We were excited about the idea of the entire hotel being "Al a carte" but when we arrived, it was hurried and felt like a cafeteria. You couldn't enjoy a meal because you had to go up to get your drinks and the food you ordered came in a minute. In general, the food was terrible for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The pizzas were the only ideal thing we had. The majority of our lunches and dinners we had to eat out because the few options were either greasy, low quality options. Even the salads weren't fresh. We were concerned it was just us but we discovered it was the same for a few other couples as well. Would not recommend at all if you like to eat healthy at home. I’ve never eaten in a hotel where the food is worst than I can cook at home. It was misleading in that you only get a limited menu with and must pay for the remaining items at Al A Carte. We decide to have the inclusive mains and pay for the starters. Each tuna tartar cost €22, and it was awful and not fresh. We decided to forgo the second ala carte meal because the first was so bad and to go out to eat in the old town instead. It was the same with the cocktails, there was a limited menu with all of the standard cocktails being €6. There wasn't enough staff, they were all quite unpleasant, and the service was terrible. It was very obvious they were making comments about guests in Greek. We weren't even asked how our stay was when we checked out. This is not, by any means, a 5*, in my opinion. Not to seem too dramatic, but my partner and I were eager to get home! We made an effort to be upbeat, but we felt like we were losing the battle because there was always something new to overcome! We wanted to do days out and boat trips but the money we brought with us had to be spent on food, which we didn’t account for. However, it was a good location to get a really cheap bus into the old town. The aesthetic of the hotel was lovely and it was really clean!
