PILOT AMPHORA BOUTIQUE HOTEL

Chose Pilot Amphora for our honeymoon and we are not disappointed!! Arrived very late (or extremely early depending on your definition of 1.30am!) we were greeted by a lively gentleman on arrival who showed us directly to our room and then brought sandwiches and cold water. Beautiful flowers and champagne in our room on arrival too! Had a lovely breakfast this morning....beautiful selection of hot and cold items plus eggs made to order. So pleased we chose Pilot Amphora for our honeymoon.

An amazing week in this beautiful small hotel. It is immaculately clean. We arrived at 1.30am and were welcomed and taken to our room and given food and sandwiches. We had a suite with a private pool which was lovely. The food and service are exceptional. The manager and his team are so attentive and give such a personal service. It's a little quiet oasis but close to the local amenities and buzz. We had half board with a 5 course À la carte dinner. There are also wonderful local tavernas. Portions are huge in tavernas. You can also get a transfer to the larger resort which is lovely. Couldn't fault a thing. We didn't want to leave!

This hotel has far exceeded our expectations. The hotel is very modern with everything you require. The rooms are a good size with good air conditioning, fridge, large tv, bathroom has good shower and light up magnifying mirror, the maids clean once a day leaving a bottle of water each time. The food and drink are really good, we stayed half board and the evening meals were exceptional, sometimes the 5 courses was too much. During our stay we celebrated our anniversary and management kindly supplied cake and a bottle of sparkling wine this was very much appreciated also add there was a few shots of raki after an evening meal as well. The pool area is a very chilled out space to relax, depending on the time of day there's space in the sunshine or shade if required . We also visited the beach where you can walk for at least an hour along the sand (some small amounts of seaweed and stones). The title said the best thing about this holiday is the hotel staff, they work so hard , always happy to help make your holiday memories the best possible.

I would highly recommend staying at this lovely boutique hotel if you are looking for peace and relaxation. The service, cleanliness and food has been impeccable. From check in to check out we have been throughly looked after by the team of staff would work extremely hard to make you feel welcome. We only took breakfast as the five courses over two weeks would have been too much. However other guest highly recommended it to us. You have the transfer service to the Pilot Beach hotel if you prefer a day on the beach and can use all the facilities of pools, gym, restaurants and entertainment if you require a different environment, it's a five minute journey to the end of the beautiful village of Georgioupolis. We have travelled extensively. the plus for us was that we were in a lovely peaceful hotel if you needed a quite relaxing day, however you could walk 100 meters and be in the centre of the village with shops bars and Taverners, also a lovely sandy beach and little marina. The hotel is adult only, we did spend a little time at the Pilot Beach and thought how lovely both the hotel and private beach was for families. We would definitely return which is not something we would usually do.

We have just returned from a 9 night stay at Pilot Amphora. It is a real gem, run by the wonderful Panos and his team. The hotel is modern and clean and maintained to a high standard. We were on a half board package. The food was excellent with an amazing fresh spread at breakfast and high quality 5 course meals in the evening. There was a lovely peaceful atmosphere around the pool area, which had plenty comfortable loungers and seating. Highly recommend.

This was my first time in Greece and this place met all my expectations. Very peaceful and relaxed atmosphere. Catered to all my needs. Modern and clean rooms, clean gym, pools and enough loungers. Great breakfast and fine dining dinner. We also had access to their sister hotel which is a big resort where we had access to their private beach, spa, entertainment and restaurants on site. The team here were lovely and did everything to cater to us. I notified them about my late transfer on my final day and the manager offered us a late check out free of charge! This is definitely a repeat destination and will be back when I next get the chance! Highly recommend.

We are an active couple in our early seventies. We stayed at this hotel for 11 nights. The location was great. On arrival we were not offered a welcome drink. We were asked to download the hotel app. I can do this but need more time than a younger person. It was explained that we needed to book our dinner time choice each evening using this app. When I got the app sorted it was all in German which I don’t understand so I found booking dinner difficult. Several days later a young member of the staff helped out and I got the app in English which helped a lot! On our first evening we went to the bar for a drink before dinner but were asked to go straight to our table and then given the menus. We would have preferred a drink first but went with the flow. We did not try and go for a drink before dinner again as it seemed not acceptable in this hotel. Our room had the noise and smell of the kitchen extractor fan outside it. Every morning about 5.30am I was woken up by the fan beginning its work for the day. That was accompanied by the smell of food cooking most of the day. Our room was definitely not soundproof. There was no inside lounge area in the hotel with comfy seating to sit inside and read a book or simply relax, and avoid the rain on the inclement days of which there were several. Breakfast was very good. Excellent coffee although they were unable to make cappuccino with lactose free milk for some reason I never understood. We had booked half board - I wish we hadn’t. Much nicer food in the many tavernas in Georgioupoli. We ate out several evenings. No hooks in the bathroom. The only shelf in the shower was too far away from the shower to be of any use. The lighting was very dim although the shower itself was very efficient. This is not a five star hotel. We were very disappointed. Georgioupoli is a lovely place which I would visit again but I won’t stay in this hotel.
