Loved the location, friendly staff and cooked to order breakfast. The stairs are a bit much to navigate, but so worth it for the upstairs common area and room looking out to the sea.

The hotel is within walking distance from the ferry docking place. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast that is included is very good and offered variety of choices. There are restaurants just outside the hotel. the room was clean and comfortable.

Wonderful location and facilities. Small hotel rehabbed from some other use so there are some idiosyncratic design features, such as stairs that others commented on. Hosts are very accommodating and helpful. Amazing breakfast is the clincher. Would return eagerly.

Absolutely recommend
Lovely old hotel with a great location and very nice staff. The view from our room was perfect but be aware that there are several steep steps to get to the rooms so be mindful if you have a traveler with some difficulties.
Breakfast was fresh and cooked perfectly and the entire staff was so helpful and very positive. I would absolutely stay there again.

Just stay here!
Love this hotel! Outstanding position, a little noisy but you are above the cafes and right across from the harbour. 400 m walk to the swimming areas. Good shopping nearby. Great breakfast excellent service by Panos.

Convenient location on the harbor within a short walk of the ferry landing and virtually everything else in town. The staff was friendly and helpful. The room was spacious and comfortable, bathroom/shower tight, not surprising for a turn of the century hotel. Should mention the hotel lacks an elevator so not suitable for those unable to walk two flights of stairs.

Wonderful hotel, I would stay here again. Beautiful views. A little distance from main harbour but the hotel and staff made up for that. Food was excellent. Staff couldn’t do enough. We wanted to stay longer but fully booked. We loved it

Het personeel was uiterst vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Het ontbijt was ook prima. De ligging is perfect.
Een minpunt vonden we het harde matras maar dat is ook een persoonlijke voorkeur.

The building was pretty and the room was small but had everything I needed plus a beautiful view. The staff were very friendly. The only thing was that the shower head had to be held. There was no insert for it.

Good stay
The location is great, breakfast is very good, staff friendly and amenable.
Room was okay but shower very small and floor constantly got totally wet.
Parking is serious problem.
Prepare to walk up steep steps with your luggage to the rooms.

Loved the central location. A few minute walk from the ferry port. Super close to a plethora of bars and restaurants! The staff was lovely and very hospitable. The room was a bit small for us to open our suitcases but we were only staying 2 nights so it was manageable. I wish there was a shower head attached to the wall. It was hard for me to wash my hair holding the shower head.

Lovely hotel with amazing breakfast and staff
Really nice hotel on the front with different rooms ours was a traditional curved roof double that had a nice wet room shower. The bed is a little hard and would benefit from a thick mattress topper but the hotel staff and breakfast quality makes this hotel a fabulous place to stay would definitely stay there again. It’s also v close to the shops and local tavernas so superb location. Would give it 9.5 out of 10 which would have been 10/10 if the bed was a little softer.

We have stayed at The Aktaion before. It’s a lovely hotel on the Port in Syros. The staff is helpful and friendly. The breakfast is generous, and very good. The only drawback to this place is the stairway to the rooms. They are steep and circular.

The hotel location is superb and so is the building. Service was excellent though I would have liked a menu for the breakfast. Breakfast was wonderful but it took a couple of days to discover all that was on offer.
