“absolutely the right decision!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 October 2009

We very rarely return to places visited before but now with flights to Santorini, it was easy for us to go back to Ios -previously there in 1981! We knew we preferred a quieter setting and had stayed at Yialos before so Brothers seemed the obvious choice from all the great reviews. Four nights was not enough. We felt so at home. Everything everyone writes about Niki and Lisa and family is true. Our daughter stayed there after we did and said she could see just why we loved it. Will we be going back ? Definitely and we won't be waiting 28 years this time!

“Wish we'd stayed longer !!”

From the minute Niki picks you up in his bright orange Bedford van till the time Lisa & him wave bye to you at the port, they make you feel as your one of the family. As we only had one night in Ios, Lisa wasted no time in telling us simply where to eat & where to drink, for which we had one of the best nights of our entire holiday - thanks guys. Once we surfaced in the morning it only left time for a quick dip in the lovely pool. Rooms are very clean. Walking time to port - 10mins. Lovely beach close by also. Our only regret is we only stayed one night, as we had pre booked accom in Santorini & didn't get to see more of the island - sorry guys. Don't worry we will be back to visit you again.

“Excellent value - first class hosts”

Quietly located about 15 minutes walk from the port. Clean towels daily. Affordable restaurants (recommend Susana"s)and bakery in the port area. Suggest hiring an ATV to get around, but take the bus to Manganari. Niki is the fountain of local knowledge and will go out of his way to help.Thank you Niki and Lisa - we much preferred Brothers and Ios to the secong leg of our trip in Paros.

“Great hotel at affordable price managed by priceless family”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 September 2009

We found the hotel and made the reservation on the web just one day before taking the ferry to Ios. We meet Niki, the hotel manager, after arriving and he explained in great detail all we could do in the island. Seriously talking, no paper guide is needed after talking with Niki.
At the beginning we planned to stay only two days in Ios but after the first impression following Niki's suggestions, we decided to extend our stay two more days. This gave us the opportunity to rent a motor boat during an entire day from George, a friend of Niki, and again the boat rental was possible thanks to Niki's help.
In summary, is a great-and affordable hotel in a peaceful place close to the port. We really enjoyed our stay and is 100% recommended.

Brothers Hotel is the place to be in Ios.
It has an incredible staff, rooms are spotless and nice and the rates are cheap.
It was the 3th time for me in Ios, but Niki gave as a lot of new suggestions for beaches and siteseeing.
You just feel like in your family house.
Thank you a lot Niki
Can't wait to be in Ios again
