阿巴圖斯酒店(Albatros Hotel)

POSIZIONE BUONA, OTTIMA LA PULIZIA, MA CON IL MENU' PROPRIO NON CI SIAMO....TORTELLINI IN BRODO IL 20 DI AGOSTO? IL RAGU' DI CARNE PER LA PASTA DEI RAGAZZI AVEVA UN ODORE E UN GUSTO ACRE/DOLCIASTRO CHE IN SALA HO NOTATO CHIUNQUE LO AVESSE SCELTO NON L'HA MANGIATO. PECCATO CHE NON ABBIA FOTOGRAFATO LA COTOLETTA CON PURE' PER CENA, MI ENTRAVA DENTRO UNA MANO PER DIMENSIONI. I BISCOTTI, LE FETTE BISCOTTATE DELLA COLAZIONE NON ERANO CROCCANTI, MA DI UNA CONSISTENZA COME QUANDO UN PACCO DI BISCOTTI E' STATO APERTO DA PARECCHI GIORNI. DELUSO MOLTO DELUSO, RAPPORTO PREZZO/QUALITA' NON ADEGUATO. DIMENTICAVO NON E' VERO CHE IL PARCHEGGIO E' GRATUITO. SCONSIGLIATO

The hotel is clean and decently appointed. However, an extremely rude older woman at the front reception can’t be bothered with guest’s questions. She actually waved me away when I asked her for a bowl at breakfast. She could use some training…

Room size is okay, location around the hotel is good and walkable to Fira. The bus stop is near the hotel. Staff is polite and helpful. Bathrooms are outdated and small, no water pressure, which was frustrating. Pool was not clean.

We arrived during the day and the daytime receptionist (gray hair) is not very friendly, not warm, seemed very annoyed if you asked her anything. The evening receptionist is super nice, warm, always smiling. I was so happy to see someone different at night. Our room was the first one off reception (room 201). It was two twin beds pushed together. I did ask if there were rooms with one double bed and told no. Then I was told they were all on the first floor. I would have gladly paid for the upgrade, but the day time receptionist got pretty rude about all of it and didn't entertain the idea of a different room. Keep in mind we saw only one other couple at the hotel the entire stay, it's low season now. The pool was dirty but then we noticed they drained it two days later - end of season. The room was clean, except for the glass in the bathroom. The shower was so darn tiny. That would have been fine if they had a shower curtain that worked. The 2 foot by 2 foot shower had a shower curtain that was too short and the curtain stuck to you the entire shower. The entire bathroom floor was wet after you showered. We just couldn't use the bathroom after showering and it was gross to shower with a curtain stuck to your body. Our view was another building out the balcony and air conditioning units. Internet was good because we were literally 5 feet from the reception area. I would choose another hotel, but this was part of a tour so we didn't have much of a choice.

Wirklich nicht zu empfehlen. Das Hotel wurde von der Reiseagentur Velotrek gebucht. Die anderen Hotels auf unserer Reise waren super, das Albatros ging gar nicht. Muffige Matratze. Vollkommen liebloses Frühstück. Unfreundliches, wenig flexibels Personal (auf unserer Reise waren zwei Aufenthalte geplant, nach dem ersten baten wir für den zweiten um ein Doppelbett. Bei der zweiten Anreise war dann nur ein 3 Bettzimmer mit getrennten Betten verfügbar, obwohl zwei Damen die vor uns eincheckten gefragt wurden, ob es OK sei, dass ihr Zimmer ein Doppelbett habe). Das Bad auf dem Zimmer nur leidlich sauber. Die Toiletten am Pool einfach nur ekelhaft. Macht einen großen Bogen um dieses Hotel! Wir werden auch Velotrek empfehlen dieses Hotel zu umgehen…@

Lovely, enjoyed our stay very much. Clean and tidy room, hand held shower but we were ok with that, polite helpful staff, nice pool. Only comment I would add is, ‘get more staff on the breakfast rota, the two poor girls we had were rushed off their feet’. Otherwise happy!

After reading some of the negative reviews of this hotel we were a bit concerned. But after staying here I must say the hotel and staff were excellent. The staff was very accommodating especially friendly was the grey haired lady spoken about in some reviews. She helped us arrange a tour of the island and was generally concerned that we were having a great time. Hotel staff were also quite friendly and exceptional at helping us find our way around. Excellent value.

We were very skeptical when our tour booked us at this hotel. The reviews are not good, but we went in with an open mind. It is clear that they have made improvements over the years. The windows & doors are all new. The floors, the grounds and all areas of the hotel are remarkably clean. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly, despite what some of the previous reviews are indicating. We did have one issue. We were assigned the farthest room from the front, room #221 or #241. The Wi-Fi would not work in our room, which was a big deal when that is how we stayed in touch with family at home. The room was also extremely small, even for standards in Greece. After one night the staff was able to move us to another room which had working Wi-Fi and was also considerably larger. They really stepped up to resolve the situation. The showers are very small, but that seems to be a standard this part of the world. Being just outside of Fira was not an issue. It was nice and quiet with some fantastic restaurants about 500 meters down the road. The bus system in Santorini is excellent and there is stop just steps from the hotel door. Pool is also very large and a great place to relax. I wouldn't dismiss this property.

Lady at the front desk in the evening is sweet but... You have to pay €3 to take a towel to the swimming pool ‼️ Seriously. The shower is smaller than one sq. meter/yard -- and the plastic shower curtain will cling to you. 😱 You may save a little money with this inconvenient lodging, but it's not worth it.
