    Cute place to stay with unbeatable location on local buses and local food. Location next to the beach and the main street, and airport. For tea or coffee visit Justin's Cafe Bar nearby.

    Our rooms were neat with tea or coffee, the balcony plus floors below as expected. Everything was nice, yet a few employees were surly.

    The value for money at Hotel Sofia was excellent and the room was clean and comfortable. The location of the hotel was ideal, situated on a quiet road with secure parking. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our stay.

    The morning meal could have been improved with a wider variety of options.

    We had a fantastic stay at Hotel Sofia. The location was incredibly convenient, just a short walk from the beach. The staff was pleasant and friendly, and the included parking arrangement was a huge plus. The room itself was beautiful, with a balcony and comfortable sleeping arrangements. The daily cleaning service ensured everything was kept tidy, and the breakfast provided in the morning was delicious. We also enjoyed the abundance of restaurants and souvenir shops in the nearby area. we highly recommend Hotel Sofia for a peaceful and enjoyable stay in Matala.

    There were no negatives during our stay. 👍🏼

    During my stay at a wonderful hotel in Matala, I experienced exceptional convenience and comfort. Upon arrival, I appreciated the quick and efficient check-in process. Although there was no parking directly at the hotel, unloading our car right in front made it hassle-free. The hotel even provided a voucher for parking just a short walk away. The cleanliness of the room and bathroom was impeccable, and the back porch with a drying rack for our wet swimsuits was a thoughtful touch. The front room had a cozy double bed while the second room, separated by a door, had a bunk bed for the kids and a useful kitchenette with pots and pans. The air conditioning in the front room kept us cool, and the fast WiFi was a bonus. The hotel also provided towels, mats, and a water air mattress for the beach. I highly recommend this well-situated and welcoming hotel experience.

    our recent stay in matala was pleasant, but our experience at sofia exceeded expectations. the friendly staff and convenient location made it a great choice. we loved the lovely garden for breakfast and the feeling of being in greek countryside.

    For the price we paid, Hotel Sofia definitely exceeded our expectations. The room was clean, cozy, and had a lovely balcony. The location was perfect, just a two-minute walk to the beautiful beach. The staff were incredibly friendly and always available to help with any questions or needs we had.

    The only thing that could have made the breakfast better was a wider variety of items.

    I recently stayed at a centrally located hotel, Sofia, for my vacation. The check-in process was friendly and efficient. The room was adequately sized with a balcony, and there was a nice beach just a minute walk away. The price of the room was reasonable, and the staff were very friendly and helpful in providing recommendations and arranging any further vacation plans.

    I can't recommend highly enough this hotel.
