Quaint, clean, beautiful room with flowered balcony and very kind and generous hosts. Rena and Theo go out of their way to make guests happy with their complimentary pick up and drop off to airport and Rena's home-made baked goods. They are both proud of the island and pr.ovide helpful tips about how best to enjoy it. the room was quiet and comfortable with impecably chosen decorations and a helpful refrigerator/dishes/cook top kitchenette. They even offer same day laundry service at a reasonable fee. When one dreams about a Greek island vacation, Pension Sofi is exactly what the dream entails.

A gem in the finding! Quiet boutique hotel with clean and comfortable rooms. Family owned. Be sure to slow down and spend time learning from the family and looking at their wealth of information in books and maps. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour of parts of the island (so much to see and learn) with Mr. Teo. Easy walk into Naxos town, the Apollo monument, bus station, and the port. Rapid responses via both email and WhatsApp. Highly recommend!!

Our stay at Pension Sofi was a highlight of our trip to Greece, and it was sad to leave their gracious hospitality and Rena's delicious baking. Her husband Theo picked us up at the airport and drove us back upon departure. We were greeted with warmth, cake, and abundant information to orient us and discover local highlights. Pension Sofi is beautifully and tastefully decorated, with careful attention to comfort down to the details of the lighting in each room. My adult son and I each had our own room, which were immaculate and reflect the pride this couple takes in a family owned business which was originally named after and run by the grandmother, Sofi. Through conversations with Rena and Theo, we learned interesting facts about living in Naxos, which enriched our experience. The place is conveniently located a short scenic walk to restaurants and stores, as well as the landmark Portara. I understand why other reviewers mention multiple stays at Pension Sofi, and I hope to be one of them.

We have just spent a week at Sofi Pension in Naxos Town and absolutely loved our stay! It is family-run and Rena and her family couldn’t have been more welcoming or helpful. We were collected at the port and driven the short distance to the pension where Rena welcomed us with a drink in the breakfast room — a lovely touch. Our studio was not only beautifully presented but also incredibly comfortable (what a bed: wow). Lovely balcony, useful kitchenette, dining area, stylish and very functional bathroom and plenty of space and light. Town was a quick walk (five mins to centre and fifteen to the beach) and there is a good supermarket nearby. We were able to rent a car from the pension too, which was great for exploring the island. And last but not least, each day we were served a delicious breakfast (yoghurt, fruit, bread, cheese pastries, cake, etc). Would absolutely return as we so enjoyed our stay. Oh and visit Ammos Restaurant too at the seafront by the port — superb! A really wonderful pension and perfectly placed to enjoy all of the island. Thank you so much!

The best accommodation in Naxos ! Beautiful couple who own the hotel go out of their way to help you. Fantastic breakfast, picked us up from the ferry and took us to the airport free of charge. Great views of the old castle, only 5 minutes walk to the old city but very quiet location. Outstanding

I chose this hotel because of the excellent reviews but the expérience was rather disapointing. The +: location a bit out of the crowded area but easy walking distance from port and Hora. Good bedding and air condition. Parking down the hotel. The -: Small room with old deco, cramped with a useless oversized fridge, very small bathroom with tiny shower and plastic curtains that sticks to your body, toilet cramped between wall and shower...no space to move at all. Tiny balcony (you have to hold the table and chairs to close or open the shutters) with view on the kastro, but also on the Central Parking.. As for breakfast, it was far from the lovely breakfasts we have had everywhere else (in same category hotels): tasteless coffee, no juice, no ham, no cheese, no fruit salad, no yoghurt and honey... Only 1 or 2 slices of bread and small butter everyday, + a piece of cake on day 1, or + 1 boiled egg and 1 apple on day 2, or + 1 small waffle with a sliced banana on day 3... . Welcome was nice, but pick up at port or airport is provided everywhere by hotels on the islands, so we found it pleasant but expected. Important to know (we found it when we arrived): Reception is open only a few hours a day, otherwise locked and closed. So maybe it was bad luck ...but we were very disapointed.

