On arrival at the Mimosa, we were pleased with our rooms and the cleanliness of them. They were big enough for me and my son. The furniture was modern and the view was fantastic, overlooking the main road and beach. During the first night there was a lot of noise from the main strip, which considering we had stayed across the road in the previous year, was surprising. The patio doors did not have good sound proofing. What was even worse was that the cleaner and her trolley were very noisy every morning from 8am!! She often shouted at the top of her voice to other cleaners without any thought of the guests and on a few occasion actually got into arguments with guests when they asked her to be quiet. A big plus was that the rooms were cleaned almost daily and fresh towels were left.
We were half board, getting our breakfast (which despite the cleaner’s best efforts) we only got up for twice. This was very nice, fresh toast and either scrambled eggs or beans to order. The evening meals were disappointing, with the chicken being under cooked, prawns being pink and transparent, and there rarely being the full children’s menu available. The service was rushed and at times unfriendly, and trying to get served drinks at your table near impossible. If you are not a fussy eater then you will probably find enough variety on the menu to keep you satisfied.
The rooms were very warm, but air conditioning was available for 6euros per day (a little expensive if you are staying for 14 days)
The location of the hotel was excellent, everything on your doorstep, but having visited Sidari for 8 years, this is my least favorite accommodation. | |

Hotel was spotless, rooms cleaned daily, bathroom had a proper shower cubicle not your usual hole in the floor.
Everywhere tiled out. looked as though it had just been done.
Hotel in three blocks and the rear was still being refurbished.
Two pools, cleaned every morning.
poolside snacks available all day.
Waiters very efficent. Worked from 730 til after 2300.
Choice of 3 cooked breakfasts (charged extra) or ceral, fruit, toast.
choice of 3 main meals but only one dessert.
Hotel full of "oldies" when we were there but entertainment on nightly from karaoke to bingo, quiz nights to club singers. sky news on all day so you got the breakfast headlines.
Our hotel room faced the front with view of the beach and main street to the right. Not too noisy at night.
Ideally situated and suitable for families.
Would go back here.

Just got back from a week staying at the Mimosa. I was a little worried to begin with having read fairly negative reviews of the hotel. However both myself and my partner were very impressed with it, the hotel, rooms pools, food etc was really nice and very high quality, perfect for everyone! The hotel was brilliant, the reception was big and spacious, first impressions were very impressive with friendly staff welcoming us, despite arriving in the early hours of the morning. The pool, surrounding area and reception/bar were all very clean and spacious. The room we had was in the front block and although a little on the small side, was very clean and modern. The sheets were changed every other day and the maid emptied out the bins every day. There was a hairdryer included in our room and i assume it is the same in each other room. We did have a shower curtain (unusual in greece as they are not usually provided as the greek people believe they harbour bacteria, it is the same with bath mats) although the shower did get a little slippery so be careful! the bathroom did tend to get a little flooded but this is again very usual for greece and it drains away eventually. Breakfast was served between 8am - 10am and is standard continental style, toast, cereal, scrambled eggs on toast, beans on toast, crossiant and fruit salad - simple but nice, a full breakfast and bacon/sausage sandwiches are also available at a small charge. The evening meal is three courses with a choice of 4 starters, 4 main courses and 2 desserts. The meals are not huge but are enough to fill you up. The food we had here (including the impressive snack menu) were lovely. Overall this was a fantastic holiday, the location of the hotel was amazing, right accross from the beach and in the middle of the action. It's not too noisy although the entertainment at the hotel occasionally went on quite late. I would definately come back here next year. 10 out of 10 in all aspects!! | |

I have just returned home from two weeks at the mimosa. This was the third time I have stayed here and it was everything I remembered it being. I took my mate with me for the first time and we both had such a laugh. The room overlooked the sea and was lovely to wake up to in the morning. The hotel was clean and the food was lovely, although we never made it up for breakfast!! But most importantly the staff at the hotel were outstanding. Everyone was always so friendly and always made an effort to speak to you and have a laugh, no matter how many hours they worked a day. The waiters and waiteress (sorry don't want to attempt to spell your names!! ) were great and the service always came with a smile. Special mention to Spiros behind the bar who was fab and you were guaranteed a laugh, especially if bingo was on!! I have booked to go back in October and am counting the days!!Best holiday ever, can't wait to see you all again. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | |

This hotel is very central about 2mins to beach but if you have the room on front you will be able to see the sea | |

| Myself and my partner Lee, 36 & 37, have just returned from the Mimosa Hotel on the 21 September 2004. We felt that the location was excellent as were all the staff, they could not do enough for you. The room was very clean and quite spacious compared to other Hotels we have stayed in on other Greek Islands. We didn't make breakfast,and we only had one evening meal as we prefer to explore the resort and try out other restaurants. The meal we did have was excellent though, as were all the restaurants. We particularly enjoyed the Olympic restaurant, where the staff entertained their guests with Greek fire dancing several times a night. The only downfall with the Hotel was that it had Karaoke on every night, which was a bit tedious after a while. On the whole, an excellent holiday! | ||||||||||
