Hotel Corinthia Baska

Very large, renovated, clean facility. Abundant, good food.

Unfortunately, the experience did not live up to the expectations based on the website. First of all, the facility is dated and shows all of its years. The Valamar chain seems to have taken it over from a previous owner (it had a different name before), but it doesn't seem to have invested much in it. In particular, the hallways and rooms are cramped and unwelcoming, with peeling walls and minimal furnishings. But the worst thing is the cafeteria service (the term is appropriate). The hotel is a war machine aimed at massification, and the cafeteria hall is perpetually crowded with hundreds of people who form long lines to serve themselves at the buffet, only to then sit at tables so close to one another that it makes it problematic to pass between them. I hadn't remembered anything like this since my military service days! The food, moreover, is clearly designed for Northern European tastes, and it is practically impossible to find anything that isn't drowning in strange sauces and gravies. Not to mention that, despite being on an island, I didn't find any traces of fish. The only positive note is the staff, always kind and attentive. But the poor things, they couldn't do much more than that. It's a shame, because the place itself is beautiful.

Beautiful experience! Finally a TRUE vacation without worries. Very nice and clean hotel, friendly and courteous staff ready to meet every need. Rooms beautifully furnished and functional spaces. Excellent and varied food, never repetitive, we had the full package. The lounge area and the game room for our daughters, where they went to relax, were also very nice. The heated indoor pool saved us one afternoon when the weather outside was not nice. Clear sea just a few steps away with a promenade for an evening stroll. What can I say, if I can, I will return because for me it was everything I needed!
