Atypical calm place with nice vibe. Old solid building with marble and heavy wood. Rooms are actually apartments, with kitchen and three bedrooms. Very spacious and with lot of lights. Location is (almost) on the sea side (no any streets between).
We had nice sleep there. It will be good if they are offering breakfast. 
Beautiful beach is 50m away.
Obligatory book third (last) floor sea view room. You will enjoy.

TO BE RECOMENDED

Perfect place 10 metres from the beautiful sandy beach called Pahia Ammos 
Perfect spacious apartment with fresh air all day 
Very clean,  a huge double bed with very good mattress and pillows 

No noice , yet close to bars restaurants and supermarkets 
Good value for money 
And best of all very friendly anda caring reception and management. Will certainly return to this place and hotel

Really enjoyed vacations and stay to Elman hotel

Amazing location ON the beach! Incredible service-minded people working there. Really spacious rooms with high ceilings and balconys all around. This is a hidden gem that the whole family really loved!

Beautiful colonial style hotel at the beach

I spend each year two weeks in vacation since 2016 with my wife and we love this hotel. Great and peaceful position on a beautiful sandy beach where you can go also barefoot.
The garden and the building keep the flavor of “grand hotel” of sixties with very wide spaces and beautiful furniture in the rooms with any comfort.
Since last year Lefteris and his beautiful mother made great improvements indoor and outdoor.
We will be happy to come again for many years.

The best place to stay in Paleochora

Perfect location directly at the beach and next to Jetee beach club. It's family owned. You don't have the service like a city 4-5 Star of an international Hotel group but you get a super friendly attention that comes from the heart of an authentic Greek family. The rooms are super spacious and ideal for families with kids. We had an 80 square meters, 3 room apartment with Seaview for 90,-/night. The style of the hotel and rooms is a bit old fashioned, like 70s, 80s but they are very clean and well equipped.
I give it  a 5 Star, because it was perfect for us but i can imagine that people who need 5 Star luxury with an international service team and a modern design prefer a different kind of hotel.

Fantastic location, great value for money, spacy and family friendly

Centrally located hotel with easy access to the beach. Close to the restaurants and supermarkets. Staff is extremely friendly and made our stay very pleasant. Exceeded by far our expectations. Very clean and spacious rooms. Mrs Dimitra and Mr Christos are the nicest and most kind people, they are 24hr there in case you need anything. Totally recommend for your stay in Paleochora. Will definitely come back and stay at the hotel again.

Leisure trip with group

The new owners of the hotel who took possession only in July 2021 (an inheritance) were  so welcoming and filled with the wonderful Greek warmth. Yes the hotel is dated (again they have just inherited it) but it has such charm and was absolutely spotless, a credit to the staff. As the first hotel in Paleochora and there since the late 70's it is iconic and I look forward to returning to see the changes although I do hope that the style is maintained, it really has such enormous potential. The rooms are huge, 2 bed apartments with marble floors and ours had a wrap around balcony. It's also on the beach, you step out the back door and there is the ocean, its location cannot be beaten. Look past what it is, focus on all the positives (staff, location, cleanliness and its history) and you will have a wonderful time. Thank you Lefteris, a lovely young man and his mum who have a huge restoration job ahead of them. I wish you all the luck from Ireland and cannot wait to return. Jennifer and David 

A wonderful stay in the Old Dame of Paleochora 

As noted in another recent review, this hotel is tired. It’s furnishings are quite dated and the grounds are in serious disrepair (see photos). The rooms (really suites) are large but impractical given the state of the furnishings and equipment. Further, it was over-priced for the quality so not good value for the money. It was clean.

Tired

We were looking for a place to stay overnight after exhausting trip in Samaria Gorge and found this pleasant hotel after a short walk. It was May and not high season of course. We came from Hersonissos, which was overloaded with tourists, mostly from Russia and a quiet, relaxing hotel like Elman was exactly what we wanted.
   Staff was extremely welcoming and helpful. Girl from reception wanted to carry our luggage and i had couple of times to explain, that i will not let a lady to carry my bags.
  We got nice apartement with a sea view.
Breakfast was delicious, with greek coffee. Special thanks to the old lady, chief of the dining room.

Relaxing oldschool luxury

The Elman, we were told, is the oldest hotel in Paleochora and the 1970s decor and facilities reflect this. Its location is excellent, virtually on the beach, and the rooms are very spacious. The room fittings and fixtures however are aged and the place needs refurbishment. The flat screen TV turned out to be an ancient 14 inch version with two grainy channels. 

Breakfast was just about adequate with a limited choice of items. The staff were rather odd and at times there seemed to be some friction between them with periods of shouting and crashing of trays!

It's a five minutes walk to the nearest good supermarket and a further 5 to the centre. Note that they only take CASH. Something we hadn't noticed until we got there. OK for one night but probably not longer (we stayed 4 nights).