Response from Koufopoulou eirini, Ιδιοκτήτης at Pension Sofi
Responded Oct 21, 2022
Dear Costumer,i am very disapointed for your review too.You mention as important information that you found us when you arrived.September is a very busy month,all the rooms are booked in advance, a long time ago.I am really not sure if you stayed with us or in neighborhood hotels that i usually suggest.In any case why did you stay if you didnot like the room?Regarding breakfast,we arenot a hotel and nowhere is listed that we provide breakfast.All the mentions and amazing compliments about it are from my lovely guests.They enjoy our variety of homemade cakes and marmelades.It is complimentary,like a treat and we never charge for it. And last, my reception is open from 8:30-14:00 and then 18:00-20:30,i am sorry but it isnot few hours. For your own best i would advise you not to travel on the islands with no booking in advance special the busy months. We would be happy to see you again in better conditions.All the best!

One of the most difficult parts of travelling is finding the right place to stay. Location, cleanliness and hospitality are very important to us. Pension Sofi ticks ALL the boxes! This was our 3rd stay at Pension Sofi and it never disappoints. It is a small family pension run by Rena, her husband Thodoris, and daughter Sofi. Their mission is to ensure that you have a relaxing and comfortable stay during your visit to Naxos and they succeed in every way. The pension is approximately a 10 min walk to the port and all the restaurants. Thodoris picked us up at the port on arrival. We received a warm welcome and were treated to a cold drink and a snack of delicious homemade cheesecake made by Sofi. The rooms are a good size, nicely decorated, exceptionally clean with a comfortable bed. The rainforest shower in the bathroom is the best one we've had yet in Greece! There is a small balcony (for rooms on the second floor) and this is where we sat with coffee each morning. Rena and Sofi serve a light complimentary breakfast - coffee and usually a sweet bread, fresh bread with marmalade or waffles along with fruit- a perfect way to start your day! We cannot stress enough about how personable and helpful Rena and her family are - they are genuinely interested in getting to know their guests and ensuring all aspects of their stay are comfortable. Their hospitality is warm and wonderful. They are indeed perfect hosts! We will always stay at Pension Sofi when in Naxos and would highly recommend it!

What a wonderful place. From the day you arrive you are treated as part of the family. Rena and her family are so warm and hospitable and go out of their way to help with anything and everything. The complimentary breakfasts are fabulous and the rooms are so clean, welcoming and comfortable. We cannot wait to return to this wonderful place, Thank you so much for such a great holiday Rena and family!! My daughter and I loved every minute of our stay at Pension Sofi.

Rena and her family treated us very nice. Her husband picked us up from the port even though our ferry was delayed for more than half an hour after 6pm, and she welcomed us warmly with delicious sweets she made herself and water (what we needed the most after the travel). The room is cute and gorgeous. At first we were told there wasn't double bed for us. But Rena still arranged one for us on the day when we arrived. She also kindly helped us rent a scooter, and guided us where to go. We tried all three restaurants she recommended, and all of them were good. Rena also helped us make a reservation of the seafood one. We stayed for two nights, and enjoyed two lovely breakfasts in our beautiful balcony. The homemade food from Rena's family is really delicious. Rena's husband even gave us another ride to the airport when we left because they had other customers landed at the same time, which was very sweet as well. Highly recommended!!

Book now! Do not hesitate one bit. Rena and her husband are amazing. She contacted me right away after my booking and made us feel at home ! They picked us up from the ferry, arranged a rental car, served us an amazing breakfast daily, answered any and all questions about the island, and gave all of their favorite suggestions. You truly couldn’t ask for better hosts. The inn is quaint and historically beautiful. The room was great for two people and the balcony was an added bonus. The furnishings were perfect and the bed was comfortable. There is a sink, refrigerator, silverware… etc. inside the room as well. The walk into town, the market, restaurants, beach, ferry, and shops were quick as they are all easily accessible. Enjoy your stay!
