Hydra is a wonderful place for scenery-gazing and long quiet walks (soundtrack: goat bells, cocks crowing and the occasional donkey bray) - past the monasteries, to the peak of Mount Eros, or across and a scramble down to Limnioniza Beach which we had entirely to ourselves... Our two best meals were both at Techne, where the food is technically accomplished, harmonious and subtle. Jeff Koons' Apollo Wind Spinner at the Deste Project Space Slaughterhouse is a fun diversion on the road to Mandraki. And the many cats seem by and large in good health and well tended thanks to Hydra Ark.

Charming island in a 2 hour ferry ride from Piraeus.
Charming island in a 2 hour ferry ride from Piraeus. Lots of waterside cafes and other restaurants in the center. Nice easy walks along the water, or steeper hikes up the hillside. Many shops. A good place for relaxing.

What I liked the most is that there were no cars, you can go everywhere on foot, very picturesque, quite, the people are friendly and polite, the food was great a bit expensive in elegant restaurants though.
I would like to go again!

NIce island. No cars. Beaches easy to access. Plenty o decent restaurants
Sometimes Hydra Town gets a bit touristy mostly when the big passenger boats come in. The business goes when the passenger ships leave! Nice opportunities for walks outside town, beautiful environment. The town is clean and there are some small supermarkets to get supplies.

Pros: Clean, great food, many options, a lot to see.
Pros: Clean, great food, many options, a lot to see. Good for walking, has small horses and donkeys for transportation. No cars. Everything in walking distance.
Cons: many of the restaurants were not open (March 2024), while their websites said they were. Relevantly pricey. Ugly, monstrous yachts moored at the front of the little harbour. Expect tourists with an attitude - not very friendly.
Since this is a newer property, I will be very detailed. Location is wonderful and room fully newly renovated and excellent in quality apart from an air conditioner that did not cool the room more than a few degrees. (similar air conditioner currently at a different hotel in Santorini puts out much cooler temperatures in much larger space .) Only 3 apts so very quiet apart from some night Restarant chatter below several yards away. TV nice. Beds comfortable … on firmer side if that matters to you. Nice to have the TV.
This is a lovely small hotel set just back from the port so lovely and quite but very close to everything. They don't do breakfast but there is a supermarket close by and a wonderful bakery around the corner. They have a lovely terrace where you can eat in the mornings and there is a kettle in the room which we loved. Our room was small but very adequate and the bed was very comfortable. The owner was very pleasant and always on hand to help we would definitely stay again and Hydra is just such a magical place .
We were surprised at how lovely the room was even in its simplicity, with furniture that matched the vintage building, a view over the rooftops of hydra, nice crispy sheets and an efficient AC unit. Efie and her family took great care of us and gave good advice on what to see and where to eat. The hotel was easy to get to on foot, and a few steps up from a souvenir shop where you could find Efie or a family member to help out with anything. Hydra is a magical place and staying at Pension Efie added to the charm.
This is a beautifully quaint inn perfectly located in Hydra. The view from the double room with private balcony and sea view is outstanding, possibly one of the best views of Hydra. This is the only place I would want to stay in Hydra and I have stayed at top 5 star hotels around the world. But remember this is a quaint little inn so keep that in mind, so don't expect Jeeves to be at your beckon call, but George the owner will do what he can to help.
Everything exceeded our expectations, Katerina was amazing and very attentive, she was there anytime we needed anything, the two ladies at the house keeping department were amazing as well, the room was super clean and the lady that owns the place is very friendly and helpful! We had the best room of the hotel, the private balcony made everything even more outstanding, the view was just wonderful! The best choice in Hydra, we will be back for sure!
Great location just steps away from the port. Our room was on the back side of the hotel and was very comfortable and quiet. There is a great self service kitchen for coffee, tea, and juice in the morning with the nicest balcony overlooking the port. Wonderful views and George, the proprietor, is very nice and helpful making sure you have a great stay.
This hotel is an institution, an old sponge factory turned into a hotel. No wonder it won a European Heritage Award 20 years ago. Some may judge some of the rooms a bit small or rudimentary, but that is part of the Bratsera adventure. I come here if there’s availability on all my Hydra visits. Friendly and competent staff. Excellent bteakfasts.
The staff was fantastic friendly and helpful. The room was very clean with good air condition. The transparent shower area was easily covered with a curtain. We had access to a beautiful rooftop terrace with a fantastic view. The delicate breakfast was served at the terrace. This hotel was an important contribution to our lovely stay at Hydra.
The host family was extremely warm and made us feel very comfortable!
Hotel location is barely 5 minutes from the ferry stop and since I had a balcony room, the view was fantastic! I would surely recommend to stay here for 1-2 nights since Hydra is a great place to soak in and relax.
Everything was great - starting from the location - just few minutes from the port and no stairs (rare in Hydra ;-)), to very nice hotel with comfortable and super clean room, lovely patio and the most important - Jenny and Nikolaos were so nice and helpful
The hotel is lovely, the staff is very kind and welcoming. Our room and its terrace were fantastic. A very short walk from great restaurants and the port. We booked here because of the hotel location and its pool, and we wish we could've stayed longer!
Wonderful 3 room guesthouse that functions like a small boutique hotel. Crazy beautiful bathroom, comfortable bed, nice courtyard and high touches like wine, coffee and snacks in your room. Perfect location- easy walk from the harbor.
Lovely little boutique hotel on Hydra. Our room was quiet, spacious, extremely clean& comfortable. Slept like a log here! Breakfast was on a lovely outdoor terrace and was very decent. A very pleasant and relaxing experience.
A lovely small hotel in the heart of Hydra. A short walk to all the nearby restaurants, galleries, shops & beaches. Great staff who organised for us to check in early. Comfortable bed & good shower. Highly recommended.
The location was perfect. The room was quiet. It didn't have a balcony but you could sit at the garden of the hotel, which was very nice. The hotel provided towels for the sea!
We loved this Boutique Hotel. The location was perfectly situated. We were welcomed with warmth and the staff went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable
