Platania Vacations from $1,217

The breakfast at The Botany is truly exceptional—easily better than most cafés and on par with, if not superior to, many comparable hotels I’ve stayed at. The quality, variety, and execution were outstanding, and it’s clear there’s an exemplary chef behind it. It honestly goes beyond words. Room service was reasonable. One small improvement would be the replenishment of basic amenities such as bottled water, body cream and toothpaste during housekeeping, without needing to request them. That said, the experience overall was still exceptional, largely because the breakfast alone set a remarkably high standard.

staff were very nice, but hotel rooms are old!

Fantastic clean, beautiful rooms, with every possible amenity provided. Hotel facilities were first class, the odd lapse of service at breakfast but staff generally very good. I would highly recommend staying.

The location is absolutely beautiful, the food delicious and the staff were amazing and helpful. They even packed us takeaway breakfasts when we had early morning excursions. Not to mention the stunning beach and the wonderful view of the Temple of Poseidon. We visited at the end of the September and the water was still so warm. Such a hidden gem. We didn't want to leave.

The staff were outstanding. Warm and friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Room was clean and cosy and food excellent.
