“Staff, especially Dennis, Excellent”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 December 2011

Stayed in the Hotel Orloff in Sept. 2011 and absolutely loved it. It was a quirky comfortable hotel for a quiet relaxing break. Staff went out of their way to make it a really pleasant time. Room was not full of mod cons but that was not what I was looking for. I really enjoyed my time there. Would not recommend for children though.

Thanks for a fantastic stay! The room was gorgeous (shower is very small so was the only thing I could say was a negative), the breakfast food incredibly fresh and delicious, fantastic honey, kind and friendly hosts, great location on an amazing island - highly recommended.

“pricy yet average”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 September 2011

I totally agree with the review of the "world traveller". A historic place, lovely owners, very clean, but...baths need serious renovation, furniture is desparately trying to give out an "antique" style but fails to do so and is rather cheap and worn out, empty mini bar, tiny rooms, towels and clothes drying on the corridors, breakfast costs 15 euros and is presented as high quality and organic( seriously? a greek salad for breakfast? "swett corner" with just one and pathetic cake?). would not pay this money for this room again.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review.
Our hotel has period furniture and antiques authenticated by antique experts and highly appreciated by people of the arts! Bathrooms are renovated or in the process of being renovated (see pictures in our site). We do not charge 15 euros for our breakfast and it does include awarded organic products, same as provided by reputed five star hotels, ie jams, marmelades, home made cookies, biscuits and ever changing cakes.
Apart from sweets we offer a range of typical local Greek products among which is Greek Salad, feta cheese, Kalamata olives as a Kalimera Breakfast with Greek tastes!
We could never imagine that offering a Greek Salad, on top of everything else, would be criticized.
It is a historic 18th century house and not a typical hotel and we do our best to offer our guests a unique experience in a warm atmosphere.

“Unique Hotel- would stay there again”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 June 2011
1
person found this review helpful

We stayed there for 5 days on our Honeymoon. This is a really unique place. It is an old monastery that has been converted into a hotel. The building is considered a historical site and it has an interesting history that is worth asking about when you check in. It is located in a quiet are of the quaint little port town and is an easy walk to a lot of things on the island.

The rooms are small- befitting an old monastery, but they were immaculately kept and comfortable. The bathroom was modernized and nice sized. This is one of the few hotels we stayed at in Greece with no issues with the shower. There is AC, though there is a warning not to set it very low. It did cool off overnight, but was warm when first getting back from a day around the island. The rooms have internet and it is included with the cost of the room.

Dennis, the manager, is wonderful. Always greeted us by name and with a smile. He was a very happy to accommodate any requests that you have or help you with recommendations on food or places on the island.

Again, this is an old building, so there are no balconies in the room, but they've created a darling little court yard area that is always open. We enjoyed a bottle of wine out there in the evening on more than one occasion. Breakfast is included and is served in this same courtyard. Breakfast was simple, but very tasty and was served until 11am so there was no rush to make it to it before they stopped serving.

There is no pool or parking (there are no motorized vehicles allowed in Hyrda). And no restaraunt or bar on the site, however there are many restaraunts/bars all around the hotel.

Room Tip: Ask for a room with a view of the Courtyard.
