Review 9：This hotel was a great find! It looked good on the website and it was even better in the flesh. It is family run and their staff are excellent in their approach to guests - welcoming smiles and genuine hospitality. Great bathroom with walk in shower and a shower head as big as a dinner plate with lashings of hot water - a real treat! Lovely balcony with sea view and great for enjoying the sunset with a glass of wine. Excellent variety at breakfast with a choice of indoor or outdoor dining. Lovely decor in the public areas, soothing ambience ideal for reading, wifi or a drink with friends. Would highly recommend this hotel

Review 22：Not a bad experience as such. But breakfast options were limited, what there was, was tasty however.

Review 23：Staff at the hotel were very friendly and always happy to help. The pool area was stunning, nice and quiet and the pool was very clean. Our room was modern and clean and the bathroom with the shower was fantastic.

Review 29：Nothing

Review 30：Staff were amazing. Nothing too much trouble. Breakfast was good too. Arranged car hire and taxis when ferry was late too. Best beach on island. Will be returning next year with our parents.

Review 31：We didn't like the fact that we had chosen to stay only three nights.

Review 32：This is a truely great place to stay. The staff went above and beyond to ensure we had a comfortable and enjoyable stay. There is a beautiful beach just across the road and a range of fabulious restaurants in close vicinity to choose from.

Review 33：Wifi is awful- but then again you are in a more remote part of the island.

Review 34：Fantastic staff who go out of their way to assist. Lovely comfortable rooms - love the disco lights in the shower head! The pool area is also great for the kids and a welcome shelter from the wind (the beach is quite windy).

Review 35：We loved how close we were to the beach and local tavernas. The staff we all incredibly helpful and friendly. The breakfast was delicious and filling. Our room was clean and had an amazing view of the beach.

Review 36：Nothing.

Review 37：As usual, the staff is very friendly and helpful. Hotel itself is clean, modern and quite luxurious. We don't really understand why this hotel only has two stars, should be four. Comes highly recommended.

Review 38：a little remote from city, once you've tried the 2-3 restaurants around the corner you have basically seen it all. Wifi not always stable, very poor signal by pool but strong signal in rooms. Slow

Review 39：Very clean, super value for money for a 2 star hotel, rooms are in very good condition in the aisle we were in (314 &321), nice swimming pool, beach at 50m, small food market at 10m, couple of restaurants within 20-100m

Review 40：No downsides

Review 41：Free transport from the ferry port was well appreciated. Our room was superb and in particular the bathroom was to an exceptional standard. Lovely breakfast choice and location and beautiful swimming pool.

Review 42：The day we had to leave. We had to go home.

Review 43：All the superb staff are a credit to the hotel. Caring ,helpful andnothing to much trouble what a blessing. The hotel spotlessly clean,food was lovely. This hotel was outstanding in every way from the timewe arrived to the day we left. A great experieance.

Review 44：The wonderful owners who were so helpful and sympathetic when our luggage was lost for 3 days. Even drove to the port to pick it up from the ferry. Nothing was too much trouble. The amazing breakfast each morning.

Review 45：We always like to stay in a family run and owned business,,,,,everyone was over and above friendly and helped us in any way,,,beach across the road and great tavernas around the corner

Review 46：Not a complaint but word of warning Village has no atm so make sure you have enough money. But we only wish we had booked for longer

Review 47：Clean, beautiful pool, near blue flag beach friendly staff and fantastic breakfast. Free shuttle from port is great and would go again

Review 48：None

Review 49：Sophisticated and elegant, the Benois would have to be THE best hotel in which I've stayed in Greece! Bathroom amenities, lovely balconies and the breakfast is sensational! All the staff have been more than helpful, friendly and knowledgable!

Review 50：Selection of only a few eateries that were open during the evening. Limited bus service into town.

Review 51：Loved the Hotel. Quick walk to the beach & a quite location. The staff were fantastic and we really enjoyed our time here. We would love to return one day.

Review 52：The doors of the rooms are do not enough block noise when people pass by in the corridor it can be a bit noisy. The Neighbors have a poor dog who keeps crying from time to time.

Review 53：Clean place, well maintained, friendly staff, ample parking space, excellent Wi-Fi connection everywhere, balanced and coherent decoration. The hotel does nto cook meals but a handful of good restaurants are just around the corner.

Review 54：The staff were only to happy to help and very friendly. The staff picked us up and returned us to the port, breakfast was great. The hotel is just across the road from the beach, has a shop next door and the best restaurant a few doors up the road. The rooms were beautiful and clean and the kids loved the 'disco shower'. We were here at the end of the season so it was quiet, which was bliss. What more could you need. We loved everything about this place.

Review 55：1) There were ants in my room once. I had left food out. No food, no ants. 2) slight sewer smell, don't think drains have gas traps. ?? 3) internet in room was weak. Internet just fine in reception area. These were very minor when compared to the Excellent facility and service provided by this Hotel.

