Wonderful spot, just a short walk from the harbor
The room was clean and charming, with lots of white and blue decorations. Our favorite part was the nice outdoor patio with chairs to sit on, overlooking Hydra Town and the harbor. It is a short distance from the harbor, and very easy to walk to local shops. But it was also quiet and comfortable. Our only complaint was that the bed was a bit too soft for 2 people so sleep on and it made our backs hurt. However, it was a great value, and we would definitely stay again if we could!

Close to everything and quiet location.
Our room was nice and clean - very basic Greek accommodation. The bed was actually quite comfortable - most beds in Greece I encountered were firm and I prefer a softer bed. We had a large patio and not a balcony looking out onto the street. The location was great - it is close to everything, but away from the bar noise. Wish I stayed in Hydra longer - we only where here for less than 24 hours - would definitely stay here for at least 3 days next time!

Great place, difficult to find
Everything was great, except we had a little trouble locating the hotel. The addressees are not helpful and the signage was not great. We walked right by the hotel and did not see it. Once checked in, we loved it.

Very friendly and convenient place to stay.
Our stay was wonderful. The people at Botsis were very friendly and helpful. The room is pretty small so with our four suitcases room was limited. If you are on one of the upper levels hire one of the many carts at the harbor to take your luggage to the Botsis and carry them up the stairs for you. If you are young that might not be a problem to do yourself. Botsis is only one block from the spectator harbor of Hydra where there are many many great restaurants and shops. So relaxing.

Escape from volunteering to being a tourist
I spent three months volunteering with our wave of humanity refugees in port Pireaus and decided to Escape to Hydra. Botsis was a great hotel, great price, and great view from balcony of port and sea, and great staff and pup!

A good choice
Hotel is good value and conveniently located close to harbour...it is therefore close to the restaurants and the bars. Owner was nice and gave a warm welcome and showed me a map of the area...everything is within walking distance. Rooms are spotless, with fridge and good bathroom facilities. Towels are provided for the beach. Guesthouse was slightly noisier than I would have expected and were a lot of people coming and going without being checked by reception (there is another front door which was always unlocked and bypasses the front reception desk) . I would not have been comfortable leaving valuables in my room and there is no safe. Hot water was a bit hit and miss.

Great Hotel
We had a great stay in this hotel. It lies just back from the port and we had a room with a small balcony to the front so we were able to watch the world go by. Upstairs there was a small kitchen so we cold make a salad or we could have cooked if we wanted to. Very friendly and english spoken. We would recommend this Hotel no problem

Everything You Need For A Relaxing Stay on Hydra
Everything about the room and the location of the hotel was perfect. On top of which the warmth and friendliness of the hosts made for a very relaxing stay, especially for a lone traveller. Being there and ready to help in any way but also unobtrusive is a tricky one to get right and Antonis and his wife have perfected their hospitality, providing 24 hour access plus a hotline phone in Reception to call them at any time. Providing everything you could need, beach towels, internet in room (met several people staying in upmarket hotels who didn't get wifi in their rooms even though it had been advertised), tea and coffee, hairdryer, use of a kitchen, TV, private balcony.. The location was important too because Hydra is one big hill and walking up to the heights whilst offering spectacular views means a more calculated planning is needed for the day whereas with the Botsis you're just off the harbour where all the action is yet the street is peaceful. Five stars and wouldn't hesitate to stay again. THANK YOU!

Nicw guest house close to the port
We stayed here 2 nights. Very easy to find from the port and a good location if you'd like to wander around Idra Town and maybe take a few hikes to the beach or longer ones for pleasure. We used the kitchen facilities to cook out breakfast both mornings. The room and bathroom were very clean, comfortable, and appeared to be updated. The balcony on our second floor room overlooked the street which was fun for people watching and sometimes random street music or singing. We slept soundly both nights- good amount of noise and light blocking from the windows and curtain. We made good use of the mini fridge and AC unit in our room. The owner and his wife were friendly and nice to talk to. They let us keep our bag in the lobby which was secure but we used a luggage lock just in case. They also let us come back to shower and cleanup after our checkout since we left on an evening ferry. Internet connection was great with no problems. Computers in lobby for guests if needed.

