We first stayed at the Alkyon Hotel in 1993 on our honeymoon. Since then the journey to Syros (or Siros) has not been simple. Now with flights to Mykonos from Manchester, and an acceptable ferry service to Syros we relived our trip of 14 years ago. The hotel and owners remain the same, and the good thing is that the... more

We decided to island hop for our annual holiday and Syros was our last stop. The Hotel Alkyon is about a 20 minute taxi ride from the port. From the moment we walked through the door, we were made to feel like a part of the family. The rooms are well-equipped with safe, AC, ceiling fan and full-sized fridge. There... more

After a bad experience in Ermoupolis (port-capital of the island), we have stayed at the beautiful Alkyon Hotel. We can really say we've never been anywhere we've been made to feel so welcome.

Yes we are all a little older (after 14 years we would be) but the hotel is still in its glorious unspoilt location, the... more

The first time we stayed at the Alkyon we picked it from the web without any ref. to any other recommendation. What an inspired choice. Its at Mega Gialos as far from Ermoupolis as is possible to get and very quiet. The host Jack(translation from the greek) is the president of the local tourist authority and his good lady wife... more
