Pnoi Hotel

I visited Pnoi hotel mid June and was absolutely over the moon with my stay. I was solo travelling and they could not have made my experience better. Even before I visited Pnoi were amazing at replying to any queries I had. As soon as I arrived they were all so welcoming and couldn’t do more for me. All the staff were so amazing at making sure I was looked after. The hotel itself was beautiful, the pool area and rooms were so clean. I honestly have no complaints and couldn’t recommend this place enough. Thank you for having me :)

Very good value for price. The room was super big, family room with two separated spaces and two toilet. Swimming pool small but clean and nice. Breakfast was very good quality. Staff super helpful. The beach nearby is not the best one but you are very near some of the best beaches in the island. Very nice restaurants reachable by foot. There is a small gym at hotel, and there is a very nice trail room nearby.

I rarely leave negative reviews, but my experience at this hotel in Paros was so profoundly disappointing that I feel compelled to warn future guests. I originally attempted to leave this review on Booking.com, but it appears the owners have disabled or blocked the ability for guests to post reviews there — which is deeply concerning and speaks volumes. To begin with, the photos online were wildly misleading. What we arrived to was not even remotely close to a four-star hotel. The rooms looked like they hadn’t been updated since the 1950s — with old furniture, an archaic air conditioner that barely functioned, and a pervasive smell of mold and sewage that made it hard to sleep comfortably. The beds were also old, extremely uncomfortable, and very small — both in width and length (not standard single bed size) — making it impossible to rest properly. The “balcony” was another letdown — too small to sit on, with the air conditioning unit occupying most of the floor space and blasting hot air, making it completely unusable. The promised “sea view” simply did not exist. The breakfast was arguably the most shocking part. It consisted of the same recycled food every day, left out in the 35–40°C heat. Juices/water were warm, and the yogurt and fruit were also hot and stale. Nothing felt fresh, and hygiene was clearly not a priority. The housekeeping experience was equally unpleasant — the maid was consistently rude and dismissive. Despite being marketed as a beach hotel, no beach towels were provided — something you’d expect at even a basic resort, let alone a supposed four-star one. Finally, the Wi-Fi simply never worked — not once during our entire stay. I’ve visited Paros many times and have always encountered warm hospitality and beautiful accommodations. This hotel was a complete outlier — uncomfortable, falsely advertised, and entirely disappointing. I would strongly urge future guests to look elsewhere.
