Just arrived from magnificent Greece. We got to the hotel by accident, because in the Imperial Hotel (Nea Skioni) the owner turned out to be unscrupulous and our rooms with a balcony were rented out to others. Our tour operator offered us an alternative to the Lesse Hotel for a couple of days until the Imperial rooms we booked were released, but then we stayed there until the end of the holiday. Impressions about the hotel are only positive. Although it is located in the noisy village of Hanioti, the location is excellent for both a relaxing family holiday and for young people. The hotel is located on the outskirts of Chanioti, so it is very calm there. The center of Hanioti is 10 minutes on foot, but the village of Pivkohori is much more pleasant and interesting, 25 minutes on foot from the hotel or 5 minutes by taxi (6 euros). Now more about the hotel. Meals: breakfasts are good, but absolutely nothing has changed in 10 days (one menu). By the end of the holiday, we get bored a little, although this did not bother us, since we don’t particularly have breakfast at home. And here's dinner.......... charm. The chef spoils with a variety of dishes. Everything is very delicious. Especially grilled vegetables...........Drinks are paid, but not very expensive. Attention girls! there is a waiter Monolis there, something like that is his name, like a Greek-Georgian, he speaks Russian well, but he clings to the girls specifically, you shouldn’t smile at him and show interest, then there will be no passage, well, unless you yourself don’t mind. Very intrusive. George is a waiter at the pool-bar. A very pleasant person. Always smiling, cheerful, knows a little Russian, but you shouldn't give him a reason either))). Cleaning in the rooms is excellent, though if you leave money on the table. We left 1 euro every day, so towels and bedding were changed for us every day and cleaned perfectly. But a friend in the next building did not leave anything, so in 10 days they only changed towels and linen a couple of times. The territory of the hotel is small, but cozy enough. It’s 3 minutes to the beach, though going down the hill, back in the heat is not very pleasant, but it doesn’t really bother either. There is a nearby Molos beach (beach bar), we rested on it all the time. At 10 am they came and lay down on the sunbeds on the first line. Sun beds are free, but you need to order something (water 1 euro, ice cream 1.5 euro, beer 5 euro, fruit plate 5 euro, fresh juice 6 euro). But during the day you still take something. The sun is very dangerous. Even with cream and under an umbrella, you can get burned, so it’s better not to sit on the beach from 12.00 to 17.00. The beach is small pebbles, a bit dirty (smokers' fault). The water is very warm and clean. There are hedgehogs, so you need to constantly look under your feet, I was a little unlucky and had to deal with local marine inhabitants. In general, very satisfied with the rest. Greeks are very friendly and good-natured people. The cuisine is very tasty, the nature is beautiful. Just don't stay in a hotel. Rent a car and drive around Sithonia - very beautiful nature, picturesque coves. We also went to Meteora for 2 days. Dion and Olympus stopped by on the way. It turns out much cheaper and more pleasant than an excursion, if only for the sake of seeing Meteora at sunset, when it is completely deserted and there are no people, it takes your breath away. If there are any questions - write. I will be happy to help you. Have a good rest and only positive emotions!
