Cotommatae Hydra 1810

Beautiful, lots of character. Historic. Comfortable. Great breakfasts.

I cannot express how pleased we were with our stay here. Due to a booking snafu, we had to split our two night stay at two separate locations. So, we booked this hotel for our second night at the last minute. The first night was spent at a more expensive hotel with a waterfront view. However, after staying at the Cotommate Hydra 1810, we wished we had stayed both nights there. The staff was incredibly sweet and helpful- arranging luggage transfer and making dinner reservations for us as well. This was far superior to the treatment at our first location. The room was lovely with a historical feel, but with modern conveniences. Special touches included sampling of homemade cherry preserves and a sweet local to Hydra. The breakfast in the morning was outstanding with a huge variety of dishes to please diverse tastes. The grounds are spectacular as well with a lovely garden and terrace overlooking the countryside that was a lovely spot in the evening. It is only a five minute walk (maybe) from the bustle of the harbor but so tranquil and peaceful compared to our noisy experience staying by the waterfront. Overall, the experience felt more like being welcomed into a family home than a hotel. Absolutely fantastic! I highly recommend this location, and would be ecstatic to get to go back again sometime in the future! Thank you!!

There was nothing about this property we didn't love. The only possible negative would be that it is not on the waterfront, as some people really want that experience. As I said, this hotel far exceeds our waterfront hotel experience on Hydra.

everything was perfect- I cannot say enough good things about Yiannis and everyone there. Truly the greatest highlight of our trip to Greece.

Nice breakfast buffet. Room comfortable and the house is at a good location (close to the sea front but in a calm street). Yiannis explained what is where on the island and suggested some nice activities.

Our room was very close to the entry and reception and did not feel very private.

One of the original mansions converted to a pretty, historic hotel. Loved all the courtyards, balconies, sitting areas, little gardens. Very friendly and helpful staff. Thank you Yanni! Location perfect, 300 yards from the port; busy, touristy area with all the restaurants and shops. But the hotel itself is in very quiet, peaceful area. Breakfast was nice, maybe should be more varied from day to day. Classic Greek breakfast.

Being a historic mansion with much of the furnishings still original and restored, things are pretty, but not modern. AC could be little better, but was acceptable. Bathroom little cramped, lot of water splashing. No big deal.

They ran out of food at breakfast one day, even though we were not late. That was not really appropriate considering it was part of the rate.
