Overview

The Pontikonisi Hotel offers stunning views and a convenient location near Corfu Airport, with easy access to the sea. Guests appreciate the friendly staff and tasty breakfast buffet. The rooftop bar is also a highlight. However, the hotel's proximity to the airport means significant aircraft noise, and some guests have reported issues with room size, cleanliness, and the condition of the bathroom. There is also no airport shuttle.

The hotel is an old fashioned style Greek hotel. Very cramped bathroom and very hard to shower without making all the floor wet . The view is very good to Mouse Island and beyond but being on the flight path to the Corfu airport it is very noisy as the aircraft are very low on the approach.

The hotel was fine for our purpose and breakfast, as many others have reported, was good. We were there for only one night and had booked knowing it was close to the airport. Aeroplane noise is a major problem throughout the day with planes flying past and over the hotel on a regular basis. Probably best for plane spoters. Not much happening locally. The hotel compares favourably on cost with other local overnighters.

We booked one night because it was near the airport. Should have been longer. The view from our balcony was beautiful. Breakfast was tasty. The access to the sea is good, even though they don't have a beachfront. Those who complain that the planes are loud are right. Everything else makes up for that.

The hotel has a nice view, but it gets into the background almost immediately. The hotel is on the landing route of Corfu International Airport, where it will host over 50 flights per day, at any time of day and night. Airplanes pass so close that almost you can see the pilots in the eyes. The noise generated by these airplanes almost always exceeds 70 Db (measured with the phone) and sometimes reach the 100 Db. Unable to sleep. I spent 1 week falling asleep one night and waking up at 3 o'clock when the plane seemed to land in the room. As for the room, in our case the bathroom was so small that to sit on the toilet you had to put your feet in the shower. The cleanliness leaves to be desired and in the rooms there is a rather dated carpet. Also immediately upon arrival the hotel is greeted by a strong smell of cloaca. Last parking spot. It is said that parking is free, but it is not specified that it is under-sized to the needs of the hotel. Cars are made to park one behind the other, but then you are called at any time to move it. Bad experience.

Ok hotel between road and stone beach. Every room has balcony towards beach and you didnt hear trafic. But you hear aircraft instead. Pool and a roof/snackbar with good food. Nice staff they fix rental cars and this hotel has at least some parking place.

Initially we were put in a small room on the second floor with an impossible shower and what we thought were bedbugs! We were moved into a different room the next day which was much better and more comfortable. our expectations were not high but it was a good base from which to explore. The staff were all very helpful and public transoprt was easily accessible. The pool, although next to the road, was a reasonable size and clean. Getting into the sea over the stones was a bit of a challenge but swimming shoes helped and we would say is an absolute must. The rooftop bar served snacks and a range of drinks but there were several good places to eat within walking distance which were very well priced. The aircraft flying past was not a distraction and seemed to entertain most guests! The rooms were airconditioned which heled. Overall the hotel delivered on what we expected and we would reurn there but not to the second floor!

The hotel is right next to the sea and has its own private beach/bar/restaurant but it is rundown and I think our room may have had mold because we could not stop sneezing. It's okay for a quick night of stay near the airport but I would not plan a vacation around it. If coming from airport, you can take bus 15 to station with bus 6 and take bus 6 all the way to Perama (Aegli station). It's about a 30-45 minute drive for about 4 euros per person.

The receptionist was rude and did not want to assist. The room offered is in the basement and when we asked why, they said we need to explicitly request it. There are no support staff, no cleaners, no kitchen, no bar service, nothing at all. When asked why, they said the staff are on vacations. The hotel is next to the airport and the noise is excruciating, the balcony or the outdoor area cannot be used. The garden and balconies are full of mosquitos as well as inside, and there is no net door to stop them and the property is not taken care of, to eliminate that. There is no breakfast option, no buffet, they do not even sell water, the receptionist points you to the road and says go to the mini market for what you need. The bathroom was full of ants and the pool had no signs of how deep it is, and it turns out it is 1.8m deep at its shallowest point, and the receptionist did not inform us although she saw we have a 7 year old child.
