Albatros Hotel

Great experience from start to finish! They arranged taxis, and helped us with bus and restaurant info. The room was bright, clean, and very comfortable. All of the staff were so friendly. We especially loved Bana at the front desk. The price was very affordable for budget travelers. We would definitely stay again.

Had no problems at all. Hotel is incredibly clean. Staff super friendly. (Especially young girl on reception 😘). Even got greeted when we came back to the hotel at 22.30/23.00. Breakfast was included. Great variety of foods. Twenty min walk to the bus station or €1.30 on the bus. Means it’s a quiet location near a couple of restaurant and supermarkets. Didn’t use the pool but looked lovely.

POSIZIONE BUONA, OTTIMA LA PULIZIA, MA CON IL MENU' PROPRIO NON CI SIAMO....TORTELLINI IN BRODO IL 20 DI AGOSTO? IL RAGU' DI CARNE PER LA PASTA DEI RAGAZZI AVEVA UN ODORE E UN GUSTO ACRE/DOLCIASTRO CHE IN SALA HO NOTATO CHIUNQUE LO AVESSE SCELTO NON L'HA MANGIATO. PECCATO CHE NON ABBIA FOTOGRAFATO LA COTOLETTA CON PURE' PER CENA, MI ENTRAVA DENTRO UNA MANO PER DIMENSIONI. I BISCOTTI, LE FETTE BISCOTTATE DELLA COLAZIONE NON ERANO CROCCANTI, MA DI UNA CONSISTENZA COME QUANDO UN PACCO DI BISCOTTI E' STATO APERTO DA PARECCHI GIORNI. DELUSO MOLTO DELUSO, RAPPORTO PREZZO/QUALITA' NON ADEGUATO. DIMENTICAVO NON E' VERO CHE IL PARCHEGGIO E' GRATUITO. SCONSIGLIATO

The hotel is clean and decently appointed. However, an extremely rude older woman at the front reception can’t be bothered with guest’s questions. She actually waved me away when I asked her for a bowl at breakfast. She could use some training…

Room size is okay, location around the hotel is good and walkable to Fira. The bus stop is near the hotel. Staff is polite and helpful. Bathrooms are outdated and small, no water pressure, which was frustrating. Pool was not clean.

We arrived during the day and the daytime receptionist (gray hair) is not very friendly, not warm, seemed very annoyed if you asked her anything. The evening receptionist is super nice, warm, always smiling. I was so happy to see someone different at night. Our room was the first one off reception (room 201). It was two twin beds pushed together. I did ask if there were rooms with one double bed and told no. Then I was told they were all on the first floor. I would have gladly paid for the upgrade, but the day time receptionist got pretty rude about all of it and didn't entertain the idea of a different room. Keep in mind we saw only one other couple at the hotel the entire stay, it's low season now. The pool was dirty but then we noticed they drained it two days later - end of season. The room was clean, except for the glass in the bathroom. The shower was so darn tiny. That would have been fine if they had a shower curtain that worked. The 2 foot by 2 foot shower had a shower curtain that was too short and the curtain stuck to you the entire shower. The entire bathroom floor was wet after you showered. We just couldn't use the bathroom after showering and it was gross to shower with a curtain stuck to your body. Our view was another building out the balcony and air conditioning units. Internet was good because we were literally 5 feet from the reception area. I would choose another hotel, but this was part of a tour so we didn't have much of a choice.

Lovely, enjoyed our stay very much. Clean and tidy room, hand held shower but we were ok with that, polite helpful staff, nice pool. Only comment I would add is, ‘get more staff on the breakfast rota, the two poor girls we had were rushed off their feet’. Otherwise happy!

We found this hotel to be very clean, the staff are very helpful and friendly. Great breakfast, large clean pool, and the location is central to many restaurants. I recommend this hotel to all. Note, previous reviews seemed to be unduly harsh, and are possibly outdated.

After reading some of the negative reviews of this hotel we were a bit concerned. But after staying here I must say the hotel and staff were excellent. The staff was very accommodating especially friendly was the grey haired lady spoken about in some reviews. She helped us arrange a tour of the island and was generally concerned that we were having a great time. Hotel staff were also quite friendly and exceptional at helping us find our way around. Excellent value.
