Erytha Hotel & Resort

19 Sep 2008

Erytha Hotel in Karfas, Chios, Greece Dates:5-9 August 2008 Grigoris Mouzakitis [-] "Nice Hotel, pity about the location" We stayed at Erytha for five nights from the 5th to the 9th of August 2008. Karfas, the greater area in which the hotel is situated, is a short drive (about 5km) from the capital which boasts the main port and the... more

Hotel Kyma

4 of 5 stars
Athens, Greece
14 Sep 2008

Hotel Kyma is a short walk from where our boat docked in the lovely port area. The staff is kind and very helpful. The hotel shows signs of the renovation from an old mansion to the current hotel. The beds were very comfortable, but it doesn't have all the most modern amenities. For example, the shower doesn't have a curtain.... more

This is a good choice overall, a traditional mansion with its cistern, well and orange grove. We stayed at the smallest - and cheapest at 75EUR - room which had a separate bathroom in the corridor but that was not so much of a problem. We found the furniture though in need of an upgrade with something newer and more... more

Emporios Bay Hotel

21 Aug 2008

Cute spot to stay on Chios. Well out of the main Greek tourist stampede. We drove all around Chios in a few days enjoying the (rocky) beaches and medieval villages - Mesta and Pyrgi are fabulous spots to visit. Emporios Bay is near them all and very peaceful. There a couple cute local restaurants within a few steps. The hotel... more

Emporios Bay Hotel

21 Aug 2008

One of the main reasons to pick this particular hotel if you are visiting Chios is the actual place that is situated, that is Emporios Bay, most probably one of the most beautiful places around Chios! I am in favor of the southern part of Chios and especially the area of Mastiho choria. Despite the fact that is the only... more

Amalia Rooms

Philadelphia, PA
10 Aug 2008

We really enjoyed our stay at Amalia Rooms. Our balcony had an amazing view of the harbor, and the room had everything we needed (including a little fridge). It was extremely convenient for sightseeing and right in the middle of everything happening in Chios Town. However, the same holds true at night: we heard the bars thumping until at least... more

We stayed in the 2 bedroom apartment. The balcny is right accross the church, no more than 5 meters which is the width of the road. The entire town is explored by foot very easily. The apartment is about 700 yrs old. Iy has 2 bedrooms and 2 baths (the bathrooms are very small and the shower is combined with... more

My favorite taverna in Chios. Periklis is a real artist and his dishes are delicious creative variations of Greek classics. Try his Barpecue suckling pig, "trypito Kontosoyvli", mastello in pitta bread and baked aubergines with cheese. I heard he does delicious pizza and pasta too but i never bothered to try it. I love the other dishes so much so... more

Menu has a creative touch but it is not that great. One of the best views from a restaurant in Chios. Gets really crowded during summer weekends. more

Magical Mesta - we stayed at Anna Floradis rooms - she was wonderfully gracious. The people are fantastic, the medieval town was like no other place. We fell in love with Mesta. more

Chios Chandris Hotel

10 Jul 2008

I visited Chios island on a business trip. The hotel is nothing fancy, average facilities, however it is clean and tidy. Nice view from the rooms facing the sea. Did not try the restaurant, because there are several nice taverns and restaurants close by. Breakfast, the usual american buffet, but nothing great. The only great about the breakfast is the... more

My partner and I travelled to Chios from Cesme by ferry which takes approx 45 minutes. As we approached the harbour we could feel our stress levels disappear. The views en route to Volissos are breathtaking and the welcome we received at Kyriaki from our hosts Dave and Ann, was as warm as the sun. The studios have been clearly... more

Argentikon

24 Jun 2008

Recently, we visited the island of Chios, Greece and were fortunate to stay at the Argentikon Luxury Suites. We have to admit that this establishment was beyond our expectations. Not only the antique furnished suites with fine furnishings that carry you away to the elegant past, but also the surroundings, which make you feel like you are in paradise. Fragrant... more

We were so excited to arrive at what we thought would be a fabulous hotel. However, we ran into a number of issues that made our stay less than pleasant (and I promiese, we are not typically negative people!): 1) Booking was a nightmare. We spent 10 hours on the phone between the hotel and Travelocity trying to confirm our... more

We have been visiting the Greek islands for the past 10 years and were delighted to find that Chios Island was exactly what we were looking for……. a relaxing holiday on traditional Greek island with welcoming people, quiet beaches and wonderful scenery. Chios is absolutely our favourite island that we’ve visited so far. We stayed at the Kyriaki studio apartments... more

My wife and I stayed 4 nights, from May 25 through May 29 at Kyriaki Studios in the charming hillside town of Vollisos on the Greek Island of Chios. David and Ann could not have been more hospitable or more accommodating. One example...Air France lost our luggage and was not able to get it to the airport in Chios Town... more

Pipidis Traditional Houses

7 Jun 2008

We stayed here two nights at the end of May, which happened to be my husband´s birthday. We had a traditional studio, which is great for two people and all we needed for this trip, but next time we´ll get a house for the extra space and light. Rooms were really clean and had everything necessary, they were close to... more
