Alkyon

Stayed one week. The hotel is in a good position by the harbour, close to restaurants and shops. A very comfortable hotel, staff all lovely and helpful. Chris always smiling helps with your luggage. Breakfast in lovely breakfast room with roof terrace with great views. Room size good plenty of space for clothing, free safe, kettle and fridge. No tea or coffee provided. Rooms cleaned everyday. Bathroom needs updating was our only criticism, we had a standard room at the rear , with a shower in the bath. Recommend to update to front room if available. Pool small but a lifeguard on duty. We were half board, you eat in the restaurant next door. Lovely restaurant, menu set 2 choices for starter and main. Adequate but not gourmet. Would recommend this hotel its clean, well run, good breakfast and all staff work hard together to keep you happy. We had one small issue and reception dealt with it promptly. Thankyou hotel Alkyon.

From arrival to departure we thoroughly enjoyed our 7 day stay at The Alkyon. The reception staff were courteous and helpful and all the staff treated us with Greek hospitality. Our Spacious room was cleaned daily and a great choice of breakfast with beautiful views from the rooftop restaurant was a perfect start to every day on this beautiful island. We used the excellent bus service nearby to visit lovely beaches and there was an abundance of restaurants and tavernas close by. Congratulations to everyone who gave us amazing food at the Carnyo restaurant - hope you can always preserve that beautiful tree! The pool area is unfortunately small and I think a bonus would be to utilise the garden area with some additional loungers or seating. Just a suggestion. We really hope we can visit the Alkyon again and give thanks and praise to all the staff for a lovely holiday.

A modern hotel in a perfect location in Skiathos town. The hotel and restaurant staff are friendly and welcoming while providing excellent service. The rooms were comfortable with air conditioning TV, fridge and tea making facilities. The breakfast offered a wide selection of quality food.

The Alkyon is a lovely hotel in a perfect location. The transfer from the airport is only 10 mins. The staff were very welcoming and helpful. We booked a side sea view and were given a room on level 2 , unfortunately all we could see was a wall so we asked for a higher room. We were given a room on the 4th floor ( top floor) near the rear of the hotel as this was all they had but it was a better view. The room was very clean and spacious and the beds were super comfy. Unfortunately the bathroom was very dated and not 4 🌟 standard at all. You have to climb into the bath to have a shower and the shower hose is connected to the taps in the middle of the bath and the shower head is at the end so it's a bit awkward. I would be interested to know if there was a refurbishment was planned?I believe the sea view rooms have been refurbished but you pay a lot extra for these rooms. There is a kettle in the room but no tea & coffee so bring your own. The wardrobe is open design but lots of storage and hangers. The breakfast was plentiful and good quality . The dining room has spectacular views over the harbour. Other areas of the hotel were 4🌟 standard. However if you like a good pool area this hotel isn't for you as it is very cramped and very few sunbeds. Although bus stop 0 is only around the corner which takes you to many many beautiful beaches for only 2 or 3 euros. The town of Skiathos is beautiful with 100's of lovely Tavernas. I would stay at the Alkyon again if the bathrooms get refurbished.

1st visit .we loved it all .well looked after hotel. With the best of staff.been skiathos a few times!! Amazing breakfast with view.will b back soon.Thank you all.jet 2 rep always smiling and helpful.fantastic position in town. the staff are special.

Absolutely fabulous hotel, staff are really friendly and very good at making us feel comfortable. The resort is really chilled, not too loud , so teenagers may not be enamoured. But it's very good. There are so many things to see and do, the restaurants are very nice too. There are so many nice places to see.

Had a Fantastic week with friends and already booked for next year. Staff are super friendly and nothing is too much trouble. Big shout out to Elsa, Monica, Anna and all the reception team. Only person who didn’t smile was the restaurant manager. Rooms were super clean and beds comfy. The hotel is close to all the lovely back streets of Greece as well as the port. 20 minute walk to the nearest beach. THE ONE NEGATIVE!!! As mentioned by others the sun bed situation. You can only get one if you are an early riser or set your alarm. Towels left on sunbeds unattended for ages, there are signs stating towels would be removed after 30 minutes but this never happened. You can manage to get a rocking chair next to the pool later, this is what we did. This never put us off and can’t wait to return m, see you next September. x

Very kind staff!! Everything OK!! Location Top+++

Staff were so friendly and helpful. Breakfast was five star great choice and excellent chef and staff.
Slight lack of sunbeds around pool which needed a firmer hand as some people left towels on for hours but had gone else where. When I asked reception staff they did remove towels so we could sit on a sunbed. This was the holiday makers in fault as they were selfish.
Rooms good facilities great air con and very clean rooms. Loved the kettle and fridge.
Great location.
