Хороший отель в центре Платамонаса Nice hotel in the center of Platamonas

Arrived in the evening, check in was very fast. But we did not like the room that was provided (a small balcony and immediately a neighboring building), we were immediately offered another room with a sea view and a large balcony. We paid 100 euros. We were 3 adults + 2 year old child. They offered a baby cot, but we refused because there was a folding sofa in the room and that suited us. The room has air conditioning, safe, refrigerator, TV, hair dryer. I do not know what languages ​ ​ the staff can communicate in, but there were no problems with English. Before the trip, I read that the tourist tax is paid upon arrival, but we were presented with an invoice upon departure, at the rate of 1.5 EURO for 1 day of stay. Rooms, cleaning, change of linen - everything is fine, but small showers, it will be difficult for large people. Every day in the evening live music. We heard well in our room, but it didn't bother us, quite the contrary. If it interferes, you can close the balcony and absolutely nothing will be heard. Breakfast - buffet, evening menu without choice. For 10 days, the dishes have never been repeated. We had a food problem for a 2 year old. There were no usual soups and porridge, if fried or french fries for dinner, I had to eat it - there were no options. In all of Platamonas, they did not find where you can feed the child and eat during the day, fast food is everywhere during the day. Perhaps because the season has not started and there will be more choice in the season. Only on the last day we found out that in our hotel you can order pizza in the afternoon. The pizza turned out to be very tasty. There is a pebble beach near the hotel, if you walk along the promenade towards the fortress, there is a sandy beach. We went there because of the child, the distance is not so great, it did not bother at all. But we liked to swim where the pebbles are. The sensations are different and the water is cleaner and warmer. Even further, at the foot of the mountain on which there is a fortress, a pebble beach with white stones, it’s cool there, but it’s far to walk. Repeatedly used the services of a travel agency near the hotel. Very good prices and selection of excursions. True excursions are quick, fact-finding. Very good excursion to the island of Skiathos, on the road 4.5 hours one way. but the road is absolutely not tiring, you can go with small children. We went to the meteors with a small child - no problem, though in Bolshiye Meteora they didn’t climb to the monastery with a child (164 steps to climb), you don’t need to climb to the convent, they took you by bus. I liked the tour. I didn’t like the Greek evening in Katharini at all - I don’t advise it. It is better to go to Olympus on your own (taxi or car rental), because with a tour there is little time on Olympus and they climb 100 meters. We went to the old Panteleimonas by taxi ourselves. They brought it there and then they came and took it away at the time that was agreed in advance. We paid 24 EUR for a taxi. You can order through the hotel reception or on the corner of the hotel there is a sign with taxi phone numbers.
