아트리움 호텔 플라타니아스

First of all , the hotel’s staff was amazing . Friendly and always with a smile . I just want to stand to the manager named Konstantinos ( if I write it right) , he doesn’t speak good English and I couldn’t communicate easy . I gave to him Tips for all the guys in the restaurant and he thought that I gave them only for him and he took them in his pocket . I asked James if he share it or if he told to the guys about them and he said me no he doesn’t knew anything . This is unexeptable . It’s a 4 star hotel and I think the manager has to be more professional and my opinion is he doesn’t have to look the guests in their pockets. Reminder : If you want to leave a tip give it cash and directly to the guys who worked . Never to the manager . But afterwards the room was very nice with a nice view . Lovely breakfast and lunch with plenty of options .

Beautiful traditional hotel with modern bedrooms and beautiful relaxing public areas. Fantastic sea views and 10 minute walk to nearby restaurants. The staff are professional and attentive. We had a wonderful 11 night stay, cleanliness and quality is of a very high standard. Met lots of returning guests which says a lot about this hotel. Thank you for a wonderful and memorable holiday.

Excellent room with sea view and garden, convenient for local restaurants, buses and just a short walk to the beach. Staff were very friendly and helpful, good choice at breakfast with gluten free bread available on request. Very pleasant pool area with a poolside bar and restaurant. An added bonus was the nest of baby swallows in our corridor, which was a surprise on our first evening! One minor complaint would be that the pool was closed until 9.30am, yet the hotel did nothing to prevent people walking past the barrier before then to reserve sunbeds. Overall though a very pleasant stay.

Stayed 6 nights in July. Service was generally excellent. Breakfast and dinner buffet dinners were very good - good quality food and very tasty, plenty of variety. Staff were thoughtful and friendly. Views from the hotel are fantastic, it’s very well laid out so almost all rooms have good views, and at sunset it’s very atmospheric. Rooms spacious, clean, attractively furnished and well equipped with fridge and kettle. Pool area and terrace is extremely pleasant, and there are lots of inside public areas to sit if you want (though these seemed barely used) with nice furnishings and interesting decorations and historical objects. Good pool table available for use at €5/hr. The beach of Agia Paraskevi is extremely nice and 5 mins down the hill. Things we didn’t like so much: the pool has too few loungers around it, and this encourages the usual behaviour of people draping towels over loungers to reserve them. Even an hour before the pool was officially open, half the loungers would be ‘reserved’. Twice we were unable to get anywhere to sit. Secondly the rooms at the bottom (floor 1) are very close to the busy main road and the outside seating / terrace can be a bit noisy. The day we arrived we asked very politely if there was any chance we could move because of the road noise and the receptionist’s first response was ‘if you shut the window you won’t hear the noise’ which really was a breathtakingly poor way to respond (was the only bad experience we had with the staff) but when we persisted she did reluctantly ask the manager if it was possible, which it wasn’t. Finally be aware that you are somewhat captive at this hotel. There’s not a lot else around - the beach, a tiny mini market 500m down the road. There’s a regular bus service to and from Skiathos town with many stops on the way; it’s a very good service but in the evening (eg 7-8.30) it can be impossible to get on because it’s already packed completely full.

Very nice and very clean, lots of lovely and attentive staff, always someone around to help you. Rooms are great especially if you get a sea view like we did. Nice food and drink available in beautiful surroundings. Great facilities and even a gym and sauna. Only downsides are it’s a bit of a steep climb getting back to the hotel but there is a lift, plus it’s good exercise! The pool doesn’t have enough sunbeds for all so unless you want to play reserve a bed at silly o’clock with your towel with the other entitled people, you’re much better off going to the nearest beach which is any easy 10 min walk and we always found beds, plus there are more places to eat and drink at the gorgeous beach.

The Hotel is a modern structure, well designed and organised, with confortable common spaces. Good breakfast. It is very clean. The personnel is very kind.
