Selina Paros

Selina Paros - Staff very nice, smiling and helpful. Unfortunately, the rooms smell musty, the same is with the mattresses on the beds and pillows. On the first day we slept in a room on the ground floor facing the sea (higher room standard, higher price). The bathroom was not very aesthetic, grout with black coating, rusty, leaking shower hose ... In the bathroom, water did not flow from the shower tray, it poured out through the grate in the floor outside, and water was leaking from the rusty shower hose .... Service fixed the fault, but there was still a problem with patency. There was a beautiful view from the room, but the awful musty smell from the mattress on the bed made it a sleepless night. The staff suggested a room with a sea view on the first floor, it was a little better, because after entering the room, the unpleasant smell was not so bad, but the mattress still had a musty smell ... The synthetic filling in the pillows under the head was compact and twisted. The bathroom was not very aesthetic, locally dark joints resembled mold or fungus ... water was still coming out of the grate in the bathroom floor ... The breakfasts were correct. Hotel staff is very nice - Julka, Maria, Giorgos. It was Maria who suggested the room upstairs. She was very caring and asked many times if she could help with anything else. Julka, Giorgos and the other staff are fantastic, young people, smiling and very kind, willing to help, caring. Swimming pool - it happened twice that it was impossible to use the morning swimming (around 8.00, 8.15) because at that time the pool cleaning was started, which lasted 0.5 hours. There is a bar in the hotel, music is played quite loudly from the speakers, which creates the atmosphere of a beach bar. In the evening, lights are turned on, which create a pleasant atmosphere.

This hotel is not as described online. It is not a 4* hotel but it is a hostel. The rooms are outdated, broken showers & smell awful. Breakfast is ok but no proper coffee unless you pay €4.50 at the bar. We complained about our room and got moved to a slightly better one however we ended up checking out early and getting a refund for the remaining nights as it is not as described online. Management were helpful with giving us a refund but I wish they would state online that this is a hostel not a hotel as I have wasted a day of my holiday. Also please note when visiting that the main town in Paros is only accessible by car and the taxis charge €60 one way.

Thia hotel has nice rooms and my room had a great view of sea. Room was big and clean however, they provide very poor service to guests. First, there is no phone in the room. So if you have a question, you must use your own phone to call the reception. There is no water in room. Even if you call them, they wont bring it to your room and you need to go to reception area to buy it. When you buy something, you must pay immediately and cant add it to your room. There are small espresso cups in room for coffee. If you dont drink espresso and you need a bigger cup to have your coffee, they ask you to go and ask a paper cup from the bar. So when they come for cleaning, they throw the cup away even if it was not used. So, each time you need a coffee in your room, you need to change and go to the bar to grab another cup! They wont bring anything to your room. Usually the resorts provide shower gel and body lotion in room. None of them were available. There all might seem little things but the accumulation of these things made the whole stay inconvenient. I will not comeback to a hotel where i cant get a coffee in my room without headache of looking for a cup or water.
