Doryssa Seaside Resort

Nice hotel, family orientated next to beach, close to town just 10min walk

Very nice experience . Short though. The facilities were very nice and the staff very friendly. The room was very ‘warm’ and clean . Very nice located ... close to Pythagorio , to the port and airport.

Very nice place good for families with kids excellent beach

We stayed at the Doryssa in a sea view standard room. Overall we loved our stay. The bed was comfortable and the view was amazing. Rooms are lacking some basic things you would find in other hotels like shampoo, conditioner, an iron and a kettle so be prepared for that. (We were also unable to get an iron from housekeeping due to “safety concerns” but you can send you clothes out to be pressed if you’re desperate) The hotel is about a 10 minute walk into Pythagorio town via the path or along the beautiful beach. Totally recommend the hotel.

Beautiful in every way! Hotel staff were friendly and helpful. Food was amazing!

Check in was easy. The room was small, but met our needs. The beach access was great and the padded loungers were super comfortable, however there was an additional charge for using them. The food was okay, but expensive. They issue beach towels every two days, so this meant everyone hung their towels over the balconies to dry. This obviously detracted from the appearance of the lodging facilities. The dining area for guests, not on the all-inclusive plan, was lovely and the breakfast buffet was good. I have been told it is the nicest lodging on the island.

Very packaged moderate level all inclusive. Female staff excellent. Men need to work on Cust service. Attempts to be luxury but not.

Overall, it's a nice hotel with great pool and beach. Although the beach beds cost 3 Euro per person per day because the hotel rents the beach from the city. I would recommend they make this cost transparent to the customer and include it in the room rate. Food was good but they appeared understaffed in the waiter area. Bonus was they upgraded our room at no charge from a garden to sea view...thanks!

If you like all inclusive hotels with global travel groups and you are willing to sacrifice comfort (i.e. we will not change your towels for the beach except once or maybe twice during you stay, mediocre food, and wine by the tetra pack), then it is a good enough offering as the beach and pool are nice. However if you are paying a real price I suggest you book at 2 star hotel on the island as it will be more enjoyable.

Hotel is a family-friendly resort type, so this meant a lot of babies and kids of all ages running around, and this was a bit much for us. We hardly stayed at the hotel beachfront for this reason, but also because Samos has superb secluded beaches nearby and other parts of the island---in fact, the beaches is what merits coming back to this island. Of course, the historical aspects of Samos are purely fantastic, that merit great attention, and unfortunately, these were not highlighted by hotel.
