Orion Hotel

Again perfect, you cannot fault the Orion. Consistency all the time, great food, lovely relaxed environment, pleasant happy staff. Very clean and modern, no negatives or improvement suggestions which is hard to say when reviewing. Thank you all for the Orion.

Just returned from our 1st stay at this amazing hotel and we have already booked to go back in October. Upon arrival we were welcomed into the bar at midnight by the owner George and his friend Stefano. (The vodkas were not UK measures lol) The food and alcohol were cheaper than outside the hotel and the quality and quantity were spot on. Maria and Chris looked after us faultlessly and never questioned us being fussy and tweaking our meals to perfection. The hotel is spotlessly clean and the maid service is great. I’ve never stayed at a hotel and questioned the star rating as being too low! Room has under counter fridge, hair drier and free aircon that was icy cold. Regardless of the time we surfaced we always got a sun bed. A truly wonderful hotel x

Central Hotel near the main ***** but still quiet in our accommodation block. Nothing special but good value for the price paid. Didn't bother with food so no comment there, but staff were helpful and we were happy enough. Reception and food were near the entrance, then two furth blocks for accommodation. We were at the back block. Large room with balcony, bathroom with bath and shower, but no plug to take a bath with and we found the bath narrow and awkward to stand in for a shower. Small TV and fridge, small table and small single beds. Functional rooms and well worth it if you can get a goodvprice

Room clean with lovely comfy bed. Good breakfast selection. Pool clean- but cool but it is May. Plenty sunbeds. Pool bar has a wonderful selection of food and drinks. All the staff are amazing. Bring a hairdryer. Block 2 odd numbers face pool

Brilliant Hotel arrived midnight 3rd October for 14 nights, had room 201 with wrap around balcony. The side was east facing so got the sun rise, and the front balcony south facing so had sun all day. Room had 3 beds with bath / shower, free WiFi and air con saves you money and safe at reception only 10€ pool very large and good for swimming deep end 2.2m, breakfast nice with plenty of choice. Pool bar has excellent food at reasonable prices and George looks after you. 350m from the beach and a 5 to 10 min stroll to the centre but lots all the way along the road will defo be back next year

First time in Greece. We choose the Orion hotel from a mixture of reviews, pictures and gathering as much information on the area. The hotel was definitely more than I expected definitely deserves more than 3 *s . All Staff were fantastic, food at breakfast and dinner was great. Had lunch at the pool bar, the portion sizes were rather large that we ended up sharing. Room was basic but were great massive and they balcony view to pool was fantastic. There was nothing to much hassle for any of the staff if you asked for help they did there best to help and accommodate you. It was a fantastic holiday I would definitely recommend to anyone and we will definitely be back. 5 min walk to beach and 5/10 min walk to main ***** with bars and restaurants all the way up so definitely spoiled for choice.

Arrived early hours of the morning to check in. We were given rooms in the annexe across the bridge. That was ok but dragging cases (because it’s fairly steep) would have been a nightmare. However the nice chap on reception helped us. We have stayed here several times before so know the facilities. The breakfast in the restaurant is ok. No fruit juice so I just took my own in. Pool area is great and in September there were plenty of sunbeds. Pool bar exceptional as are the staff, particularly Maria. Great English breakfast can be bought here and they do lunch and dinner and serve snacks until midnight. Yes the rooms are basic but clean and definitely need upgrading, as do the bathrooms but are adequate for a 3*. Ten minute walk to bar street and five minutes to the beach. For the price, it’s worth staying here.

Stayed at the Orion for a week in September with my partner. Overall it was a positive experience but could have been better. Reception/Arrival: The flight times to Greece from the UK are very late (obviously not a fault of the hotel) but it means getting into the hotel in the early hours of the morning. When we arrived we were greeted by a member of staff on reception who told us we had a room for the night but then had to change in the morning, which, when you’ve been travelling all day and just want to unload your case to make the next morning easier is a bit of a chew. We were shown to a room (319) which could only be described as ‘cell like’ with no windows or a balcony. It was an adjoining room so obviously meant to be a second bedroom to one of the other rooms but as first impressions go it wasn’t a good one. We went down the next morning and were moved rooms. Overall the reception staff were friendly and helpful and on the last day we were able to keep the room on until 6pm at a cost of €45 (normal checkout is 11am) Rooms: Very basic and dated would be my overarching comment. All of the furniture looks like it has come from the 80’s but is still functional. The bed is a great size (as it’s two singles together with a mattress topper) so no complaints there. Mattresses are comfortable although the pillows are hit and miss. Some are soft but some are old and hard. Balcony is a great size and if you have a pool view it’s really nice. Now for my major bugbear and the reason I wouldn’t return to the Orion, the bathroom. They need ripping out and redoing. Both rooms that we had were the same. The bath is like some sort of half bath which is very deep but so hard to get a shower in. The curtain is right on your back and sticks to you, the shower head doesn’t affix to the wall properly and if you have it on full power it wildly sprays upwards. The tap in our first room had zero pressure and in the second room if you put it on full it sprayed out of the bottom of the tap. There’s a random plughole in the middle of the bathroom floor, presumable because they know you’ll get the floor soaking with the shower but when you’re sitting on the toilet it’s right where your left foot would go. I’ve stayed in 3* hotels before that have been far better appointed than this one, that’s for sure. Pool area: Fantastic. Plenty beds which the good ones are often taken early but always seems to be more than enough beds for guests. The pool is great for a dip and seems relatively clean and tidy. Pool bar: One of the best parts of the hotel. The staff are excellent, food is excellent and reasonably priced too. Plenty of drink options for round the pool if you need to cool off or rehydrate. There is a good amount of seating and a pool table (although the cues are falling apart). Restaurant: We stayed bed and breakfast and only used the restaurant once as weren’t not really breakfast people. Seemed to be a decent choice of food although the cold drinks were la

This hotel is a little gem. It was even better than i was expecting and the pictures advertised don't do it justice. The balconys are huge and spacious with table and chairs. Bed is huge. Grounds are clean and definitely better than a 3 star. Great location to shops, restaurants etc and the beach is 5 mins away. Would 100% stay here again.
