Reviews for Miramare Hotel
Review 1：Rooms area very basic. Did not like the layout of the bathroom everything gets wet. No slipper or robes provided. Hand held shower head. Very dark inside the bathroom. Rooms are very basic but spacious. Staff are strange they are a family but seem really sad and lacking of conversation/smile. Be more happy towards guests. Hotel is very very quite especially towards end of season need to have some type of music playing in the reception/ pool side area. Steep 80 degree walk to the hotel is pretty intense would not recommend this hotel for people that are elderly people or anyone who doesn't want to be breathless up to there rooms. Hotel need to make that pathway into long steps. So the walk up is gradual. Bar outside was empty no drinks on shelf, nobody there to serve you. Almost felt deserted. Maybe because it was coming to the end of season, but that is still no excuse. Note there is only 1 taxi driver on the whole island so very small.
Review 2：This hotel has one of the best views of Hora the main town and the church/ sea. Views are breath taking from your balcony. Good advice regards weather and beaches to visit. Peaceful and romantic place. Hora town is just 5mins walk away, loads of places to eat and drinks with few bars around to.
Review 3：The staff was a little grumpy all the time. They also didn't seem to know what clean towels and sheets are. Not only they didn't change are towels and sheets frequently, but also when they did, the "clean" towels and sheets weren't clean at all. The pillows weren't changed at all during our 5 night stay.
Review 4：The view is great and the hotel is really quiet.
Review 5：Air-con was temperamental, which required a quick flick of the fuse box to get started.
Review 6：Great location, just over a 5 minutes walk into the centre of Chora. Staff were very accommodating and helpful whilst giving you your own space. Fantastic view. Would highly recommend if you don't mind a slight walk up a hill!
Review 7：The wi-fi connection was absolutely poor, the photos from the site didn't match the actual size of the rooms and the pool, it wasn't value for money.
Review 8：The view from the hotel was fantastic, the rooms were very clean, the staff was friendly and helpful.
Review 9：It was windy and the door although locked at night it was making cricking and banging noices. All else perfect
Review 10：Location is superb with a nice view. The staff is very helpful and drive you to and from the port.
Review 11：There was no wifi at all in our room.
Review 12：Room was very clean and spacious. Staff very friendly and helpful. Very nice sea view. There is a nice pool which you can enjoy the view from there!
Review 13：Wifi not working properly, couldn't connect from the room, kept saying "incorrect password" (staff could not resolve the problem). Very steep walk to the hotel. A bit far from the town centre. Shower had no curtain, bathroom kept getting flooded. Fridge had no supply of drinks. Overpriced for these inconveniences.
Review 14：Very cool pool, with stunning view over the Chora and the sea. Room was comfortable and clean.
Review 15：If you didn't have a car the road was uphill so it was a bit tiring to walk back
Review 16：The view and the pool was excellent. The stuff was also very friendly
Review 17：Three things: small shower, bad wifi signal, steep hill (2') to access the hotel
Review 18：Situated in a great spot that offers stunning views to Chora. The rooms are very clean and the staff really friendly.
Review 19：There is, of course, a steep hill to climb...
Review 20：The best location with great views of Chora, lovely pool, super balcony...couldn't really do better in our opinion. Free transport from the harbour as well. Eleonora's falcons fly in the hills around the hotel. Great walking area.
Review 21：bathroom is really small and difficult to have a shower while wifi was so weak in room, that was not possible to use it.
Review 22：great location, very polite stuff, comfortable and clean room
Review 23：Very steep hill up to hotel. Reception opened at 0800 which we thought was quite late as we wanted a coffee when we awoke and couldn't get it.
Review 24：Lovely vista and small pool. Quiet. Nice chairs and balconies.
Review 25：The property looks beautiful, and the rooms are very nicely decorated. The hotel is situated on a hill, which is a bit of a pain the first couple of times you walk up, but you'll get used to it. After the hill it's only a few minutes walk to the (very lovely) Chora. The view from the pool is amazing, and the sun beds are great for an afternoon of relaxing. We were picked up from the port and brought to the port for no extra charge, which we thought was a very good service!
Review 26：The staff (the woman in the reception)could be more warm and welcoming, missed parasolls around the pool. The pictures are a bit misleding since its a bit outside Chora with a very steep hill Very expensive and small breakfast
Review 27：The room was spacious and the view very beautiful
Review 28：The uphill road to the hotel.
