Nice week on Samos

We (couple, 28 years old) have just spent a week at Andromeda. In total it was a very nice stay however not entirely fulfilling compared to the price. We stayed at room 101 (highest floor), the view was amazing. Furniture on balcony and in the bedroom fine, the beds are quite hard so don't expect a soft comfy bed. Not a lot of closet space. We did not use the aircondition, but it looked like something from the 90s (not really White anymore) and it was placed right on top of the closet (blowing down on it). Fine safety box in the room and a small flat screen TV. Small fridge in the room, ours was so noisy we had to turn it off during the night. Right below our room were what we thought was a water pump of some sort which was starting and stopping all the time (quite loud sound) luckily not during the night. The bathroom is what really needs attention to get this hotel up to speed, the shower is approximately 40x40cm when using the shower curtain... Not sure on how to make it better, maybe placing a rail for the shower curtain in the ceiling and then use a weighted shower curtain so it doesn't stick to you. Water varies quite a lot in temperature but fine pressure. Breakfast was really sad, the cheapest toast bread and hard hard boiled cold eggs. No fruit or juice at all. Coffee was ok. The whole setup with the breakfast is really clumsy and not really thought through. You can borrow pool/beach towels in the reception, I don't know why that isn't mentioned anywhere. Pool area good apart from an electric wire coming out of the ground right at the pool entrance and a couple of the wood poles for the pergola have rotted away at the bottom and PU foam has been used to "fix" it. Fine number of sunbeds. Pool bar has nice food (very big portions) and drinks for reasonible prices. The "beach" at the hotel is a wooden platform close to the water. You can go down and take a swim but remember bathing shoes. In general the hotel is not for poorly walking people, a lot of stairs and incline. In general the outdoor area down between the hotel and the water really could use a shine up! Staff quite nice, some better at english than others. 25 minutes walk to Samos town, quite narrow road with some traffic. Suggestions for hotel: - bathroom needs update, fx a weighred rail shower curtain to avoid loosing the space because of clinging shower curtain. - breakfast in general. Fruit is cheap on Samos and tastes great, use it to make the breakfast a lot more fun, as well as juice. Maybe Invest in a coffee machine and then place All the drinks elsewhere as the food so that people can go get a cup of coffee extra without having to stand in the same line as the guys toasting their toast. Learn how to make warm eggs and don't boil them half blue. Add a couple of sausages or bacon. Maybe a "make your own pancake" station, together with the fresh fruit. - make something with the huge outdoor area between the hotel and the water, remove the old minigolf courses and tidy things a bit.

Thanks Andromeda

Best hotel experience ever, the staff is lovely, friendly and super helpful. Samos is extremely beautiful and Andromeda has the best view to the turquoise Mediterranean ocean and iconic sunsets. Definitely we will be back, thanks a lot Anastacia. Best Cruz and Emilie

Traveling with family and father with celiac disease

I have celiac disease. I forgot to inform the hotel in advance. Still, the way they have gone all the way to help me, is unbelievable. The manager bought gluten free bread to me as soon as the stores opened. He went back to his private apartment to get baking paper, so I could use the toaster during breakfast. When I ordered dinner in the restaurant, the waiter called the butcher sunday evening to check if the sausages are gluten free. The staff is just super friendly. They really do everything they can to make their guests happy. The hotel is located on a slope with amazing view over the sea. They have a swimming pool with a bar / small restaurant. Everything is clean and well looked after. Samos is a very quiet town. Not for young people who wants to party, but perfect families with children and mature people who just want to relax in a quiet place. Air conditioning in every room. (small fee extra) Though the constant gentle breeze made the air conditioner unnecessary. Could not be any better.

HAPPY MEMORIES

My family stayed here many years ago and were treated like Royalty. We loved it so much we have never forgotten the hospitality fabulous rooms and great cuisine.Our son was suffering from childhood asthma at the time and the managers were both trained pharmacists based in Athens. They did so much to assist when he was having breathing difficulty due to the heat. They would not accept any recompense for their efforts either.

Right place for relaxation

We enjoyed our week at Andromeda. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The chef at the snack bar at the swimmin pool does some great meals - we loved frieds shrimps, spaghetti Andromeda (the only problem with this dish is its huge quantity, andf saganaki mussles). The swimming pool is large enough and deep enough. There is a concrete path down to the beach.There are beach chairs at the beach and you can even get some shade from the trees if you wish. The beach is stony, so be sure to wear proper foot protection if you want to swim there. There is a bus stop about 250 meters down the road (at the road fork) for busses going down to Samos town (once per hour until about 1PM) but it is o. k. to walk -took us about 25 minutes at a luisure pace. About 14 minutes down the road towards Samos town there is a shop where one can get basic necessities and some fruit. We bought tomatoes to supplement our breakfast which is pretty basic, but acceptable considering that Andromeda is a budget hotel. We will definitely come back.
