Needs updating! Arrived here to a friendly welcome from the lovely staff at reception. Booked a premium sea view room was clean and of a good size but with a small balcony. Bathroom was big but in need of a serious update, shower went all over the bathroom floor which seemed to stay wet!! We were on floor six and it absolutely stank the minute you walked in of cigarettes it was very off putting to two non smokers, not very pleasant at all. Food was average, could always find something but we found it wasn’t always warm not alone hot. This is not good practice in a buffet type situation ( or any good food setting!) Dining area was probably the worse I’ve ever been in, depressing miserable canteen style with the most miserable staff we’ve ever seen! Pushing a black trolley around and clearing plates and dumping food next to your table is awful and should really be addressed by the hotel. Pool staff friendly. Enough sun beds around pool area. Hotel needs seriously updating it is a beautiful location. Not much around area so you are sort of stuck there, it’s a 30 min drive from the craziness of Athens so good if you want to relax. Guests were mostly French. I don’t think we would return unless some serious renovation took place.
Άνετο ξενοδοχείο, όμορφα διακοσμημένο και με πολύ καλό πρωινό μπουφέ. Επίσης είναι οικονομικό και το προσωπικό του είναι έτοιμο να σε εξυπηρετήσει πάντοτε ευγένεια και καλοσύνη. Σίγουρα θα το επισκεφτώ ξανά.
First of all, it is important to distinguish this, Mati Hotel, from the nearly-adjacent Hotel Mati. We chose to stay here as a moderately-priced and relatively close alternative to the pricey hotels near Athens airport. The hotel is dated in many respects, including the absence of electronic room keys. Nothing else appears to have been updated in recent years. The hallways seemed to easily carry sound from one end to the other. The hotel’s website lists parking as “Free! Private parking is possible on site (reservation is not needed.” I suppose that is technically true, but there are only a very few spaces by the entrance, and as far as I can tell, the rest you must find along the streets of Mati. Breakfasts were fine, and the staff worked hard to keep refreshing its items. I mention working hard because there were at least two different tour bus groups that stayed overnight. I do not know if that is true during peak season, but in our case, it was hard to locate an available breakfast table. The staff was wonderful in showing us to one. We felt hotels closest to Athens airport were significantly overpriced for value received. More moderately-priced options were harder to find, and in that respect, Mati Hotel satisfactorily served its purpose, but one night was enough.