Review 29：Great place to stay, spacious rooms, fresh and clean. Probably the best views of Chora. All the rooms have balconies with view over the Aegean Sea! It's a family run facility and all of them have been so helpful, especially Antonis.
Review 30：Nothing
Review 31：The view vas incredible from our balcony(Deep blue indeed!).The owner of the hotel was very friendly,he picked us upp from the port of karavostasi and made sure that we would have a wonderfull time.Really good fredo capuccino as well!
Review 32：Nothing at all. This is the first time I have written this !
Review 33：Free pick up and return to the port was really helpful. The hotel is modern, stylish and beautifully located close to the lovely little town and with a fabulous view. I can't understand other reviewers comments about the hill. I'm in my 60s and didn't have any problem at all. If you have mobility problems, maybe you would struggle in the Islands anyway. The room was lovely, furnished well and with good facilities. The pool was fabulous with its lovely setting. Breakfast was fine for 10 € The staff were helpful and friendly. We wouldn't hesitate to return - it's idyllic.
Review 34：The hotel offered amazing views of Chora and the picturesque church Panagia. The rooms, pool and grounds of the hotel as well as the service was impeccable. If you like serenity this is the place. It is a short walk to Chora ....and you are very close to the bus stop. We are Definately returning next year!
Review 35：Not that I didn't like but would do with more breakfast options - Greek traditional. + curtain of different colour (i am a designer so picky :)
Review 36：The location couldn't be better, hotel is finished to a high standard & what I would see if I think of Greece hotel. Peacefully quiet, no screaming kids, considerate guests, hotel swimming pool - so you don't have to leave if you don't want to. I am absolutely dying to come back again. Thank you again for a wonderful experience!
Review 37：Is a bit of a steep walk uphill to get to the hotel, but isn't really that bad, and view is worth it. Also the shower is one of the hand-held ones, but again - not that bad.
Review 38：The view from the rooms is amazing. Waking up to see the sea, and chilling on our balcony was amazing. Spacious rooms, very clean, good AC, big balcony, just a short walk to Chora with all the bars, restaurants etc. Would recommend!
Review 39：Basic, sub-par breakfast offering. No services as such to speak of in this hotel. Patchy wifi in the room - had to stand in the balcony. Steep walk up from the main road - the great views didn't come without a price.
Review 40：Nice, large rooms at the upper level. Great sense of privacy. Stunning views. Comfortable beds.
Review 41：the unbelievable steep walk to the hotel It is run by a family who are the owners and are not trained to be hospitable and overall didn't make much of an efford. They never really made you feel welcomed. On one occasion they gave us the wrong bus timetable for going to the port and on return we told them that. The boy's response was ..."I know that some of the times on the list are wrong...but that is the list they sent us from the Agency...." how pathetic and unprofessional...!!! really annoying... We had to ask for toiletries every time i.e. shampoo as they did not automatically refilled them daily They changed the linen every 2 days rather than daily!! It is a nice hotel as it is brand NEW and clean but it gives the impression that it will quickly go down the hill
Review 42：The view from the hotel is simply amazing. The arcitecture of the hotel
Review 43：-The 150 m, 30-40 deg inclination hill is unacceptable. If you do nothave a scooter >50 cc or a car do not go. If you forget sth you donot have the courage to go up again. -Not friendly staff -dirty pool -one only shampoo and shower gel for two nights stay is not enough. Notreplaced. -Bathroom not suited for a 100+ € per night room -terriblevalue for money -no wifi signal due to authentication error and nowillingness from the staff to help -no mobile network reception -thepool has only 3 umbrellas, taken already before waking up. So if you donot want to end up fried from the sun, staying there above an hour isnot option -there are other cheaper or price comparable hotels infolegandros with better facilities. Choose any other of them
Review 44：Nice view
Review 45：The staff were absolutely lovely and the pool beautiful. The location was about 15mins into Fira on a quad bike, but you would definitely need a car or bike of you stay here.
Review 46：Hotel is built on a steep hill and walk is a bit difficult, but you have the greatest view. Shower was too small, after taking a shower water is everywhere in the bathroom
Review 47：Very kind staff. Especially Giannis at the reception, was very helpful. View is amazing. Very quiet place to relax and just 10 minutes walk from the center (Chora).
