Iliovasilema has a convenient location in Chora and there are wonderful views from their terrace and some of the west facing rooms (we had one of these). E-mail communication was easy and prompt and we were pleased to be met at the port and driven up the steep hill to the hotel. Front desk service was friendly. Just a few minutes walk from the hotel is the main street in Chora where there are restaurants, cafes and two small supermarkets. Our first floor room was spotlessly clean, but very dated. The small tiled bathroom had a hand held shower and no shower curtain so taking a shower wets the entire bathroom. We're no stranger to this kind of bathroom, but in the last decade standards everywhere are increasing and these old style facilities are disappearing (thank goodness). The view from our small balcony was stunning, but not so lovely is the total lack of privacy, as there is no barrier whatsoever between the balconies on either side of ours. Some privacy barriers needed. We had been advised in advance that there was no breakfast provided on site, which was fine as there are cafes nearby. Good aircon. This is a good budget choice if you want to be in Chora and don't mind simple accommodation. We stayed here 2 nights. Other reviews mention a shuttle to the beaches, but this was not offered during our stay in the 3rd week...
Read moreEudokia speaks little but is very attentive to every detail and excellently manages this beautiful hotel. It is strategically located at the top of the Chora di Schinoussa, with magnificent sea views both to the west and east of the island, charming at sunset, from which the hotel takes its name. Large rooms, furnished in a sober but functional way, clean and with frequent change of linen. Efficient air conditioners, hairdryer, simple but comfortable beds, pleasant balcony in all rooms. One of them also has a magnificent terrace with a 360 degree view. Very rich, plentiful and varied breakfast, with local specialties, served on a terrace overlooking the sea. Extremely courteous and efficient staff, always willing to help with sympathy. Strict attention to anti-COVID rules of conduct and hygiene in general. Very reasonable prices even in high season. Really a great choice for a holiday...
Read moreThe worst customer service I have ever experienced!!! Last week I called to book a room and they asked me to email them with my request. They never replied to my email so I attempted to call quite a few times in the next days. There was no response, no further information, not even a reply from the owner to clarify what I should expect. Twice the brother of the owner replied and mentioned that they had seen my email and that the owner would reply next time and I should call again which I did but was ignored. Stay away from this place if you value communication and a good...
