If you don't luxury hotel then expects the hotel is great.
We were very satisfied with the vacation but we heard, that some guests some complained about it. Who at the buffet always everything on a plate claps, it is clear, that you the food to 3 days no more not to see can.
The hotel's own restaurant, which the whole day is open, we can't recommend. But there are great restaurants in kriopigi and kalithea.
The beach is really a dream, that makes a lot which wasn't perfect again well done. read more

The hotel complex makes on the first glance a good impression. The gardens are well-kept and the entrance area is warm and inviting. However after closer look at clear, that the hotel already some years behind itself. It is run-down and has some major flaws and damage. The German quality standards it as four star hotel by far not enough. 2 stars we would at best recommend. The half board is worthwhile in this hotel not. The food is not only for breakfast, but also during dinner little varied and poor quality. It arouses the impression, that the hotel more ... on eastern and southern europe guests is adjusted. read more

The best week of my life!
Ok, i understand that this was my marriage, and it may sound normal and a little bit cliché to say something like that ,but on the other hand you know that the last few days before the wedding are very stressfull, and a lot of things, many many things,can make the bride nervous!!!
This didn' t happen to me ..Only good things happened and i must thank everybody in the hotel for that.
So,many thanks to everybody who made this possible :-) read more

The staff were unmotivated, we felt as a disruptive factor before.
12 days there was the 1 same sort of sausage and cheese for breakfast. Evenings no fetakäse to salad buffet. Somewhat Oleaginous the food, but apart from that enjoyed. The selection was evenings good.
On 13. Day gave it then on several types of cold cuts, rolls and evenings a plate of various cheeses (also Feta). We had the feeling 'everything must go outside' the hotel closes in one week.
In the morning 6:00 pitch, no path lighting to the street ( coach).
A beautiful sandy beach and ... a crystal clear water. read more

This year I was on the third time in this hotel and I am unfortunately somewhat disappointed. The last time I was 8 years ago there (was a great vacation) & it was since then my great wish to go again, but unfortunately was very much to the poor changed. The staff were mostly (except for a few exceptions) mostly very unfriendly to us. In the welcoming at the reception one came rather than annoying tourist, rather than the usual friendliness welcome to. Also the waiters/ indoor in the restaurant ran mostly with a mean view through the area and ... seemed rather annoyed. On the first evening we were not even served, since they are very overburdened were. The room was not great, but it was very ok. The evening entertainment looked in the hotel different from, every evening there was a other music night in the Kassandrabar specified, '80' s 90 's-in the evening, ' oldies night 'or' disco party' the music was mostly the same. Merely the Greek Dance evening, was the only, in the tavern has taken place (the a great Greek flair) the positive things are clearly the location of the hotel and the sea, a really beautiful beach with a heavenly sea, that's why you can with the details also an eye. For the positive things dominated, since we mostly at the beach anyway and in the evening with one/two cocktails were satisfied, but I think it was unfortunately, it so quality lost. read more

The condition our 1. room left much to be desired. Was booked view of the sea, which we had, but everything else was a disaster.
Before our door cavorted several Wasps under the ceiling. The door Locks gave the feeling, as would have here already a Einbruchversuch took place. The toilet was supposedly 'hygenic' cleaned, but pointed yellow marks on the glasses on.
As the electricity in the room with the room key to be considered must, was not the presence of the cold chain interrupted and thus thawed the fridge again and again from, leaked and the wooden panelling ... was moldy there.
After a complicated room changing ( only possible on the next day), we had a more acceptable room, unfortunately with not enough working air conditioning. On repeated requests at the front desk, told us, that it not a problem of the airconditioning ' in the room' is, he said much more, that the hotel was fully booked and the air conditioning therefore all be used. Adjusted to 0 °C supplied a cooling of 32 °C.
We have rarely seen such a unmotivated and unfriendly staff experienced, ' smile worked miracles '!
The food was one-sided and not really tasty. For 4 stars we expect what better.
By the pool there are free chairs and umbrellas, at the hotel a beach, you had to pay. It is the beach but also much cleaner than the pool(-area). read more

