Olive Press Hotel & Apartments

Jet2 holiday. But worried about reviews. I shouldn’t have been. If you want a laid back Greek holiday in an amazing location- this is it. Not 5 star, but you are literally on the sea and 5 mins walk to shops, bars, restaurants Our room had a balcony over the sea. Book this if you can. Breakfast was fine- didn’t vary any day- but you sit right by the sea. Room- good air con and WiFi. But our bathroom was one, but clean. So who cares? Pool area and garden in front of sea. Just wow. They have refurbished this over season with new beds. Man going round tidying all day. They could make hotel 5 star easily- upgrade bathrooms, make the man serving pool drinks from bar more visibie( he was sometimes hard to find) and cut back on non residents using pool and not buying any drinks etc. Sea right outside garden area big rocky so go to town side- easier to get in, wear shoes on water

Booked with jet2. Good points 1- location. Right by sea and short walk to numerous bars and restaurants. Perfect 2- garden area and pool have been renovated. New furniture. Cleaned daily. Amazing to be by the sea. 3- breakfast area by sea. Buffet service. Food same each day but fine- fruit, cheese pie, eggs 4- room cleaned daily with good WiFi Bad points- 1- bathrooms need refurbish. Are ok but old 2- pool used by non residents so can get busy with large family groups using it. The hotel should try to restrict this. would I recommend this hotel - yes

We had a lovely room, with a small balcony,(from where you could view amazing sunsets) with the sound of the sea lapping up the pebbles. Very clean, daily change of towels, and regular clean bedding. Beautiful setting with plenty of good local places to eat, however , sadly the hotel does not have a restaurant, but provides an ok breakfast sat overlooking the bay. Free aircon, or at least included in room price! Very helpful staff, We only had to ask and we were provided with a Kettle and extra pillows. The only real problem was that the bus from airport stopped a 10 minute walk down a cobbled street away, so a challenge if you have heavy suitcases, even wheeled ones! on the whole a lovely restful comfortable hotel, which can be seen all over the town by its tall chimney.

Lovey location in pretty old building. However we would not call this a hotel more B & B as lacking certain facilities like no bar in main building, no beach towels, no glass in room very basic rooms. The pool was major concerned as dirty grime around sites (I took video ) as my wife got bladder infection after 3 days into using the pool the pool is used by non residents whom turned up groups of 8-10 taking up beds & bringing own food & local children ( unsupervised ) using the pool when signs up saying only only food purchased on property can be consumed & children must be supervised at all times. Sunbeds in poor condition. Such a shame as this property could be exceptional unique place to stay.

Molyvos is very pretty and the olive press could be amazing. Our room didn't have a balcony which I was aware of when booking. The room had 2 twin beds and we thought it would be a double. The lady on reception said none if the rooms had double beds which I don't think is true. The room had a lovely view upto the castle but could only be seen when leaning out of the window. The room was exceptionally small. The bathroom was a shower tray with a hand held shower head with one of those shower curtains which stick to your legs and the floor was soaked every time it was used. Horrible. The mini fridge was in a built in cupboard which was the tiny wardrobe area . It appeared to be overheating as the top of it got quite hot and was like an airing cupboard for your clothes !! The steps leading upto the room were in disrepair and I nearly fell on the loose brick on the edge of the steps. It was never moved in the week we were there. The swimming pool area could be a lot better. It looked quite tatty and neglected. Lots of broken, uncomfortable sun beds. The bar man was always busy talking to his friends around the bar or on his phone. Pleasant enough but wouldn't hurt to go around and make everything neat and tidy and offer drinks every hour or so. He had time !! The pool was located a little walk to the bar . No food was available either . A shame as it could be so much nicer. I did feel the staff were not particularly friendly either. They seemed to have a couldn't be bothered attitude. On the other hand breakfast was lovely. Gorgeous greek lady who kept an eye on the buffet and topped everything up as needed. Always smiling and cleaning. Beautiful setting for breakfast by the sea. That was a lovely experience. I would stay again if the price was right and in a different room with an upgraded bathroom. Lovely location. It needs some loving attention, some upgrading and management to sort out their staff. Then it would be the best hotel in Molyvos.

Did not stay at the hotel . Used the pool and poolside facilities. Nice pool ,great view Ignorant unnatentive staff just could not be bothered not at all welcoming No soap in toilet Definately needs a litter pick
