Hydra Hotel

We fell in love with the island and this charming boutique hotel. The view from the bed in the Junior Suite was insanely beautiful. The staff, especially the hostesses, was very friendly and helpful (extra grateful for the recommendations and care of Dafni). The breakfast was fine! The mattresses are hard, we liked it, but it comes to preference.

It was a fabulous location, albeit with lots of steps but then that’s the nature of hydra! We had the room with the balcony that overlook the harbour which was absolutely beautiful. Breakfasts were lovely as well saved in a lovely terrace.

My review gives all “excellents” but that is perhaps being over generous. The location is ok but entails a hike up many stairs and makes it necessary to use a mule to transport luggage. Also there is no outside area with a view over the town down to the harbor. The staff were friendly but woefully ignorant and unable to answer basic questions most guests might be asking. Breakfast was good and served in a pleasant patio. We would probably return but would be careful about giving it a recommendation to older and less athletic friends.

Quite a great location with a nice view to town, breakfast was simply amazing. And the staff was super nice and very pro active. When due to a rainy day the terrace was unavailable for breakfast they prepared a breakfast tray for us, which was plenty and high variety of selection.

Staff were superb. Really helpful and friendly from the date of booking to departure. Hotel was quaint and idyllic set around half way up the hill out of Hydra Port. Lovely room with self-catering facilities if needed.
