Pension Sofia

Beautiful, spacious room , great bathroom and shower .Beautiful big garden, big balcony. Its very close to the port and old town , Sofia is an amazing and helpful host.she can help you hire a car ,parking space is available next to the house. Highly recommended!

I am conflicted about my stay here. On the plus side: very beautiful property. Very close to the Port of Parikia. Quiet and peaceful surroundings. Great price. Clean room. Loved the balcony. One the minus side: overall I found the customer service somewhat disorganized, poor, and lacking warmth. My sister had weird issues upon check-in: her reservation (the host showed no record of her reservation upon arrival?), the room size she paid for was not the room she got, and her room had no power at all when she checked in. We had to search for and flag down a man (presumably the host's husband?) in order to flip the breaker to get the power to come back on. There are no signs with information on how things in the room work (such as the power/light switch, the AC, and the shower, which were quite tricky - at least for me and the guest across the hall, too) and the hostess became quite hostile when she had to come to my room one night at 10pm to help me with the AC to get it to work. At that moment, I wanted to pack up and leave and go to another hotel. It seemed as if something was wrong (outside of the B&B) that was affecting her ability to be happy, warm, and welcoming with her guests. I also got the distinct feeling (from older reviews) that this accommodation used to be a lot more customer-friendly in their offerings (such as breakfast, and rides to/from the port, etc) and now, once you check in, you are basically on your own. I usually have such wonderful connections with my hosts, and this experience just left me feeling very flat, cold, and a bit sad. I avoided her as much as possible after the AC incident because I was so uncomfortable around her. In summary, with improvements to customer service, Pension Sofia could be such a heavenly place to stay. However, as it is, while I would go back to Paros in a heartbeat, I would definitely choose another accommodation for my stay. I have enjoyed so many amazing and kind hosts around the world (including other Greek islands), but this experience definitely fell short, and sadly, I would not recommend this accommodation experience for your stay in Paros.

Run by a delightful family who couldn’t do enough for us. Everything was superb. Teo collected us from the port and gave us such a lot of useful information. He also too is to the hospital when we needed help. Rena and Sofi made wonderful breakfasts, different every day.

When preparing the trip of my daughter and I, I have tried to book two nights directly on this pension website this summer but never received any confirmation. Without any confirmation I booked somewhere else. The night before the initial date, staying at another pension in another island, I received a call of the pension. I have made very clear that I never got any confirmation of my booking but the pension nevertheless charged me. I have contacted the online booking service the pension uses and no one answered my mail. You will agree that it doesn't make any sens for us to book, and pay, several rooms at different places the same time. Should I have received an email confirmation or any written communication I would have made may arrangements differently. Despite several calls and emails with the Sofia owner I was fully charged. I have no idea what went wrong in the process, all i can say is be careful. For my own part I think it is a shame.

We fell in love immediately walking up to this place. Very good location, friendly staff and beautiful landscape. Perfect for our time on Paros and added to our experience on this lovely island. The moonflowers and animals were an added bonus.

Pension de famille dans une jolie maison avec un jardin très bien entretenu a quelques pas de la mer. Très bon accueil en français. On se sent comme chez ses grands-parents ! Chaque chambre a sa terrasse. C'est très calme. La literie n'est pas aux dernières normes mais vu la prix il n'y a rien a redire. Pas de petit déjeuner mais plusieurs options dans le quartier.

Apres avoir passé une nuit dans un "hotel" digne du routard des annees 70 dont nous tairons le nom nous avons pu passer deux nuits a la pension Sofia.Tout simplement parfait. Une hôtesse charmante, une chambre très agréable et très confortable donnant sur le jardin, une literie confortable. Une propreté irréprochable. L adresse à ne pas manquer à Piriaki. ,

Ein bezaubernder Garten mit vielen Sitzgelegenheiten erwartet den Besucher als erstes. Man ist erstaunt über den grünen Rasen, die gepflegten Bäume und die prächtigen Blumen, das übertrifft jede Erwartung! Wenn man seine Ruhe möchte, braucht man hier gar nicht vom Grundstück gehen, es ist alles da, besonders für's Auge! Die Zimmer sind blitzsauber, gepflegt und liebevoll gestaltet. Die Anlage ist überschaubar und familiär, es gibt ca. 12 Zimmer. Sophia und Manolis, die Besitzer bzw. Vermieter sind über alle Maßen hilfsbereit, freundlich und immer zu erreichen, wenn man Fragen hat. Ich war mit einer Freundin schon viele Male dort und kann die Pension aus vollem Herzen empfehlen.

C’est avec un immense bonheur que nous avons retrouvé Sofia et Manolis, toujours aussi gentils et disponibles pour leurs hôtes. L’établissement est un véritable havre de paix avec le magnifique jardin entretenu avec amour par Manolis, les chambres très propres et confortables. Sofia vous met tout de suite à l’aise, ce qui fait que vous avez l’impression d’être « comme à la maison »! Le petit déjeuner est d’ailleurs maison (cake, petit friand, jus d’orange frais pressé..). A 5 mn du centre ville et à 2 mn de la mer c’est l’endroit idéal pour un séjour détendu et réussi à Parikia.
