann. Der Pool ist super groß allerdings nur mit Badekappe begehbar. Die kann man an der Rezeption kostenlos ausleihen. Der Fitnessraum ist leider nicht auf dem neusten Stand. Aber für ein paar Runden auf dem Rad reicht es.Es gibt verschiedene Zimmerkategorien mit verschiedenen Preisen. Wer nicht soviel Platz braucht nehme die Preiswerte Version. Wer Ruhe braucht liegt mit den teureren Zimmern besser. Alles in allem würden wir wieder unseren 3wöchigen Urlaub dort verbringen.

Wahooo vive galini hôtel

Court séjour très agréable dans cet hôtel en face de la plage. Accueil très très chaleureux du gérant et de ses enfants. Malgré que cet hôtel soit bord de route on entend rien, très bonnes fenêtres neuves. Climatisation neuve et silencieuse Juste une chose nous a dérangé, les portes qui claquent. Le matin le soir ... Prévoyez des bouchons d'oreilles et le tour est joué Je le recommande vraiment

Great hitel right by the beach

We stayed only for one night and it was great, right in front of the beach and the restaurant next door does great breakfast for only 5€. The building is new and everything is clean and works great. The shower was great (important for me as I have long hair). The only thing that could be improved is that in the bathroom through the ventilation you can smell adjacent bathrooms odors sometimes but it's something we experienced in other Greek hotels so other than that it's really great, and Plakias is a lovely town with AMAZING food ! And not so many tourists. I'll stay in this hotel again if we travel to Plakias again.
