Lovely stay. Recommended. Good value.

Lovely hotel and wonderful service. Room is basic but immaculate, pool area is inviting with nice view. Breakfast is worth getting. We enjoyed our time and the welcome of the family. The bus stops outside the door every 20 minutes but also walkable to the port and town.

Amazing Hosts

From the minuet we arrived the owners Was outstanding! Very welcoming, friendly and helpful. They greeted us with recommendations, a map an very good explanations for the buses to each area. I couldn’t thank them enough. Within the hour we was off to their recommendation of Pathos, an outstanding view and sunset, with an infinity pool, bar an restaurant! The rooms was very spacious, secure and clean! Fresh towels everyday, with the room cleaned also. The breakfast was your topical Continental breakfast, with a very good choice of fresh fruit ! And amazing Jams to go with the selections of breads. Try the peach or cherry jam! Pool area is very beautiful and large, with a nice bar and snack area, playing a good selection of easy music. Location was perfect, bus stop outside, less then ten minuets walk down to the port, with plenty’s of restaurants and shops around. And 15 or so minuets walk up to the Village, or just jump on the bus. A must visit restaurant at the port is ‘Thai me up’ I have never tasted food so fresh an absolutely full of flavour! We couldn’t get enough of it! Better food then iv ever eaten before ! An Iv been to Thailand it’s self! I would highly recommend this hotel to all people, families, friends couples. Great value for money! Thank you so much for a great stay!

A must stay

Where to start? The staff are amazing from the booking through to departure and couldn’t do enough for us as a large group. The pool and bar are beautiful and a great way to start and end you day. It’s a bit of a hike up the hill to Chora but the port had plenty just a stroll down the hill. Buses run from outside the hotel to Chora frequently where you can get your party and shopping fixes well and truly satisfied. The rooms are spacious, clean and all you need including a safe, fridge, tv and large bathroom. There is also the security of an ever present night guard to keep the peace. Vangelis arranges all pickups and drop offs for transfers which takes the guesswork out of logistics. This is one of the best holiday villas I have ever been to and it comes highly recommended. Thanks to all the staff who really made this visit for us.

Beautiful hotel and location

This was our favorite hotel that we stayed in during our recent trip to Greece. I wish we had more than one night there. The hotel is a short walk to either the port or the main town but they gave us complimentary transport to the port for our pick up and dropped us off at the port beach on our departure. The room was very spacious and had a lovely view of the hills and sea. The owner's took time to show us around and explained locations on maps. I would definitely stay at this hotel again and highly recommend it to anyone. There was also a nice pool. Location was ideal and in a quiet area. Thank you!

Smart stop

We used this as a stop over before island hoping after a long fly in from South Africa. Nice pool and very close to the Acropolis and resturants. We walked from the hotel and it was a quick ride in a taxi to the port.

Fair value

We chose Homer's Inn because it was between Chora where all the nightlife is, and the port, which has some nice restaurants and cafeteria's. The Fourno (bakery) there is especially good. It is easy to walk to both. The rooms are clean but basic. The service is very good, and all our needs were quickly taken care of. The breakfast is good and the staff are all friendly.

Despite it being one of the smallest rooms I've stayed in, the customer service at Homer's Inn Hotel was the best of my stays in Greece. From being picked up at the port, everyone was very welcoming, friendly and didn't make you feel like they were doing you a favour. They were very helpful in helping me organise a canoeing/snorkelling safari which I highly recommend. It's very well located near the port, the public bus stop is right outside and it's also close to the main village. The pool area is one of the best with a bar (which plays good tunes) and lots of areas to chill in and out of the sun. I would highly recommend Homer's Inn.

I had a great experience here! it was in between the town/village (where most of the restaurants and bars where) and the beach clubs. It was also walking distance to two of the nicest beaches. The rooms were really nice and spacious. Make sure you talk to Tenasis (the concierge guy) if you have any questions, he was really helpful and nice!

Best Hotel!! Great Value, Amazing View!

I can't say enough amazing things about Homer's Inn. This was a snap decision to stay a night in IOS, we found Homer's Inn for a fabulous price and hoped for the best. We were pleasantly surprised. The owner met us to pick us up from the Port and it was a short drive, or nice walk up to the hotel. Upon arrival we were met by the owner's wife and son, who helped us with our bags, gave us some juice and helped us check in. They had a TONNE of helpful information about the island, recommended some great places to eat, what beaches to go to etc. The bus stop is literally outside the front door and comes every 20 minutes. Our room was just as fabulous as the staff. Basic, but super clean and comfortable. AC and a safe were a nice bonus. The view of the port and the hills was outstanding. We could have sat on the balcony all day. The pool again was a pleasant surprise and the pool bar was great. We had had enough of the beach and spent our afternoon hanging by the pool where the owners son made us some fabulous drinks. Breakfast was 5 euros, but when you pay 2.50 euro for a cappuccino anywhere else it was worth it. The owner again, drove us back to the port to catch our ferry the next day. Overall, we can't recommend Homer's Inn enough and we wish we had much more time there. Ios was a lovely island, much less touched by tourist with amazingly friendly locals and great views.

Can't Go Wrong Staying at Homer's Inn Hotel!

I highly recommend staying at Homer's Inn Hotel in Ios. Vaggeli and his family are incredibly accommodating and friendly. From large, clean rooms, to high-speed WiFi and satellite tv, coupled with great views and a large pool to relax at, the hotel was a great experience. A bus stop to the main city and Mylopotas Beach is literally across the street from the hotel and run rather frequently.
