Location is a little far and uphill for going on foot and there is no interesting view.

It was an ok room with friendly stuff and clean bathroom-sheets etc.

Stayed in July 2025

The only downside is that the road to the hotel is uphill, so it can be a bit tiring.

The rooms are spacious and clean. The staff are really kind and friendly, they helped us with everything.

It was clean and had everything we needed. In a fantastic location - beds were comfortable, air con worked well and shower was lovely and hot! It was incredibly reasonable and staff were really friendly. We didn’t have our terrace but there was a lovely shared area where we could sit and have a drink. Would stay there again without a doubt.

The directions to get to the property are unclear and it’s quite difficult to find. The shower pressure was poor and there was nowhere to put the shower head so you need to hold it the entire time.

Good location and room

Too many steps to get to it. 200 steps up hill!!

The staff were very helpful, particularly Johnny!

Though the room had a fridge, there is a fantastic outside area where we would have liked the provision of some plates and cutlery to of sat there with slices of fruit etc.

Hydra is truly magical and Theano Guesthouse gave my daughter and I the opportunity to enjoy the island. The room was basic, but it all worked with very helpful staff. Fantastic shower, great location. We were so happy to of stayed there.

Great value place to stay in Hydra

The stairs to get there

The garden

Stayed in July 2025

I did get lost trying to find it the first time. The internet on Hydra was non existent once I left the harbor and the signs for the hotel are small, so you have to pay close attention to the 3 signs that are high above eye sight. Otherwise it was great. Don’t bring large pieces of luggage, it is a hike up a lot of stairs to get there.

The hotel is cute and comfortable, the building is traditional and has many old fixtures that made it feel authentic to the town. The staff is friendly and helpful.

Noisy as hard floors and people walking around in middle of night . Fridge noisy . Beds uncomfortable. No communication re check in and location despite messaging . Difficult to find .

Clean . Good air conditioning

Nothing. We had a very pleasant stay.

Friendly and helpful staff, perfect location, very clean, quiet and wonderful courtyard.

Stayed in July 2025

No balcony, only window Check out is very early- at 10.00

It is good for one night stay it is clean and the location although it has some stairs to reach there, is quiet and it's close to kamini area which is calmer than the island center

Stayed in June 2025

The commute there, as you’ve read is high up, but it is nothing a healthy adult cannot do! Islanders of all ages live high up on Hydra, and do it every day.

The rooms are well equipped. My sister and I stayed in a room with twin beds with comfortable mattresses. We had clean towels, a mini fridge, shampoo and soap. There was a working air conditioning in the room which we didn’t and up using, as there was a cool breeze from the balcony. The room was clean and had a nice view from the balcony.

Very helpful. We could not find it ( Google maps is not helpful) on first night and they helped us with alternative. Strongly advise guests to avail of donkey transport for bags to reach this guesthouse.

Stayed in June 2025

It’s a lot of stairs ( 240). Map always doesn’t work.

Calmness & coolness.

Stayed in June 2025

You need to sleep with air conditioning (because you need to close the windows) if you don't want to be bitten by mosquitoes! Early checkout. contrary to what was written on the page, there is no breakfast included, and no furnished kitchen, so you can't prepare your own breakfast either. Not even a kettle!

Calm guesthouse on top of the hill. Bed was ok. Room was calm. More affordable than other hotels on the island at the time of booking. Large fridge in the room (though a bit noisy)

- People with heavy luggage may have trouble carrying it uphill. - The beds were uncomfortable and squeaky; consider bringing earplugs if you have a large group ;)

- I guess all places on Hydra are beautiful; this guesthouse is a bit further up the hill, which provides a bit more silence and peace - The staff is very helpful and friendly - We had the room with a window overlooking the lemon tree. I could not imagine a better morning than opening the window and looking at the view!

The hot water system is inadequate, as two nights I couldn’t get any hot water and another night just warm water. After the first night, I was changed from a room with a nice view to one with wall views and curtains that didn’t block out the light sufficiently. The kitchenette is very narrow and also a passage way for staff and other guests, with cigarette smoking smell there on one occasion. The latch on one of my shutters was unable to securely close the shutter. The hand held shower had no wall hook to allow you to shower hands free.

It is a charming old stone building with light airy rooms and pleasant courtyard dining, also a nice view out to the mountain at the back. It is very close to Leonard Cohen’s house and the 4 Corners store, with Kamini restaurants/harbour not too far away. It was a reasonable price, compared to those close to the harbour. The staff were very pleasant and helpful too. I got plenty of exercise climbing up the 246 steps from the harbour, so it was good for weight loss. ;-)

There were some minor maintenance issues, handles on drawers missing,funny smells from the drains in the bathroom. But for the price it was OK.

Very good staff and very nice too. Highly recommended guesthouse for people on a budget . Very quiet and peaceful and very clean .

Due to the upper location, there is not much choice of dinning if you do not walk down to the harbor. Google map has the correct location, but if you follow booking.com's GPS location which is linked to Google map directly, the location is 100 meters off. So, just search Theano Guesthouse directly in Google map. Don't link it to booking.com

Room is clean, and staff is very kind. The location is half way on the slope rather than at the harbor, but I consider that plus rather than minus because it is not too steep a climb----if your luggage is not too heavy. And walking in those small alleys is fun.
