This is definitely not a 4-Star Hotel and no where close to a 4-Star Hotel. Do not be fooled by the photos because the reality is very different.
The rooms are cheap and the bathrooms are old and not in proper working order. The mattresses are the cheapest mattresses I have ever slept on and are extremely uncomfortable. The towels provided are old and the maids did not clean my room for most of my stay.
The receptionists are unable to speak any English and also, in my case, made a mistake that cost me money. I was left stranded without any transport at 5am in the morning because the receptionist said he would book a bus-transfer to take me back to the airport and it turned out this was not true.
They do not even have plug adapters for people travelling from the UK, something even the 3-Star Hotel next door had (Paralia Hotel).
If you have absolutely no choice but to visit Chalkida, I would go to the Paralia Hotel because the service is much better. Otherwise, I would suggest you go to a more touristic place in Greece where standards may be higher.
Also, note that the beaches in the area are not clean and there is a lot of junk that is thrown in them (mattresses, bottles and other left-overs). If you are looking for clean and decent beaches you should...
Read moreWe recently stayed at Lucy Hotel in Chalkida and had an overall pleasant experience. The hotel is on the waterfront, surrounded by numerous restaurants and bars, making it an ideal spot for exploring the vibrant local scene.
Our room, while not offering a bay view, was free from the noise of the bustling promenade. The rooms have been refurbished. I personally found the mattress uncomfortable, but that’s just my personal preference.
The staff provided excellent service throughout our stay. Thank you Alexandra ! Breakfast was good, offering a decent variety, though not exceptional. The view is beautiful. Dinner, included in our half-board plan, was a highlight. Served at the table (not buffet-style), our fish dishes were tasty and accompanied by a glass of wine, and our waitress was both attentive and friendly. The restaurant's view over the Euripus Strait added to the dining experience.
The hotel doesn't offer free parking, there is a paid parking lot available that we ended up not using since we easily found a free parking spot nearby.
Lucy Hotel offers a great location for those who like lively nightlife , commendable service, and comfortable...
Read moreOur planned trip to Tinos was cancelled due to high winds & ferry cancellations, so opted to spend 3 nights here. About a 75min comfortable train trip from Athens. Hotel is an easy 5 minute walk from Chalcis Station.||We had a seafront room ( 413 ). Basic room, but spacious, clean, good air conditioning with a small balcony and beautiful views of the harbour. A very good buffet breakfast was included in our tariff. The hotel has a restaurant, however we opted to eat in one of the many dining options along the waterfront. Staff at this hotel spoke English and were very friendly & helpful.||We had never heard of or considered going to Chalcis or the Evoia area of Greece. What a pleasant surprise and what a delightful area to visit & stay. Lots to see & do. The Lucy Hotel is a great base to explore from….great location just over the old draw bridge right on the waterfront.||Seems like it’s also a very popular holiday spot for Greeks. Unlike the islands, lots of Greek families here.||We will be back for sure, next time we...
