Aeolos Hotel

It was a lovely property!

Great older place, good bones, with nice balcony rooms overlooking the ocean. Lobby needs a decorator to work with some of the cool stuff. Could be a great and inviting gathering place for piano and cocktails. Nice rooms, Good value and location.

Beautiful view. Pleasant staff and lots of dining in the area.

The hotel is situated less than a 10 minute stroll from the harbour, with great views across to Skopelos town. Little beach in front of hotel which was great for a sea swim. Hotel is exceptionally clean. Very traditional in appearance, if a little dated but it made a nice change from the trend for ultra modern Mykonian white out that many Greek hotels are going for. Staff were very friendly and approachable, from Reception to the Breakfast area. Good choice at Breakfast: hot, cold, fresh fruit, pastries etc. Dining area never felt busy and was nice to have the outdoor terrace to sit on. Garden view room was very spacious, clean and quiet. Yes it could do with a few minor touch ups but nothing major. Pool area had plenty of sunbeds, we didn’t use the pool to swim but thought the pool tiles could do with a good clean. Overall we would be happy to return to this hotel. It offers great value in a wonderful location. Just don’t expect an ‘all bells and whistles’ Four star, more a very good traditional Greek hotel.

Hotel is located just a short walk from the bus station and harbour area on the main coastal road, with plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. Hotel has a calm laid back vibe suited to a relaxing holiday, had the feeling of a tradition Greek family run hotel. The rooms at the front of the hotel are a little more traditional and a little darker, but spacious with good air conditioning and very quiet. Breakfast was simple and plentiful with the option to eat inside or on the terrace, overlooking the pool and bay. The pool bar was friendly and had a great music selection, and was never at an excessive volume. Overall we loved our stay here and would definitely stay again.

Lovely hotel overlooking the harbour. Lovely pool and bar, great service from George and Sofia. Easy walk to tavernas and port.

L'albergo è carino, semplice e molto pulito con una buona colazione. È molto tranquillo e con una bella vista sul mare.

We stopped in the Aeolos for 6 days in June. Rooms were comfortable, we had a sea view room which was quite spacious and had a huge amount of wardrobe space. Furniture is a bit brown and dated but is good quality. I found the beds to be a bit soft for my liking. My only major concern with the hotel was the state of the bathroom in our room. On the first night I discovered the corner shower cubicle had a door missing which made it almost impossible to have a shower without getting the bathroom floor very wet. I reported the problem to reception but they just said “they knew about it” and couldn’t give me time for when it would be fixed. I can see no excuse for putting a customer into a room with a faulty shower, especially as the hotel wasn’t full at this stage. In the end it took 4 days for them to fix the shower. When the shower was fixed it became clear how the door probably got broken in the first place. The cubicle with the door closed is tiny. Making it difficult to turn round without hitting the tap (and changing water temperature) and bending over was impossible. Also the water temperature seemed to vary whilst having a shower without touching the tap. I found breakfast choice a little limited for a 4 star establishment, although what there was well prepared. The pool are was nice with enough quality sun loungers and was set in nice grounds. There is a pool bar open till 7pm but the bar internal to the property was not open whilst we were there, so you couldn’t use the hotel to socialise at night. The hotel is in a good location about 15 minutes walk to the busy area of the town where most bars and restaurants are but there are also restaurants close to the hotel that were nice. Overall I’s say the hotel was Ok but nothing special. The incident with the shower put me right off though.

Location of hotel very good , food average. Our main concern was the amount of steps to room ,no lift available, would not recommend for anyone with mobility issues. Staff excellent and very friendly.

The hotel is in a good frontline location. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. It's approximately a 10-15 minute flat walk into town. The hotel is very dated but clean. The pool area has good comfortable toppers on all sun beds. There aren't a great deal of sunbeds but the dates we were there we never had a problem getting one, this however might be different in the height of the season. The pool is clean but quite small and not particularly inviting. The poolside bar tender plays loud, predominantly rock type music throughout the day which was annoying as other than that it was a peaceful area. It is classed as a 4* hotel but I feel that due to the lack of facilities, it should be classed as 3* at best. Breakfast room is open 8am until 11am which was good however it appears that the breakfast is prepared at 8 and should you go in any later the 'hot' food was either luke warm or cold, although there is a small choice of food to choose from and there is also a good coffee machine. Regarding Skopelos itself......Word of warning for families with young children..... although the resort is very quaint and feels safe, beware of the many scooters and motorbikes that ride through the small alleyways without a thought for any pedestrians. Overall Skopelos is a lovely resort and the people are fabulous, some of the friendliest we've come across.
