"We were welcomed to the beautiful, restored townhouse that is Hotel Ploes, by its owner, Lina and her little dog. Nothing was too much trouble, from the provision of information about Syros to phoning taxis for us. Her restaurant recommendations were excellent, as was her very worthwhile recommendation to visit the town's art gallery which was exhibiting some of the work of the famous Greek sculptor, Theodoros Papagiannis. Her authored novel, Konstantza, Tales of Vaporia - provided in our room at the beginning of our stay and gifted to us at the end - managed to blend a fictional story with the history of the island and, in particular, the area of Vaporia, along with the careful renovation of the building that has become Hotel Ploes. It added to the enjoyment of our stay (26-29 June 2026). Our room - sea facing with a large terrace and situated at the top of the hotel - was scrupulously clean, as was the hotel in general. The beautiful decor throughout reflected the building's sympathetic restoration. All staff were courteous and helpful and the breakfasts were generous and of good quality. Thank you very much for a wonderful stay! Mandy & Rob"
