Altura

I stayed in Altura or Mavrikos hotel during the last week of September with my wife and we had a lovely stay. It is not a 5 star hotel so if you do not expect a luxury hotel then you will have a nice time as the two of us did. We were given the top floor room and had a nice view over the whole city with a view of the sea as well. Reaching it was not hard at all since there was an elevator so not problem with that. Staff members were super polite from the check in to the check out. The food was great also and the chef really knew what he was doing - super tasty and not as repetitive as others claim. Consider the fact you are visiting Greece and you ought to try Greek cuisine and not eat the fish and chips every single day. A special greeting to our receptionist from Albania who was super friendly throughout our stay. Cleaning lady was doing a great job with the room and upkeep. Pool is not huge but the beach itself is not to far - if memory serves me right it was about 10-15 minutes away depending on your pace. Only bad thing about the pool were the other super lazy guests whom we would see each and every day at the same exact sunbed meaning they did not even take a stroll to the beach (couch potato at home turns into a sunbed potato :) Basically that meant no sunbeds were available since most of them were utterly lazy and just used the all inclusive offer to the max. Please do not be one of these guests and try to see a bit of the city - it is super nice and cozy - easily walkable and so many nice things to see outside of tsilivi itself. Thank you once again for a lovely stay and best of luck to the staff members - hopefully you will have a great 2018 season :)

I visited this hotel with my fiancé in June and to be completely honest... it was nice! The food was plentiful and lovely, it was great for grabbing a light lunch and ice cream throughout the day, the salad was our favourite, especially the large lump of feta every day! We didn't really eat there for dinner as there were too many lovely restaurants in the town and all for a great price. The rooms were clean and the price of air con was what you expect and well worth it! We had a mega heat wave so it was needed! The literal only downfall was the subbed situation, that was a bit difficult as it was a long walk to the beach and you can't take advantage of your all inclusive. The hill was really not that bad! I was 6 months pregnant at the time so was dreading it when I read the reviews but it's not that awful, it's steep but short so it was fine! We'd love to come back as the hotel is in a great location and everything was lovely but it's just the sunbed issue putting us off :(

Stayed here 29th Sept for a week. Iv stayed in flash hotels and paid flash money for them. This hotel is 3 star and cheap as chips. If you want flash don't book a 3 star and then moan! I had the time of my life here, my room was comfortable, the food was nice, warm and enjoyable. The staff was lovely, nadia on reception was very helpful. The pool was smaller than I expected but still had fun. I'd stay here again, in fact I'm already planning the next trip. People expecting luxury for a £2.50 and a Benson holiday hahaha.... Idiots!