The hotel lies at a hillside with breathtaking views of the hotel's own sandy beach, the a steep staircase (140 steps) or a lift reachable is.
Outwardly very nice, well-kept complex with olives and limettenbäumchen, palm trees, etc.
This is divided into a five-storey main building with lobby, front desk and mini -supermarket ( entrance side) and several separate familienhäuser.
In a separate building is the restaurant roxani, in which breakfast and dinner take place, the bar Kassandra and a small aigner boutique.
The hotel offers however only half board, all inclusive is not offered!
About the guest structure you ... have to unfortunately say, that during our stay many eastern europeans anyway. The travel guide from mitreisenden could confirm, that the hotel in August primarily romanians, and in September of russians booked. Isolated also German couple respectively families met. Generally there were all age groups represented. read more

The location is great. The beach is in front of the hotel, but in close distance (10min with car) you can go to the some of the most beautiful beaches ever, with beach bars, watersports etc. The amenities of the hotel are good, the quality of food is good (considering the rate of the room). Staff is quite friendly and willing to hear and solve problems (minor things came up). read more

We were for the first time in the ' Alexader the great'! Although we because of the negative reviews with mixed feelings traveled, we loved it! Room was pleasant large and very clean(, although the bathroom once again renovation) and the food was really delicious! Unfortunately lacked in the dining room at cleanliness and the staff seemed rather frustrated (perhaps because of missing bad eating manners of the many East Europeans)! Somewhat disappointing was on the day of arrival also the service at the reception( had to our room and suitcase even carry there!). It is also unfortunately, that the ... staff only a little German spoke ( exception the very friendly Receptionist in the dining room). Beach and water are almost not to beat this place - a dream! Value for money is very good! We would definitely come again! read more

A beautiful beach hotel, less than an hour from Thessaloniki, with fantastic sea view and one of the best beaches (organized - blue flag) I ever visited, ideal for a weekend break or a long summer holiday. There are many things to do (water sports, mountain excursions etc). My kids were very enthusiastic with the pool (there are two) and the lift that takes you from pool level to the beach and vice versa. The personnel is very friendly, there were many facilities (beach bar, restaurant, mini market, cafe) and the service was at a high level. I strongly recommend ... it. read more

Overrated awfulness

The hotel is very run down with old and shabby furniture in both the bedrooms and private room. There is insufficent parking on site and late arrivals are required to park in an un secured field across the busy road - it would help a lot if bays were marked to stop inconsiderate/ incompetent parking where some cars take up 2 or even 3 spaces.
From the outside, the site is idyllic, with well maintained gardens, but inside needs a lot of work.
Wifi is only available in the hotel lobby, and as a resul;, all the sidelights and table ... lamps are unplugged so that visitors can use their laptops - this lobby is also stiflingly hot - with no airconditioning, and the problem isn't helped by the greenhouse tagged on to the rear.
The only saving grace is the beach, but the experience is spoilt by the fact that umbrella (which is tiny) and sunbeds have to be paid for. Guests also reserve the prime beds overnight.
For those who prefer to relax around the pool - there were only 5 sunbeds and a few tables and chairs available - not good read more

I would never ever come back to this hotel even if they paid me. simply it's not worth the money, let alone the 4 stars. There are not enough seats for the guests in the restaurant, so for dinner you have to wait in a queue read more

On the whole is Alexander the great definitely recommendable! The bathrooms of the hotel are however in need of renovation and the smaller rooms were to complain about. But one on vacation most time anyway not in the hotel room spends, should the no large point of criticism be. Especially the dreamlike beach and the turquoise sea felt especially convinced! Also the service staff and native were extremely friendly and helpful. The food was varied and delicious. In May respectively June there had already been about 30 °C and the water had a pleasant temperature. We spent a wonderful vacation ... and wished we could have stayed longer!-) read more
