“Great hotell with perfect location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 August 2011

We were at first a bit disappointed with out room but got another room, a big suite with a huge balcony with sea view.
Very kind staff we were tiered after the trip and did not have energy to rush to the restaurant before they closed so then they got some food from the restaurant and brought it to our room.
Great location very close to the beach the only minus was the noise from a disco by the beach but we slept fairly ok anyway!

“Good hotel on the beach”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 August 2011

The hotel was nice enough - we had a side room so had restricted views of beach. Staff were friendly. We had no remote control for tv which was not an issue as we only watch tv when going to sleep. When we told staff they gave us an old broken one - better than none.
Breakfast was down the road only a short stroll but was excellent with large variety of food.
For the price I think rooms could have been a bit bigger with better views. Have stayed at better for less money.
Strange they rang the afternoon before checkout and asked us to pay - not sure why?
Appears marketed to German clientele.
Rooftop bar gets a big thumbs up with 4 euro cocktail of the day or 6.50 standard price and great service

“Previous reviews gave me high expectations - I was not disappointed.”

This is a good 4* hotel facing the beach at the gorgeous fishing village of Georgioupolis. It has become a tourist centre for reasons that will be obvious once you get there. There is a long sandy beach and the sea is quite shallow for some distance out. There are a variety of beach bars and various hotels. The Corissia Princess is probably the best one there. There is also a small port area, where the fishing boats come in. The river is very cold and makes the sea nearby interesting. If you go to the port, you must see the pelican there - he or she is beautiful! The village also has a square surrounded by bars and restaurants a few hundred yards inland, which makes an excellent place to end the day with a coffee or a drink and watch the world go by. Although some say that the rooms are small, we did not find that although they are a little narrow. We did find the bed hard but the staff were very happy to provide a fleece to go on top of the mattress, which helped. There was plenty of hanging and storage space. The bathroom had a shower - no bath, which suited us but the larger rooms did have a bath, we noticed. What was amazing was the value for money. The breakfasts were everything you could ask for - whichever country you came from and the dinners were a pleasant surprise. You should take the half board option because for under £2 per head per day you can dine in the evening at the buffet, which had an enormous choice of hot and cold foods. My wife likes all sorts of food but I am a very picky eater, liking only plain food. We both enjoyed every evening at the Corissia Park, which is where you dine. If you want to, you can miss an evening and eat in one of the plentiful restaurants and it will not be much of a financial loss. We intended to but never got round to it because the food at Corissia was so good and so varied.
Very few English stay at the Corissia Princess (there were few English in the town) and it is a place used mainly by German and Austrian tour companies. We noticed that everyone there was very civilised and the whole area around Georgioupolis appeared quite well-to-do. There was no rowdyness anywhere but do bear in mind that the locals tend to speak very loudly to each other!

“German neatness, wonderful staff”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 May 2010

We get a very low-priced offer to stay in this hotel and we were happy to choose it. We were staying there in the low season, so there were not many travelers. The stafff was very attentive.
Negatives: not cosy beach, any of sport activities.
Food in the restaurant - average, nothing special, but quite good. Glass of wine -2,1eur, other drinks are more expensive.
We can suggest a cheap and cosy taverna for the lunch in the near Kavros village, near the supermarkets - Asteri. The 0,5 litre of home wine - 1,7eur, big and delicious mousaka - 4,8eur and also two glasses of wine extra;)

“Very Nice Clean Hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 October 2008

The Corissia Princess is a very nice clean hotel directly on the beach. The beach outside the hotel is OK but go further to the east and providing the waves are not too rough it is even better. If the sea is rough it is usually safe to swim outside the hotel. A beach to the west over the river is to my mind even nicer allthough the sea is cold due to the river from the mountains pouring into it.

The rooms are comfortable although I believe the hotel has been compltely gutted and refurbished from what was once an old rundown hotel, This being the case would explain why the rooms are fairly small and the bath room extremely small. Saying that everything in the bathroom functioned well.
The Aircon is a little noisy but very efficient and there is a flat screen TV in the room (to me a TV is a TV but I know alot of people like a flat screen!) There is also a full sized fridge with ice making freezing compartment which was very useful.

The swimming pool is small and often in the shade of surrounding builings but with such a nice beach it is not a problem The pool area was never full and the sunbeds on the grass very pleasent. Do not get one on the paving next to the adjoining Metropol Hotel as it always semed to smell of sewage and rubbish( Not the fault of the Corissia Princess)

I went on a half board basis. Meals are taken down the road at the self service Corissia park. I would not bother going half board as you have to eat very early and it is buffet and a bit canteenish also there are plenty of nice restaurants in Georgioupolis.

The staff were all helpful and friendly and if you want a nice place to stay in Georgiopolis for a few days I would definately reccomend this hotel

  • Liked — Its location close to nice beaches
  • Disliked — the small bathroom
