    Loved everything .

    Everything. Perfect location, exceptionally clean room. Everything I could have needed was there. All the staff very friendly and helpful. My ferry was cancelled the day I was due to leave and they went out of their way to ensure I could stay in the room an extra night.

    Our experience at Upper Hydra was excellent. The host was amazing and took great care of us. The room was spacious and comfortable. The weather was chilly so we spent a lot of time at Isola's Cafe on the main level of the building- also great. I highly recommend Upper Hydra and look forward to going back.

    Noise and fumes from ferry and water taxis were a downside of location and buzz from cafe-bar downstairs, but none of these sufficient to stop a good night's sleep. Luxury fitted bathroom but shower didn't drain well so tended to flood out onto floor. Disappointing breakfast provided for our early departure. Despite this being prearranged with the host, some miscommunication meant we had to chase this up before bedtime and settle for a few things they could throw together whilst serving a busy bar.

    Amazing location on the harbour front with a balcony to take in the view. Convenient for water taxis, ferry and watching out for the rich and famous' yachts cruising in! Amazing breakfast choice in the cafe-bar below, serving very generous portions. Room very spacious with convenience of fridge, kettle and coffee machine. Very comfy bed and sofa to relax. Loved the local donkey themed crockery and soft furnishings. Friendly service of room daily, including refreshing beach towels. Lovely toiletries provided.

    There is no elevator, it might be difficult for someone. But there are no elevators anywhere here so mind that. I personally didn’t have any problems with that.

    First of all it’s so close so you don’t have to climb the never ending stairs to get to it. You literally just get from the ferry, walk 40 seconds and enter the hotel. The room was very clean and comfy, I liked everything about it, the shower, the bed, pillows. Everything. The staff was amazing. The breakfast was in the restaurant downstairs and it was delicious.

    The check in was a bit abrupt. I only arrived 30 minutes early and the man from the cafe asked if I had permission (his first words to me) and then opened the door & shouted up the stairs to the cleaner - she showed me in while she was still finishing the cleaning - I could have waited if not ready. No welcome - or smile, or politeness (didn't say hello or even ask where I was from or if traveling alone etc) - I had travelled for almost 24 hr to get there and was looking forward to staying. He seemed to be there all the time and continued to be abrasive - I didn't want the complimentary breakfast in the end.

    Lovely clean and modern facilities, luxury feel with a great outlook. Surprisingly quiet at night and in the morning. The bed was very comfortable and quality towels and bed covers, cleaned everyday. The cleaning lady was lovely.

    There wasn’t a single thing we disliked about the property

    Everything was absolutely perfect. Aside from the gorgeous view, the place was super clean, central location (only steps from the ferries), and had everything we needed, such as a hair dryer, iron, toiletries, and breakfast included.

    Fantastic place and we will definitely stay again. A very clean place, high quality linen, super comfy Cocomat mattress with topper, Cocomat towels, a very good shower with an abundance of Molton Brown toiletries. It was good to also have a robe and room slippers. Location is perfect, literally opposite the embarkation spot for boats but as we had a back facing room, we didn't notice any noise. I loved the lamp shades and the overall clean/minimal style of the place.

    Cannot think of anything, this is just such a great place to stay.

    Beautiful unit right by the port, we had approx. 10 steps to walk from Metochi ferry to the doorstep! Very nice modernized unit, great sound proofing, very clean and practical. Great housekeeping helping out with Landry and anything we asked for. Great Greek breakfast downstairs!

    The room size was a little challenging with the size of our suitcases, but this was really the only issue we had.

    We loved the location. Right on the water and in the midst of everything going on. Being able to walk right down and eat a great breakfast and just be around people was so much fun.

    The bathroom is separated from the rest of the room with a glass and you don't have the privacy you need when staying when another person. However I traveled alone so no problem with that.

    Great place and great travel experience during this time of the year (off season). I took a sea view room with a small balcony in front. Even lying on the bed (very good mattress) and reading your book you can enjoy the magnificent view. Molton brown products can make you happy when taking your shower. The location is excellent for this time period as most shops are closed and the port is the place where everybody meets. You can enjoy your coffee and breakfast at Isalos cafe (very kind personnel). Also congratulations to Tiky (I hope I write well her name). She is the woman who cleans the room and she is very kind and helpful.

    The toilet wall and door is transparent glass with no way of covering it. Check-in was not explained (the check-in is done in the restaurant downstairs). The staff was not sure which room we were staying in, so we had to hang around until someone arrived to tell them.

    The view was amazing, located right at the port, so we could watch all the port activity from our balcony. The breakfast was delicious and VERY generous! The staff were friendly and very helpful.
