My husband and I have been going to the Lena Appartments for the last 5 years, we have never had a bad holiday there and the people couldn't be nicer, if you want a good night out the town center is the answer, there are many night spots to visit.
For good food try the Rose Garden next door to the Champion Bar, excellent, friendly, for trips you can book at Vlasseros Travel in the town center, good value for money, also you can change your mon ey there.
MY HUSBAND AND I HAVE STAYED THERE FOR THE PAST 4 YEARS AND WE HAVE FOUND IT VERY NICE IT'S BASIC BUT EVERYTHING YOU WANT, THE CHAMPION BAR IS JUST ON THE DOOR STEP, IT'S RUN BY THEO AND HIS SON AND YOU COULDN'T WISH TO MEET NICER PEOPLE WE HAVE MADE VERY GOOD FRIENDS WITH THEM OVER THE YEARS. AND THE ROSE GARDEN NEXT DOOR OFFERS EXCELLENT FOOD AND SERVICE. WE ARE GOING BACK THERE AGIAN ON 23rd JULY THIS YEAR WITH FRIENDS WE MET LAST YEAR SUE & MARTIN, ALSO GOING AGAIN WITH THEM IN OCTOBER.
VERY FRIENDLY, IF YOUR LOOKING FOR A NICE QUIET WATERHOLE AWAY FROM THE MADDENING CROWD THIS IS THE PLACE FOR YOU.
We have been going to Sidari for the past 5 years and I'm telling you now it is a really nice place. We stay at the Lena Appartments which is situated near the Three Little Pigs just behind The Champion Bar. It is ideal for couples who like a quiet time and it is only 5minutes into the Town so you have the best of both worlds.Please give it a try you won't be disappointed I promise,
to fiona, the nightlife is excellent not been to marinas appartments but from what I know (i've been going to Sidari for 5 years) everywhere is great, there's plenty to do for the over 12's food is great and you get plenty of it.
enjoy your hols, we go on 23rd July
After going to Sidari for 6th year running I wouldn't say it was a bad place to stay on the contrary, it is was of the friendliest places to go, and the food is the nicest I've tasted and it takes a lot to say that as I'm married to a Chef. The Rose Garden next door to the Champion Bar is a nice place to eat, but the restaurants in the town centre are lovely too. We have stayed at the Lena Appartments every year, very basic but at the end of the day it has all you need.
We fly out there again on the 18th July for 2 weeks.
Cancel last comment I meant we fly on the 23rd July
To Valerie Buckley, obviously you must have an attitude problem, my husband and I have been staying at the Lena for the past 5years and go again on the 23rd July for 2 weeks. Theo and his family are very good friends of ours and are the nicest people you could meet. Your holiday is what you make it, you can't blame other people if you've had a bad time.
Just had another two weeks at the Lena App. they now have air-conditioning which is a god send because it was very hot and at 70 euros for the two weeks it was well worth it believe me. The Family Restaurant opposite the Champion Bar is run by Marco and Rita a great couple they made friends of us right away, you couldn't meet a nicer family, and the meals are excelent and cheap. We also went to Belero's Bar in the town centre what a great night you must go there and watch Nick do his dancing in the street, also Sam and Matthew behind the bar are lovely people, watch out for the Sambooka shots he gives you, they are lethal but lovely, don't have too many, I suffered they day after. Meal and drinks in Sidari are plentiful and cheap no matter where you go, try Fagin's for Full English Breakfast beautiful. If you go to Family Restaurant tell them Ken sent you, try the Fillet Steak with peppercorn sauce, it's he best.
Just come back from another two weeks holiday and what can I say Fabulous once again, go back in 8 weeks for another week.
Great people who run this bar, Sam is hillarious also Matthew, it's a must to go there watch Nick doing his dancing on the street, he full of energy and a good laugh. Watch out for those Sambooka shots they are lethal but lovely.
exchange rate brilliant, Euro 151 at moment couldn't be better. Go vlasseros (Phillips) you will the best rate there.
Just got back from 2 weeks holidays at the Lena App. drank almost every night at Champion Bar, we are very friendly with Theo and his family as we have been going there for the past 5 yrs. Going again in 8 weeks, also eat at the 'The Family' facing the bar you won't be disappointed with the food, and the owners are such great people.
Our Rep Suzy is really nice, she was very helpful with whatever we asked her. going back to sidari on 15th Oct. see you soon Suzy hope you are there then.
To Cathrine Murray, why you say the cleanliness of the Lena was under par I don't know, because we have been going for 6years and they have never been dirty, if they have been unclean it's because you must have left it a mess, they don't clean the appartment every day you must keep it tidy yourself. They are not slaves to your every whim, and as for bath towels, the reason they don't have them is because people used to steal them, and as for being cramped, how much room do you need, it's only for sleeping in at the end of the day.
For someone with very high standards and expect good quality, they should book into a Hotel where they can get anything by just asking for Hotel services. Booking into these small Appartments which are cheap and clean you get what you pay for. I am not a person with low standards but you must remember you are in a different country and you should expect to find things different from home. So please don't moan about it.
I was wondering if the Lena apartments behind The Champion Bar are still operating , as they don't seem to be in the Kosmar brochure. The people who own the apartments are great friends of ours, we have been going there for the last 8years. I have lost the address of the owner who also owns the Champion Bar (Theo) |
The Lena you have described is the studio appartments in canal'd'amour, the ones I am asking about is next to the Rose Garden and the Champion Bar they are situated just at the back of Champion Bar. But thanks for answering my message. If there is anyone else who can tell me about this I would really appreciate it. |
Hi Vanessa, I too have lost Magda's details could you please let know what her mobile no. is also her email address, known Magda for few years as Me and my husband have stayed at Lena for the last 9years.

Please send me your email address and mobile No. my email is olive_oil56@yahoo.co.uk my moblie No. is 07725331737. it would be nice to hear from you. also I lost your address. Hope to see you soon.
Could anyone tell me the name of the appartments behind the Champion Bar as my husband and myself used to stay there every year for 9 years and were very friendly with the family that own it, I have not got any communication details of them as I've lost Theo's phone number and we have not been for 5 years. They are no longer in the Kosmar brochure and need the Address to make a booking. I would really appreciate it if anyone could find out these details for me. My email address is olive_oil56@yahoo.co.uk
