If you are traveling with kids, this is not the place for you. They moved us to an apartment building which looked like a haunted house 2 blocks away. There was no light in the hallway, no security. The fridge made a loud noise the entire night and the rooms were nothing close to the pictures advertised on Expedia. Stay away!

Excellent location, reight next to Subrail, Train, Bus and Taxi. Perfect for our various planned tours. Great staff, always on hand 24/7 - very helpful, clear systems checking in and very simple. Room cleaning service was outstanting, thank you. We stayed in an apartment which was 2 blocks up from main hotel and included residential - lovely little apartment though our view in the mornings from our kitchen and balcony to the right where off the adjoining hotel roof which is redundant and used as a old rubbish store - not a nice view eaxh morning and if this was taken away would make a huge difference to our stay. Loved the location for access to stores, cafe, restauarants and gym.

The staff were kind and went out of their way to be so helpful. I can’t even describe how above and beyond they went. The area isn’t terrible, albeit kind of out of the way from the main gardens and you might pass through some sketchy areas, but not the hotels fault for that and honestly, the staff make it worth it.

The room and hotel itself was nice. The location and noise were not. It’s on the corner of a busy and loud road, and because there’s only five floors you’ll most likely hear the cars at night unless you’re on the inside rooms. I was originally on the first floor and literally couldn’t sleep and they kindly moved me to the third floor, although it was barely any better I appreciated the accommodation.

The hotel is in excellent location for the Meteora trip - 2 minutes walk. However, during hot weather it can be uncomfortable to spend first hour upon staying in the room. It might be typical in Greece to cut the AC while you are not in the room, but here it can be really hot if your room faces west. When we arrived, the temperature in the room was +39C (102F), +33C (92F) outside. The AC will start only when you lock the door from inside. It takes about an hour to bring it to 30c (85F). It will blow continuously all night and you’ll wake up to 25C (77F), which was fine. During cooler month it is a better option. The staff is nice.

Location is good as it is steps from Larissa train station. When we checked in, we realised there was no water supply to the building due to a water main break in the area. The water was not restored until late in the evening. Problem is the hotel didn't have its own water storage tank.

I only booked for one night because I was coming back from a meteora tour late at night. The showerhead is in the middle of the bathtub. Strange to me. Good for one night but not more than that. Right next to the Larissa station.
