We arrived late in the yacht harbour and wanted to leave the sailing boat after a nine-hour-day in Beaufort 9-10. All we wanted was a bed that would not be swinging in the waves!
We found this little beautiful place a little off the main road and were surprised by the good value for money ratio. 35 Euros for a single room. Good, it was already off-season. But for us it was home for the next three nights.
All clean, big rooms, with AC and TV.
The landlord assisted in finding us some good scooters to explore the island.
small beach is right in front of the hotel. However I recommend to go up to the Beach Club, which has a nicer Beach and also has sunshades and sunbeds to let.

Finikias has some nice restaurants and you can find good food every night and also for lunch.

However, the village is rather quiet, so you need transportation to get to other beaches and/or cities.

WIFI is for free in the lobby area.

I don't normally rave about hotels that I pick for their location. When I booked this room, it was simply because of the hotel's proximity to the Port of Finikas where we were picking up a yacht charter this week, what we got was much, much better than I could have hoped for.

We booked the rooms via e-mail with the owner, and received a prompt reply and subsequent confirmation. Very professional and courteous - something that if you've traveled much in Greece you will definitely appreciate.

Arrival was a bit rough as our airline had misplaced our luggage and AT&T didn't turn on the international calling feature on my phone as requested. The owner was very helpful in coordinating messages with the airlines and our travel insurance company to get the luggage in our hands two days later. I don't know what we would have done without his help!

The room was very clean and good sized, cleaned daily with fresh sheets and towels. Even though the room was booked because we could walk to the port, when I opened the windows and found a beach front and harbor view from the room for no extra charge, I was in heaven. Cocktails on the lanai helped take the edge off after the long trip.

The continental breakfast - oh my goodness. In most cases, I would not use the two words in the same sentence. Here, the breakfast is included in your room charge and is not to be missed. It's served on the rooftop deck with views of the harbor, beach and surrounding hill sides. WHAT they serve is remarkable. There is a wonderful little Greek bakery around the corner they walk to purchase the pastries and bread from each morning. Don't miss out on the traditional Greek Sesame bread with butter and the local organic unfiltered honey, or the yummy pound cake. Simply heaven. Eggs, meats and cheese upon request as well, fine Greek coffee or American coffee or tea, fresh Greek yogurt and fresh squeezed local orange juice. You won't find better on the island and I've had much worse at four and five star hotels in the US.

Simply put - this place rocks.

I would advise anyone seeking a Greek vacation to book this hotel. The island of Syros is a little known gem, and the Cyclades Hotel is the perfect base from which to explore the island.

In the middle of June my girlfriend and I travelled to a small, wonderful island in Greece, called Syros. We found this island by looking around on the internet, we then came across the homepage for the hotel in which we stayed in www.hotelcyclades.com.
I made the reservation online and the booking was promptly confirmed by the hotel owner Joe, who during our stay made sure that all our needs were catered for.
The hotel is located on the picturesque Finikas beach, which is only 20 minutes away by bus from the town of Hermoupolis.

We were pleasantly surprised at what we received for the price of the room. Every morning we woke up to the warmest hospitality which i believe they call "filoxenia" and a delicious continental style breakfast, which we had on the roof garden over looking the bay.

Anyone thinking about visiting Greece, i strongly recomend Syros, and even more so Hotel Cyclades.

The rooms are clean, good sized. and modern with spacious balconies I have been travelling around Greece for ten years and this is one of my favourite destinations by far with immaculate beaches and crystal clear water. The village is quiet but has plenty of restaurants and basic shopping facilties but no cash machine, so get what you need in the main town, Ermopolis..
