Hotels near Syros Island National Airport - JSY, Ermoupoli

Loved everything about this hotel!stayed here for 4 nights. Firstly I was treated to a free upgrade to a sea view which was a lovely surprise! the hotel is directly across from Vari beach and so the view is spectacular, waking up to the beautiful turquoise colours of the sea was very refreshing! The location is superb, not only direct access to the beach but restaurants, cafes across the road and the bus stop is a 2 mins walk to take you into main town Ermoupolis.There is also an ATM conveniently downstairs from the hotel. The breakfast was great value with a variety of continental breakfast options with tastes of Greek cheese pies and local honey. The breakfast is located at the hotel’s restaurant opposite the hotel where you are literally on the water looking out at the stunning sea and lovely collection of fi shing boats. The room was very spacious and I appreciated the level of thought and simplicity of the furnishings for example the crotchet hanging bags in the bathroom so you can pop your toiletries in. -( brilliant idea I’m saving for my own bathroom)You can tell the owners have an eye for detail. The room was super clean with clean towels and sheets every day. But the real difference for me was the staff! Alexandros was outstanding! I would hear him greet every guest by their first name with such a calm and genuine nature, nothing was ever too much trouble for him! I should know- my phone suddenly one afternoon stopped charging and I couldn’t figure out why and so I ran downstairs hoping someone could help. Alexandros not only found that it was due my European adapter not working anymore he actually let me borrow his iPhone charger for the rest of my stay! Many many thanks Alexi! I would definitely recommend this hotel for your stay in Syros you will not be disappointed!

Ano Syros is the typical place one would expect from Greece. Classical houses, beautiful flowers, small narrow streets, churches, donkeys and wind mills. It is picturesque and quiet, with hardly any tourists to be found (this was early November). The climate was just perfect with 23 degrees.

This is a beautiful port city. Easy walkability around the port and the central square. Many fine shops and restaurants. Ferries and yachts coming and going. Overlooking the port are two fine churches on hill tops. Easy access with the local bus. Not crowded with too many tourists. Several fine beaches around the island. Taxi cost 12e to go across the island.

Beautiful, compact village, with a choice of beaches - fairly peaceful & too overrun with tourists. Some wonderful restaurants and cafes, plus a local fresh fish market, although I didn't get the chance to see it open. Warm, welcoming people with a nice balance of friendly locals and holiday makers from all walks of life. Peaceful haven, only 20 minutes bus from the city of Ermoupolis.

Great little beach town. Not too big, not too small, several small areas to find a bite to eat or a cold beer. Bus service was simple and convenient. Take to downtown was also very reasonable at just 11 EUR.

It was the first time for me when actually leaving into an old medieval neighborhood - out there someone is transposed into an ancient time! The picturesqueness of the places all around and the old atmosphere of the place worth all the money in the world. And the local people are so friendly and welcoming! Few streets down from our accommodation there is the 'downtown' of the neighborhood, with cozy small boutiques and restaurants / cafeterias, a very animated and colorful area, especially on evenings. It is quite easy to get around Ano Syros, but definitely one needs a good physical condition for that, as there are steps and slopes everywhere. Beyond each corner someone can find a cute alley or an amazing view of the port, an old house, a stylish garden, a church or a chapel. But going uphill to Ano Syros from Ermoupoli (the new city) requires quite an effort, either by car or walking. The parking areas are not close to the hill top where Ano Syros is located and they are pretty crowded, especially during afternoons and evenings. From the parking area one has to walk uphill for a while to get to any place within Ano Syros, which is not easy for those who are not used with this kind of exercise.
