The Pelican Hotel is Mykonos' best deal, by far! It advertizes(and charges) as a two-star but it really is a boutique hotel (well worth three stars), especially the double rooms on the upper level. Each room has a large patio, equiped with chairs or benches and a table. The view of Mykonos town is great and watching the sunsets is definitely a plus! There is a price to pay for this view, however....as the hotel is situated on the top of a hill. This means that reaching the hotel on foot from the center of town is quite a walk, especially the last couple of hundred meters where the street is quite steep, especially if you are loaded down with luggage!
Nevertheless, we enjoyed the very nice rooms, recently redecorated, the ultra-chic bathrooms and the overall look of the hotel. Breakfast is included in the price and they provide a well-stocked buffet, with juice, good croissants, excellent coffee, various types of bread, eggs, cheese, jams, yogurt, honey, cereals, the works.
If you advise them of your arrival time (airport or harbor) they will come and pick you up free of charge. This hotel is hard to beat!

I have stayed in this hotel during my visits to Mykonos island many times.What i really like about this hotel are:
1/Really nice views,especially if you book a double room on the top floor which are also have a private veranda to watch the amazing sunsets of the aegean
2/A nice breakfast with not so many but really fresh things to eat,especially the bakery goods.(the owner manage one of the most famous bakeries of the island)
3/Tottaly good value especially on the super high season of August...
4/The location of the hotel is great..it is in mykonos town but in comparison with other mykonos town hotels have some advantages...it is 2 ninutes walking from the buses heading to the beaches..the location is tottaly quiet,something rare in the streets of the town where every day thousands of tourists walking at night(nightlife of this island is among the best in the planet),and furthremoe is on a little cliff which you can have really nice views of the port and the mountains of tinos island from the other side of the sea....
5/The staff are nice people,most of them local myconians which have 20 years old experience of everything having to do with tourism and especially for mykonos island,,,,,,
6/the rooms are clean and basic,exept the elegant rooms which have something more to give you on the subject of decoration and views....(better bathrooms too)
I tottaly recomend it if you want to spend less,having a room with views and be close to everywhere..i recomend it

My wife and I stayed in Hotel Pelican for three nights in mid-May 06. Once we grew accustomed (quickly) to the area in which it was located (up on a hill), we grew to love this place. Maria, who attended to us, is a really nice, sincere and friendly lady who made our stay a really pleasant and memorable one.

The place is very clean and beautifully decorated to give a nice homely and safe feeling. The superior rooms where we stayed in were relatively spacious, with a nice balcony that gives a fantastic view of Mykonos Town, new and old ports, as well as the sun set. It also comes with a safe to boot.

Breakfast was a handsome spread of bread, pastries, fruits etc etc. Maria would also serve us freshly made croissants which were almost perfect for the morning. The bathroom was also spacious and tastefully designed.

While the walk up the hill to the hotel takes a bit of our breath away, it is well worth it, especially when you can enjoy the commanding view of the town and waterfront from it.

I'd not hesitate to return to Hotel Pelican on my next visit to Mykonos.
