About the Island Hotel
Philoxenia Apartments - A quiet aparthotel above Karpathos Town center with garden views, free WiFi, and bicycle rentals
Philoxenia Apartments is a 3-star aparthotel in Karpathos Town, located just above the heart of the town center, 400 metres from Pigadia Port and an 18-minute walk from Afoti Beach. The property offers individually decorated, non-smoking accommodations with air-conditioning, private bathrooms, balconies, and fully equipped kitchenettes, along with garden views and patios. Each unit includes a dining area, complimentary bottled water, and a safety deposit box, with allergy-free rooms available upon request. The hotel provides express check-in/check-out, private check-in/check-out, free WiFi throughout, and invoice provision, alongside a sun terrace, garden, and outdoor furniture. Guests can engage in on-site billiards, a tennis court, hiking, cycling, and snorkelling, with bicycle and car hire available for local exploration. The property also offers street parking, a designated smoking area, and security features including CCTV, smoke alarms, and key access. Its location is within walking distance of the Folklore Museum Karpathos, the main shopping street, and numerous harbour-front restaurants, while Karpathos Airport is 14 km away. Guests noted the quiet yet central setting, daily cleaning, and the helpful host, Kyria Sophia, who provided valuable island advice. Philoxenia Apartments also serves as a base for exploring the island's beaches and cultural sites, with public transport available but infrequent. The property is smoke-free throughout, and guests can enjoy the relaxed atmosphere near a fish pond and plants in the sitting area below the main building.
