Fos Hydra Residence

We stayed in a port view suite. It was a large room that was nicely furnished with every amenity imaginable - ear plugs, eye shade, dental and shave kits, etc. The shower had good pressure and lots of hot water. The bed was comfortable, although the pillows were hard for my taste. AC worked well, although it seemed to stop cooling during the night and we woke up sweating both nights we stayed. There was just a very thick comforter so it was either on or off. Would have been nice to have had a sheet, as well. Service was exceptional by the staff. Breakfast is limited to coffee and fruit but a bakery is nearby. It is located very close to the ferry dock and help was provided for our luggage. As in most places in Hydra there were a lot of steps - we were on the top floor. The property is a newly renovated mansion and it has been very well done.

Brilliant boutique hotel! The design and feel of the room was great. Great use of outdoor terrace space too. Friendly staff. Location is super close to the port. Shame about the lack of breakfast provisions in the hotel, but otherwise could not fault it.

Absolutely loved our stay at Fos Hydra, a fantastic property that is so well located. Beautiful rooms, views and communal areas a very welcoming / helpful team. Lots of lovely small touches and insider tips given as well. Thank you for having us!

This was the most amazing stay! It is a renovated mansion and it is done to perfection! The staff are so friendly and helpful, in particular Jon and Aphrodite. Do not hesitate to book a stay here. Centrally located, close to the port. They even met us at the port and transported our luggage.

This hotel is a wonderful new addition to the Hydra hotel scene. The restoration they did of a historic building near the port is exquisite. Rooms are spacious, filled with antiques, and beautifully decorated. The rooms are equipped with all the modern amenities you could ask for - double vanities, luxurious showers with fabulous water pressure, fluffy duvets, Nespresso machines, and abundant storage. The location is ideal, just steps from the port. No schlepping up and down steep hills needed. The panoramic views over the town of Hydra from some of the rooms and the terraces are stunning. Additionally the staff couldn't be lovelier. They meet you at your ferry to assist you with your luggage (even though it is super close to the port, there are a few flights of stairs involved in getting up to the hotel). They greet you warmly every time you come and go. They are eager to assist with any request you may have. Unfortunately there is no gym or pool. This is somewhat to be expected from a small hotel like this (just 9 rooms), however. The truth however is that this really should have been a four star review based on one factor - the food and beverage program. I just didn't want to ding them publicly given how new they are, and how great the hotel's potential is. I have two suggestions for them to address this: First, please do something about the lack of breakfast. I realize there is no kitchen, and the hotel is tiny, so doing a full breakfast would be a big ask. But I suggest that you put fresh fruit and a few pastries out every morning at the coffee station. The fruit that is there currently is basically rotten and inedible. All you need to do is make sure that it is fresh and additionally put out a box of croissants for people to help themselves to. Given the large lunches and dinners everyone is having in Hydra, a croissant and a piece of fruit is all most people really need, and it would make an enormous difference. If people want a more elaborate breakfast, then they could go to the cafe nearby as they need to do today. Second, please do something about the evening bar service. Today there is a drinks menu out, however all the spirits are kept in a locked cabinet, and there is no attendant to actually make the drinks for you. It's a very frustrating situation! I think there is an easy solution here that I have seen done at several other small boutique hotels. Please just put out an honor bar instead. You wouldn't need an attendant here. People could help themselves to spirits and wine, and then would need to mark down on a sheet of paper their room number and the drinks they took. Given the clientele of this hotel, I don't think you would have a big problem of fraud. In fact, it could become a new revenue stream for the hotel. But overall we had an amazing stay. If you would just rectify these two things, it would have been perfect!

¡La pasamos de maravilla! Fue una experiencia fantástica y el personal fue increíblemente hospitalario. El hotel estaba impecable y sin duda lo recomendamos al 100%.
