| said: The porto platanius and is across the road from the beach.our room was very good with a good individual air con.
The restaurent overlooked the sea but was hot at night as they did not seem to use the air con and if you sat outside you were with the smokers. The food was good with a good choice for all nationalities and there were not many brits in the hotel. Breakfast was as in any other hotel and again catered for all nationalities. There were no omeletts cooked to order it all came cooked in one or two large trays and it did not seem that popular but there was always fruit and yoghurt and cake at breakfast.
A brand new reception has been buit and now overlooks the main street in platanius, it opened the day before we left and it was excellent. Some new rooms have also been built behind it.
The hotel is rated as a five star in Greece but we rated it as a very good four star.
We enjoyed our stay and the variety of food but do not expect traditional greek food.tzatsiki was available every night and was very nice. We would return to this hotel.

| said: The hotel in itself was nice but we were put into self catering apartments adjacent to the hotel. When we booked we were under the impression we were staying at the hotel.
The Kronos apartments were old, with inferior decoration, furnishings and were more like 2* than the 4* rating they have been given.
Our room smelt so badly we had to open the doors of the wardrobe and drawers to ensure our clothes did not smell.
There was a "fresh air" spray which was electrical and sprayed the room every 5 minutes. The bedroom was very dark, the only window being at the front where the "lounge" area was.
We had also requested a first floor room. The hotel was 5* which we believed we had paid for. Eventually when water leaked through our bathroom ceiling we were moved to the hotel which until that time we had been told was full.
We were offered free beds on the beach, fruit and wine every day if we withdrew our complaint - we didn't. My brother and sister in law were unfortunate in that they were not transferred to the main hotel.
Their apartment was not cleaned until Sunday before we departed on the Tuesday when they threatened to throw their toilet paper bin over the reception desk and their neighbour did in fact throw the hair from her shower over the desk.
When we moved to the hotel, we discovered the difference was incredible although I would not say the hotel was 5* more like 4*.
The sun beds by the pool had towels on them by 7 a.m. and it was 4 euros to use the loungers on the beach. The food was excellent.

| said: This hotel is a 4 star which very much wants to be a 5 star and is already charging accordingly.
Rooms are nice, clean and modern.
Location is good, most hotel rooms overlook lovely small marina/harbour or the beach.
Resort is generally expensive [bars/food], but cleanish and quite smart.
Finally would we return? NO. Hotel and resort entertainment very poor and costly, and we are most certainly not late night party animals.
