Hotel berhampiran Catholic Church of Saint Zacharias, Tinos

We had a very warm welcome at Aeolis Tinos Suites, with helpful, friendly and responsive receptionists. The site was attractive, well laid-out with beautiful views, although it was accessible up an extremely steep slope. Different areas of the site were connected by pathways, slopes and steps, which would have been difficult for someone with mobility issues - but as the location was on a mountainside, this was hardly surprising! Rooms were very clean and well-equipped and we found the beds extremely comfortable. It was quite difficult to control the temperature of water in the showers, with the water becoming scaldingly hot quite suddenly. Breakfast staff were variable, and sometimes slow to bring coffee; we always had to ask for refills. Some tables were offered omelettes (in additional to the hot buffet); in 5 nights we were never asked if we'd like these. The quality and variety of food on offer for breakfast was quite good. The quality of food on the dinner menu was excellent, and staff were good, but we were disappointed to find that only Italian food was on offer, and no Greek food was available. Furthermore, we were only able to order pasta dishes as the pizza restaurant was being refurbished. Lastly, if you stay here, don't miss the village of Triandaros. The hotel is on the edge of the village, and it's well worth wandering round there.

This truly is a beautiful hotel in a perfect location. All the staff are so friendly and helpful. We had an amazing stay here for 5 nights and it was perfection from beginning to end. The hotel is stunning and is taken such good care of, it is immaculate. The restaurant is very good and all the food is freshly prepared and very tasty. We stayed one night for a BBQ dinner and it was delicious. Breakfast is in such a nice setting within the hotel and the buffet selection is varied as well as being able to select made to order items. The pool area is relaxing and vibrant at the same time with great music played throughout the day. The staff continually ensure you have everything you need. They offer a taxi service that you must use as the guys are very chatty and have some great recommendations on places to go. Do not hesitate to book here. It is right by a small beach and a handful of restaurants. It’s fun watching all the new cruise ships arrive.

We recently stayed at the Madalena, April 15-17th. Sakis and Dora at the Front Desk were OUTSTANDING! Between setting up our transportation to/from the ferry, to helping us to rent a scooter to providing crucial information for my girlfriend where to seek medical attention, Sakis and Dora were there. The breakfast was outstanding as was the staff supporting the breakfast area. The views were spectacular and the hotel's location made it so easy to walk to the downtown area. Thanks for a great stay! Joe & Michelle

Exceptional, beautiful, faultless! We were absolutely blown away by the high standard of service, cleanliness and attention to detail of this stunning hotel. We stayed for 7 nights, bed and breakfast. Arrival: Upon arrival, we were greeted with a watermelon mocktail, a steamed hot cloth and small hand sanitiser bottle. Friendly staff gave us a map of the town and useful information about taxis and restaurants etc. before escorting us to our room; helping to carry our luggage. Room: The room was spotless, gorgeous decor of crisp white sheets with pops of colour in the rug and artwork. Posh coffee machine. Complimentary bottle of local wine and snacks. Luxury toiletries in the bathroom (which were regularly topped up/ replaced). Arrived at night time but waking up to fully take in our surroundings and sea view in the sunshine was amazing (which by the way, was a free upgrade from a garden room). The cleaning staff were brilliant, always friendly and replaced any towels when left on the floor. Facilities: Again, spotlessly clean walkways and communal areas. Contemporary reception/ lobby area with many comfy seating areas. The pool area was gorgeous, fresh towel station for whenever yours got too soggy. Super comfortable sun beds with thick double beds over the edge of the pool. Staff regularly walk around to ask if you’d like a drink or food. Chilled house music in the background. If you bought spirits, you’d get complimentary nuts and crisps too. Breakfast: 5* is an understatement. I’ve previously stayed in 5* Riu hotels and Kyma knocks them out the park. As it’s much smaller than massive Riu hotels, the attention to detail and service is amazing. The options were amazing including vegetarian and vegan options. The yoghurt and granola station was the best I’ve experienced out of about six 5* Greek hotels I’ve been to before. Fresh coffee and juice straight to your table as well as Prosecco daily!!! We thought it might have been for special guests or someone with a birthday, nope. All guests. Every morning! We would take our glass of Prosecco after breakfast to the shaded lounge area with sofas by the pool to relax. Other: All staff were so helpful and friendly. I had a wonderful back massage one afternoon and we shared a couple’s experience of the spa dipping in all 5 pools with different temperatures and oils. They even took us to the spa in a golf buggy to save us walking uphill. Worth every penny and will 100% return in future!

The shuttle trips and mini bar items are charged at the end of your stay and they will only take euro cash. They do not put incidentals on a credit card! Not very convenient. The front desk was not friendly or welcoming at all. They also charge you for every drink of water you take. I ordered a margarita pizza at the restaurant and got a cheese pizza. Disappointed to say the least. Breakfast was marginal and could have been better. The only person at the hotel who was friendly was the cute waitress, “Maria” and the cute man that insisted on helping us with every piece of luggage. The rooms are dated and small. The bathroom situation needs and update and beds are marginal. I would not stay there again!

We loved our stay in this hotel! The staff were amazing. Special mention to Joseph the driver, alway happy, informative, a real asset to the hotel. Claudia In concierge was also superb, thank you. Pool staff very attentive as were restaurant staff. Hotel amenities were great although I would not call our bedroom 5 star, bathroom rather tired and in need of upgrade. Pool restaurant was good as was the main dining room, although I felt it was rather overpriced for what you got. One bug bear was if you ask for a single glass of red wine in the restaurant it arrives COLD! That’s a complete no no. Please do something about that. I know it’s minor but nothing worse than cold red wine! Thank you for our relaxing break. We loved it at St John. All in all a lovely hotel and I would not hesitate to come back.
