Ξενοδοχεία με Ekklisia Agios Alexios, Patrai

This is a fantastic hotel on the pedestrian street in Patras. It is affiliated with the Byzantinos Hotel, which is more modern, but the Paleologos is built in an old building with an enormous staircase, high ceilings and the rooms have an antique feel to them. The breakfast is superb and the food/nightlife outside is quite awesome. We stayed over Carnival and had a blast. Worth every penny.

The hotel gave us room number 14 very small, feeling that the upstairs would be more comfortable, there is a balcony to see the exquisite outside. Going to the town, there is a similar Chinese restaurant, beef and potato soup, grilled prawns, and fried squid rings are very delicious. Prices are twice as expensive as domestic prices

We stayed here whilst visiting my brother who had been admitted to hospital in Patras. We were pleased with our choice. The hotel is well located next to a shingly beach with a good beach bar. The rooms are comfortable and clean and whilst dated, they do the job - hot water, air con and a fridge. The on site restaurant served delicious food at a reasonable price and all the staff were so helpful - booking taxis for us daily and towards the end of our stay, when my brother was released to our care, they found a room next to our own.

My review is based on the alleged 4* of the hotel. In my very personal opinion: Positives :-) _The hotel location with the view of the sea, the bridge of Rio-Antirio and the spectacular sunset · The staff at the dining room. Although they seemed disorganised and most of them untrained, they were really kind and helpful. Separate reference should be made to the lady in the reception as she was a gem. Professional, kind, resourceful, always with a smile. The playground for little children is new and in great condition. Negatives :-( *Definitely NOT a 4 star hotel * Definitely in need of radical renovations. * Not clean, certainly not to a 4 star hotel standards. The glass doors in the room were not cleaned, the mirror in the bathroom too and when the staff came to fix the extra bed and had to move the other beds we saw that the floor (plastic carpet) hasn’t been swept thoroughly most probably in years. The curtains in the dining room were also dirty. * The pool bar and surrounding area is a mess. The furniture are so used up that their colour has been altered completely. You can see garbage and debris at the corners of the hotel. The lawn is in a really bad condition. * The pool is cleaned daily but it's only open between 11:00-19:00. I am guessing this is the lifeguard's working hours.... While we were there, one of the lifeguards was never near the pool but in the pool bar browsing through their phone and nobody seemed to care. * The quality of the food is average, at best. A lot of low quality staff like jams, cakes etc *The corridors in the room floors need immediate paint refresher.

I honestly don't know where to start with this excellent little hotel. The rooms are nice and clean with highlights of the wall (in my own was the Isobe's myth with the rabbit and the turtle in English please). There was also a full kitchen if he had an appetite on his holidays to cook and endless closets everywhere. The staff from the owners to the last worker smiled nicely and responded immediately to whatever you ask. The breakfast is full of many options but even if you want something that is not enough to ask for, it has arrived immediately and with a smile. The high light is a fully equipped hall with furniture and too shadowy to drink coffee or have breakfast. The location is ideal for a bath since the beach of Psania is just over 1 square miles away. The port of Enetic is also not far away and is 5-10 a minute walk. I stayed 5 nights and I didn't regret a moment of choice. If my way to Naupakot again will take it again without second thought. Those who push the Navy, choose it and you will remember me.
