Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Pier Hotel enjoys a fantastic location with easy access to the golden beach and harbor, offering stunning views from many rooms, including the spacious family rooms. The breakfast receives high praise, particularly the grill, along with a large selection of pastries, cereals and fruit; the hotel also caters well for allergies. Some guests have found the food quality at lunch to be inconsistent. guests find the rooms well-equipped, spotlessly clean, and appreciate the comfortable beds and facilities like the hairdryer and tea making.

the breakfast was good and the bar offered a decent selection..
I found the room quite warm. There was no air conditioning, and the desk fan provided did little to help. Sleeping with the window open wasn't an option either, as the seagulls woke me up early.

The location is great, offering access to the port and the golden beach. I had a super clean, quiet room on the third floor. Breakfast was both delicious and generous. The staff were professional and seemed to care about the hotel.

The hotel's situation near the working port and beach provides an interesting and convenient mix of scenery and activities, I must say. I had easy access to both the bustling harbor area and the relaxing coastal environment.

the staff seemed friendly and helpful, which I appreciate.
My room was TOO warm, even with the provided fan. the bathroom floor also reminded me of it needed better cleaning. I saw some hairs there. I think updating the towels is important, there was only one hand towel in my room when I arrived.
