“Beautiful!”

This hotel was so lovely, mainly due to the pretty and artistic decor / rooms and the amazing pool area, also the view from the pool area was amazing, as it is in a high area on a mountain! The staff were so nice and helpful. It is a short bus / car journey to the town area but not in walking distance. Parking was close and convenient. Felt very at ease and relaxed here. Only thing wrong was we didn’t think much of the hotel food, as it was made to sound much better than it was, however we solved this by mostly eating out. Nevertheless, would highly recommend the hotel!

“A very mixed bag”

This is a difficult hotel to review because some things about it are so good and other things are very bad.

This is a difficult hotel to review because some things about it are so good and other things are very bad. Basically it’s in a lovely location with stunning views, has a very good pool, the rooms are clean (although they are a bit over designed with an emphasis on what looks good rather than what works) and the architecture excellent. It’s a bit of a pull up the steep slope from some of the rooms to reception and the restaurant so do make sure, if you have any mobility problems, that you’re booked into rooms near the main hotel. The shuttle bus to Skiathos town isn’t very reliable so car hire is essential. The chief problem seems to be that the hotel is seriously understaffed, leading to very poor service at mealtimes, particularly breakfast. If they can sort this out it will be a really remarkable hotel but at present it’s difficult to recommend. As the food is perhaps the best we’ve eaten on many visits to Greece, it’s a huge shame they can’t serve it efficiently. We saw several guests having temper tantrums as the service dragged on and on and the weary staff were clearly worn down by the volume of complaints.

“Gourmet it Isn't”

This hotel is rated 4* but did not live up to its rating. There are 2 problems with this hotel; the owner and the location. The hotel provides a mini bus (the driver Arris is a darling) but the bus only depart from the hotel 3 times a day at very inconvenient times. The first bus is at 10ish and the last bus is 10ish in the evening. Taxis cost between 12-15 euros, so shop around. The taxi rank on the harbour are the cheapest. The owner has the knack of upsetting the staff on a regular basis and they react by making the guests wait and hour for their food and when it arrives it is cold. Because of her there is a very negative atmosphere in the dining room which makes everyone very uncomfortable. Although we had booked half-board at this hotel because of its location, we frequently ate out and added to that expense was a taxi ride back. The only positive about this location are the views but the rooms are very tired and unloved. Although this is advertised as an adult only hotel, there were 2 babies resident in our week there. There are much better alternatives nearer the town so look around first.
