Hanioti Grandhotel. Tour operator Vilar Tours.
Visiting time second half of June 2010
We traveled as two families with children aged 3 and 6.
Transfer: The peculiarity of the transfer is that if you are taken to a place in a large bus without a transfer, then the last couple of hundred meters will have to be walked on foot with luggage in hand. The bus, due to its size, cannot drive up to the hotel.
Check-in: no matter how they asked to settle us nearby, nothing came of it, and despite the fact that upon arrival the hotel was half empty and that we and our friends had neighboring rooms empty for another five days. As a result, we got rooms in different buildings. Not to say that they would be very different from each other. The only thing we had in the first building was a bath and the bathroom was a little bigger. But the view of the stone courtyard, which subsequently pleased us very much. The view of the sea is certainly good, but the eternal hubbub of children swimming in the pool and playing on the lawn does not allow you to relax in the afternoon after dinner.
In the evening, the music in the bar beats until one in the morning, and a day later, at the same time, 20 meters from the bar, the evening karaoke program begins. It's just the finish line. Drunken and childlike howls like Taganka and Oh what a woman! ! ! trying to shout over the music in the bar, which the bartender makes louder in order to drown out the karaoke. And so the eternal struggle. How glad we were that we didn't have a Sea View.
The room card didn't work. I had to run 4 times to the reception to change cards, swear, and so on. The stuffiness in the corridors of the hotel was terrible. Of course there are no movers. Do not dream, we pick up luggage and go to the 1-2-3 floor.
Room: small, with a balcony and a small bathroom. Worn carpet on the floor, but not dusty, old shovels furniture. The beds are more or less decent. Moved two single beds, a separate bed for a child. The bathroom was more or less clean. On the balcony there is a table and a couple of chairs. Never sat there.
During the day the sun is terrible and there is no shade, in the evening you can sit in a bar or just take a walk. In general, the first impression is quite digestible. In the end, sleep, change clothes, etc. Upgraded the air conditioner. In order to save money, the minimum temperature at which it will turn on is if you set it on a scale of 29-30 degrees. Naturally, there can be no question of any cooling. In a nutshell, he worked only to say that the temperature in the room was 2-5 degrees lower than outside. And if on the street 35 then count yourself. Conder turns on only when the balcony door is closed and a card is inserted, which is issued in a single copy, probably with the aim that tourists do not leave cards in the receiver and do not try to cool the room in their absence. Now imagine 35 degrees in the shade you had lunch and go to the room to change clothes for a nap and so on. It will take 2 hours before he at least somehow cools the air.
It remains one to stand under a stream of warm air and use it as a fan. The noise from it is considerable, and the coolest thing is that if there is a desire to open the balcony to ventilate the room at night, then after turning it off, such a howl is heard, as if a megawatt generator is working in your room. Although, to be honest, they rolled so much that they fell asleep without hind legs, and this fact did not really bother. Cleaned the room well, every day and with a vacuum cleaner. There are no complaints. There is a safe. You need to leave a deposit of 50 euros for the key, otherwise it is free. I was confused by the key, which by no means looked like even the key to the barn. Just an iron plate without cuts. Even I would open such a safe with a screwdriver.
Meals: In a nutshell, very high-quality products, and quite tasty cooked. Let the assortment change infrequently and not so large, but no one will die of hunger, except for notorious snobs.
Breakfast is always the same, I was pleased with the presence of cereals in the assortment: buckwheat, semolina, rice. I have never seen such porridge for breakfast anywhere else. For those with kids, it was easier to feed their child. Dinner; a couple of types of meat, 1 type of fish have always been apart from the rest. We even ate shrimp once. Uhhh yummy. Vegetarians won't die of hunger either. Salads are always fresh, not weathered, freshly cut. I will not hide the fact that a situation is quite possible when you will not get the most delicious, because they bring it in once at the beginning of the meal. So there was a queue for the opening. Then everyone rushed to grab a red fish or a piece of octopus. This food was enough for no more than 5-10 people, but oh well, the rest was enough to eat. Fruits are always delicious watermelons and melons. The rest is like in our ruins (grass and wood) Dinner: better than lunch. Sweet tasty little. Beer, wine, ouzo get drunk all day long.
Juices are body-worn Zukos or Yuppies. In order to maintain health, I recommend not to give them to children. The same can be said about cola, sprite and phantom. From what chemistry they are made there, no one will tell you. In general, the food is acceptable. Ice cream only for children a couple of hours a day at the bar.
Once a week Greek evening for a fee of 18 euros. Dances etc. In principle, not bad.
The bar is a separate issue. I must say right away that it is very pleasant to sit in it in the evening. Comfortable chairs, nice music. As for me, it was perfect for my taste, Reggae, Morengo, etc. etc. In general, music for relaxing in the evening on the beach by the sea with a cocktail in hand. That's when the karaoke session started at 9-00, see above)). Cocktails at the bar seem to be a good choice at All Ink, but they are made on the basis of all the same terrible chemical juices and sodas. It is better to drink wine or beer. For money, the bartender will make a small masterpiece. Oh so delicious. It costs 6 euros for any cocktail.
And if you leave a tip, it will be hoo. Here are the real juices and so on. The bartender is a separate issue. Zakhar or Zaharias, as you like. A very pleasant person. Half the nice thing about the hotel is it. I was very surprised when in the guest book, through a review, a mention of him with words of gratitude. We join. The kids just fell in love with him. They also left Chevy, but here is just such a case that I’m sure they have nothing to do with it. Just a good person. Gentlemen, you need to be friends with the bartenders)) And then instead of tap water in plastic, they will give you a glass bottled with ice, a straw and a slice of lemon. I also saw snobs who considered the bartender a servant, but there were very few of them. Thanks again to Zakhar for the evenings at the bar. The girl who worked with him did a great job too. By the way. If the authorities read these reviews, then I demand to encourage these employees. ))
Beach: Quite a clean, but narrow. Sunbeds are tight, but not critical.
There were almost always empty seats, but since there were six of us, then in order to lie next to each other, 4 sunbeds were occupied in the morning.
Once there were waves, the beach was a little washed away and it became quite narrow. The sea is warm and clean. The municipal beach next door is certainly crowded, we were not crowded both on the beach and in the water. Entertainment like scooters, bananas, etc. , etc. right there on the beach.
Service: Of the service that exists in the hotel, there is nothing to complain about. From reception to maids and waiters. All worked, if not flawlessly, but quite a very good one. Girls from Vilar are always in the lobby and are always ready to help you. They changed constantly, but all well done.
Territory: None. Stone yard and all. But there is a nice park nearby. The town itself is very pleasant, blooming, green. For tourists, there are all standard and non-standard entertainments. The location of the hotel in the town is perfect.
One thing can be said. The 21st century has the internet. And if they don't tell you something, you can always look there. For example, I came to the hotel as to my dacha, I knew everything and was not surprised at anything. The money paid for it is absolutely not a pity. It was a conscious choice. Everything was wonderful. Rest was a success. The main thing is a positive attitude. It must be clearly understood that this is a good three-ruble note, where 4 stars come from is not clear. Overall assessment of the hotel as a four-star 3/5, as a three-star 5/5
Special thanks to Vilar Tours. All; from buying the vouchers themselves to transfers and local staff. You can say Bravo. Well done. Nothing to complain about. Thank you for a good holiday. Make it look like an advertisement
I hope my essay will help someone make the right choice. Good luck to you.
