Blue Horizon by Sotiris

Beautiful hotel at Sotiris Family Hotel and Studios. Fab location. Excellent facilities. Devoted Staff 24 hours a day. Lovely pool areas and plentiful sunbeds. Gorgeous beach near by at Ammas. Good and authentic tavernas all around the region.

I did my research before travelling and read all the reviews in particular how they were praising Maria and her team, well let me tell you they were not exaggerating. The Sotiris Hotel is family run business, situated in a quiet area despite the proximity to the airport, it has stunning grounds, with three good size pools a couple of restaurants, there is also a mini market within a short walk. There is a bus service daily from Svoronata to Argostoli including Sundays which cost 2Euros each way. You can make a connection to other towns from Argostoli's bus station, there is an information desk with all the time tables and information you need, all the busses are on time. I sincerely like to thank Maria and her team for all the help and support we got, nothing was too much trouble for her, I had fantastic holiday and hope to go back again next year. I

we stayed at the sotiris hotel for a week in September, from the moment we arrived until we left the staff were excellent nothing was too much trouble for them,the room we stayed in was lovely, cleaned every day,we loved it so much as soon as we came home we have booked for next year,ten nights instead of seven,as we didn't see enough of this beautiful island.

Lovely friendly staff, nothing was too much trouble. Hotel facilities were as we expected and the location was just right - peaceful and with just enough tavernas in walking distance. Easy to get further afield on the local bus, although it wasn't very frequent and could be a little unreliable.

The hotel is well-situated between two beaches, with good general amenities. However, the reception desk was rarely staffed, the same true of the pool bar, and the male staff were very surly and unhelpful in general. We were situated on the first floor, up a flight of steps, and the employee left me, a 63 year old woman, to drag my suitcase up unaided. The lighting for the outside corridors was rarely on, leading to health and safety risks - we were lucky to have brought a torch with us, but it was particularly dangerous for our young grandchildren at night on the second floor. This was not rectified despite several requests. The women employees worked really hard cleaning and cooking, and were invariably friendly.
