Guest reviews for Aelius Hotel & Spa

Family (1)
4 out of 5
Nice and compact hotel. Room was simple but functional and clean. Staff was very friendly. We had all incluse and food was ok but the drinks (soft drinks) were quite diluted. Also spa's staff was professional and the treatments were fantastic. We took massages, facial and body treatments. There were a shop in the same building as the hotel. This shop had very reasonably prices (1,5 l bottled water 0,5 e). Hotel has a free minibus which takes to the nearest beach. Beach was ok. Umbrella with two chairs were 6 e. Would go again to this hotel.
