Opinions SELANA SUITES Chrysopigi

We recently stayed at Selana Suites. My husband had picked the place for a part of our honeymoon and wow- he picked so well!!! ????
The place is stunning, with a gorgeous view on Chrisopigi monastery and the ocean, a cold pool lined with wooden beach chairs and the friendliest staff!
We stayed here for about 4 days right after our wedding and we were able to really rest after the big day. The breakfast was delicious every morning (with freshly pressed orange juice) and after zooming around many parts of the island on our scooter, we decided it was the prettiest location on Sifnos. The hotel staff kindly helped us arrange taxis to and from our ferry and pointed us to restaurants nearby and towns to explore. Our room was modern, exceptionally clean and with a great view.
We highly HIGHLY recommend staying here, thanks again to everyone at Selana Suites who made our stay so memorable and pleasant! ????

On top of having an absolute amazing location and view, what makes this hotel experience a great one is the staff. They were all so accommodating and kind, happy to help with anything.
We stayed here with our family and everyone was so happy!
We would love to be back! and would recommend to all our friends.
Thank you Irene and your family for being so nice and making our time in Sifnos perfect.

Air Conditioning in room 9 needs fixing though- it was OK but didn't work fully.

Amazing experience!

Our trip to Sifnos was amazing, and our absolutely wonderful stay at Selana suites was a significant part of why we had such a wonderful time. The staff was courteous, accommodating and friendly. The location was nothing short of beautiful. Breakfast every morning with a stunning view of the Aegean sea. Our only regret is that we could not stay longer. If you are visiting Sifnos you could not ask for a better place to stay.

Une vue à couper le souffle , dans un écrin d’oliviers et de figuiers , chambre spacieuse , un accueil très personnalisé. Merci à Irène qui nous a beaucoup aidé à organiser notre séjour (réservation et choix des restaurants sur l’île , location de voiture ). Nous reviendrons !

We loved staying at Selana Suites in Sifnos ! The hotel is very private and the staff is very attentive. The swimming pool overlooking the monastery is definitely the highlight! Breakfast is excellent. The bedrooms are comfortable. Look no further ! We definitely recommend staying here and would return in a heartbeat !

Breathtaking views and great amenities. Located in a very quiet, isolated spot.

Within walking distance of pebble, sand and rock beaches, taverns, bus stop and 20-30 min away from nearby towns with more restaurant options and shops.

Firstly I will say that this hotel has incredible views and a nice pool. You can spend hours admiring the view. It’s pretty quiet so has a relaxing and tranquil feel. The property and rooms were clean throughout. Staff were fine and the breakfast was satisfactory. Having said that, we were quite disappointed with our stay.

As context, we booked and prepaid many months in advance at a rate of €270 per night in mid September. The reviews of the property are very strong and it bills itself as 4 stars. We travel to different islands in Greece every year and generally stay in 4-5 star hotels. While the views here certainly are 5 star, everything else is 3 star at most. At this price point I expect high standards. What we got was a basic room which had the feel of a budget chain hotel and lacked privacy. While the room size and air conditioning were fine, that’s where the positives end. Critically, the bed was the most uncomfortable bed I’ve slept on in years - rock hard with springs sticking into your back. We woke up sore every day and consequently felt tired the entire stay. Walls were thin so you also hear your neighbours talking.

Apart from the pool, the hotel has no facilities. You absolutely need a car to stay as there are no good restaurants within walking distance, and no shops or other amenities.

At any hotel (even a budget one) in Greece you’re generally treated to a bottle of water on arrival. That wasn’t the case at Selana. There are no shops around within walking distance so if you’re thirsty be prepared to buy water from them immediately. I don’t really care about the price so much as the message it sends - pay a high price for your room, but they can’t even gift you 1 bottle of water that costs them almost nothing. Even weirder considering how hospitable Greek hotels generally are, this just feel stingy.

Do you want Wi-Fi? You can almost forget about it. This is the worst hotel Wi-Fi I’ve had in over a decade and reminds me of the dial up speeds of 1997 internet. Attempting to watch a 10 second Instagram story takes several minutes with buffering, and loading Google maps the same. We asked whether something was wrong with the internet and were told it was just like that on the island. Funnily enough we tried the Wi-Fi at a restaurant at the beach 1km away and speeds were what you’d get in any large city in the world, so clearly the island does have normal internet service (as do 4 nearby island we also visited). Thank goodness I didn’t have to attend to any work commitments during my stay - I’d be in serious trouble if I was asked to attend a zoom call as there’s no way this would be possible. This is unacceptable in this day and age.

In summary - not a terrible hotel, and the views are magnificent. We just felt the price/quality ratio was very poor and it really made out entire stay in Sifnos rather disappointing.

Everything was perfect. I recommend this hotel . The location , the service ,the cleaning was great. Also the breakfast was very nice. The staff was very friendly and helpful !!! Thank you for everything

Très bel endroit au calme.
Les chambres sont bien aménagées (climatisation, moustiquaires, frigo, douches italiennes, etc…) et confortables.
Piscine magnifique avec vue sur un petit monastère encore en activité d’où vous berceront de temps en temps les chants des prêtres orthodoxes.
Les petits déjeuners sont très copieux et de très bonne qualité.
Personnel discret mais agréable et attentionné.
Un petit coin de paradis.
En revanche, pour les dîners, mieux vaut privilégier les restaurants un peu plus bas sur la plage ou à Apollonia qui proposeront plus de choix pour moins cher.