Review 48：Had only two nights....:)
Review 49：Location is amazing, great view, very quiet. Rooms are brand new and clean. Just 5min walking from Chora village. For this price you cant get any better.
Review 50：The shower had no curtains and water would go all over the bathroom floor. Either a mop should be given for each room or a glass or curtain should be placed.
Review 51：Very nice, comfortable rooms, good beds and nice environment. beautiful view, nice swimming pool. Clean and also helpful stuff. Could be a bit cheaper
Review 52：Bathroom very basic No shower at pool Breakfast maybe too pricy for what it is - better to have in village
Review 53：Great location Great views Quiet Spaciouse room Helpfull staff Pick up and drop off from port very helpull Very good value for money (excl breakfast) Folegandros in general is very much "boutique" without any "trash" tourism
Review 54：Couldn't fault the hotel at all, however the hospitality wasn't the best. We felt that the staff are not hospitality trained. No eye contact or good morning from them.
Review 55：Due to the location of the hotel the views are fantastic. Rooms are extremely comfortable, air con plenty of hot water.
Review 56：Not enough service (maps) but when you ask questions, the staff is there to help you. Need to take into consideration that Folegandros is a small island so there is not so much things to do (City, restauranst, two principal beaches)
Review 57：Location View is awesome Room is really clean & brand new Each room has a balcony Rent a quad and visit the island and secluded beaches Folegandros = perfect to enjoy some time off and relax!
Review 58：nothing
Review 59：Wonderful hotel. The view is just amazing! For me it's one the best hotels of the island. The only negative point I found is that the Wifi is a little bit slow, But Who cares!!!! With such beautifull view from your terrace you don't need anything else. Some people said that the hill is very big to go from the chora to the hotel. It's true. However, you can rent a scooter for 15e, quad for 25e or a car. You just need to ask at the reception and they organize everything. The rental company come and pick you up directly form the hotel. At the end, you don't need to climb the hill at all :) The transfer from the port to the hotel is organized by the hotel for free.
Review 60：I simply loved this hotel. The staff is very helpful, especially thehotel owners son. The poolarea is great, and so are the rooms,especially the ones on the first floor. They come with a magnificentview over the sea and chora. There are also cheaper rooms, with lessview but with the same quality. The village is just a 3 minute walk fromthe hotel, where you can find beautiful little streets and small, cosyrestaurants. If you're going to folegandros this is most certainlythe place to be. I will definitely revisit.
Review 61：Beautiful and idyllic! This hotel is clean, quiet, modern and the view is breathtaking. Short walk to town, our favorite hotel on our visit to the Cyclades!
Review 62：Location, brilliant view of Chora. Super pool. Plenty of sun beds. Good coffee!
Review 63：Stunning location (best views on island), beautifully designed hotel, lovely staff.
Review 64：The hotel is in a perfect location. Quiet, clean, away from noise. With the excellent view, you can totally relax.
Review 65：lack of shade at the pool
Review 66：view
Review 67：Rather steep road up to the hotel, but not a big deal.
Review 68：Splendid view. Transport from harbor included. Nice rooms and facilities.
Review 69：Wi-Fi connection was not good
Review 70：Excellent location, great views of Folegandros' Chora. Friendly and helpful staff.
Review 71：Great view. Very helpfull and kind staff. Amazing location and service!!!
Review 72：Man måste kunna gå uppför en rejält brant backe för att komma upp till hotellet.
Review 73：The view is fantastic! Best location in Folegandros
Review 74：We can't order the breakfast service in room (terrace)
Review 75：Private terrace with fantastic view!
Review 76：Bed is a bit too soft

Review 86：No breakfsast included and there were no music playing in the pool.Silence everywhere.It was a little depresing
Review 87：Incredible view....
Review 88：The access is up a very steep hill. A kettle would be appreciated.
Review 89：Beautiful view, modern, swimming pool, quiet.
Review 90：Everything about this hotel was perfect. The staff is great, especially the owners son, Giannis, is very helpful. The poolarea is great, and so are the hotelrooms. I can recommend the suits on the 1st level, they have fantastic sea views. If you want a bit cheaper, you can book on the lower level as well. They don't have the same view, but the quality is just as good. There is just a 3 minute walk into the nice town chora, where you will find restaurants, shops and beautiful little allies. I will definitly revisit this place and recommend it to all my friends. If you're thinking about visiting folegandros, this is THE place to be.
