The property is a very affordable spot right off the beach. The rooms and furniture are a bit dated, but completely functional and completely good given the cheaper price you are paying. Breakfast is your standard Greek fare. The staff were exceptionally nice and let me hang out in their onsite even after I checked out since my next booking wasn't until later.

Fin beliggenhet. Trenger noen oppgraderinger
Hotellet har en fin beliggenhet rett ved stranden. Vi hadde lest på hotels.com at hotellet hadde restaurant og bar. Vi håpet på mulighet for noe å spise da vi ankom ca. kl.22. , men det var intet personale tilstede. Lå et velkomstskriv og nøkkel på disken i resepsonen. Vi gikk en tur ut i hagen og hørte at det var liv og røre på nabo-hotellet. Nederst i hagen så det ut som vi bare kunne gå via stranden nedenfor hekken og inn på bar-området til naboen. Det var ikke noe lys nederst i hagen hos oss og da jeg tok skrittet ned på stranden viste det seg at det var en høydeforskjell på 2-3 meter i form av en steinrøys. Jeg forsvant i "intet" og landet i steinura mot en betongmur. Min kjæreste så bare at jeg ble borte og hørte bare store bølger som slo mot land. Så falt hun også utfor skrenten og landet oppå meg. Vi var heldige og ble ikke alvorlig skadet. Vi fikk førstehjelp og god behandling av personalet på nabohotellet. Morgenen etter fortalte vi resepsjonisten på hotel Arion hva som hadde skjedd og ga klar beskjed om at hotellet må få satt opp lys der hvor vår "ulykke" skjedde, før noen blir alvorlig skadet. Heller ikke særlig tilfredstillende at dørene er åpne om natten og det ikke er noen nattevakt i resepsjonen. Vi hadde noen klager vedr. div. mangler på rommet. Dette ble ordnet av et hyggelig og imøtekommende personale. Hotel Arion har et stort potensiale. Litt maling, rydding i hagen osv. vil gi et mye bedre førsteinntrykk! Frokosten var god og vi hadde et greit opphold.

Wir waren 10 Tage in diesem Hotel und es hat uns sehr gut gefallen die Zimmer sind klein und zweckmäßig aber sauber das Frühstück ist zwar jeden Tag in etwa das gleiche aber ausreichend, die direkte standlage ist wirklich toll und es ist absolut ruhig oft waren wir ganz alleine in der Anlage. Besonders zu empfehlen ist das Hotel wenn man einen Mietwagen hat aber auch dort kann man schöne Dinge unternehmen Kolombari kann man fußläufig erreichen.

Don't want to be too negative in the review because we got a little bit of what we paid for. We were a little disappointed because the hotel looked a little better in the pictures than in reality. Big plus to the receptionist who was very nice to talk to and the breakfast which tasted very good. However, we wanted a little better cleaning in the rooms as there were still old shampoo bottles from the previous guests
