Lucy Hotel

We spent 2 wonderful nights at the Historical Lucy Hotel of Chalkida. I find its location the best, so close to the amazing waterfront and the old bridge of Chalkida. Even though it opened in 1955, the owner paid attention not only to its solid construction back then but also decided to inaugurate a new era for the city and the Hotel was a meeting place for the “high” society of those days. With the last renovation of 2009 Lucy (taken the name from the owner’s daughter) has a new look. It probably remained the same on the outside but you can feel the difference the moment you get inside. Upon entering the mascot of the hotel –an hyena, welcomes every guest and it is safely kept in a glass box. It was carried from Africa from the owner Mr. Plataniotis and it is here since the day the hotel opened. The premises are ideal for business conferences, lunch or dinner gatherings. In the past I came here several times on business meetings, lunch but mostly dinner parties but never before had I the chance to stay at the hotel. To be honest I was a bit concerned when I read some reviews mentioning that they were disturbed from the street noise but I can assure you that there was not such problem. Our room was on the 3rd floor (Room #310) overlooking the waterfront. Reception: Two of the staff at the reception that I had the chance to get to know more than the others was Thanasi and Popi. I found them competent and very helpful. The reception staff can speak the English language fluently as well. Our room was not huge but it was comfortable with a door separating the hall and the bathroom, something that I always appreciate and the sound-proofing I think it was fine. One of the walls was navy blue and the silver frame with some lilies created a nice contrast. On the opposite wall there was a round clock on the wall which proved helpful. There was a large closet with many drawers on the side, a safe box, shoe polish facilities, a mini bar and the TV set included both cable and satellite channels. The toiletries included an Ocean Galet de Savon soap, and Revitalized Shampoo and Shower gel and Body cream. The hairdryer however was the one we usually find stuck on the wall in the bathrooms (not very strong) but in all, the room had all the comforts of a 4* hotel without the frills: I believe the ones who need more than this they can simply look for a 5* hotel but they cannot find a better hotel than this in this city. I found breakfast adequate, and it was amazing how we could enjoy our breakfast overlooking the boats and the awesome view from the huge crystal windows which were double glazed leaving all the noise outside! The lounge is nicely decorated and there is a bar between the lounge and breakfast room. All rooms have balconies, but the best are those overlooking the waterfront. The tide at the Euripus strait changes every 6 hours and it is a rare phenomenon worth watching. On both sides of the hotel there is a multitude of restaurants serving Sea

We stopped in Khalkis or Chalkida in our way from Piraeus to Thessaloniki. Our trip started very early in the morning so around 7am we were in Khalkis. We didn’t have time for breakfast in Piraeus and since this is the most important meal of the day we decided to stop and to have the breakfast here. Unfortunately at 7am there are very limited options for a decent meal, probably in every city, town or village. We noticed Lucy Hotel and an idea sparkling in our minds: what if we can have the breakfast here? So we asked at the front desk and they agree to let us in for the meal. We paid no more than 5 euro/adult, nothing for kid and we solved the problem. The breakfast was very good with everything that usually is to be found in a four stars hotels for such a meal. I dedicate my review for the quality of personnel in this hotel and their understanding for people in need.

Have stayed at Lucy Hotel on the 14th of August for two nights together with my husband and child. We arrived at two o' clock in the morning so we unloaded our baggage and headed straight to the room. You have to have your card so the lift can work. Room was clean and we got the playpen we asked. Sheets were very clean. Bathroom was large. Refrigerator provided. Due to the fact that we got up late both days we did not get the chance to eat breakfast. However, view from the breakfast room is magical. All the employees were very polite. Good job Lucy Hotel team!
