| hi
me and my two friends ( all 18) stayed in the hercules in august 06 and absolutly loved it! we were abit worried from some of the comments we heard and although it is very basic we grew to love it cause we made it our own! an deffo wana go back next year! we absolutly loved the pool and bar and spent all our day there and felt completely relaxed and comfortable and all the staff are great! if you buy a drink at the bar you get to spend all day there for free, we were there for 2 weeks and it was abit cramped and there was no air con (apart from a hired fan from the bar, because theres no reception) but you only have to sleep there dont you! we also had a nice little balcony with a gud view of the sea, fridge and all the necessities. so overall we would defo reccomend these apartments as there right in the town centre but some how really quiet! we loved every minuite of our holiday!  | ||||||||||

My wife and I stayed at Hercules Studios August 2006. The apartments are basic but do contain all the essential items. The cleaners do make every effort to keep the apartments as clean as possible.The accommodation makes an ideal base if you are touring the island.However if you hire a car there is no where nearby to park it unless you hire it from the local Kassiopi Car Hire who allow customers to park their cars in a plot at the bottom of the slope leading up to the apartments. | ||||||||||

i've jsut returned from a 2 week holiday in Kassiopi ans stayed at the Hercules apartment/studios. after reading some reviews on other sites i was a bit reluctanct to stay here but now i've been i am glad i did. the apartments are basic, but this is Greece and you get what you pay for. Although they were basic, there was nothing we were short of and they were cleaned regularly and provided a good base. you can use the sunny pool which is next to the apartments which is a great pool, 2 Euro's for a sun bed and you get a free drink, the family that run the pool are lovely and welcoming! The apartments are down a small road and then you are in the middle of everything, they couldn't be any better placed as they are quiet but still near everything thats goin on. The small hill to the apartments that has recieved many complaints isnt too bad, understandable if you have walking difficulties, but for anyone relatively fit it is not a problem at all, takes a minute to get up. Another concern we had before we went was that in the olympic brochure it suggested a torch to get back at night, we didnt find this necassery as the pool is well lit.
all in all the apartments were very clean and our stay at hercules was good, i would use them again as it is lose to evrything and good value for money, the staff are extremely friendly and effecient.
Olympic Rep was there if needed and very pleasant. | ||||||||||

  I was there in July 2005 with a freind for two weeks. The facilities are basic but are practical for the job needed doing (kitchen picture given). I read some reviews before I went out there and was worried about turning 'green' in the pool but its safe to say that I did not experience anything of the sort...The beach is just around the corner anyway and is absolutey lovely-pebbles but a crystal blue sea. The staff are wonderful at maintaining the place- I found that the cleaning side of things was great-everything was spotless on cleaning days-twice a week. Enough for us! We stayed in no.14 with a great view of the hills-the balcony was great to have. There is a hill up to the apartments but its not drastically steep or long-its manageable. Overall its a safe base for an enjoyable active holiday. | ||||||||||

It was our second visit to Kassiopi and stayed at the Hercules Studios (Room 4) from May 16th - 23rd. We were not disappointed! Before hand we were a bit apprehensive - feedback we were given was not very positive, mainly because of the 'supposedly' steep long hill that led to the studio! It was only a slight gradient! There is no view from the balcony at the back but the view from the front makes up for this! These studios are situated in an excellent location - 2 mins from the square, about 5 mins from the Harbour! They were basic but very clean. We were allowed to use the Sunny Pool facilities next door, which you paid 2Euros a day for your sunbed (they would also give you a free drink!!) The pool area was compact, but had a very friendly atmosphere. We would definately go back and use these Studios again! | ||||||||||

| I stayed in Kassiopi October 2002. My holiday company was Olympia( I THINK ) When the coach dropped me of in the early hours I and my rep had to walk up a steep incline. Half way up we took a short cut through a pool area which was independent from the apartments, but we could make use of for a very reasonable price. it was only a 5 minute walk to the town from there. What I would like to know is. What is the name of the apartments? The Hurcules apartments sound familiar, but I am not sure. Please can you help me?? |

Me and my fincee have just booked a two week holiday at the Hercules Studios. We just need a place to sleep as we will be out most of the day but we have heard some good reviews and some bad.We have booked a 2 bed studio but don't know where on the complex it is. So can someone please help on the front. Also what are the charges for the use of the pool and that? Finally what's the best place to eat out? Price no problem, looking at quality of food. Thank you. |
