Club Hotel Casino Loutraki
"Did not feel like a 5 star hotel. No normal greeting or help with luggage at arrival, hotel is a little worn, buffet at 25 Euro not worth it. Some of the fruit was canned and not fresh. Sunset was beautiful."

Aianteion Bay Luxury Hotel & Suites
"We had spent over a week in Athens and the Greek islands and this was the last night of our stay. We did not realize when trying to get a taxi that the hotel was on an island and not the main land, I guess that is partially our fault. When we got there they helped us check in and showed us our room. ..."
