Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This hotel is super convenient, directly across from the ferry port, near all sorts of restaurants and shops, and within walking distance of a beach and some historical sites. The staff is super nice and our room was large and comfortable. We spent three wonderful nights there and wouldn't hesitate to return.

Other than being a stones throw from the ferry port, bus depot and lots of shops and restaurants, the Hotel Kontes offers nothing more than basic accommodation. For a couple of middle aged ladies we found the beds to be the most uncomfortable of any hotel we’ve ever stayed in... springs poking in our backs and rock hard mattresses. The included breakfast comes with delicious Greek yogurt and honey, two slices of bread with jam and butter, coffee and juice Again- very basic. The addition of fresh fruit and pastries would be most welcome. Bathroom is beyond tiny and shower leaks all over the tile floor - be warned as it’s very slippery! Also, this was the only hotel we stayed at on our Greek island hopping adventure that does NOT provide beach towels to guests. Management should change this as who travels overseas with a beach towel in their luggage??? Front desk staff were very friendly and helpful.

Stayed for one night. The owner is Irish-Greek so no problems for English speakers. She was very helpful, showing us room options before we made up our mind. Has a very useful left luggage facility. Literally one minute away from the port. Rooms clean, great shower. Perfect for a one-night stopover.

The hotel was the first building I saw when we arrived at the port in Parikia. We stayed in a triple room for three nights in the hotel. The room was lovely and spacious and had a nice balcony. The room was clean and beds were comfortable. The hotel is a 10/15 minute walk to Lividia beach and a short walk to the bus stop. I would highly recommend this hotel and it was a brilliant place to stay for our first time in Paros. The lady working on reception (I didn’t get her name) was very helpful and friendly. I will definitely be back to stay in this lovely hotel.

We pulled into Parikia port and were relieved to see the sign “Hotel Kontes” on the building and less than a five minute stroll from the port. We were fortunate to have an early check-in and warm reception. The wi-fi was spot on every single time. Beds were comfortable. Elevator was working well. Room was clean. Nice balcony and the room itself was spacious. I think the best part of this hotel was the location. Close to buses and ferries for Antiparos and Marcello Beach. Plus in walking distance to small beaches near Pariaka. Just a heads up, no kettle in the room but there was a fridge. Also the shower was a little on the small side. Strangely enough I took no photos of this hotel and it was one of my favourites in my Big Fat Greek Holiday. How odd!?!

This is a perfect hotel at the most ideal location if you arrive Paros by ferry. Hotel is just across the street of the ferry terminal. Very convenient when you arrive, just reach the hotel by foot within 2 minutes. Save on transport. Just arrange the rental car to be sent to hotel at the time when you are ready to venture the island - saving time and money. The reception staff was also very easy going, making checking in very swift. I highly recommend anyone to stay in this hotel. It is perfect for family, as it has 2 bedroom configuration. Hotel is clean and new. The only point to note is that hotel does not provide kettle for boiling water. Is this a norm in Europe? Not a big problem because supermarket is just nearby. I'll definitely stay here again if I goo back to Paros.

Literally in the middle of the action-packed Parikia waterfront, we enjoyed our easy stay at Hotel Kontes. Clean, spacious, and quiet rooms, right across the road from the ferry. It was great to not have to drag our luggage all around Paros (they even let us store our luggage there after checking out while awaiting our outbound afternoon ferry). The Manager Vana V. could not be more accommodating or helpful. Reservations were easy to make, and pre-trip email communication put us at ease. We opted to have breakfast included in our competitive price. Area is safe, and you are within easy walking distance of incredible restaurants and great shops. We went during the July Festivals, which included free live music, traditional dance, refreshments, & nightly merriment, among the friendly locals and Parikia's hilly and narrow passageways, edged with pretty flowered-filled sea views on-island.

Our family & friends of 10 ppl could not have been more welcomed and accommodated as we were at Hotel Kontes! Family & staff took great care of everything, from holding our luggage, giving us directions, suggestions, cooking us an awesome authentic Greek lunch/dinner! Our rooms were ready on time, they were spacious, and clean! The Hotel is right across the street from the ferry, easy walking distance! The shops were right around the corner, along with many other restaurants! Walking distance to the beach area as well. Wish we could of stayed longer! Looking forward to going back again soon!

This hotel is located just next to the harbour, 1 min from the ferry terminal. Very convenient if you arrive/ leave with the ferry. Hotel is clean, fresh, have brand new air condition. It has an amazing TV with all the channels (sky). We had one room with a small balcony overlooking the street and one big room with a shared balcony overlooking the seafront. Breakfast is simple but good( tea or coffee, yoghurt, bread with jam/butter and ham/cheese. The breakfast is served on the terrace in front of the hotel, with view on the harbour. This is the equivalent of a premier inn in UK
