We loved everything about the Hermes Hotel. The location is brilliant - right on the harbour of Ermoupoli, an easy, flat 10 min walk from the ferry, and a perfect base from which to explore this beautiful town. The staff were friendly and helpful and we enjoyed the daily breakfast. And our room was just incredible. We booked a Suite with Sea View which I think is one of the best rooms available at the hotel and it was wonderful - super-spacious, light, beautiful contemporary design with a separate sitting area, a huge bathroom (with shower and bath), and a terrace to die for. It's one the few times I've ever experienced a hotel (and room) far exceeding my expectations. We can't wait to return here in the future and would highly recommend this hotel if you're heading to Syros.

Nothing.

Totally thrilled with my one night stay at Hermes Hotel, staff so friendly (and spoke perfect English) hotel is well placed for charming Syros town, as well as the port & ferries, both in easy walking distance in 10 minutes. The hotel was super clean and quiet, and my gorgeous big, cool, room had a wonderful sea view balcony, and views of the garden. The bed was massive, and had super quality bed linen, so comfortable. Inside the hotel is a charming mix of exposed stone and some indoor trees, 2 storeys high! Breakfast was VERY good, both hot and cold. I live on Tinos now, just arrived 3 weeks ago, but I am sure I will be visiting Syros again quite often and will definitely try to stay at the Hermes.

Nothing really.

The location was great, situated at the edge of the sea on one side and looking out towards the port on the other. Finishing the evening with drinks overlooking the sea was a great end to every evening. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

The breakfast self service was a bit crowded with no obvious flow. Getting the cases in the hotel and up to our room wasn’t that easy.

The location was excellent, great views.

Limited breakfast choices. No beach towels and no tea and coffee in room.

We had a lovely stay at Hermes. The hotel is very well located and we were happy with our second floor room with balcony that overlooked the sea and gardens. Listening to the waves from our room was a delight. The room wasn't big, but had plenty of storage and places to put our things. We appreciated having a small fridge. We had a walk in shower which had a grab rail, something I wish all hotels would provide. The staff are very friendly, and efficient. Breakfast was included and we were very happy with the hot and cold selection, especially the cold meats and fried eggs. There was also a good choice of types of coffee. The bar is comfortable and a pleasant place for an evening drink. We loved the views from the hotel, the sea one side and the port the other. The location is perfect for visiting the town of Ermoupoli.

What a great hotel! It's a bit funky from the point of view of the lay-out (several levels that don't quite align, feels a bit like a maze), but after 1/2 day, I had it figured out. The location is superb - a little bit out of the way of tourists, and on one side looking at the harbor, on the other side looking at the sea (which I had - which was wonderful with the sound of the waves during the night). The bedroom was quite large, nicely appointed and a great bed; good bathroom; AC which I did not need to use; super clean. Breakfast was included with my rate, and was very diverse - savory vs. sweet, lots of options, and Greek coffee in addition to American and Italian coffee - loved it! The service was friendly and very supportive - front desk, breakfast, bar, and room service. I did not use the restaurant, but some people I met did, and said it was good.

Nothing! I'd stay there again in a heartbeat! It was truly a special place!

We really enjoyed our stay at Hermes and will definitely book here when visiting Syros again. It has a fantastic location not too far away from the port. We booked a sea view room and we were so happy with it - the balcony offered the most fantastic views stretching out across the water. Our room was large, very clean and the bed was big and comfy. The hotel has a great area with sun loungers and small steps down to the sea, making it really easy to go swimming. The breakfast is fairly basic but good for the price and with decent variety.

If I had to think of something I would say the hotel could perhaps do with a little bit of modernising and updating but ultimately it's a great place to stay, good value and we would go back for sure.

Good position close to restaurants and shops and about 5 mins walk to ferry terminal. Comfortable room with sea views. Good breakfast and attentive staff in all areas of hotel. Syros good choice for a longer stay. Only planned to stay 2 nights but ferry strike meant we stayed 5 nights. However turned out to be a lucky break as enabled us to explore the island.Ermoupolis attractive town and plenty of walks in the area. Some great beaches and seaside towns in South and West of the island so not just a city based holiday.Went in late October but weather in day was pleasant and much warmer in West of the island so sun and sea bathing possible.

Nothing really

Can't say even a bad word, because it was perfect. :) Very big room with two balconies, under our feet the sea. Central location, close to the ferry port, and has a small beach (with sunbeds and umbrellas) too. It was very clean, bottled water in the fridge, free toiletries, slippers, good lights in the room. Fast (and early) check-in (very kind and helpful lady at the reception). Great buffet breakfast, good variety of fresh food. The hotel was quiet, peaceful even though there were a lot of guests.

Low waterpressure in the shower. Cannot write any bad thing. :)

All the staff were polite,helpful and friendly. Food was lovely and nicely presented.the room was clean,spacious and very comfortable. I can highly recommend and would definitely go back .

I would have liked to have safer access to get in the sea for a swim as no swimming pool at the hotel. Rocks were a bit slippy , the safest access was a ladder down from a jetty but straight into deep water so not suitable for everyone.
