Hotel simpático, situado na zona de Sidari, no norte da ilha. De positivo: As instalações estão bem conservadas,a decoração dos quartos é simpática, camas confortáveis, boa limpeza e funcionários bastante prestáveis e simpaticos. É um hotel pequeno no que toca ao número de hóspedes, o que faz com que haja sempre espreguiçadeiras na zona da piscina disponíveis, e sem grande confusão na hora das refeições. A carta de TI também é completa, com bons cocktails e bebidas de marcas internacionais. De negativo: o restaurante é bastante repetitivo, praticamente só com uma ou as vezes até nenhuma alternativa de peixe (no quarto tinha uma flyer com a descrição que todos os dias o jantar teria um tema: italiano/grego/corfu/africano, etc. Mas a verdade é que nunca vi um único prato temático. O cortinado dos quartos não faz blackout, o que faz com que as 6.30 da manhã esteja literalmente dia dentro do quarto. A animação, tanto diurna e noturna são bastante simples e desinteressantes. Exceptuando uma noite de concerto rock que até gostei, as restantes não consegui assistir mais do que 15 minutos... somando tudo isto, não sendo um hotel brilhante, está bem acima da média!

Unbelievable location and setting, on the west side of Sidari adjoining the steps to the Canal d’Amour, and stunning views across the coast, Albanian mountains and brilliant sunsets. Around a 5 min walk to the local shops, restaurant and bars and then another 5-10 mins to the main strip which is great for all ages including a great night out, entertainment in all the bars and karaoke etc. Madisons is a good shout. On arrival at the hotel we were greeted by very friendly reception staff who spoke really good English and explained everything about our room, facilities, dinner service, bar, and brought us bottles of chilled water for the fridge. The main entrance and reception is down near the busier road with a few mins walk to the main pool area and dining. Our room was a family maisonette which is over 2 floors with a couple of sofa beds on the lower floor and double bedroom on the upper, with a shared shower room and toilet. Our room was attended to every day with fresh towels and beds made. The rooms are clean, and quite modern and have a tv in each area, decent sized fridge and plenty of socket outlets. The air conditioning was bliss and worked the whole of our stay. We had no trouble sleeping. We had a nice sea view from our balcony. Some of the rooms have shared up pools which looked great. The maisonettes tend to be on top of the swim up rooms. The hotel is very relaxed and friendly, and all the staff are always wanting to help and make you feel welcome which we loved. The manager asked us on several occasions if everything was ok and was always checking in with the guests, a very cheerful character. There is a main pool which is a good size and depth and has a small baby pool, there was a good mix of small/large families and couples with plenty of sunbeds and all close to the pool bar which is open from 10am-11pm. Food was great, nice wide range of choice every day for breakfast lunch and dinner in the main dining area, and plenty of salad, drinks, fruit, etc. ice cream is 24-7 help yourself at the pool bar area. There was a Greek themed night while we were there. There is a spa which isn’t included but the prices looked reasonable. The gym is useable and workable only just, but is very small and needs new equipment. The vibe is peaceful and friendly, this isn’t a full on hotel with activities, the guest are left to relax and take in the beautiful surroundings. Each night there is some form of entertaining at the outdoor bar area, either DJ just playing music or a local band who were authentic and great. We had drinks there and then ventured into Sidari on a few occasions as our boys are 15 and 21, but the place was still full and drinks flowing at 11-12pm. A highlight of our stay was taking in the sunset with a drink or two overlooking stunning scenery. The Canal d’Armour is great with clear sea and you can swim out to caves etc, lots of places to jump in off the smooth rocks. It can get busy with tourists every day and lots of visitors in the evening for the sunset, some of them do use the hotel bar for a quick bite and drink, but are told by hotel staff to stay in designated areas to sit and there was no issue with this. The costal path actually runs through the edge of the hotel grounds past the canal and is a lovely walk either side with stunning views and beaches. There is a bus stop near the three little Pigs restaurant that takes you to Corfu town for around 8 euros return and takes around 45-50 mins, we spent a day there which is beautiful. The old fortress is worth a visit. Overall we loved our time at Akron and Corfu in general and would recommend it to anyone, if you’re wanting full large hotel facilities and kids clubs etc this place isn’t really offering that kind of holiday, but for just pure relaxation, safety, nice people and great surroundings it was definitely value for money in our opinion and we would definitely stay here again in the future.

Just spent 10 nights here with wife and four kids from 17 to 9. Rooms are clean and air con is great. Decent pool. Deck chairs could all do with being fixed up/ tightened. Food was a little repetitive. Evening entertainment wasn’t the best. Good location for walking into Sidari. Gym not great. Only 3 weights of dumbbells and the treadmills don’t work. Some apartments have their own direct pool which might suit couples.
