Hotel Avra by Smile hotels
Wonderful hotel! I will definitely stay here again. It is convenient to the airport and the Rafina ferry port. It was quiet and had blackout currents to get good sleep. Best hotel breakfast buffet I've ever had. Hotel staff was friendly. Shuttle driver was friendly and on time.

The staff as super!!! And the breakfast buffet was excellent, as was the supper buffet. The property is seafront, which is great. But it’s a long way from the airport.
