Pros: very friendly staff (felt almost at home), good dining options (buffet, restaurant, bar), free transport to the local beaches (Koukounaries and Maratha) Cons: no lifts. It was difficult to get the pram 3 stairs up and down at least 2-3 times a day. No inclusivity for disabled as well (I've done a reservation for my parents in law, which i had to cancel - received a full refund for this- because there was other means of disabled people to get to different levels. I was disappointed for a 5star hotel, not to have a provision for disabled. Not recommended for families with small kids that have got prams or people with moving difficulties.

Run down hotel . Rooms in dire need of renovation . No elevator ! Only positive was the friendly staff . Would not recommend this hotel the pictures are deceiving. We rented 3 rooms -2 where on the 5 th floor and where very dated . 1 on ground floor was a little more renovated but not up to a good standard . The shuttle bus they have stops at 9 pm . Greek summer nights don’t start till 9 or 10 pm for dinner .

The building & rooms are a little dated. Some maintenance is definitely required. Our room was spacious, but had a badly scratched floor & missing panel on the vanity in the bathroom. The staff were wonderful & always helpful. A nice bonus to have a complimentary bus into town that you booked the night before. No lifts, but the staff helped with our cases so it wasn’t a problem.

The property was in poor condition. Air conditioner stunk like sewage, and entire 6th floor. Could not use! Maid service was horrible. Lacked cleaniness in rooms. Poor or lacked amenities. Staff was outright poor and not friendly. Buffet was crowded and service was not extended to other available area. There were holes in bathroom doors and prices for bar drinks were extremely expensive. I would avoid this place!

Difficult to get to the hotel without a car - especially with luggage. The bus stop, while "nearby", requires a steep climb either via stairs or their long driveway. The hotel does not have lifts and it requires another trek to get to the rooms. The beach is down the same steps, and even further down. The hotel should have shouldered the cost of the beach lounger given their rates are not cheap. Mediocre breakfast, which they did not make an effort for - but guess what? You have no choice as you need to trek to get to a place to eat. No free shuttle to town during the day - only at night. The rooms are beautiful, but this does not compensate for all the other issues.

We had a bad start with a no show transfer but the staff were amazing by generously making up for the mistake with complimentary dinner and wine - this turned a negative into a positive and we were very appreciative.

We were extremely disappointed The property , I am sure , in iits day , was stunning. However it is now ready for a complete revamp 1) No elevator ?? We were on the 6 th floor We found this bizarre Travellers arriving with luggage after a gruelling trip to get to Skiathos, have to schlep from the parking lot to the room. We were told by a stafff member that the elevators were removed in order to make more rooms to increase revenue. - enough said ! 2) Atmosphere as you walk in to lobby is very dark and dull and the front desk staff are too Not very welcoming or accommodating 3) Air Conditioning - In a warm environment , this was the only property I found in the area that had no air conditioning in the entrance , halls and common areas. Very unpleasant 4) Rooms. Tiny rooms / shower was broken and took a full day to repair a small part after we reported it at 8 am - Air condition in the room was very weak 5 ) Service. - The room beside us had a used partially eaten tray of room service food lying outside their door , on two occasions , for at least eight hours , attracting flies and smelling the already musky corridor out Not good to look at either 6) Corridors and common areas were sprayed every day with a very pungent air deodorizer , I assume to mask other odours. Very unpleasant 7) Breakfast - We could not eat breakfast at all as the dining area was infested with flies covering the exposed food inside the dining buffet area as well as at the tables.

It’s okay. Reception’s staff are not helpful, awful breakfast, food in the restaurant is not that great. I enjoyed renting a jeep to explore the beautiful island and the great food down town. Definitely come back here again but not stay in Skiathos palace hotel

Lovely hotel, friendly staff and beautiful grounds, in a great location. Room was a bit basic, but clean and tidy. Food was very good and the free bus to town a nice touch, although late both times (must be Greek time) we booked this. Also hired a couple of quads from Aegean near Reception. All in all everything was good.

The property was beautiful, quiet and very accommodating to my wife and I. Anything needed or requested was handled by the staff quickly and appropriately. Definitely 5 star hotel with all amenities needed. The staff were the nicest people in Athens who made us feel special. If you are thinking about staying here, book your room now you will not be disappointed.

We spent a week here in August 2023 for our family summer holiday. The hotel is lovely and staff were really helpful. It is a short walk to two beaches (2 minutes and 5 minutes) and they also have a free daily shuttle to and from both the beaches and Skiathos town. It is a 25 minute bus ride to the town, which has lots of lovely restaurants, especially along the port. If you get off at bus stop 4 (the hotel is bus stop 22) and walk down to the port, you get to see the lovely back streets. Just be aware that the hotel doesn’t have a lift and there are also lots of stairs down to the bus stop and to the beach, so if you have mobility issues the hotel maybe tricky. All in all it was a lovely stay and I recommended booking the Mama Mia boat tour at the hotel, even if you aren’t a fan of the movie, it’s a lovely day out (adults cost €40 each and €25 for a child).

Staff are very friendly and hospitable, Hotel’s free shuttle service to drop off and pick up from and to the port is very convenient. I love Greek people. The clear turquoise water of the many beaches around is stunningly beautiful. I would definitely would like to come back.
