9.4/10 Exceptional! (231 reviews)
This hotel, like many others marked as “VIP Access,” offers no real benefits. Despite clear upgrade availability the night before check-in, we were told nothing was available once we mentioned VIP status—a recurring pattern where upgrades are consistently denied using vague excuses. If a non-VIP guest wanted to pay, I’m certain a room would have been available. There was no recognition, no perk, no welcome amenity—nothing. Even after raising the issue with guest relations, no effort was made to address it. Additionally, the advertised valet parking doesn’t exist and isn’t needed—it’s just misleading. This feels more like a marketing trick than a real program. I strongly urge you to review and remove this hotel from the VIP Access list.

Istron Beach Holiday

Salty sea air and spectacular ocean vistas are some things you can look forward to on your Istron holiday. If you want to save on your trip to Istron, here's a tip — go with one of our Istron holiday packages. Grab one near Voulisma Beach, just 0.2 miles from the city centre and a must-see while here. Alternatively, pick a package that puts you closer to Istro Beach, another gorgeous strip of coast. Whichever you choose, you'll be left with extra dollars in your holiday budget to spend.

Things You Should Know About Istron

  • There's nothing more relaxing than being close to the water. If staying within a short walk of a sunny shore is your idea of a glorious escape, browse through our Istron beach hotels and see what's available.
  • Another popular lodging style is apartments. Check out Villa Angela and Kavousanos Apartments and compare the prices and amenities.
