Neon Hotel

Neon Hotel, Stalis 23/9/23 to 7/10/23 We chose this hotel when booking due to its proximity to a sandy beach, plus restaurants and shops nearby. We were not disappointed. It is a family run hotel and they are lovely. The two people we interacted with the most were Aristea (who runs reception) and Maria (who runs the bar). Dad, mum and brother were also present but we didn’t interact with them much. Aristea and Maria are lovely and would do anything to help you.  We asked for sea view rooms once we arrived, and they were able to accommodate us, which was lovely. As it was very hot at the start of the holiday, we were able to sleep with the balcony doors open at night, listening to the waves, which was incredibly relaxing. We did request aircon later on, also supplied no problem.  Although the hotel is right on the road, being at the back we didn’t hear any road noise. Also, we did not hear any noise from the surrounding bars and restaurants which was very peaceful. We spent a lot of time around the pool, which was lovely and also not busy. We did venture on to the sandy beach which was quite narrow but clean. The sea was really calm to start with and so warm and clear. The beach directly in front of the hotel didn’t have sunbeds which was nice. Either side did. To the left they charged 6 euros for 2 (I believe, we didn’t use them) but to the right were more expensive in front of Alexandra hotel. Maria kept us entertained at the bar, which we frequented often. Well it’s 5 o’clock somewhere! She was so lovely. We did sometimes have lunch there which was very reasonable and filling. We usually shared a club sandwich and Greek salad (approx. 12 euros) and cocktails (5-7 euros) or Mythos bear (3euros). Our daughter joined us for the 2nd week and the family were so lovely to her as well. Our rooms were cleaned daily and fresh towels and bedding every other day. You really couldn’t ask for more. Breakfast was continental style and more than adequate, with cereals, toast, eggs, old meat, croissants, fresh fruit, tea, coffee and juice all in plentiful supply. All in all we had a lovely holiday and the family were wonderful.  Thoroughly recommend.
