Old school bohemian charm in Matala
A very comfortable, slightly quirky, original and welcoming stay at an independent hotel with some original charm! It’s not super slick but it is cute and comfy and charming in an old school hippy Matala style and I liked it.

Conveniently located
Small but comfortable room with attached balcony/patio a short walk to main beach and plaza. Friendly, efficient staff. Plenty of shaded seating by the pool. Breakfast is adequate but underwhelming. Parking is on site. Smoking is evidently allowed in all rooms.

Siamo una coppia, abbiamo soggiornato 2 notti all'hotel neos. L'hotel è molto semplice, non è per persone troppo esogenti sicuramente ma per poche notti di passaggio può andare. Colazione buona e abbondante ma alle 10 tolgono tutto anche stai ancora mangiando!
