Dekelia Hotel

Dekelia hotel is a very attractive building with great amenities and friendly and welcoming staff. The pool is large in a beautiful, restful setting and everyone is smiling and relaxing. I found it hard to believe it is considered a 3 star hotel because it’s looks more like some 4 star hotels I have stayed in. It is clean, well kept and modern in appearance. The reception staff, the bar & kitchen staff and the cleaning staff were all extremely polite, warm and friendly. We were offered advice for places to visit be it shopping, cultural or beaches. They were always happy to chat and asked how we were and how our day out had been. I’m definitely returning there with my family. Only thing that might put some off, is that a car or taxis are really required to get around. The centre is only a few train stops away so not completely isolated. We had a car and used it to explore the area. Beautiful countryside and some pretty steep, hilly roads but it was stunning driving. Only 11 miles to the Marathon coast with lovely restaurants and locals eating there. Seafood was amazing and again friendly people to stop and chat to.

It is a great hotel, with astonishing pool (triangle shape, with deep water side (3.5 m) where you can sween over 20 meters. Great for swimmers, apnea, playing... Hotel bar and services in general are extremely nice and genuine. I stayed there because it's so close to the affialte offrice I visited, but I think I will go back with my kids (teenagers that love water). You need to be prepared to Friday and Saturdays busy evening in the Club nearby, but just makes it lively environment in the evening while the rest of the hotel you're in is very nice. Metro station direct to downtown Athens for visits is so easy and taxi costs around 20€ to Acropole.
