Lovely family owned hotel in a great location, set back a little from the seafront in a quiet area with good sea views and a good sized balcony that got the late afternoon/ evening sun. Nice breakfast which you can have outside on the terrace. Lovely staff and a friendly hotel dog, (but don't be put off if you don't like dogs, she only comes to see you if you ask her to!). Rooms were extremely clean. Pool wasn't yet open, but that was to be expected so early in the season (late April). Very good value.

All good… they were always very helpful.

The family running the hotel were so lovely. They got me extra bits from the supermarket as I am gluten free. Really nice to have the saltwater pool swim everyday. Wonderful views across the town to the sea.

Rooms are compact and typically greek, but clean and comfortable, ours had a great view over Mandraki to the sea.. The hotel is in an ideal location, with the advantage of having it's own swimming pool. Breakfast is mainly cold buffet, it was great to sit on the terrace with a coffee in the morning and watch the village go about it's daily routine. There are a number of restaurants and small supermarkets within a few minutes stroll. The staff at the Porfyris were great and a special thank you to Takis for all his help. The hotel does have some parking immediately outside, but be aware that streets in Mandraki are very narrow, if you plan to hire a car. We both agreed that the Porfyris and Nisyros were the most enjoyable/Greek parts of our island hopping trip.

Bathrooms a bit on the small side, particularly showers, but no big deal really.

Staff, location, cleanliness, layout.

Shower rather small. Room a bit cramped.

Staff were extremely helpful. Good continental breakfast. Pleasant swimming pool. Good location, just 3 mins walk from square with restaurants. 5 mins from more at water front. Lovely hotel dog, so chilled and laid back.

The hotel is a bit old fashioned but that adds to its charm. Our room was clean and smell fresh and air conditioner worked well. Shutters helps to make the room completely dark for a night. The swimming pool with saltwater was well maintained.

Few more pool lounges with movable back rests.

Very happy with our room and service from the staff. Lovely view from balcony to Monastery and the sea. Magnificent sunsets. Small fridge in our room functioned well, made ice and was great for keeping drinks cold. Air-conditioning cooled our room effectively. Layout of room gave us space for luggage. Local honey and homemade jams available at breakfast. Standout feature is the pool area. It's a 1970s time capsule. Lazing there I felt like Jacqui Onassis visiting dear friends. Suggest visiting Michele from Enetikon Travel at the port to book day excursions. Archeological Museum worth a visit, informative well displayed exhibits. Had several tasty meals at Taverna Issikas near the windmill. Alexandros Cafeteria serves delicious fresh local fish. Wonderful sunsets from both locations.

Met at the port and taken to the hotel even though it is not far. Quickly checked in and room was a good size with view of Mandraki and the sea as requested. Staff were all very friendly with a good choice from the continental breakfast. Swimming pool was welcome as the beaches are generally poor, while we were there sand was being spread to make a small beach lido in the town. Hotel was very clean and comfortable and would stay again if we return to Nisyros.

Nothing really. The pool area was great but some of the loungers could be upgraded and tiles requiring repaired. Lovely area to enjoy a cool Swim at the end of the day.

The hotel is situated in the centre of Mandrakion. Easily accessible to all local shops/ restaurants. Breakfast was simple but plenty bread, cheese, cold meats etc with Greek yogurt and fruits. Bedrooms were a good size and beds very comfortable.

If being picky, our shower was good but not brilliant and some might miss the lack of a lift with heavy luggage - although help was always offered.

Great location, lovely friendly hotel and staff, beautiful terrace and swimming pool, good range of breakfast food - great holiday location all round

1% of the population need gluten free. I contacted the hotel 2 weeks in advance to ask for gluten free breakfast option. I asked again on arrival but was told this was not possible to purchase on the island. We discovered the bio shop in the town has excellent gluten free bread. I would not have minded paying the hotel extra for gluten free but to say it is not available on the island is simply incorrect.

Lovely being met at the port. Comfortable beds. Great location.
