The manager of the hotel is very choleric and unfriendly. Some of the staff are unfriendly. The hotel location is simply great, right by the sea. Breakfast is not varied, the same every day. If you want something different, you have to pay and that is not cheap.

First, Dafni Hotel is not a hotel, but a self-catering rooms facility.
You will get a room with a kitchen, a bed and some furniture.
And a...terrace facing the sea, through Dafni Hotels beach-bar.
Really nice to relax, in the night and see the ships passing by.
Mrs. Dafni is a pleasant madame and if not in the lobby, she´s present in the hotel area.
Cleaning is sufficient and the cleaning lady is a pleasnat girl, too.
Try the beach bar, they make excellent drinks. A bit expensive though.
My only complain about Dafni Hotel is the stray cats, which are very pushy.

Hotel dafni is in a great location as it is walking distance from the main town. The rooms were very basic however very clean and the bar staff were great. Dafni herself though is a very different story; firstly, this is not a hotel and by no stretch of the imagination is it a 4 star. She is rude, unhelpful and clueless, I could run a hotel better than that. She didn't know what to do whenever we had a problem and she requested that the bill be paid in cash, it is the 21st century, who doesn't have a functioning card machine and who expects someone to walk around with that amount of money on them. Overall, the beach, location and bar staff were nice, the rooms were basic and dafni doesn't have a bloody clue, management she is not. I won't be coming back.

When we arrive at hotels, we are met with the fact that we have to pay with cash, when asked if we can pay by card, we just wave our hands and say cash. The room is not completely clean when we arrive, lots of insects that are all over the walls. We ordered a sea view on the 2nd floor + balcony, we didn't get this.
Cleanliness and hygiene: the floor was never washed in the week we were there and no change of bed/linen.
Manager (Dafni) not very nice and is difficult to get in touch with as she is never at reception or elsewhere to find. Staff in the bar (young girl) very rude and rude, she puts on a smile every now and then and then turns around and has an expression as if this is the worst thing she could do. Also very difficult to communicate with.

Our air conditioning lacked water in the first few days, did not report in until day 3 when there was no staff to find. When someone first came they said it would be fixed on day 4, nothing happened until the day we left.

On the last day, we sat down at the bar and ordered a smoothie, then were told that we had to move for others who came to order as we couldn't "keep" a table. Seems very illogical as you can sit here as long as you order.

See and talk to several people who have experienced the same thing.

Incredibly bad experience, will not return here...

The sea view restaurant is nice but the service is awful.
20 minutes to serve two cocktails and after over AN HOUR and ten waiting for a porck survlaki and a club sandwich we had to leave. There were only two tables in the room (one was ours). We were simply told that the other table (seated after ours) had ordered many dishes....
Very bad experience.
Really not recommended!

Thank you for commenting so we can respond to you publicly. Βefore sitting down the waitress asked you if you are for food or drinks.Υou replied that you are only for drinks and she put you at a table that is for drinks and not for food.Your drinks came as soon as you ordered them.After some time you decided that you finally want to eat and they informed you that your order will be very late. They asked you if you are sure and you said yes.So your review is invalid because while you were informed you decided on your own that you wanted to wait.We respect the opinion of all customers as long as it is based on the truth.

Terrible, rude owner traveled for 40 years never experienced such bad hotel and (no) service. Started at check-in grumpy. Poor cleaning. If there was a storm, it rained, she mentioned it ... she said it was due to the air conditioning, we had water in the whole room, the cleaning put a tub there, so ... choose any hotel, nothing can be worse.

Visited here service appalling and over an hour’s wait for food. Staff unfriendly and rude, seems to be a family run bar and accommodation . Was left feeling uncomfortable after viewing male staff/family members stood gesturing and commenting about young women on the beach they were viewing . Would not recommend to anyone. Totally unprofessional.
