Holidaymakers in Greece seek hotel safes to stash cash

Greek resort manager Costas Dimitrokallis’s customers have started asking in recent weeks about an amenity often ignored in an age of online and credit card payments: reliable hotel safes to stash their money.

“Clients want to feel secure that if something happens, they’ll have funds,” Dimitrokallis, who heads the KD Hotels chain with six resorts on the island of Santorini, said in a telephone interview.

“They’re coming with more cash.”
