Great guy at the desk--helpful, friendly and always available. Beautiful room with handsome antique furniture, wonderful pictures of ships and sea, and amazing details all around. Terrace and view are very special.

Jared United States of America

The property is historic but has everything you need. The staff is very helpful. We were met at the ferry dock so our bags could be transported to the hotel in a cart. (also for our departure). The breakfasts in the garden were delicious and included home baked bread or muffins daily. The manager also contacted the hospital for us so we could have our departure Covid tests completed. Our original ferry back to Athens was canceled so we had to take a much later ferry. We were immediately offered bag storage in addition to access to a room on the property that we could relax in. It had a bathroom and even a shower to use if needed. This was a huge relief and allowed us to spend the additional 6 hours on Hydra without worry!

An old Hydriote house, a simple garden with jasmines, a stone courtyard in shades of red, and...a couple of stairs. These few things bound, beneath the golden sun, with sturdy thread people from all over the world! That is our secret. Miranda
