Hotel berhampiran Three Churches, Paros

Piccolo albergo nel centro di Paroikia in zona tranquilla ristrutturato da poco pulito ed arredato con gusto contemporaneo. La camera enorme dotata di terrazzino con un letto comodissimo e scelta di cuscini tutta sui toni del verdeazzurro Tiffany una meraviglia così pure il bagno con finestra e piastrelline a mosaico; tutto molto luminoso. Colazione a buffet in sala o terrazzino molto buona con prodotti freschi e musica/ambiente in sottofondo. La signora Markella che lo gestisce molto gentile e disponibile: mi ha sostituito la lampadina dell'abajour in tempo zero! Unico miglioramento sarebbe un armadio più grande, una sedia in più e qualche gancio per appendere le cose, per il resto perfetto. Ci tornerei sicuramente!

My partner and I stayed for five nights, renting a car for four days from the hotel. We stayed in a suite with a private pool and sea view that overlooked the main pool and dining area. The start of our stay was indeed sloppy. We took a ferry from Santorini to Paros, and advised reception of this the day before, as a transfer from the port to Mythic was included in our package. They had the information, yet attempted to reach us asking where we were as our driver couldn’t find us. While our ferry was significantly delayed, I assumed they would track the ferry and adjust accordingly. We waited for ten minutes for our driver to show up. Once we arrived, we were told to leave our bags at reception, and we got a tour of the hotel and it’s amenities , as our bags would be brought to our room. It took more than an hour for our bags to arrive, we even had time to go eat a meal at the pool before the bags got there. At this meal, we ordered two margs, and one was supposed to be priced at 13, the other 15 (spicy). We got charged 15 for each. 2€ isn’t a big deal, but it was sloppy. The car rental from the hotel was convenient, and necessary because the hotel is quite isolated otherwise with nothing within walking distance. The car was given to us with barely half a tank of gas, and again, as we discovered only a few hours into our drive, without ANY windshield wiper fluid, an obvious safety issue. We reported this to the front desk, with the manager standing there as we did it. Of course nothing was done about it for the duration of our rental. There was also no discount given for returning the car with 7/8s of fuel. Breakfast was quite good, but on at least two occasions we were served stale bread, and not a little stale - I’m talking rock-hard, could be used as a weapon stale. The room itself was fine, except while we were given a bottle of white and some fruit on check-in, we naturally assumed our room’s fridge was on. We put the bottle in to chill, and a few hours later noticed it was warm. I saw the dial at the back and turned it to its coldest setting. 30 minutes later, nothing. Finally I pulled the fridge from it’s little cove to discover it wasn’t plugged in. Sloppy. The shower’s handle sprayed more water from the base of the shower head than the actual nozzle. The manager did say he’d send maintenance so fix it, and that was fixed, so credit where credit is due. He also comped us a couple’s 30 minute massage to make up for all the problems at the start of our stay. Our private pool had paint chips peeling off it, and whatever type of paint they used left small marks wherever you touched it (typically fingertips). You guessed it - sloppy. The menu is limited at the pool bar, so be prepared to rent a car to eat elsewhere. The main pool is amazing, and the masseuses were incredibly good and worth the 120€ for an hour. My 2€ - Mythic is great for 2 nights max if all you want to do is relax by the pool, drink, eat, and maybe workout once.

We stayed at Paliomylos for 3 nights in September during our trip to Paros. From the very beginning, the staff at Paliomylos was the picture of hospitality. They answered so many of my questions via email prior to my arrival and gave me so many great tips for our trip. They also arranged for shuttle to/from the ferry port to the hotel. We were upgraded to a studio room with sea view upon arrival, which was so nice of them. The room was great. If you get the studio, it comes with a kitchenette, if you wanted to cook. We didn't end up using anything in the kitchenette besides the fridge, since they provided breakfast and we ate all our meals outside. Breakfast was a little bit different every morning, which is quite nice - especially for those staying longer than a few days. I loved the variety and the fact that everything tasted homemade. The staff here is stop notch. We would slip out for breakfast and by the time we came back, our room was made up with fresh towels. We felt so well taken care of at Paliomylos. The hotel is nicely located, where it's just a 10-15 minute walk to all the restaurants in the main town area. But it's far enough that it's quiet at night. It's also close to a tiny beach, which is about a 5 minute walk away.

This is an amazing hotel! A few days before we arrived the hotel got in contact with us to arrange a pick up from the port which was great and saved us having to sort this out ourselves. Room: We had intially booked the basic room, however on check-in they gave us a complimentary upgrade which was fantastic!! The room was beautiful, with a jacuzzi in. It also had Netflix on the TV which was a brilliant touch. Every evening they came with fresh towels and left a choclate on the pillow so we had clean towels for the morning. This was on top of the room being cleaned everyday. Breakfast: Amazing! You chose from a menu, its made fresh with lots of choices. They give you ice cold water as soon as you sit which is a nice touch. You could have as much fresh juice and hot drinks as you wanted. Pool/Bar: Perfect! It was a really chilled vibe, they had music playing all day but it was nice and chilled. The pool was lovely and had great views out across the village and sea front. All the drinks and cocktails were tasty. Staff: We found every staff member to be lovely and helpful, from the driver to check in receptionist, the staff working during breakfast and throughout the day to the evening. Resort-Naoussa: Stunning!!! This place is like stepping onto the actual set of the film mama mia! I've never been anywhere so pretty. You can get lost in the maze of streets which is full of shops, quirky bars and resturants. It's centered around a small fishing harbour, which comes alive at night. The place is honestly stunning. We island hopped, staying in Santorini, Naxos and Mykonos but Paros was hands down our favourite island. The hotel is in the heart of it all with everything on your doorstep. Thank you for a lovely stay, we hope to return again next year !
