Kallisti Hotel

Stayed in Kallisti Hotel for 6 relaxing nights and very happy with the choice we made. The hotel is located just outside the crowded and noisy Potos, up on a hill, with a good access way (which only needs a bit of touch and rework on the first 10-15 m from the main road). Surrounded by olive trees, its uphill position gives the guests a beautiful overview over the Potos’ bay, and a magnificent view of the sunset, then of the Potos & Limenaria night lights. You can hear the city’s nightclubs in the distance, but they are not disturbant at all... The rooms are large, with panoramic huge windows, immense balconies, well cleaned and maintained interior equipment. The pictures on the website are real and the rooms are just as we saw them on the site. Therefore, i will only focus on what is not on the website. The rooms are protected by insect protection nets on all doors and windows except the main entry. We have had a couple of mosquitos in the room though (1-2 at a time), i assume they came in during the cleaning, or when the kids went in & out from the balcony. No bees or wasps though, or any other kind of insects. Any minor disturbance in the room was addressed immediately, making the stay here comfortable, pleasant and enjoyable. The hotel’s pool is beautiful, not very very big, not deep (only 1.2m), yet kind of cold even during the hot August days. The ACs were working perfecly, making the sleep possible in the afternoon hours (when the sun reached the balcony & windows side) when the car thermometer was reading 38 C, or at night when we had 30 C.... But the AC works only with the smartcard door key in and the windows & doors closed! So it only works when you’re in the room, as you get one smartcard at check-in. In terms of furniture: - the main bed and the extendable sofa bed were perfect: good matress, firm enough to support people with different preferences in a good, relaxing and restful sleep - the kitchen area was equiped with stuff, but we did not use them apart from serving cofees we prepared with our own cofee machine, and for cooling water into the fridge & keeping fruis fresh. - the bath: walk-in shower with 2 modes, 2 sinks, hairdryer & external window, well maintained & cleaned daily - only one clothes closet, in one room, not very efficient, unless you store stuff on hangers. We would have preferred shelves, to be able to store clothers in a way that is easyer to find. - in this closet, the room’s safe box is hidden. To use it, get you safe key from the reception. An additional fee of 2 eur per day is charged for this service, but i think it’s worth the expense! The safe isn’t too large, but large enough for documents, papers, envelopes, juwlery etc. - as said before, rooms have huge panoramic windows, with reflective coating on the outside, and with heavy courtains on the inside. Combined with the AC, they do a good job to keep the light & heat out. - plenty of parking space available, a few places under wine leaves shadow, some just underneath your window. - plenty of trees around the hotel: olive trees, fig trees, lemon trees, etc The food at the hotel restaurant is very good as well. Breakfast is diverse, can be served either inside, either outside on the terrace, under the wine leaves shaddow. Some parts if the breakfast were present every day of our stay, some others changed. All in all, we enjoyed the breakfast everyday and we think it was a good option. We did not take the evening meals from the HB option, as we were mostly out, however we did try the a-la-carte options one night and it was excellent! The only downside on eating outside were the bees and wasps that were looking for food. Nothing bad happed but they may become quite annoying sometimes. The personnel: really really nice and helpful, providing advices about things to visit, beaches, prices, etc! We loved them all. They all speak really good english, and are very polite and friendly, making us feel we’re not in cold hotel, but in a warm and friendly company, where we would surely return next time.

We've spent 8 nights at Kallisti Hotel. We booked here following a recommendation from a friend and it did worth it. Excellent place for families with kids, spacious rooms, very clean, very well positioned for a beautiful sunset which you can enjoy from the balcony. Kids can enjoy the pool, always clean and very well maintained from one day to another, it is perfect for children, not too deep nor to big, excellent for games and play. Close to the near beaches, you can walk from the hotel to the beautiful golden sandy beach, but also lovely to take a walk in the evening to Potos city center. I think what makes the difference are the people, the hosts, starting with the manager of the location and ending with the cleaning ladies, everybody was smiling, greeting you with an honest "hello" and asking how you are and if you need anything, kind and always eager to help, . This is what matters most and provides you the best memories from a location, the people that you found there. I fully recommend Kallisti Hotel from Potos, Thasos. whether you are with family or just want a little bit of privacy for two, this is the place you need and want.

It was our first time on Thasos Island in this small town Potos, and definitely not the last time. A big thank you to all the friendly staff in this amazing Kallisti hotel. Every day here we enjoyed our stay, exceeded expectations, cleaning up to 5stars, delicious food and amazing personnel. Perfect location, quiet area perfect for families and their pets, amazing how pet friendly they are, 5 minutes walk to the beach, and 5 minutes walk outside this small town of Potos. Big swimming pool and perfect locations of each balcony room to the amazing sunset over the hills. The owner who is here everyday took great care of us and to be honest everyone in town knew about this place and the great food they have here, recommend ?

Best hotel in Thassos. 10/10 Will come back here. 10/10 would recommend. The staff, very welcoming and very delightfull to talk to. Rooms cleaned daily. Very spacious, very clean. Food very good, we personally enjoyed it. It was always Greek/ local dishes. And also a lot of it. (Soup, tzatziki/ eggplant paste with salad, starter, main dish, desert) The breakfast was a standard international hotel type with extra 1-2 dishes from the local cuisine. So, more than enough. The people that complain about the lack of diversity or the insuficient food at dinner/breakfast most likely had other personal issues. :) The pool very clean, not crowded. Beaches nearby, Potos 3 min away by car. The view, spectacular.

Food is very few choices for both dinner and breakfast The room was not clean when we got here. Internet is not working at all or it is very bad. The pool is not really usable. Mosquitos everywhere. Far from the beach. Sewage smell in the room. I was expecting a 4.5 place but it is way less than that.

Everything was perfect here! The view from the room's balcony, the food, the ladies from the reception! The pool is very tidy and clean! Lots of parking spaces and nice places outside around the pool, where you can sit and have a drink from the bar!

It is a very nice, not big and cozy hotel for families with kids. The staff is friendly and dedicated to customers wishes. I've seen enough Greeks hosted here, wich I think is a guarantee of the seriousness of the staff. The meals, we've had HB, and (I suggest you) their wine, are fine. It's the kind of accommodation you can confidently return to.

Beautiful views, a great pool and the most amazing staff. The hotel is located on the hill, you can see the sea in the most beautiful way! But the staff is what I love most about this place. Always smiling, friendly and kind these people deserve all the awards and praises! They have very clean rooms, rich and fresh breakfast and a view to die for. My second time here and planning to come back as often as I can.
