Stayed at City Lion by Semavi in a two story condo with the bedroom upstairs. The bed was comfy; however the shower is located next to the bed which was a little strange. Staff were friendly and helpful. Parking is not easy; however, there are parkades nearby.

We had a great stay at the Sea Lion. The apartment is new and very nice. It was located in a great spot that made everything we wanted to see and do easily walkable. We were greeted by friendly staff who showed us to our room and provided us with room instructions and area recommendations for dining and sight seeing. Great Experience! We would definitely recommend this hotel to everyone!

We wish we had more time to stay at this lovely hotel! Smack downtown and minutes away from museum, harbor, great food and sightseeing. Our ground floor apartment had a garden and it was spacious, clean and with a very comfortable bed and nice bathroom. The only caution I have is to not attempt to reach the place by your own car… very tight roads and nowhere to really park to unload so get a cab instead and ditch the car at the airport before you arrive.

City lion was by far the best experience we’ve ever had in Greece. The staff was so accommodating even months in advance, and were the friendliest people I’ve ever met. The apartments themselves were very beautiful, Clean, Modern, and made you feel at home away from home. They provided us with water, endless towels as needed, A crib for the baby, and were gracious to get the rooms ready for an early check-in. We are already planning our next trip and will be staying at this specific hotel. Thank your so much
