Pefkos, Amphitriti Hotel Review

Overall Rating

The hotel was in a lovely location near the beach with a short walk to the small town and only a 5 minute taxi ride away to the main town. Nice pool area and clean rooms.

The staff were not friendly at all, in fact, the lady was rude, never a smile on her face, no customer care knowledge and certainly not a clue how to treat the holiday makers. My friend came for lunch, and left keeling over in pain with salmonella poisoning, which when I approached her with this, she accused me of being a liar, also adding it was my friend's fault for choosing what he chose. We were very shocked by her manners.

Pefkos, Amphitriti Hotel - The accomodation was good, cleaners everyday, decent size rooms. We were, however, facing a building site, which certainly was not the best view and the noise was not very pleasent when we where in our rooms, but we stayed out most of the time. The power was also cut off at one point for half the day, which I presume was due to the building. The pool was decent, normal size, a lot of chlorine and very cloudy which was a shame. The pool bar area was handy for snacks and drinks, slightly over-priced however, service abysmal. Basically, the rudness and lack of service from the staff was the only bad point of our holiday and put a dampener of it. I would not return to this accomodation, but the town was great. When people work in the holiday business they should learn how to treat their customers. Everyone else on the island were so courteous and polite.

  You were unlucky this year as the building work was not there last year, this year we didn’t hear a thing from the building site, having been there 2 years running and booked for 2005 I cant see what this person is moaning about, the hotel is excellent and the staff are very friendly and like having a laugh, don’t be put off with this persons comments, I highly recommended it and I reckon 99.9 percent of other people who have stayed there would as well. also salmonella would not hit you that quick, the food I ate was perfect, take that from a ex chef.

  i have stayed at the amphitriti once before and am returning this year.the people who own and run this place are very friendly and helpful,the food and the bar area were first class so i would also recommend not taking too much notice of the review.

  Just returned yesterday and felt had to comment on this review as couldnt't believe what I read. The hotel is fantastic, so clean and the family, bar staff (esp. Kostas!) and cleaners were all lovely. They also put on entertainment - greek night and toga party which were fab, everyone ends up in pool at end of night! No building work there this year. The hotel made our holiday and we met people there who return year after year so cant be that bad. I will definitely return to Pefkos and the hotel hopefully very soon.

  I've literally returned from Rhodes in the last couple of days having stayed at Amphitriti. I thought compelled to add my comments on reading this review.
  
  Its the second time Ive been to Amphitriti and I think the place and the people are fantastic. Katerina and Eric who run Amphititri certainly do know how to treat guests and as we regularly ate there during the day I can say the food was good.
  
  The place is convenient for the beach, if you ever make it there, because we couldnt get our kids away from the pool, which was certainly not cloudy. In fact they have a pool cleaner who comes every night to ensure the pool is ready for the next days fun and frivolity.

  I can't believe how much this person has critised the Amphtriti. It was the best holiday i have ever been on, my boyfriend and i went on a last minute holiday which was allocated on arrival so we were a bit nervous about the accommodation. But when we got there we couldn't believe it, the hotel was fabulous, rooms cleaned everyday, staff are VERY friendly, the beach is just a two minute walk and the town is just a 5 minute walk, with an abundance of bars and restaurants. I would recommend this hotel to couples and families who are looking for a relaxing holiday in a friendly atmosphere.

  Can't believe what I just read on the Amphitriti, we stayed in May 2005 both my husband and myself thought the service was second to none, they were all very friendly and the food was very good. We have in fact booked to go back in September 2006.
