Philoxenia Hotel

Restaurant only operates in summer, limited facilities in room

Great oversized balconies and spacious rooms. So glad we found this place.

I have stayed at this hotel multiple times and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a hotel on the island of Evia and in the greater Chalkis area. The hotel provides great value but more importantly the staff are always welcoming, friendly and ready to assist with just about anything. The hotel is located meters from the beach and almost every room has a view of the sea with a seating area on your balcony. We enjoyed the complimentary and varied breakfast selection each morning. There is ample parking or if you are using public transportation the bus stop is right next to the hotel.

Had an enjoyable holiday at Evia. Hotel is good. TV sets are old fashioned but we never switched them on. Friendly personnel who is always ready to help. Cleaning every day and no question to the quality. Food served at breakfasts might have been more various - but when you consider cost I paid for the room and service - I think that I might have simply purchase only bed without breakfast and the fee would be still attractive. Mainly local people are visiting this place - so we had no one to speak in Russian to (my native language) and I didn't spot any British or German people around this island. While we had no problem to make an order in the nearby taverna or communicate our needs to the staff in the hotel or in the small convenience store. Most people speak English. We rented a car (from a local firm - with pick up/drop off at Athens airport) so we visited all beaches in Evia and even at Peloponnese. Good place is Lihadonisia - sandy beach and clean water.
