The hotel is well located with restaurants and beach right near. The staff is very helpful and friendly. The restaurant manager, Dimitros, gave us a best choice of the fish restaurants in Lagade, where we enjoyed a lot the local food. Rooms are outdated and should be renovated, but it didn't affect our great stay at this hotel. By my opinion, if you are going to Chios, it is the best option to stay due the beach and pool. The breakfast/dinner/supper has a lot to choose from and the service is highly rated. Overall, we had a good time and will return to this property if will be back to Chios.

This was our third time at this hotel. The rooms and plumbing could use some updating. Has parking but if the hotel hosts private events which happens often parking is definitely a problem!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I absolutely enjoyed my visit to Golden Sands Hotel. Beginning with the excellent staff communications, and their personal welcome, and continuing with the room accomodations, and the pool overlooking the beach. I was there for a wedding party, and I was very happy with my hotel choice. As a solo "senior" woman, it is important to me to feel safe, to know that someone cares about my comfort and well-being. This is all true at the Golden Sands Hotel. I recommend it highly and can't wait to visit again!

The location of the hotel was so nice however as many other hotels or buildings in island the building was so old. However the rooms and the hotel in general was clean. The breakfast was poor. We did not have the chance to swim in sea or pool due to poor weather conditions. The staff was so kind and friendly.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The staff are great, but it looks and feels like the owners have not spent a cent on it since it was built in the 70’s. So, it is tired. There’s nothing wrong with it - it is clean, staff are friendly and efficient, but it is not up to modern standards.

Great location. Terrible old hard matresses. College dorm beds. A little investment would go a long way. Great grounds keepers. Great staff ar front desk. Great breakfast . Rooms needs painting and furniture upgrade. Excellent laundry service. Parking a nightmare. If they put decent beds and pillows and some paint in the rooms it would be much better. i would still reccomend the hotel for the location , great staff and great breakfast

Temizlik kötü değil aslında. Sadece tadilat anlamında rötuş ihtiyacı var. Temizlik o yüzden görünmüyor. Mesela küvet kaldırılmalı, perdeli olunca temizlik belli olmuyor. Genel anlamda çok beğendim. Özellikle resepsiyon çalışanları daha ilgili olması gerekiyor. Ben kendim de hizmet sektörü yöneticiliği yaptığım için algı da seçiciliğim fazlaydı belki😊 Kahvaltı da açık büfe düzeni daha şık olmasını tavsiye ederim. Bunun için para gerekmez, ufak dokunuşlara ihtiyaç var. Masa düzeni daha düzenli olmalı ufak dokunuşlarla ve değişikliklerle.

Hemen önünden kalkan otobüslerle merkeze çok rahat ulaşıyorsunuz. Taksi kullanırsanız 14-15 Euro tutuyor. Deniz sığı ve kum, çocuklu aileler için harika. Kahvaltısı güzel çeşitli. Çok fazla Türk misafiri olduğundan çay demlenirse çok güzel olur. Otel eski yenilenmeye ihtiyacı var. Banyodaki duş perdeleri, musluk, duş çok eski ve bakımsız. Havuzun temizliğine dikkat edilmesi gerekir.