Review 56：Will write this as I experienced them. Common area, reception, in-side dining area, pool, hallways, room, patio area, food!, outside dining area, access to beach, bus stop close and mini market right next door (not over priced either). By far, one of the finest hotels in its class. I rarely give an excellent. This place exceeded my expectations. And, I had already read many of the previous reviews.

Review 57：Galissas is a small resort that was definitely closing down at the end of the season...despite this we did find places to eat and a place for scooter hire. Ermoupoli is 7 kms away...

Review 58：The staff were, without exception, wonderfully friendly and helpful. The hotel looked great and the shower was the best we've had on our trip. The breakfast was fabulous, varied and plentiful. The WiFi signal was strong. We ate at two restaurants right by the hotel and both were great. We were told that the renovations were set to continue during the winter, so the hotel should be even better next year!

Review 59：A place to relax and enjoy your vacations. The staff is excellent and the cleanliness of the room at a really high level. The breakfast is of excellent quality and you never get bored if it. Nevertheless the landscape needs some more trees, especially around the pool. Other than that we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely revisit.

Review 60：Couldn't stay the extra night on Saturday we wanted to when we arrived.

Review 61：The staff were so accomodating from square one picking us at the port, their front desk and in particular an employee who was always smiling and cheerful, their delicious breakfasts, and the amenities of the room. The local tavernas were, in our estimation, also very service oriented compared to other Iles we visited.

Review 62：Breakfast could be better.

Review 63：A lovely hotel few steps from the beach; ours was a comfortable room with a nice new bathroom. Very kind staff, every little thing we asked for they were willing to help with. Nice pool and lovely bar area. There are few taverns around and a grocery right next to the hotel. I felt very, very nice there, easy, breazy and relaxed.

Review 64：A few more trees and flowers would add to the whole picture.

Review 65：A hotel built and operated with good taste. Clean, quiet, with good facilities, an excellent choice for those who want to relax and enjoy the sun and the sea.

Review 66：Great stay at Hotel Benois, value for money, staff were very helpful including pick up and drop off at the port, great room and pool, beach straight across the road, cafes near by.

Review 67：Nothing, although the resort could do with a few more facilities.

Review 68：Everything. From the moment they picked us up from the port to the moment we left the staff could not have been more friendly or helpful and the place was immaculately kept. Great location near the beach and some nice little restaurants.

Review 69：It was a great experience. The hotel was nice and great for families. The staff was friendly. The pool was awesome. Overall, I highly recommend Benois and Galisas.

Review 70：Nothing really to dislike, beds could have been a bit softer but that was about it

Review 71：The staff were very friendly and helpful. Rooms were clean and well kept, but not on the large size. Close to the beach, bus stop and local restaurants. Very family friendly, though were didn't have children. Would recommend the pool view room.

Review 72：We stayed 11 nights at Hotel Benois and had the most fantastic holiday. The quiet location near a beautiful beach is perfect for families with kids. The swimming pool is very nice with plenty of sun beds. The family room was big with a small gorgeous bathroom that had just been renovated with new tiles and modern design. The nearby restaurants have wonderful Greek dishes and there is also a market next door for groceries. The hotel staffs were so helpful and friendly, and they even drove us to the port when we left. Hotel Benois is highly recommended for a quiet holiday with the family!

Review 73：Swimming pool open until late is simply unique, especially when you return tired from the beach. Nice beach very close with full facilities. Scooter rental next door, which we recommend as the best way to visit the island. Excellent breakfast with home-made cakes. Clean and modern room with a large pleasant shower. Tavernas very close.

Review 74：Can't think of anything.

Review 75：From moment of arrival all the staff were welcoming,friendly,helpful and spoke english.Room modern,very clean and linen changed regularly.Great showers.Pool and area lovely plenty of towels provided.Great location near to beach and bus stop just outside.Would recommend hotel benois to anybody.

Review 76：We were satisfied with everything, the staff so friendly and extra helpful, everyday our room was especially well cleaned, and always clean towels and the breakfast of high quality as really our feeling was total for Hotel Benois.

Review 77：I got two single beds instead of one double because there was no availability. The difference is noticeable when you just pair two seperate beds and the comfort just goes away... The view from the balcony for the "side" rooms is a ... service road! Price is a little steep compared to the star rating and the other prices in the area.

Review 78：New renovated bathroom Gentle and helpful staff Excellent breakfast (for a 2 star hotel)

Review 79：Our small balcony faced the parking lot but that was partly hidden by greenery. A bit crowded during relatively short breakfast time.

Review 80：Friendly and helpful staff (all women), nice room decoration and bathroom, beautiful pool with nice comfortable chairs, good breakfast and lunch fare, great location two steps from sandy beach, bus stop right outside, next to a mini market and a good restaurant, Iliovasilema. 15min from Ermoupolis and Ano Syros (make sure you visit both) and close to several sandy beaches around this beautiful island, popular with Greek families and foreign tourists alike.

Review 81：Nothing, it was perfect.
