Was here a wonderful summer, but a short vacation-2014. We chose the hotel from the position of "economically, but with claims")) and the London hotel in Glyfada near Athens was supposed to provide us with an inexpensive but most capacious and bright vacation. In addition, there were few reviews about him and this gave a sweet hope of the unknown . .
Of the shortcomings. None of the staff speaks Russian. Guests need to know and speak (which is better) English at least minimally. But you will have to talk . . because they can settle instead of a Double Super room in a Double Solid Minus with a view of the attic of a neighboring halabuda or without a view or a window at all. In this case, with a European smile, but very confidently, you need to demand to change this number, even if "everything is busy. " By the way, check-in after 11-00. Before? No options. The hotel does not have an entertainment program, and the hotel can be said to be on the outskirts of the town. The rooms have old TVs. Gas station near the hotel. Very close. As well as a busy highway with madly chasing drivers: from motorcycles to regular buses. The hotel restaurant in the evening is only open until 9-10 o'clock, and the nearest one is at least 15 minutes away. Of the minuses, this is probably all!
There will be more benefits. Among them, very tasty and healthy food (the hotel is open for breakfast). Rooftop restaurant with great views. Cleanliness in the room and a shower with a full screen, which is not typical for Greek 3 * hotels) The constant availability of toiletries from soap to body milk. Great international crowd. An area of ​ ​ calm and well-groomed streets with an American flavor of private houses. Safely. Close to the sea. You can choose from a free beach and a variety of paid beaches at different times of availability, including Vouliagmeni beach with Garra Rufa fish. With a modern tram that stops right on the beach, you can reach Athens in a maximum of 30 minutes. The center of Glyfada can be reached on foot or by bus. In the town you will find shopping, currency exchange, cafeterias, restaurants... until late at night, but not at lunch (for the Greeks, it is approximately from 11 to 16). At lunchtime, the city freezes. Of all the establishments, we especially recommend to look into Pagotomania and buy waffles with ice cream (huge selection, huge portion !! ) If I come to this city again, this will be my first place to visit... naturally, after a wonderful sea bath in the Saronic Gulf of the Aegean Sea !