Review 91：The price of the simple breakfast was high, 10 euros. The staff wasn't very friendly. A smile would also be nice. The walk to the hotel up to the hill is steep. If you are not in normal fit or do have problems with moving this can be too hard.
Review 92：Gorgeous view to the sea and the Chora village. The superior room was spacious, stylish and clean. The pick up service to and from the port worked fine.
Review 93：Neither W-Lan (WiFi) nor the creditcard-device worked
Review 94：friendly and kind owner very beautiful rooms... you cannot expect such nice rooms for so little money elsewhere
Review 95：Staff not very friendly, could do with some customer service. Have an excellent opportunity to make hotel successful if they develop more of a customer focus
Review 96：Design of room, nice pool area, stunning views. Clean and well maintained.
Review 97：You need to be prepared to do a little bit of walking (or rent a bike/quad) to get to the village, or take a bus / short drive to the beaches and port - but that's really not a big deal, and you get the bonus of a better view and less disturbances.
Review 98：A beautiful location just outside the village of Chora, with great view but close enough to the restaurants and cafes in the village. Very helpful and friendly staff. Very quiet atmosphere, perfect for a relaxing vacation. Definitely one of the best vacations we've had.
Review 99：Very steep hill to climb on the way back to the hotel. Very few services as to bar availability. The personnel could be a bit more informative on the island and what has to offer.
Review 100：The view is amazing and the hotel is very quiet. Minimal design integrated into the island.
Review 101：There is a massive hill that you need to climb to get to the hotel. This is a real problem if you don't get a car... It is not really a hotel as a hotel has numerous staff and services; much more like rented rooms.
Review 102：The high-rising location was excellent as you had an amazing view of the entire island. The room was very big for the price.
Review 103：The staff were not visible about the hotel, and the few occasions we asked for information or assistance it seemed it was a chore to them to assist.
Review 104：The view from the rooms.
Review 105：Family run hotel with a great view of Chora and the Aegean sea. Beautifully decorated and spacious rooms. Excellent service. The manager, Giannis, was very helpful and gave us useful advice on how to make our stay in Folegandros perfect!
Review 106：Over-priced. No breakfast included in plan and if you want to add the simple breakfast it is expensive. Limited availability of staff.
Review 107：Beautiful location and nicely designed hotel (minimalist design).
Review 108：Way back to hotel very steep. Wireless prestty weak and not accessible from all over the hotel.
Review 109：very nice view from the simming pool. Breakfast good and plentful. Location good if you hire a scooter. Beds very comfortable. Very quiet area.
Review 110：It would be nice to have wi-fi access in the rooms, and the central wi-fi was slow at peak times. Although the walking distance from chora is perfect, there is a very steep hill to climb, and could be difficult for some without a car/scooter.
Review 111：The view was simply amazing! Staff was wonderful and welcoming. Location was excellent. It was outside of the chora, so it was quiet, but the chora was an easy walking distance away.
Review 112：Difficult accustics in the breakfastroom.
Review 113：Fantastic view of the town Chora and beautiful the Mediteranian. The pools where nice both for children and adults. Bedrooms beautiful.
Review 114：Peaceful and beautiful, our stay at the Miramare was so relaxing, we didn't want to leave. Overlooking the beutiful Chora as it perches on cliffs above the sea, we couldn't help it feel incredibly rested and calm, especially after the bustle of Santorini. The staff were helpful and blended into the scenery, emerging when needed, but generally leaving us to enjoy the calm. A lovely pool is the best way to relax are exploring this true gem of an island.
Review 115：Folegandros is a very special island so this hotel is placed in a perfect position to enjoy the view. Its a family business and that makes you feel comfortable. The rooms are big enough and the bed mattress very good quality, to enjoy sleep. You can relax at the hotel all day long and enjoy the sunset. Every body was very friendly and helpful. I am looking forward to visit them again!!
Review 116：Since the hotel is located on a mountainside it is quite cumbersome to walk home in the evenings after a nice dinner in Chora.
Review 117：Fantastic Sea view and a very nice pool area. Helpful staff that even provided transfer to the port at 5am - which was greatly appreciated.
