Just read the latest review on the Athina on TA, we're there for the first time 1st October, does not inspire us with confidence.!!

Injerbreck,

George is a nice guy with a dry sense of humour. Don't take too much notice of the review, all the staff at the Athina are nice. I always find that if you are pleasant/polite to others then mostly they are ok with you.  Some people can be really rude to waiters/staff and don't like it when they are not willing to put up with it. We stayed at Athina in 2008 [this year stayed at Tsaros] but we went to say hello to Spiros the bar man this August and whilst there George came over to say hello, quite flattered that he remembered us from 2 years ago, he really is a lovely genuine person. You have nothing to worry about.

From our own experiences we find it is always best to make your own mind up. Some people who post on various sites may have had a bad experience but that doesn't mean it is the norm. Have a great time :)

Ok everybody, guess we are reassured, we like to treat  people as we would like to be treated and not talk down to anybody, do we need to take our own pillows though?.

Injerbreck, the pillows are quite firm but to be honest we did'nt have a problem with them. Anyway after staying out late and having a brilliant time I could have slept stood up. Who cares about pillows when there is an holiday to enjoy. :) :)

We went into the Athina this year to say hello to the staff again, new bigger shop area there, food reports from people staying there are good!
Olga still behind reception - she is great!
All staff and Manager are really nice, Kostas the Poolbar Manager still rarely smiles, but he is always great, (ten points if you can make him smile!!),
the two sons are also good, especially George!!
Lovely Hotel!!

Forgot to say - want an ice cream from the pool bar - get George or the younger brother to serve you!
The ice-cream portions are bigger than if Kostas does it!! LOL!!

We had lunch there a few times - nice place for lunch time snacks, mind you so is Aquarios Bar just next door!! (Good value Baguettes).
I took some pictures around the Athina and will post soon on Facebook - I'll try to remember to put a link on here!

Nice place to stay - no question - quiet in the evenings - plenty of life 2 mins walk away!
