Stratos Hotel

Lovely welcoming hotel made all the more special by the friendly and attentive staff who greet and serve with a smile. Rooms are basic but cleaned and serviced every day with new towels provided every couple of days. Hotel is very close to the centre of the beautiful and very quaint village and is a 10 minute walk from the beach. Those who are less able bodied, elderly, or with young children, should be aware that the beach is downhill from the village and the walk back up can be pretty exhausting. If you have your own transport then it's not a problem as a road leads directly to the beach. Plenty of quality restaurants in the village, i would particularly recommend Soboro, excellent food, great beer and Nancy's delicious puddings! Afytos is a gem and The Stratos is very much a home from home. We hope to visit again very soon.

I don't often take the time to write reviews, but given that I chose this hotel based on the online reviews, I feel obligated to do so. It appears to be family owned hotel in the middle and a wonderful old town on the coast. Honestly, I'm a little shocked by all the great reviews, perhaps American standards are different. It was by far the most uncomfortable bed I've slept in on my trip, very dated and basic room. I have mixed feelings about the staff, some very present ( did their best to address the concerns I had) some extremely rude. Overall, not a place I would ever return to! I've traveled extensively throughout Europe for the past 25 years, I've stayed in hostels in my college years that had cleaner bathrooms. For the price, you can find much better places in Greece.
