This hotel is about one mile from the beach. From the beach, it is gentle uphill walk from the road to the main street, then a steeper walk up to the old square, the quite a steep walk to the hotel from there. If you don't stop, you can do it in about 20 minutes, or there is the hotel bus from about 09:00 - 19:00 there and back in five minutes, with a break of about two hours at lunch time. It's all downhill if you are going to town or beach.
The resort has an excellent selection of taverna's in the main street and on the sea front, and they are in my opinion excellent value for a meal, snack or just a drink. There is an English bar and a couple of lovely greek bars and supermarkets around the Old Square. The beach is shingle and sand, and the sea is calm, clear and warm. It gets deep from about 25m out.
We have been to the hotel several times from 2006 - present, and tend to book independently. The hotel is modern and generally of a good standand. It's not seven star but it doesn't pretend to be. The restaurant is clean and food is wholesome, and there is an international menu, including a fried breakfast if you want it in temperatures approaching 90. There is plenty of salad, cold courses, hot courses, breakfast cerial, tea and coffee, icecream and friut juice available. The bar serves a variety of drinks at a little below European prices, and is genearlly open until after 1 am, but doesnt make enough noise to carry to the accommodation.
The decor is modern, the staff are polite and fluent in English, and the rooms are well maintained, kept clean, have fridges and air conditioning. You either get a spectacular view of the hills and woods, or the sea, or both. The kids club as far as we have experiencesd is in German, so no good for English kids, with the exception of the most determined and outgoing. It must be said English reps have full use of the excellent facilities so they have the opportunity to organise activities for English families.
The clientel is generally German and eastern european. I find they are the most common nationals visiting the resort.
I could recommend Pefkohori for a quiet, relaxing break, with all usual, and in my experience, cheaper facilities of a high standard. The Atrium Hotel is an excellent base for your holiday there.
