    The hotel is in the heart of the historical city center, and even so, it was quiet during the night. The room was cozy and clean. The reception was very kind and helpful. You will need to walk around 7 min from the parking, because you can’t park in the city center.

    Gorgeous hotel right in the centre. The host was very helpful. We booked last minute as we were travelling around the island, she rearranged the room to suit our needs. Would definitely stop here again.

    It does not have an elevator and it is hard to climb two floors with luggage. It does not have parking. We parked in a place 5 minutes in walking distance from the hotel, but that was 60 cents per hour. It does not have balcony and, therefore, it doesn’t have a clothesline where to dry our clothes (towels and bathing suits from the beach, it is a must in my opinion seeing it is summertime and this is a beach destination).

    It is in the middle of old town, so it has a good placement. The place is very beautiful, it is an old, but elegant building arranged with a lot of good taste. It has a spacious room and air conditioning, the bathroom looks very modern, and it had the necessary amenities for the shower. We liked it. Also we appreciated the two bottles of water in the fridge. The owner was very hospitable as well.

    Absolutely no complaints. We loved our stay.

    Eleni was great - very warm, friendly, ever-present at the front desk and best of all was very complimentary of photos of our dog. The rooms are beautiful, clean, spacious with a high ceiling and small terrace with large bathrooms and a safe for valuables. The hotel itself is situated conveniently in the heart of Old Town so good food & drink and the beach are all with a short walking distance

    The Leo hotel was wonderful…you cannot beat the location our was so cute and comfortable. There was always someone at the front lobby there to help with any questions you may have. There were 3 of us in the room and we were very comfortable. I would absolutely stay there again and recommend 100%

    Nothing. I don’t think breakfast was available but there are plenty of places nearby. Like other reviews say the stairs with a heavy bag can be a bit tricky but not if you are capable - so I wouldn’t let it put you off.

    Incredible location. One of the only ones right in the centre of the Old Town. The 16th century building and rooms are stunning, better than the photos, and a good blend of modern and traditional. Customer service was exceptional too, with great conversation, recommendations and advice. A fantastic stay, would highly recommend.

    There was not parking available at the hotel itself. The street outside the hotel was shut down for pedestrians only, which we didn't know when we arrived so we had to call the hotel while we were driving around for help on where to park. There is free parking several blocks away, but it was too far and dark for us to want to walk from there so we opted for the closer (~2 blocks) parking lot that was very reasonably priced - 10 euro for overnight parking into the next afternoon.

    This place is so cute, and right in the heart of town so you are really close to everything- from food, to shopping, to attractions. The hotel itself is adorable, old style wood and stone that has been tastefully modernized. The accommodations were very roomy and comfortable. We felt like we should be in some tiny old town in the alps with the charm of the place. The woman at the desk was very helpful in directing us where to park and how to find the hotel, as well as waiting up late for us when we arrived.

    Mattresses were too soft for our taste and no back support. Because it's a converted stone building and its location in a narrow alley, there is no elevator (not for those with mobility problems or heavy bags!), not much light, the room stays cold, and there is no proper ventilation in the bathroom. I didn't find it very comfortable in cold weather.

    Top marks for location in a quiet alley surrounded by shops and restaurants. Short walk to the Fortezza and harbor. Helpful receptionist (Eleni?). Daily housekeeping.

    The cafe/restaurant was closed therefore there was no morning breakfast. Overall, this wasn’t an issue as we were surrounded by other restaurants and coffee shops.

    Communication with a late check-in was excellent. Overall, the hotel was excellent, would definitely recommend. The value is amazing.
