Ikaros Star Hotel

The hotel was great and I will definitely will be back ! Clean, comfortable, beautiful view from the balcony, good breakfast and a 10 minute walk to a messakti beach which is very convenient ! The owner, Mr.Zaxarias and Eleni where very kind and made me feel like home. As I had arrived late for my check in he offered to take me to and back from the restaurant by car as there was an uphill even though it was very close by. The next morning he prepared breakfast for me at 5:30am as I was there for work and had to leave very early. Thank you very much and hope to be back soon.

everything was great !

The hotel was peaceful and silent, the beach is 10 minutes walk and in our opinion it is the best beach in the island (Mesakti Beach). The staff was very kind and helpful, they helped and gave us good advice, eg.: which way is the best to visit tourist attractions or hidden places. The room was very clean, and they provided good breakfast every day. Thank you!

The fridge in the room was a bit noisy, and we felt the bed a bit hard, maybe because we usually sleep on soft matress, but we got used to it.

Lovely, traditional hotel with friendly, helpful and wonderful staff. Genuinely welcoming and kind people. Room was clean, quiet, comfortable, well-equipped and serviced every day. We stayed in a Mountain View room but there was a good shared balcony to use which overlooked the sea. Breakfast was buffet style and a lovely occasion as you could sit out on the terrace. Short walk to local shops, cafes and restaurants and Mesakti beach. Quiet, peaceful place. Excellent value for money too.

Nothing - all great.

The hotel is in a good location in Gialiskari. Room was clean and breakfast was abundant. Mr Zaharias and his wife made sure that we had everything we need. They clearly gave insitructions on how to navigate Ikaria and its roads and educated us on the history of the island and its citizens. They sent us to great locations for food, festivals and hidden beaches.

parking was a bit hard especially because the hotel is on an uphill, but is pretty standard on an island like Ikaria.

Good location nearby everywhere you need to be in Ikaria: by car 10 minutes to Mesakti Beach and 20 min from Raches. You need a car because the hotel is located on a hill. Staff is very friendly and helpful. We paid 60 euro per night which is a cheap price.

Chemical hotel breakfast, beds were rock hard.

The breakfast met expectations. The staff was helpful and very pleasant. The parking situation is kind of a mess and I just ended up parking on the street because it was easier for me. There was an option to have our clothes washed too.

The parking situation first and foremost. No elevator too was difficult to ferry all of the luggage to the third floor. A bellhop or someone to bring the luggage to our room would have made my life easier. The cost to have clothes washed was a king’s ransom (€15 flat fee)
