"It's worth staying here just for the view. Happily there's more reasons than that though. We spent 3 nights at Lagou Raxi and we all loved it, including my teens. The views from the hotel are spectacular whether you are on your room balcony, eating a meal on the porch or relaxing at the pool. The hotel is like a little oasis. It's 15 minutes from the beach and 5 minutes walk to a great little town square with a several taverna's. But, perched up on the hill it's so much quieter, calmer and...
"I loved Hotel Katia. The staff were lovely and the area was amazing. The room was much bigger than expected given the price, we had a full veranda and spacious room. The only minor inconvenience was the shower was quite small and the bathroom would cover with water as a result. Thank you so much Hotel Katia we look forward to staying again. "
"We enjoyed our stay at the hotel. While the property is a bit outdated, it has a cozy charm. The room was a bit tight for a family of four, and the uphill location might be challenging for those with mobility issues—especially older guests. However, the beautiful view from the rooms and the warm, helpful service from the manager made our stay very pleasant."
"A pearl nested in a charming mountain village overlooking the sea. Very friendly staff, great and comfortable room, nice breakfast.... Only one regret, we didn't stay longer."
"Fantastic service by all of the staff at this amazing hotel. Hotel is close to the beach and has a great pool. Very easy to get to Skiathos town by bus. Hotel restaurant has delicious food and there are other restaurants walking distance from the hotel. Highly recommend and looking forward to our next stay here. "
"The building & rooms are a little dated. Some maintenance is definitely required. Our room was spacious, but had a badly scratched floor & missing panel on the vanity in the bathroom. The staff were wonderful & always helpful. A nice bonus to have a complimentary bus into town that you booked the night before. No lifts, but the staff helped with our cases so it wasn’t a problem."
"Perfect resort for families with babies. Everything is very close by within the resort, beach is great, big swimming pool and good food at the restaurant. I’d only improve the cleaning of the beach and more kitchen staff to improve lead time."
"We had a great stay with the family. The house is fully equipped and aesthetically it follows the traditional Pelion style. Hosts were very helpful and gave us useful tips. The closest beach is just couple of minuets of walking away. All commodities are nearby, with a supermarket a bread store and a butcher's store. Very nice stay."

"We chose Hotel Rene as it looked more our style, a bit more relaxed and a homely feel. Our instinct was right. What a wonderful hotel, small, charming, good amenities and wonderful owners and staff. They could not do more to help if they tried. Exactly what we wanted and needed.
We really enjoyed sitting on our balcony taking in the excellent view, chilling by the nicely sized pool (reasonsbly rare in Skiathos town). It is a short walk to the beach (5-10mins), and also very quick to town (10-15mins depending where you want to go). The bus stop is just at the bottom of the road to explore the island (very convenient), and right next to that is the Super Market for anything you might need. That being said the Hotel also has a reasonably priced store for any food, water or other drinks you might need.
I would definitely look at staying here again when visiting Skiathos. You may have noticed others saying the hotel is situated on top of a hill, the upside of this - great views and a very easy walk to town or the beach! The downside is of course coming back. I must say if you are of low-moderate fitness (like me) this should be manageable for most people. It is 2-3 minutes of a steep up hill then you're done. If you have mobility issues it may not be advisable, but taxis will take you from the town for 10€.
Please don't let this put you off, but you should be aware of it. It didn't worry us, and we did not regret it our choice!"
"My partner and I apent a wonderful 7-night stay at Hotel Paradise. This is a family-run hotel in which each member of staff can’t do enough to help and accommodate you. The hotel itself is well-laid out to ensure privacy in your rooms/on the balconies. The pool area is beautiful and peaceful. The hotel runs a free minibus service to and from Skiathos town meaning you can easily access the restaurants and shops in this busier area but also choose to stay within the calm environs of the hotel and surrounding gardens.
When we return to Skiathos, we wouldn’t think of staying anywhere else :)"
"Hotel was ok but a little dated for a 5 star. Staff were all good and helpful. They even got a pump to pump up a punctured scooter tyre. The sausages bacon eggs beans tomatoes mushrooms and potatoes were cold every morning no matter what time you went to breakfast. At £250 per night for B and B this is unexceptable."
"Very nice hotel!! Great standard, very clean, and especially the personell - all very friendly and with a personal touch. Great to have the pool, and the view over the bay/sea was very nice as well. The atmosphere is very calm. There are a few beaches nearby that we liked. And we also enjoyed taking the taxi-boat from the closest beach to town in the evening. Super hotel - many thanks for having us!!"
