My wife, my baby daughter and I stayed in Filoxenia Hotel for 5 nights. ||The good: The room was clean and spacious enough for us and our baby girl's crib. We also had hot water and free Wi-Fi, which is not a given, when one stays in one-star hotels. The view from our room (128) was good and it was quiet, despite the very windy weather. The hotel is located 1 minute away from the central square of Chios, one minute from the pedestrian zone and one minute from the popular seaside cafe-bars and restaurants.The best part was Ioanna and Eftihia (the girls at the reception), who were very freindly and helpful and accomodated all of our needs!||The not so good: The rparking of our car, was a bit of a problem, but we managed. We used the non-parking pavement right outside the hotel for our short stops and the free municipal parking (400m away) for the overnight parking. Also the stairs were a bit tiresome to climb, especially since I had to carry our baby girl and all of her belongings :D. ||Overall, it was a great stay and we would recommend it to travellers who need a simple room to stay, right at the center of the...

Read moreThe location is fantastic, just steps away from everything you might need! The rooms are compact but spotlessly clean, making for a comfortable stay. One downside is that the hotel is unstaffed after 11:00 PM, which can be inconvenient if you need assistance late at night. That said, the reception team truly impressed me, especially the young man who’s always smiling. He treats every guest with such genuine care and professionalism that it feels like he owns the place. His attitude made a real difference and added a personal touch to my stay.
While the staff clearly do their absolute best and go above and beyond for the guests, the building itself could definitely benefit from some renovation. With a bit of updating, this hotel has the potential to be truly...
