Orloff Boutique Hotel

The hotel is a short walk from the port and a beautifully kept historical building. The room was comfortable, clean and well equipped. On arrival we were given a local map and recommendations for eating, we tried three of the four and they were all excellent and all within 5 minutes walk of the hotel. Breakfast was served in the courtyard under the lemon trees and there was a good selection. The staff were all friendly and helpful. It is a lovely place to stay.

A beautiful hotel in a gorgeous setting. The Orloff Suites were luxurious, modern, quiet and very relaxing. The hotel staff could not be more accomodating or lovely. Located close to the main centre but far enough away to be super peaceful. I don't think you could improve anything. It was perfect. We would highly recommend and would definitely stay here again.

Very nice small location, extremely kind people welcoming hosts in all activities. Hydra is for sure a "special" place to be, specially in calm season. We were there for four nights, explored bit of the island, enjoyed very Greek Tavernas and bars. Lovely

We were lucky enough to spend 5 nights at the Orloff Boutique Hotel, and we loved every minute of it. It's a great hotel that's just far enough away from the main port area to be quiet, but close enough to make it an easy walk. We went with two other couples who stayed in the main hotel while we stayed in the Nido Suite in the Legacy Orloff building. The Nido Suite was great and the bed was super comfortable. It is a little further of a walk, and up a bunch of steps, so if you aren't as keen on that type of walk, then I recommend staying at the main hotel. Our friends said their rooms were great as well, so it shouldn't be a problem which room you pick. For amenities, the WiFi was strong with easily getting 50 Mbps anywhere in the hotel grounds. They kept the hotel secure at night, so you had to have a key or fab to get into the hotel grounds themselves. We had no issues whatsoever while on the island, but definitely gave my wife a stronger feeling of safety. As for the staff, they were amazing! They were very helpful, friendly, and went above and beyond in every category. The breakfast chef, Nikos, was absolutely amazing. He made our group's day every morning. After the first morning, he knew our spot and had pots of coffee already out and ready for us to partake in. He kept offering to make different coffees for us, and made sure we always had enough coffee. The breakfast bar itself had a plethora of food and options, and we always loved the rotating dish that Nikos would make. The front staff in Angeliki and Paschaline were both so helpful. They gave us great recommendations on where to eat or which beaches to go to. They also made sure we had everything, even when we were out in the courtyard just having a great time. We couldn't have asked for a better hotel for our inaugural trip to Idra, and they made it such a delight that we are already talking about when we can get back. You can bet that when we do, we'll be staying at the Orloff Boutique Hotel.

We have stayed in a variety of places on Hydra over the years: guest houses, hotels, self catering. This was the best. The hotel itself is a lovely building, the people who work there are charming, friendly & efficient. Our room was very comfortable and spacious, and quiet too. The breakfast is excellent with home made pastries etc, and the little shady garden is a great place to sit beneath pomegranate trees. That’s a real plus in the heat. The location is very very good, a short walk from the port up a gentle slope. I think the only steps are those up to the hotel door. Thoroughly recommended and we hope to return.
