Alkion Hotel Sidari

Where do I start!!! The good stuff, The hotel was very clean and staff were good and friendly too, the room was cleaned everyday, the entrainment was good everynight there were different entainments, I thought the bar prices were expensive though, the pool area was very clean and always plenty of beds too there were never a rush to get a bed, The bad stuff!!! The room i was in was at the back of hotel where all the deliveries were and not looking over the pool side, so every morning around 8 " it was something out of the carry on aboard " all the banging started the noise was unbelievable and this went on for hours, then around 8ish at night you had the noise of all the empty beer barrels been dragged across the tarmac plus other loud noises i did complain but nothing come of it, I also spoke to the rep Ricky again nothing come of it. It seems they had no consideration for the guest's, Then the food it was so bland they could have done something different as to me it seems the same everyday, so I went out most nights, the breakfast was OK but could have been better, but having said this the evening meals was only 10 euros and eat as much as you want, there were no dinner time meals but you could order baguettes which I thought was expensive too, so once you had breakfast there were nothing to eat during the day unless you ordered from a menu as I said were very expensive, I think they could had done a bit of entrainment during the day around the pool area like soft music to kill that silence but it was so dead,

This hotel is a gem of a find for us. The staff are so helpful and friendly, the food was exceptional with plenty of authentic Greek dishes and lots of choice. The highlight of our stay was the Greek night, which was tremendous! Our room was overlooking the garden and that is my only complaint. Even though it was a lovely room I side. It was a really dark room with not much natural light, which wasn't for me. But the weather was so mixed that it didn't matter too much. I highly recommend this hotel.

Hotel is in a good spot pool and bar area lovely, rooms were basic but clean myself and my niece were enjoying the hotel till we got accused of not paying for our evening meal 2 nights previous which we did it was a mistake on managements side the need to realise before you start making acusations get your facts correct before approaching us all the had to do was to to rewind the cctv quite simple really working in hospitality myself communincation is key also the two elderly brothers that own it are onsite constantly with very miserable faces as you are their paying guests you would think they would be happy and at least give you a smile not sure that i would return

The hotel is in a good location for beach, bars, and restaurants. The staff were polite and friendly but like some reviewers I did not find it necessary to know all their names and family background. Why would I I’ll probably never meet them again. Our room was relatively large compared to others I’ve been in. Bathroom was adequate but shower curtain too small so had to be kept open flooding bathroom. Cleaning was adequate. Coffee cups not washed, tables not wiped down, items left on floor. The big issue for us was the food. We stayed on half board basis. Breakfast was the same every day and barely lukewarm. Evening meal was edible but aimed at British tourists with little or no Greek dishes available. Do Greeks really eat frozen Brussels, carrots and peas? We ended up eating out for the last three nights of our stay. Do not go to eat at this hotel if you’re vegetarian. Very limited choice. Overall, would I stay here again? Yes but on bed and breakfast or room only basis.

This hotel is amazing! Let’s start at the beginning - Reception - Mixalis and Sherie are welcoming, friendly, helpful and always have time for a chat. Day - pool area has plenty of comfy and available sun beds. Food is fantastic (def give the Greek sausage baguette and village omelette a try) and the staff are brilliant. Special shout out to Marilyn for never stopping in the heat. Night - Christos, Tom and Spiros - we love you! Nothing is too much trouble (including midnight milkshakes), they entertain while serving. Bingo is a must, the acts are good and start and finish at a reasonable time (which may sound boring but it’s something to consider when you’re a family with a youngish child). Not to say the party stops though - it does continue! But it means they can see the entertainment too. Rooms - if anything, the beds are TOO comfy! We had to drag ourselves up out of them as you could happily stay sleeping. The cleaners are absolute star. Fasima especially who worked on our floor. Storage is ample, we had a bath and shower with plenty of hot water and good pressure and it’s definitely big enough with a decent balcony too, even for a family of 3. You can see why this hotel gets awards and repeat guests. We are already looking to book for next year as soon as our holidays are confirmed at work!

The food is terrible, there are basically no vegetarian options and if there are they are bad and all you could eat is salad. If you are vegan avoid at all costs you can only eat salad and that’s it. The breakfast was always the same everyday and didn’t change
