Pension Sofia - Pension Sofia

My wife and I stayed 4 nights for our honeymoon and couldnt have picked a better place. Sofia and her husband Manoli keep the grounds and rooms immaculate. Manoli picked us up from the port and gave us a quick tour on the way to the property. Everything is within a close walk (10 minutes) and there are some restaurants even closer. This place is located on a quiet street so you can relax when you need to. If we ever come back to Paros, we will definitely not stay anywhere else. Wifi is solid as well and theres a computer thats public if needed.Σας ευχαριστούμε για όλα Σοφία και Μανόλη! Χαρήκαμε πάρα πολύ που Σας γνωρίσαμε και που καθίσαμε μαζί σας. Καλή συνέχεια!

Sofia & Manolo have lovely B & B one street back from the water. Stayed for 4 nights last week and really enjoyed. Beautiful garden setting. Highly recommended. Greg from Oz.

We enjoyed 2 delightful nights at Pension Sofia. We planned on dropping off our bags and then exploring Parikia because our ferry would arrive before check in. The proprietors told us the room would be ready in about 20 minutes, so we waited. They offered something to drink and we enjoyed a glass of fresh squeezed orange juice and tea bread. The owner answered all of our questions about laundry, restaurants, and transportation, and gave us highlights on the popular sights. When we got into the room we were well prepared to go adventuring. The bed was not 2 twins pushed together. It was actually a full/queen (I am not an expert on the difference) and very comfortable. The air conditioning was powerful, which was welcome in the hot summer weather. The shower had great water pressure and was sufficiently large with a curtain. It was the hose type that allows you to hold and move the nozzle. It did not have a place to hang it above the body, which took some getting used to. The room had a private porch which we enjoyed using. The property is an oasis in the town. It is a 10 minute walk from the ferry terminal and center of town. It's set back a few blocks from the waterfront in a more residential neighborhood, which achieved our goal of being in a quieter area. The lush gardens have many secluded seating areas. We got takeaway gyros from To Souvlaki Tou Pepe and drinks from one of the nearby markets one day and enjoyed eating at one of the tables in the garden. Several breakfast options are provided. We opted for the buffet, which I would recommend. We thought we need to book breakfast when we booked the room, which wasn't necessary. The buffet breakfast spread included tea, coffee, fresh squeezed orange juice (we both had several glasses), tea breads, homemade apple pie with a very crispy pastry crust, real Greek yogurt with crushed walnut or honey toppings, watermelon, honeydew melon, peach, banana, kiwi, sliced meat and cheese, and hard boiled eggs. Guests enjoyed their breakfast at the large table on the porch or around the garden. It was the first time we'd seen other guests. The proprietors offer a ride to the ferry terminal, but we wanted to take the short walk before sitting on a ferry for several hours. We highly recommend staying at Pension Sofia if you visit Parikia.

I highly recommend Pension Sofia. It's clean, central and very quiet. Our room was cleaned daily and towels were also changed every day. Sofia's husband Emmanuel is always working in the garden and he's very friendly. They have a dog (Nella), 3 cats and 4 kittens (up for adoption). Wifi is also very good, shower cubicle spacious and rooms have a lovely terrace overlooking the garden

A really lovely place to stay in. The owners are friendly and collected us from the port. The bedroom is comfortable and a reasonable size. I would definitely recommend this for a holiday location.

This is my sixth visit to Paros and this is by far the very best place I have stayed. Everything about the place is amazing. It is one street removed from the busy port road so you will have a quite haven. The attention to detail and cleanliness you would only expect in a much higher priced accommodation. It is called a pension which generally indicates there is no breakfast but for a few extra euros you can have a breakfast that will fill you till dinner. Sofia, the owner, is very helpful and speaks very good English so you will be able to get answers to any questions you might have.

I stayed here with my sister for a few days and we had such a wonderful time! Rooms were cute and clean, breakfast buffet was delicious and you can eat it anywhere you like in the garden. The garden itself is a very magical and picturesque place. Owners were extremely helpful, offering guidance on where to go on the island (both culture as well as beaches) and were kind enough when we were leaving to drop us off at the port so we didn't need to carry our suitcases in 30+° temperature :-). Would highly recommend!

Rooms are nice. The hotel is very nice, with very good breakfast. Very nice people too.
