Amphitryon City Hotel

"Centrally located for access to the old town and the new the hotel is perfect. The rooms are spotless and comfortable The restaurant is modern and looks onto the recently renovated pool area. But it’s the staff , from the tireless and ever cheerful and helpful Sophia the housekeeper who did a fab job of looking after us to the fantastic hospitality team in the restaurant and bar. No praise is too high for maitre d’ Manolis ( a true wine connoisseur and expert) and his team. They looked after us so well we felt like family after a couple of days . From young Manolis and his beaming smile to Panos and his fantastic cocktails and service . Cornelia and Valentina and the waitresses, all were absolutely fantastic. They work like clockwork and we will miss them . The reception staff were all lovely too . Kudos to the kitchen staff who never disappointed with lovely salads and desserts everyday. I even got cake and fizz! It may seem effusive but they really made our holiday . I’ve never had such great service in 4 &5 star hotels . We will be back ."

"We stayed here for a week, end of September 26 and on the whole enjoyed our stay. Our room and the hotel was clean and in a reasonable condition. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The cleaning team and bar/restaurant staff were lovely. Breakfast was very good with plenty of options. The location was excellent, just a few minutes walk to gate d'Amboise and the old town. There are plenty of restaurants within a few minutes walk. On the minus side we had one of the smaller corner rooms which in itself isn't an issue as we don't spend a lot of time in the room. The issue for us was the shower which was the smallest we have ever seen. The shower tray was miniscule and had a full length shower curtain which stuck to you making having a shower very difficult. The water drained away very slowly which meant the bathroom became very wet and we had to use towels to mop up the water. There was also on occasion a slight drain smell. We would vonsider going back but only if we had a larger room/ shower"

"We had a fabulous week at the Amphitryon City Hotel. But please just manage your expectations, this is not a luxury hotel but it is amazing value. This is what you'll get: - Wonderful friendly staff who go above and beyond; - A decent sized pool for somewhere so close to the city centre, and a pool bar that charges reasonable prices; - Great food, the breakfast buffet was fabulous every morning and (although I am a sceptic about meals in in hotels) the meals at night were also really good and excellent value at only €18 per head; - Fantastic cleanliness and the communal areas are well appointed; - An amazing location just minutes walk from the harbour, old town and all the bars and restaurants in new town; But bear in mind how much you're paying so: - The standard rooms are fairly spartan, there's a wardrobe but no drawers, but the beds are good; - Bathrooms in standard rooms are not luxurious, the shower is an open area but it's powerful and hot; - The lift is, well, an experience; - There can be a shortage of poolside loungers at certain times of the day, there just isn't the space for any more. Overall, I thoroughly recommend this hotel and will return very soon."
