The staff at reception were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our stay.

No full length mirror in the room, patchy WiFi in the room at certain times of the day (neither a deal breaker), the prices have doubled since I booked, so not sure I’ll be able to stay again!

Have had the pleasure to stay here before. Amazing location right on the beach yet away from the hustle & bustle further down Magazia beach, so had a wonderfully quiet & peaceful stay. The reception of the hotel has an air of Skyrian tradition (ask to see the sitting room) and elegance, which you’d never guess from the outside. You’ll be greeted with a warm welcome from the exceptionally friendly helpful and fun reception team. There are 2 floors and no lift but someone will help with luggage if required. Once you walk into your beautiful clean stylishly white room with soft blue curtains and wood carved furniture, all you hear is the sound of the waves, to wake up to and go to sleep. Every room has a balcony which feels secluded. The shower gel smells lovely. You’ll have a stunning sea view in front of you, the bay to your left, mountains to your right. You can even watch the sun rise from your bed!! Buffet breakfast can be eaten on the lawn, with a sea view. The buffet has a great variety of choices from traditional Greek delicacies with daily baked pastries, fresh fruit, cheeses, cold meats, cereal, breads plus cooked hot food etc. There’s a Nespresso machine, various teas and decaf choices. Greek coffee available on request, just ask the very helpful lady who attends this area. Towels available for beach or sun-bed use. Discrete efficient, friendly cleaning staff. This year I was the first and only guest for 2 days at the start of season. I couldn’t have felt more fussed over. What a memorable start to my stay on Skyros. Efharisto para poli to all the staff. There’s a supermarket 5 mins walk away on the main road near the hotel. A taxi costs approx €5 to get to Chora the main village on the mountain or it’s a brisk 20 min walk up to it. But there’s lots of restaurants on the beach, and one 5 mins away, Stafanos which serves excellent fresh fish.

A little bit in the upper side of the price range but definitely within the expected values

Excellent location, professional and very very friendly staff. Good standard breakfast and clean and spacious room. Definitely we will come back!

For breakfast they needed to supply trays to transport the food. In the bathroom they could have used an overhead shower in addition to the hand shower. There was no elevator.

The staff was exceptional. They responded immediately to any request. The room was a good size. There was a balcony overlooking the beach. The light was good.

Nothing that I can think of.

We had a lovely stay at the Hydroussa Skyros. It was still low season when we visited so for most days we were the only guests in the entire hotel. The Hydroussa's location is unbeatable, right on the beach, and within walking distance from the town of Skyros as well as a great variety of restaurants and bars on Magazia and Molos beach. The rooms (I believe all have sea views) were very comfortable and had nice balconies. The staff couldn't have been friendlier and the breakfasts were very generous. Skyros is a very special place with its own distinct culture. We would love to visit again and would certainly stay at the Hydroussa again on a future visit.

Parking could have some tents for the shadow, hope the owner will do it next year as they are constantly investing and improving the facilities of the hotel.

The location is just perfect, visiting Skyros every year we finally found the most conveniently located place, first of all, it's straight on the best beach in Magazia, close to very good taverna Stefanos and also within working distance to Skyros hora through the upward path, so we didn't use the car at all.
