I am trying to write now something wise. Seriously! Mixed opinion about this hotel may confuse many readers. But I think the best what is possible it is to describe how Lefkimi Hotel works. Your opinion will be strictly related to what you understand about the hotel. Staff, hotel, place - easily can be labeled as the best as can be and as the worst as can be. Why?

Let's talk about details.

Assumption 1 - you are 17, first time alone on the holidays without parents but with group of your best friends. You get a bed, you have swimming pool 3 m from your door, hundreds of people similar to you walking around 24/7. Party clubs just 20 m from your place and there are plenty of places with bubble disco, screw-mary disco, Latin-vodka disco, dummy-dummy disco and many more other discos. You are just taken to paradise! Boys, girls, all drunk as you, it is so funny, noisy, sexy and cool.

How is staff? Staff in Lefkimi hotel is great! Help you find your bed if you lost, let you smoke on the hall, give you back your sun-glasses, credit card, sun cream and pants if you forgotten them by the pool. They make drinks and sandwiches the best in the world. They can kiss you or give you a hug. They clean the rest of your hod-dogs from stairs (that hot-dogs you ate few minutes ago, do you remember?). It is cool! The best holidays ever.

Assumption 2

You are not 17. You come to Lefkimi on regular holidays what means you want sleep at night and relax during the day, etc.
You get a bed in ugly room, swimming pool stinks as cloaca. Party noise and screams of drunk people whole night long. Staff is so occupied with young teens they have no time for you. Breakfast is as nothing - toast and marmalade with thin coffee every day. People smoke in dinning room, It is always noisy and crowded. You are not sure all people around you are guests or just visitors. Police or doctors come from time to time - some people are wounded or something is stolen.

Enough?

I think so. The reality is more extreme :)

I am not 17 and that is why my opinion is like it is - keep away from Lefkimi Hotel.

I really appreciate whole staff effort they do making the place still working. Hats off!

We arrived early hours in the morning and as soon as we got there Aris gave us a lecture about policies and rules and then took our passport, then took us to our rooms. Which I was not pleased about, for the amount you pay it is ridiculous. Its a tiny room, and the floors were dirty and there was a dead mosquito in the shower basin, not a clean hotel. Although the cleaner came the next day and improved this. The staff are the most unfriendly people I have ever met in my whole life. You would be really lucky to get a smile off them, they pressurise you to pay for a safety deposit box and the charge list is disgusting. 50 euro fine if you got a speck of dirt on the towel/pillow/sheets. Our bed sheets weren't changed once! The only nice friendly person there was a lady cleaner! 6 euros for a cup of tea and a can of fanta at there pool! Spoke to another person who stayed at the hotel and he told us how they tried to charge him 10 euros to get his passport back, and the lady attacked a thomas cook rep, so they will be taken off their books in 2012. We were relieved when we got out passport back without a charge! I wouldn't advise anyone to stay here! Its not great and personally I think your made to feel unwelcome and unworthy of there custom and services!

we didnt know we were going to a prison camp ime disgusted at the fact you had to ask for toilet roll when you needed to go, the fines you would be charged was unbelieveable,out the pool by 6.15 if granny gazzapo was in good mood and if you were lucky you might of just caught a smile from reception staff .we did although meet two nice couples ann and neil and dan and sonny who made it a bit more bearable to stay but overall we will most utterly and definatley not going back you were just not made wellcome
