Bratsera Hotel Hydra

The breakfast buffet was excellent. The pool was cool enough for those greek hot days. Drinks good, I thought a bit spendy. But i did many anyway. My only negative, i was not aware of all the stairs and no elevator. I'm traveling with a friend that uses a cane. Even a flight of stairs in our room to get to the bathroom. Beautiful place, i will return and ask for a lower lever room.

The pool and grounds were lovely and peaceful, the location great and the buffet breakfast fantastic. Our room was a little small and bed not all that comfortable but overall I loved it.

The entire property has such a thoughtful and beautiful design, and I felt instantly at peace being there. Gorgeous antique rooms and common areas. Wonderful and helpful staff! Excellent breakfast buffet full of fresh local ingredients. Delicious welcome cookie and great room service, not that you need it - the restaurant has a lovely patio overlooking the pool and gardens full of trees and hot pink bougainvillea. My room had lovely Juliet windows that opened up onto this same interior courtyard, and in the morning you wake up to the sounds of monastery bells, chirping birds and a nearby rooster or two. Add to all of this the fact that the hotel is a five minute walk from the beautiful port. It was a wonderful experience and I can’t wait to visit again and maybe take advantage of the morning yoga classes and the local book club.

Everything about this hotel was amazing. Location is a short walk from the ferry. It had so much charm and beauty just as Hydra. The breakfast was so delicious and well presented. I loved the lattes. I would come back here again. Would recommend this hotel and Hydra to all my friends and family.

The old historic part of the hotel is beautiful. Wonderful history and elegant antique simplicity. The staff are sweet, friendly and accommodating. We booked one of the double rooms as it was all That was left and these sit in the modern block. These small rooms are very simple, verging on basic. The bed sits on a platform with what felt like futon style mattresses which were incredibly firm/hard. The linen and pillows were great though. A few touches such as a mini bar and real coffee in the rooms would have been appreciated.

Amazing service and very kind people, very exciting swimming pool under the trees, delicious breakfast and food, but uncomfortable bed and dirty room.

We loved our stay at the Bratsera and even extended it from one night to two, changing rooms in the process. The rooms, common areas, pool and checkin were lovely, as were the staff. Breakfast was a high point and we really appreciated coming back to a dip in the pool after a day wandering Hydra or at the beach.

We loved this hotel. It’s the most special on the island, very enchanting just like hydra. The team are amazing and we’re very accommodating. All the service was wonderful! We can’t wait to go back!

It was unfortunate.. Beautiful lobby and it created such a high expectation of the room. Front line staff were very nice. I love unique hotels and this was about to set the expectation of it and then we got in our room.. Air conditioning was not working properly, room floor was dirty probably hadn't mopped in weeks. The shower was leaking water as the seals on door was falling apart. I wish they payed closer attention to detail.

The hotel is in an old sponge factory and had a very nice design charm to it. The staff were incredibly friendly from the receptionists, to the wait staff and the cleaners. Pool always had a casual laid back atmosphere and the staff were always present in a non-intimidating way if you wanted to order drinks or snacks. Breakfast was simple but well presented. There was a breakfast menu that you could order eggs from which we did. Unfortunately we didn’t get a chance to try the dinner menu as the location of the hotel was right at the top of a perfectly located street with great food at all the restaurants. Super close to the main activity in the harbour and easily walkable to everything you need. Midway through our 1 week stay we felt like welcome locals and the staff always greeted us like friends. Would highly recommend, we will most certainly be back.
