We stayed at the Hermes for the first time this year and we will definitely be back, we found the apartments clean and well furnished although the air con played up one day, however it was fixed in no time at all and with no drama's. I'd like to answer a couple of criticisms as well of the Hermes, first of all if people had bothered to checked the info board next to the bar they would seen the times the reception was open and secondly Mark and Denise did a really good job considering the hour they were expected to be at work, so dont let people put you off the hermes, its a nice set of appartments in a nice spot on the island, we'll be back.

this was our 1st time in skiathos ,on our honeymoon and what a fantastic place the hermes is a fantastic complex we had room 401 with a veiw to die for very clean no complaints at all , all the staff work very hard ,espesially mark aka the c..t with the beard hahaha made our holiday and denise what a laugh, the bus servise is v good always on time ,the best place for me was skiathos town absolutley amazing spotlessly clean ,lots of good places to eat too many to mention places just to sit and take it all in ,we met some class people and have memories forever thank you all specilly denise and mark we will come and c use next year bye for now.

The Hermes Appartments are the best we've stayed in for Greece. The water temperature was erratic but overall the appartments were spotless. The island was fabulous too. Plenty of great beaches and a very good bus service to get to them. The food at Hermes was fabulous and reasonably priced but the drinks were expensive. We found the people we met at Hermes were good company and like minded to ourselves. The only downside was the steep slope to get to the appartments from the main road. Definitely unsuitable for people with walking difficulties. Will definitely go back.

We have just arrived home from the Hermes Appartments having had a lovely 2 weeks in Skiathos. As usual for Greece the rooms were only basic but better than a lot we've stayed in over the years. A higher wattage bulb in the toilet might have helped and the temperature of the water was very erratic. Nevertheless they cleaned every day bar Sunday by very cheerful cleaners. We ate in the restaurant afew times and the food was good and not over priced (unlike the beer, 3.50 a bottle!). Service was ok and Denise always seemed to make it a cheerful experience. Unlike Mark, we found him rather cynical and cantankerous - I know it was the end of a long season but I don't see that as an excuse to be generally offhand.
There is no shortage of other places to eat locally - our favourite was Platanias in Kolios. The food was excellent, though slightly more expensive, but the service was first class. You don't have to go far to find a lovely beach we thought Vromolimnos was the best locally and Koukounaries and Troulos are only a few minutes bus ride away - the bus service is excellent by the way. skiathos Town is only a few minutes by bus and is very pretty, however you seem to be constantly dodging motorcycles weaving their way through the narrow streets.
All in all we had agood time at the Hermes, Thanks Denise, especially for the music, we might go back one day.