Nice guest house, handy location.
Antonis the owner was exceptionally helpful. We had problems with getting return ferry tickets but Antonis was able to arrange and pay for them himself which meant that our travel plans were not disrupted. Having communal kitchen facilities And towels for the beach supplied were two added and unexpected bonus's.

really excellent value
The guest house is up a charming street just off the main habour area. We had a room with a balcony and could see the comings and goings of the larger boats. The room was very clean and luckily had efficient air con that kept us lovely and cool. Also a big TV set and an ensuite that was small but adequate. Also had wifi in the rooms and computers for guests to use in the lobby. the kitchen was fairly well equipped - kettle, toaster microwave, cooker etc but there was not a lot of crockery. The room was cleaned and tidied daily and the staff were charming. Highly recommended!

Super betjening og rigtig hyggeligt ophold. Ligger lige "midt" i byen kun lidt væk fra havnen, så her kan man følge med i hverdags-livet på Hydra. Kan anbefales til alle som kommer til øen for at have en afslappet ferie på egen hånd.

Botsis et sjarmerende gjestehus på Hydra
Bostsis Guesthouse er et sjarmerende lite hotell ca. 100 m fra havnen på Hydra. Vi fikk to doble rom i 2.etg. med terrasse på baksiden.Her spiste vi frokost og solte oss. Rommene hadde nytt bad med dusj.Gode senger. Siden vi var på Hydra første uken i april, var ikke temperaturene så høye om kveldene. Rommene var litt kalde på kveldstid, spesielt golvene som var fliselagt (og uten varmekabler). Men det var air condition på rommene, og vi fikk fort varmen opp da vi slo den på. Alt i alt et bra hotell i et stille område.

Utrolig service
Vi tilbragte en uke på Hydra, og bodde hele oppholdet ved Botsis Guesthouse. Med lavbudsjettspriser forventet vi oss et helt "ok" overnattingssted, men vi fant fort ut at dette var mye valuta for pengene. Rommet holdt en upåklagelig standard, men det som toppet det hele var servicen fra personalet. Jeg har knapt før vært steder hvor jeg har følt meg så hjemme, og personalet hjalp til med alt fra klesvask til å fikse meg strykejern og strykebrett klokken 20:00 på kvelden.

Herlig personlig
Vi bodde her tre netter, og koste oss veldig. Mannen som eier hotellet passet godt på at vi hadde det så bra som overhode mulig, og lot oss bruke hotellets PC-er selv noen dager etter at vi hadde sjekket ut. Personlig og god service, gode senger, nydelig beliggenhet, og en rekke gode restauranter i nabolokalene.

Great attic room for families
Hotel was just great. Stayed in the attic "Penthouse" that has a wonderful small balcony terrace on the roof of the building viewing the harbour. Also bathroom was nice. Room itself does not have a stove, but there is a kitchen one floor down. Room has coffee maker, water boiler, fridge, sink and utensils. I definitely recommend this room for families that do not need separate bedrooms for kids. ;) Price wasn't bad either. If I would go to Hydra again, I would definitely choose this one again.

Stayed at Botsis for 2 weeks and was very impressed. Very well located, good and clean room and excellent service. Excellent value for money. Bathroom could perhaps need a renovation, however it work absolutely fine. Room was freshly painted in pleasant colours. I thoroughly recommend Botsis!

Les avantages du port, sans y être!
Ce petit hôtel charmant est très bien situé car juste derrière le port, ce qui permet de ne pas trop en subir tous les bruits attenants (de nombreux bateaux à moteurs sans arrêt), et de pouvoir en profiter le soir lorsqu'il redevient calme. Excellent accueil, très propre et fonctionnel.
