Pilot Amphora Boutique Hotel

This was our second stay in this hotel for our summer holidays. As last year, we had great time here. The hotel is well located in Georgioupolis, it is very quite and peaceful and close to the beach. It is very clean, the food is good from breakfast to diner. What is the most important is the kindness of all the staff (cleaners, waiters and manager). You feel even better than at home. We fall in love with this place and will come back for sure.

The Pilot amphora is a beautiful hotel with amazing architecture and the aesthetic is gorgeous. We (young couple) stayed for 7 nights in an indulge room with private pool. The room itself was gorgeous, the bed is extremely comfortable and the private pool was a great size but very cold and was always full of dead insects which can’t really be helped due to the trees above. The location is great and shops restaurants and bars are within walking distance. We also dined at the sister hotel buffet which was surprisingly really good and great value. Our only complaint is the overall attitude of the staff, some were helpful but most are very quiet and reserved and some seemed cold towards us. When we arrived late in the evening we didn’t get a welcome drink and were just handed our key and made to find our room ourselves. The cleaning staff also took/threw out one of our possessions without asking during our room cleaning. Overall we would return but would recommend a room without a pool as it wasn’t worth the extra expense in our opinion.

A lovely hotel! Not a 5* boutique. The pros noted by others do stand for the most part, but 5* boutique suggests intimacy & attentiveness, that was not our experience: - Cold welcome - on arrival, we were told the only way to check in is via an app (eh?) zero human interaction, we were not told anything about the hotel, the area or recommendations. There was a whole basement area we didn’t discover until the last day. - 2 cocktails to the room took over 30 minutes. We didn’t order again. - surprisingly had to explain that vegans don’t eat eggs, even after doing so thoroughly I was brought an omelette. - I was refused a cup of tea at 10pm because ‘the coffee machine had been turned off and there are no other sources of hot water’. A simple request any 5* establishment should handle with no questions asked. - The kitchen extractor fan on the outside of the building made the balcony smell of fried grease, it was so strong that we couldn’t use the balcony in the evenings while the hotel was preparing dinner. Maybe this is just the case for room 1211, shouldn’t be for any. Not tragic, but the aesthetics are ‘try hard’ for the quality of the service - we certainly won’t be returning! All the best.
