Hotel Blue Fountain

Hello to all my fellow travelers. I took a short trip to Athens to visit a friend of mine, then he recommended Blue Fountain Hotel in Aegina and I took the liberty to book a room there for a five days trip as well. The ferry trip on the way there was shorter than expected and pleasant. Cab fare to the hotel was about 15-20 minutes ride and it only cost about $15.00 including tip. I booked this room directly on the hotel website and the rate was cheaper than I was seeing on the online booking websites. The hotel's website and Facebook have good descriptions for the various room types, so read them carefully to discern the options and call them if you have specific questions, especially if you travel with a larger group. They were very helpful over the phone. This is a privately-owned hotel, which I found refreshing. The rooms are spaciously and extremely well maintained, with a private balcony as well. The king bed was so comfortable, and when I paid the staff the compliment about it, they just informed me that they are all brand new ones. The heating/cooling system was controlled by an actual remote in my room, which is unlike the large noisy units found in most hotels these days. The room was serviced daily with new towels and washcloths, and the bed was made. Again, this is something we don't see too often these days. The Blue Fountain Hotel is in a great location for visiting lots of attractions and is also convenient to the port as well. The restaurant and food were just out of this world. Mean it! it. The outside pool looked clean and nice, but I did not use it. Thanks to Mr. Adrian, and all staff and members for a such pleasant stay. I would definitely stay here again on a return trip to Aegina.

La isla de AEGINA es muy tranquila, nada que ver con Mikonos o Santorini. La ciudad de AEGINA tiene más movimiento por su puerto, y la de Agia Marina aún es más tranquilo el ambiente. Todo muy familiar. Hemos estado en este hotel durante una semana en agosto y mi opinión es que es un hotel muy recomendable en todos los aspectos. Las habitaciones son grandes y limpias, tienen un pequeño frigorífico, y aire acondicionado. El baño nuestro estaba muy bien arreglado. El desayuno buffet es muy abundante y variado. Y la piscina es grande y limpia con muchas hamacas y palmeras . Tiene excelentes vistas sobre la bahía. Es un hotel muy frecuentado por familias de Rumanía con niños. Estuvimos en alojamiento con desayuno por 70€ la habitación para 2 personas. Íbamos a cenar a diversas tabernas del puerto, a 10 minutos. La playa, dicen que la mejor de la isla, estaba a 5 minutos andando y cubría poco. Hotel muy recomendable y barato.
