Pros
  • Located near the Glyfada Golf Course
  • Offers conference facilities

Cons
  • Located well outside of central Athens - which may not be a "con" at all

  • Rated as a 4-star hotel
  • Just 58 rooms gives it a small-hotel feel.
  • Discounts offered for repeat customers.
  • A special "Sweetheart Getaway" is ideal for couples and honeymooners.

  • The hotel also offers a free shuttle service to and from the airport, saving the Euro 30 or 40 taxi.

Guide Review - Palmyra Beach Hotel

The Glyfada area outside of Athens and bordering Piraeus is a land of hotels and restaurants catering to primarily foreign visitors. When boisterous Athens sounds like too much to handle, staying just outside the city can be inviting, especially with the improved public transportation to Athens.
