Sofia Pension

What an exceptional host Sofia is , even before we got there for our stay she went out of her way to help us , our ferry crossing was cancelled because of bad weather and when we contacted her to tell her she rebooked our room for us with no problems whatsoever. The welcome you get when you arrive is warm and friendly and nothing seems to be much trouble for her , Sofia is a wonderful host . The hotel is ideally situated in the heart of the old town and an excellent base for exploring, it is close to many restaurants and sights . The rooms are warm and comfortable and the breakfast which is served on the terrace is amazing , lots of choice . This hotel is a little hidden gem and I would definitely stay here again .

This is a wonderfully homely hotel in an excellent location. The owner Sofia goes above and beyond to ensure all her guests are happy and feel like they are special. Her rooms are quaint but very clean with exceptionally comfortable beds. We were in room 4 which had a spacious en suite shower room and looked out onto a pretty terrace where breakfast was served. Sofia makes her own jams, marmalades and little Greek sweet cakes/breads. Breakfast comes with toast, Greek yoghurt, fresh fruit, boiled eggs, delicious feta cheese, honey, her homemade selections, tea, coffee, orange juice etc. Nothing is too much trouble. Room cleaning is daily with fresh towels and linen. Sofia and her daughter kindly printed documents we needed and arranged an electric cart free of charge to get as to the hotel when we arrived and again upon check out so that we didn't have to trawl our suitcases across the cobbled streets of the old town. Regular taxis and airport transfers are not allowed within the walls of the old town so they drop off and collect you at one of the many "gates". A magnificent stay at a comfortable, very reasonably priced hotel where you are treated with great attention and met with warm, genuine smiles each time you see Sofia, her daughter or staff. We plan to return in Spring 2024! Recommend you book direct on her website as she offers best price and you pay at the end of your stay.

Escape from the tourist crowd and the kitsch shops in this oasis of simple yet authentic and hospitable dwelling! Mrs Sofia will welcome you and treat you like family, expect a simple but really tasty and fresh breakfast on the terrace where the playful sparrows and the well maintained flowers and herbs will keep you company while you sip your Greek coffee. Rooms spacious, very clean, air conditioned and with strong WiFi.
