A small, intimate complex with bags of charm, the 3-star Hotel Votsalakia is the perfect choice for a relaxing holiday in
Samos. Located on a hillside framed with a dramatic mountainous backdrop, the hotel affords spectacular views out over the bay of Amoopi. The hotel is built in the typical Greek style, with small low-rise white washed buildings, terracotta tiled roofs and bright blue shuttered windows. Reviews frequently praise cleanliness of the rooms, the friendliness of the staff and the lovely, laidback atmosphere. If you’re looking for a peaceful holiday in beautiful surroundings, this is a great choice.
Location
The Hotel Votsalakia is situated in a slightly elevated position just 50m from the long pebbly beach. The resort centre of
Kambos, with its bars, restaurants and shops is 100m away. Those who wish to explore the island will find Samos Town around an hour’s drive away; here you’ll find a bustling harbour front with plenty of seafood restaurants, shady squares, narrow winding streets, Venetian mansions and taverns that date from a bygone era. The picturesque towns of Pythigoria and Kokkali are also well worth a visit – to fully enjoy all the island has to offer car hire is recommended.
