Flegra Palace

We were the first holidaymakers there from April 2024. The hotel staff are amazing and the hotel is really good. The transfer time from the airport is about 70 mins. We were on a bed and breakfast basis. As mentioned on previous reviews there are a great choice of cold foods and hot English . The pool is a good size but on the cold side. There are few Brits there and the clientele are on the elderley side making the hotel very quiet. There were children there but with no entertainment I wouldn't recommend it for them. The rooms were fine with a decent hot shower and free safety deposit box. We didn't realise about the hotel tax when we first checked in of 7 euros a day, so that was 49 euros for our week . The bar area and sevice is good with pints costing 4.5 euros. Wifi was great for us . To find the beach , turn right out of the hotel and look for the blue carpet hotel on the left over a busy road. Turn left and then second right down a short track, its about a 300 metre walk from the Flegra Palace. The beach is quite shingly and not great. You can hire 2 beds from the blue carpet for 10 euros which includes a large bottle of water. Pints are 4.5 euros. There are 2 nearby towns, Pefkochori is about half a mile out of the hotel turning right. The road is busy but there is a track on the right hand side behind a hedge or you can walk on the beach. There are bars and restaurants on the beach front but we found the better ones back over the main road and up a hill. Marios family restaurant on the main road seems to be the main place for Greek food, Gyros etc. The other town to the left is Chaniotis. Again , you must turn right then follow the beach path left by the blue carpet and follow for a mile. A taxi either way is 5 euros the same for Pefkochori. Chaniotis is about the same size but has a main square with bars etc, Kelfos seems the main bar with cocktails/sky sports. The Garden restaurant was great for food and Garry's Giros was very popular. All in all the hotel / resorts are on the quiet side for us Brits but thats what we enjoyed about it with its Greek charm.

We have just returned from our Easter holiday at the Flegra Palace hotel. We had the jacuzzi suite and we were four adults, my husband and my parents. We had plenty of space in the suite and we could spend time separetly if we felt like it. The terrace was great for spending time together at night and the sun chairs and jacuzzi were also well used by us. The restaurant had a great variety of food and it was quite delicious. The staff was also quite helpful and responded quite quickly to any request we had. One of the days my husband and I had a massage at the spa which was very relaxing. We will definetly return to the hotel if we come in the area again.

Everything was super clean, the staff was super nice, the beds were comfortable and they had super nice breakfast in the morning. The pool was also super clean, just a little bit cold hihi. They also have a restaurant at the hotel where you can eat and drink (+ a bar) 10/10, I highly recommend this hotel!

Excellent food and service, beautiful room with balcony or patio. I would recommend it to my family and friends and we would certainly book this hotel again for our stay. I'm hoping to return there for holiday in the near future.

Here's a very honest, personal review of this hotel. There are downsides but I'll save that for later. You have to consider its location. Our travel day (Oct 8th). Gatwick to Thessaloniki. Transfer through Holiday Extras / T4A (Transfers 4 All). This took 2 hours or so. We got the holiday through a British Airways sale. The 4* hotel is in between villages. You will need a car or take on the bus routes available to get around. Immediate village is Pefkohori. At least a mile away. The beach is a good 10 to 15 minute walk through streets across a busy road. The village is walkable but is the only one that is. Check in was painless. Receptionist cum manager was super friendly. "Porter" takes your luggage to your room. We got a free "end of season" upgrade to a family room. The 2nd floor room was spacious. Cleaned every day if needed. Good sized bed. Wardrobes with safe. Extra bedding. Good sized bathroom. Bedside tables. Coffee table. Two sofa beds. Power points everywhere. Bring travel plugs and all your chargers. Wi-Fi good everywhere. Dressing table with good sized mirror. TV. Fridge. Balcony with table and 4 chairs. Hanging space to dry clothes / towels. We were in room 308 which has a sea and pool view. Very special. Air con actually worked with its remote. We were on a B & B basis. You take breakfast in the Titanes restaurant. You enter via reception. You are greeted with options either side. Rice puddings / yoghurt / fruits / salads on one side. Cereals / breads / toaster / croissants on the other. Walking through you have all the jams and other spreads for your bread items. Then the "hot" food options. I tried the scrambled eggs, baked beans, "sausage", "bacon" first day. Bacon isn't a "British" bacon and the sausages are cocktail. All got cold within 5 minutes of sitting down to eat it. Then the drinks table consists three different types of coffee, teas and juices. The best hot food option is a freshly made omelette. We enjoyed breakfast once you get into the different mixes you can out together. Other facilities - a spa with pool and massage trea**ents. Kids play area with pool, table tennis and playground type items. The main pool with loungers. Another restaurant called Ambrosia, which we had two very nice meals at. And a bar which overlooks the pool area. All staff were very nice and friendly. Everywhere clean. Can't really fault the hotel but I will. We don't like to complain but I know some people do it just because. So, I hope that the following points are valid and will be looked into. Firstly, the room - the shower in the bathroom could not be hung up on its holder as it was too high to reach and it didn't hold very well. And one other thing to remember is that you cannot put toilet paper down the toilet. Not a complaint but something to remember. I was a bit disappointed with the hot food options at breakfast. A better way to keep things hot would be a good start

The hotel its nice reception staff are lovely and very helpful. The only thing I didn’t like about the hotel was the dogs and cats were roaming in the breakfast restaurant. But all in all everything it’s okay.

We spent a week in Flegra palace hotel using our avios partially. Read good reviews and weren't disappointed. Booked transfer through the hotel but be aware that it was the last stop and lots of people were dropped on way so it took an hour and a half to reach hotel. Hotel is very clean. Bedrooms though small have all basic luxuries like air-conditioning fridge kettle shampoo conditioner hand wash and a pull out magnifying mirror in the bathroom. The balcony has a round table chairs and a wall clothes drier. TV has only BBC news channel in English Breakfast was great with well laid out selection of everything including omelette made to order. Pool has plenty sunbeds but probably not enough during peak season. We used the spa swimming pool which is warmer. There's a Gym and message facility which we didn't use. We ate twice at the hotel and food is good. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Mostly walked 20 minutes to Pefkohori where there are lots of restaurants near beach and in town. This was a very relaxing holiday and a good break.

What a lovely hotel. Booked last minute and paid for an Executive room. Arrived and we were upgraded to a suite which was lovely. The bed was so comfortable, the pillows were perfect and sleep was easy due to comfort. The whole place was immaculate and spotlessly clean. The breakfast was plentiful with so much choice. Omelette and pancake cooked to order. Lots of fruit and cold cut meats. We only booked b&b but we did eat at the hotel. Once for lunch and once for evening meal. Price was reasonable. Drinks were reasonably priced too €4.50 for a large draught beer. We booked and visited right at the end of the season so most places outside the hotel had started to slow down or close altogether, but we had a walk out every night and found plenty of places to eat. The beach is a very short walk across the road and can be seen from most rooms. Lots of people complain about road noise, we couldn't have been any closer and didn't have any issues with noise. Overall a fabulous holiday and wouldn't hesitate to return.
