Excellent location in the heart of Athens close to the Parthenon and "Old Athens". Very friendly and helpful staff with wonderful breakfast.

Wonderful for our family vacation. Two suites met our needs to relax and cook when we wanted to

Beautiful Villas with nice welcome gift basket.

Very slow check in. Hotel was billed as updated but rooms and all facilities are very tired. Food was very mediocre

Very good overview of old Athens.

Wonderful way to see more of Athens than just the core.

George was wonderful with the little girls

Food was fantastic and Maria was excellent explaining all dishes

A wonderful tour over to Paros and great swimming in two bays.

The cook and her husband were very gracious hosts and we had a fun dinner with them, the guide and some unexpected friends of the cook

Excellent tour of the small island. A great way to learn about the history of Tinos

A fantastic lunch in the countryside with a wonderful cook.

Close to everything

Walking distance to everything.

Most amazing hotel I have ever stayed.

This is located in a very trendy energy location.

Christina is very knowledgeable and takes times to answer questions

George was great. Funny, knowledgeable and nice looking. this was a great hike.

Maria was great - knew the area well and most of Greece.

Food, scenery and staff was amazing.

Great hike and lots of history. Nicole has grown up on this island and know so much.

Crew was great - other guests no so much.

Well located near major visiting sites. Built with archeological excavations visible from lobby. Fabulous rooftop restaurant. Perfect view of Acropolis. Attentive staff. Excellent breakfast served at rooftop restaurant.

Lovely quiet apartment steps from Aegean Sea and main part of Old town.

Highest point on caldera. Did not have to go anywhere to experience gorgeous sunsets. All could be seen from terrace.

Excellent information. Well paced given lots of walking. Very knowledgeable guide

Excellent way to explore Athens. Visited neighborhoods we might not have found.

Katya helped us understand both ancient and contemporary history of Naxos.

So good to get outside of Ild town and experience village life beyond.

Excellent way to experience life in Santorini outside of caldera.

So special to see caldera from the water and get close up to volcanic rocks.

One of the best with one of the best guides ever! Alex!

Elizabeth was great on this tour! Loved it!

Manos and the e-bike tour was one of the best trips on Naxos!

This was magical. The only way to truly appreciate Santorini.

Very clean and the executive suite is large with a kitchenette and separate bedroom. Quiet except for a couple emergency vehicles at night. Perfect location. The hotel's claim that Executive Suites have a view of the Acropolis, Hadrian Arch etc. is misleading---if you stretch out over the very small balcony overlooking the street and turn your head as far as possible to the side you can get a glimpse of them in a narrow opening down the street between buildings. Hotel breakfasts were extensive and very good. We used the reception/bar area for our family/friends group pre-meal cocktails with both our own wine and wine purchased from the bar. Staff was very friendly and helpful and on our last night they did recommend a restaurant in an out-of-the-way beautiful location that was the culinary highlight of the stay.

Overall it was very clean and functional. The staff were very helpful, friendly and personable. The rooms are of adequate size but the bathroom was small. Air conditioning was fine once we figured out how to set it - there were no instructions in the room. The fridge was cold but the tiny freezer was unable to keep ice frozen. Location is in an area that is a bit rundown. Easy walk to town. The beach at the hotel is ok but not as remarkable as other nearby beaches reached by bus (buy the tickets before you board) or taxi (expensive). The two pools were very clean and inviting. Maid service very prompt and efficient. Breakfasts were very extensive and many types of self-serve fresh-brew coffees were available. The layout of the hotel is a bit inconvenient in that you almost always need to go up and down short stairways to get around. The Galaxy pool is smaller and there were rarely, if ever, any shaded lounges available on sunny days. More umbrellas and chairs would be useful. The restaurant, serving breakfast and dinner adjacent to the large pool, was actually part of the next-door sister property Naxos Resort. Bar staff were admittedly worn out from a long season but did their best top put on a game face. If we did this trip again, we would not choose the Galaxy and instead have KimKim offer other choices.

Clean, with very friendly staff. Nice location with restaurants nearby and you can walk to the Acropolis. We only stayed one night so can't give a full review - except to compliment the staff for having a takeaway breakfast ready for us when we had to leave at 4:30.a.m.!

This tour was billed as a cooking class in someone's home with a farm and garden tour before making lunch and eating it outside under the trees. There was no farm or garden tour and lunch was served in the stuffy kitchen. But the most disappointing was that the meal was not something that seemed Greek. It was meatballs with two kids of potatoes - mashed and fried. I was expecting salads, filo dough, olive oil, honey - those kinds of things. Having to make common meatballs and peel potatoes seemed like work, not a culinary experience. Our driver/guide was suffering from a root canal and he tried his best to be helpful but you could tell he couldn't wait for the tour to be over. Same with us. Also, the tour said we would stop at a distillery (we did, just ok) and an artisan pottery studio (we didn't). The woman teaching the class was pleasant but she seemed tired. I suggest finding other options for anyone wanting a cooking class - this one wasn't great.

We had so much fun on this sunset cruise. The catamaran was spacious and classy - one of the nicest catamarans in the harbor. We were lucky with the weather - no wind, the water was like glass and the temperature perfect. The crew was nice but didn't engage with us much. They brought out two kinds of appetizers, including chunks of banana with honey and cinnamon that was different and delicious. They served plenty of ok chilled white wine. The crew anchored by the arch for the sunset, and we watched a big full moon rise over Naxos harbor on the way back (it was twilight). We were all in great spirits, lots of laughs, and this was one of the highlights of the trip.

This was just what we wanted on our first full day: an orientation on Naxos and a visit to three villages that coincidentally let us check out some hiking options. Guide Gina was enthusiastic, personable and knowledgeable, explaining the quarries and terrain as we entered the hills. She had only been on Naxos a year and the driver cheerfully added information during her narration on the way to the villages. We met very nice local cafe in Melanes who provided some delicious snacks. (If we had known there would be food we would have skipped breakfast. )

On time, friendly drivers.

Ferry vouchers and transport to/from Naxos ferry were all in order. We could have handled these easily ourselves but a couple in our group liked having the support of KimKim in case something went wrong (it didn't). The ferry boarding process is a bit disorganized but if you have ferry experience in your travels and go with the flow of passengers you're fine. Pay attention to announcements (in Greek) as you approach your destination, especially if you have a car, and go to the loading/unloading deck as it can take over five minutes to get to the boat exit and the ferries sometimes only stop for a few minutes. You may not make it off if you wait in your seat for the boat to dock.

Between our research and the help of KimKim, this was a custom tour. While it was interesting and the guide very professional and knowledgeable, we would probably save a day and skip Paros as it's very similar to Naxos and we did not wish to just see more ruins. Paros villages seemed to have more of the original narrow streets and architecture than Naxos, but that atmosphere can be found on Naxos as well.

The guide (Magdalena?) was exceptional and knowledgeable. When she realized that not many of our group of 12 were deeply into mythology, she adjusted and concentrated on pertinent facts about the Acropolis with just interspersed mythology references which were interesting. She did her best to maneuver through crowds, gained us immediate entrance to a couple areas that had lines, and several times we were off by ourselves near shade on a hot day.

Leo the guide was very thorough and knowledgeable, not just about the food we sampled but also about the eating habits and daily lives of the average resident. He knew well the story of Athens and Greece and answered numerous questions about history. We walked several miles and he made sure we were all up to the task. The shopkeepers were friendly and appeared to like Leo. He took us to the old town with the street markets, where local fishmongers, butchers and produce stalls had all types of fresh and dried food on display.
