| said: I noticed that there was no review of this hotel, so I have decided to put in my comments even though it was almost two years ago that we went.
The hotel is set in an isolated position at the end of a road about 1km off the main road. This is not detrimental to the hotel, as it is in a nice setting. There is only one other hotel in this area, so it is nice and quiet. The beach is 200m away, and is in my opinion, the nicest beach on Skiathos. A ferry boat leaves the beach hourly, which takes you to Skiathos Town (cost I think was Euro 2 one way). Much better than the crowed bus from the main road. It is very easy to find your way around the island, as one main road runs the length of the island through all of the main resorts.
The hotel is clean and tidy. However, if you want one with air-conditioning, you have to request it when you get there. There are safety deposit boxes in reception. You have to pay for these and the air-conditioning by the day.
Skiathos is a pretty island, and Skiathis Town is lively at night, with a good mix of bars and restaurants. There are also plenty of tavernas outside of the town, in all of the different resorts.
Breakfast at the hotel is on the top floor, looking out to sea. Breakfast is buffet style, but had a good choice. Can't comment on any other meals at the hotel, as there were too many tavernas to try.
If you book this hotel, you will have a good time. It has many repeat guests. We found the staff friendly and helpful.
