Dissappointing with low level of service
It used to be a nice hotel, having stayed in the past as well. I saw a totally different hotel, with a low quality level of service. What really surprised me is that i had no reply to questions raised (by mail), just a reply by the reception that it probably skipped their attention, without wondering about the content. I keep as secondary details the unjustified delays in the room service, breakfast, reception etc. The hotel used to be a jewel for the area and an example of hospitality, but what i saw was dissappointing. And, please, do not advertise vip access privileges if they are not offerred.

The requests of our guests are very important to us and we try all our best to fulfill them all. Following your review we have checked our records again, though we have not received an email, maybe it was on the spam folder or due to an internet failure the email was not delivered. If we had received your request we would definitely have replied to you. Furthermore, we are saddened that you encountered delays in our services from certain departments. We wish to offer our guests our 5* services therefore we will review internally your feedback on these issues. Lastly, please allow us to confirm the vip services we offer to this exclusive expedia group which were also delivered to you on the second day including extra vip treatment. Services that are offered upon availability could not be considered as not delivered. We would appreciate if you would give us a chance to welcome you again in our hotel and we are certain that we will meet your expectations and restore your faith in us. Kind regards, The Hotel Management

Very dated not worth your money.
Building condition is bad, we stayed in a suite and we could still here everyone walking even through two doors. The atrium also doesnt help since the restaurant noise and smell reaches all rooms. The shower had inconsistent water, often it took 10 mins for warm water to arrive.

Response from gs on Oct 19, 2021
Dear Ishita, We offer our sincere apologies that you didn’t have a perfect stay. Even though the hotel building is well maintained, we encountered some issues the last couple of days with the hot water supplies which we were able to resolve in the end. Taking this into consideration, we agree that some elements of the service you received were not acceptable and in no way reflective of the highest level of service that we pride ourselves on providing. Our priority is to restore your faith in Grand Serai Congress & Spa and with this in mind, we look forward to the opportunity of welcoming you back in the near future. Best regards, The Hotel Management

We always stay at the Gran Serai when visiting ioannina city. A pleasure as always. The staff are a pleasure the hotel is conveniently based in the city providing a pleasant walk to the centre and the lake. The rooms are spotlessly clean as is the rest of the hotel. Breakfast is a feast and the bar provides a limited menu of high standard salads and snacks. We would never consider staying at another hotel.

It was a nice experience. Free parking offered by the hotel. There was big variety in the breakfast offered. Both room and swimming pool quite clean. Very polite and pleasant staff. The only problem was that the air-conditioning system was rather weak (or adjusted to work at low power) so the temperature in the room was just moderate and not really cool.

Great location and spacious room
Hotel is in a great location. The room was quite large and the bed very comfortable. Although the weather wasn't very hot, we did have a swim in the pool, which we really liked. Breakfast was nice with lots to choose from, however the staff looked miserable and did not smile once. I couldn't even get their attention to ask for a coffee. For the money you pay to stay at this hotel, i think that staff should be more friendly.

Great Hotel
The hotel is beautiful, and was especially so because of the Christmas decorations. The weather was cold and snowy, so it was hard to get around town. Staff was helpful in giving close suggestions and offering to call restaurants for us. Beds were very comfortable. Only suggestion is that the parking lot be cleared in snow because it was very hard to cross with all of the slush.
