Hotel Ploes

Outstanding. The cocktails are the best we have ever had (and we drink a lot of cocktails!). Ilya the barman was absolutely incredible and the staff were very kind. This is a MUST do in Syros. Highlight of our trip. Thank you!!!

A wonderful place to spend your vacation in Syros ! Everyhting was perfect : the dream rooms, the stunning decoration, and the perfect location right next to the center. All the team is very welcoming !

We have to disagree with superlatives. For sure, this is a nice hotel, in a beautiful and tasteful house. We had a nice upper room, with every comfort. The breakfast is very good, with a lot of choice. And the breakfast times are wonderful, until 1 PM, so you can have a nice and leisurely brunch. And the island and the town are really lovely. For us, it was certainly not a rating 5 however, rather between 3 and 4. The hotel is not cheap at all. The welcome was OK, but the information we got about restaurants was in a rush and hardly understandable, names of restaurants hand written on a map and hardly readable. They give you a small printed paper with opening hours of a few sights/museums. For two of them the hours/day were incorrect, whereas the internet sites were fully reliable. Would it be too much to organise a pick up for free at the port? In the end it costs only a couple of euros, but it is about a gesture. We stayed 6 nights and had to leave 1 night early for personal reasons. No reimbursment, no gesture. Of course, this is completely in line with the policy and conditions, no complaint about that. But would it be too much to do a gesture, and reimburse one breakfast (not taken), or give the couple of beers we had in the bar for free? By the way, the cancellation policy of this hotel is extremely severe. We had to pay 50% at reservation (many months ago), and 50% one month before arrival. It was fully in line with the conditions, and the client has the choice to book or not. But we are very experienced travellers, we always book flexible rates for personal reasons, but this hotel simply did not offer that. For us, it is every nice place, but it felt as if money counts for the for the management in the first place. We will probably return to Syros one day, but not sure to that hotel. We have many experiences where a commercial gesture was given in a much more proactive and friendly way.

Had the best stay at Hotel Ploes, my wife and I rate this as our best hotel experience, we have had. The staff are excellent and so attentive to our needs and the breakfast on the terrace overlooking the sea and surrounding historic building was superb. The convenient location and swimming off the hotel's own sea platform were also a highlight.

A splendid experience that goes beyond the usual hotel stay in Ermoupolis. Ploes is an art palazzo with a rare view to the Aegean from a serene side of the island's capital. It was from this terrace, where we'd have breakfast every morning. We stayed at a fantastic, beautifully ornamented room marveling at the paintings and artwork at each corner of the hotel. The center was a 3 minute walk from the hotel. The owners were wonderful. We had an unforgettable time there!

Lia and Kostas have worked very hard over the years to make it happen. A truly small luxury hotel located in the best area of town (Vaporia) right by the sea with awsome views. The rest is for you to come to explore and discover...
