Despotiko

I just recently returned from Mykonos, where we stayed at the Despotiko Hotel. The Family that runs the Hotel are great people... very friendly and helpful. Nice Basic pool for sun and relaxing... the rooms are pretty simple and basic... which works in Mykonos, because hopefully you won't spend a ton of time in your Hotel Room. The location is sweet... probably the best part of the Hotel. It's located right by the Bus stops to get to the beaches, and the nightlife, restaurants, and shopping etc are just a couple minutes walk away.... more

This hotel is only five minutes walk from the bus station where you catch the buses to the beaches and to the start of the shopping alleyways of Little Venice. Lovely patio/pool area. Only warning is those five minutes are just about straight uphill from the town and after a day of sightseeing can be a struggle. Highly recommend the Despotiko.

We stayed at the Despotiko Hotel in Mykonos, Greece in April of 2006. The hotel is clean, the staff friendly and helpful. It is close to shops and restaurants but one must be able to walk up and down steep hills to get to these places. Cabs are available.

The rooms are nothing fancy but are adequate. The color TV received English language stations. The fridge was... more

We stayed at this hotel May 25-28, 2004. We were placed in a room that had a great view (#13), but with this comes traffic noise from the busy street right below the balcony! For light sleepers, I would recommend requesting a room farther back on the property. The location of this hotel was perfect. It was a five minute walk to get into Mykonos Town. There were several markets, gyro stands and even an internet cafe within just a short walk. The bus station was close too, making it easy to get around the island. The room was... more

We recently returned from Greece and this was our first stop, What a Fantastic hotel. It was just above the heart of Mykonos, 50km walk to town center. Yet when inside the charming 60 room hotel it was as if you were in another world. The interior was exquisite, quaint, marlbe and so clean. The pool area was beautiful . The rooms are very small, most of european rooms are. But very clean and the atmosphere was great. breakfast buffet was good, nothing special though. Everyone was so helpful and friendly. A lot of our friends... more
