Ett gömt paradis

TĂ€nk att sova till havets brus. Boka ett rum med balkong direkt mot havet. SĂ„ rofyllt. GĂ„ ned och simma och snorkla i havet direkt utanför pĂ„ hotellets lilla strand. Ät en god frukost pĂ„ den fina altanen. Enkla och vĂ€lstĂ€dade rum med AC och kylskĂ„p. En promenad bort frĂ„n turistiga sandstranden och utelivet bor du ute pĂ„ en fin udde. Andra gĂ„ngen jag bor hĂ€r och Ă„ker gĂ€rna tillbaka.

Kleines Hotel mit viel Flair

FĂŒr ein 2 ** Hotel aussergewöhlich. Die Möbilierung der Zimmer in der Mansarde ist einfach, aber zweckmĂ€ĂŸig und in guten Zustand. Die Betten fand ich super. Das ganze Haus ist aufgerĂ€umt und sauber geputzt. Das Hotel wirkt sehr gepflegt. Unschlagbar ist die FrĂŒhstĂŒcksterrasse mit Blick aufs Meer! Die Inhaber und das Personal waren sehr freundlich und haben uns stets weitergeholfen. Einziges Manko wĂ€hrend unseres Aufenthalts war, dass Jugendliche nachts vor dem Hotel sehr laut waren. Aber dafĂŒr kann die Hotelleitung natĂŒrlich nichts. Ich kann das Hotel allen empfehlen, die eine schöne Lage schĂ€tzen und eine familiĂ€re AtmosphĂ€re und dafĂŒr Abstriche beim Komfort in Kauf nehmen.

Utsikt och personal av högsta klass.

Hotellet var precis det vi vÀntat oss, men lite till. Spenderade fyra nÀtter hÀr tillsammans, och kan i efterhand sÀga att det Àr den bÀsta resa vi varit pÄ. Mycket tack vare hotellet. VÀrdparet Àr helt fantastiska och alltid tillmötesgÄende samt serviceminded. Allt inom lÀtt promenadavstÄnd, fantastisk utsikt, enkel men bra frukost. Man hör havet trots stÀngda fönster, vilket vi uppskattade. Kanske inte nÄgot för en person med svÄrigheter att somna dock.

Grazioso albergo sul mare

Ho soggiornato 5 notti in questo grazioso albergo a picco sul mare. Terrazza fantastica e ottima posizione. Camera pulita e confortevole. Personale disponibile. Ottimo rapporto qualitĂ /prezzo. Lo consiglio a tutti!

Great location with amazing views

Great little hotel with stunning views & really clean rooms. At the end of the main street but still within easy walking distance to restaurants & beach.

HĂŽtel de famille Ă  l'ancienne, super vue

Pas de chichi dans cet Ă©tablissement mais un confort de base largement suffisant et de trĂšs bon rapport qualitĂ© prix. Giardini Naxo est une ville touristique et en connait tous les travers, prix Ă  la hausse, grosse frĂ©quentation de gens pas respectueux. Mais Ă  l'OrphĂ©us vous ĂȘtes un peu en retrait de tout ça, en restant Ă  proximitĂ©. L'accueil est chaleureux, le patron parle en français, et vous conseille sur les activitĂ©s. Le petit dĂ©j est parfait.

A little gem!

Great hotel run by wonderful staff who did everything to make our stay a pleasant one. Comfortable room with great sea views, excellent breakfast on outside terrace overlooking the sea.

On the Rocks

Orpheus has a great position. Hotel owners great nothing too much trouble. We travelled in November so very quiet with lots of Giadini-Naxos closed for the winter. It suited us and we were very lucky with the weather and sea was still warm!

Great Hosts

We loved our stay. Our hosts Rosa and Hamid were very kind to us and made our stay a wonderful experience. We were there during one of the worst storms in the last few years, huge waves, sadly some destruction to neighboring restaurants, but not to this hotel. We would stay there again.

Et smĂžrhul i vankanten.

En lille uges ophold pÄ Orpheus var en oplevelse. Lidt a la Faulty Towers - et Êldre, lidt slidt familiedrevet hotel - men hvilken beliggenhed! Vi havde bestilt med balkon og havudsigt - og det mÄ man sige, vi fik! Ubeskriveligt at vÄgne op til Middelhavet fÄ meter fra morgenterrassen - og med stor morgenmadsterrase i stueetagen var oplevelsen komplet.

Mukava paikka!

Hiljainen, erittÀin hyvÀllÀ ja rauhallisella paikalla oleva pieni hotelli.BussipysÀkille n. 10 metriÀ, rantaan samoin. Hotellin henkilökunta erittÀin ystÀvÀllinen. Palvelutaso hyvÀ ja tapahtui "lÀhes huomaamattomasti". Aamiainen varsin niukka, mutta riittÀvÀ. Yleisten tilojen siisteys hyvÀ. Huoneen kalusteet hiukan nuhjaantuneita, mutta siistejÀ. Huone siivottiin joka pÀivÀ. Kolmen kattohuoneen yhteinen terassi valtava, lÀhes 300 m2. Terassilta mahtavat nÀköalat, kuten myös muista hotellin huoneista. Hotellin uimaranta pieni, vaatimaton laavakivinen poukama. Kaikkiaan hoteli vastasi hyvin ennakko-odotuksia.
