Hide Out Suites

Guests praised the spotlessly clean suites, delicious breakfast, friendly staff, spacious infinity pools, and convenient location near the beach and city center. The rooms offer comfortable and luxurious private accommodations.

We booked this hotel for a luxury experience for 3 nights. The view and outdoor area is lovely and is beautiful to wake up to. However, for the price point and position they are trying to situate themselves in the market - there was a lot lacking for us. • no full length mirror • no tissues in bathroom • few items in the suite were noticeably from ikea • glassware and spoon for tea / coffee was dirty • tacky sticker in the bathroom to prevent you flushing tissue (understand this needs to be communicated but the sticker was tacky and peeling off) • toilet smelt of sewage • shower head was squirting in all directions • floor felt dirty (had to wipe feet before putting shoes on) • noticed a few hairs that weren’t ours! • room service took 1 hour for lunch and also salad was soggy (this is because it comes from the beach bar) • reception staff talking amongst themselves in Greek language whilst we were waiting • would often call the room and then when we would answer they would end the call (would be very annoying if we were asleep) • had to call reception every day to tell them when we wanted the cleaners to come (never had to do this before?!) • tea and coffee was messy and not aligned in the tray (I know this sounds picky but when paying nearly £400 a night I would expect this to be straight) • no water in the fridge for our arrival • staff member forgot who we were after he collected us from the port • pool was very cold • had to pay €5 each for use of a gym that is part of a sister hotel (gym was not a luxury experience whatsoever and wouldn’t expect to pay this for the price of the hotel) The outdoor area does lose sun by 5pm but understand there was always going to be a point it was lost! No not complaining about that. The area of Ios is strange - you either have the main centre or the beach area. Whilst there are nice restaurants among these, nowhere gets busy before 9pm. Best restaurants we visited were Salt (near the beach) and Katogi (in the centre). In summary, we would not recommend this hotel if you are looking for a super luxurious experience. Unless you are in Ios for a wedding, or a party scene - then I would suggest to choose a much nicer Greek island to visit.

Cream of the crop Vi bodde först på Farout Hotell & Spa, som var fantastiskt. Men Hideout Suites tar hem priset som den mest fantastiska hotellupplevelsen vi någonsin fått uppleva!
