We were so fortunate to find a room available at the Karras Star. We had a rental home with no air conditioning and had to leave due to the heat. Karras was cool, clean and safe. And the staff was very friendly especially the daily housekeepers, and Greg at reception. THANKS

Great Place to stay and relax
The stay in the hotel was comfortable. Starting with the distance from the airport , you should know that it takes around 1hour and 30 minutes to get there. The hotel is in the best area of the island. Although far from therma and agios kirikos. The beaches nearby are great , sandy and clean.The hotel is also close to evdilos which is a nice port town. It is better to stay on this side of the island even if the airport is far. The hotel looks great. Rooms are clean ( some insects but that is because of the greenery nearby). Air conditioning and bathroom are good. Breakfast is typical and with good variety. The pool is suitable and the pool deck is big enough. Staff is nice and when you ask for something they are very helpful. Parking spots are limited but on the road beside tue hotel there is a lot of space. Ask the reception for directions to nice taverns nearby. An evening by the pool is also recommended. The overall value for price is great. Would stay again if in that beautiful island.

A lovely hotel run by the most charming and helpful family. A little bit away from the main beaches and town of Armenistis so you do need to rent a car. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.

Piscina bellissima, anche se con un mare come quello di Ikaria è un sacrilegio! Stanze curate ma, considerato il costo, mancavano le bottigliette di bagno schiuma, un minimo d'acqua nel frigo e la prima colazione era a pagamento.

Dear Sir/ Madame, We are very glad that you enjoyed our pool and thank you for your nice comments! As it concerns the amenities, for ecological reasons, we have decide not to have any small bottles and instead of that we have dispensers in the shower with sampoo and shower cream. Once again a sincere thank you and look forward to welcoming you back at Karras Star hotel in the near future. With kind regards, Effie & Niki Karra.

la struttura era gestita da delle persone veramente speciali , servizievoli , premurose e non trovo altri aggettivi . le stanze erano arredate con gusto pulite . la vista dal terrazzo magnifica. non ho usufruito della bellissima piscina ma poco importa. unico neo , ma che non e dipeso dalla direzione dell'hotel i vicini un po rumorosi , ma si sa quando sei in vacanza ti puo capitare anche questo

Hotel très correct sans goût et sans saveur.
Hotel très correct sans goût et sans saveur. Rien à redire sur la chambre avec terrasse et vue sur mer (lointaine). Points plutôt gênants: parking exigu et vite rempli. La vue sur mer c'est bien, mais sans la plage (plages à plusieurs kilomètres). Petit-déjeuner très moyen. L’hôtel est isolé en bord de route (plutôt bruyante parfois). Enfin, la piscine est plutôt réservée aux ébats des enfants et de leurs parents. C'est un avis très personnel, car ce type d’hôtel correspondra aux goûts de la majorité des touristes, grecs notamment.

Toller und großer Pool. Super Service am Pool wurde mehrmals täglich kostenloses Wasser serviert . Schöne Bepflanzung . Gutes Essen . Einzig die Straße direkt daneben ist recht laut . Mit geschlossenen Fenster und Klimaanlage ist das aber kein Problem .

Woulderfull choice
Hotel molto confortevole, con personale eccellente, ti aiuta in tutte le tue necessità, ha anche prenotato un hotel e un ferry per noi e ci ha trovato una persona per portarci ad una Spiaggia visto che gli autobus non raggiungevano quel posto ed il taxi era costoso. Pur essendo in un punto lontano dal centro più vicino, se non hai la macchina, c'è l'autobus che ferma proprio davanti all'hotel. Tutte le spiagge più belle sono sulla costa nord dell'isola. Sconsiglio Aghio Kirikos e Thema, posti costosi e fatiscenti, proprio brutti. L'hotel ha anche la piscina, noi non l'abbiamo mai usata. Fanno la raccolta differenziata e usano prodotti non inquinanti e sani anche per lavare la biancheria. Unica pecca la doccia che ha la tenda e non il box.
