We view ourselves as seasoned travelers, with 10 land based vacations to all parts of Greece, spread over a dozen and a half years. The first attempt to visit Hydra was a delightful pleasure made especially perfect while staying at the Phaedra Hotel. We are do-it-yourselfers and know when things are "right". The Staff, led by Hilda, the owner, made... more

My wife and I have visited Hydra annually over the last several years and have stayed in various hotels/ guest houses. This was our first time at the Phaedra and we were very impressed. We stayed in the Phaedra room - huge by Hydra standards - very well appointed with A/C and a small private balcony. Hilda is the consummate... more

The hotel is very well signposted and easy to find from the port - I'd say it is an easy five minute walk. Once there, the rooms are immaculate and well equipped with a small kitchenette unit if you fancy... more

My fiance and I stayed at the Phaedra Hotel last month (March 2008) and cannot say enough good things about the property, owner Hilda and the island of Hydra. We stayed in the "Phaedra" suite (each room has a name) and loved it. The room was charming, clean and comfortable with sunlight coming in from huge, bright windows. This property... more

I would heartily reccomend this guesthouse. On the icandescently beautiful island of Hydra, we were met at the ferry and donkeys carried our cases up the cobbled streets to the hotel. Large, new, spacious, comfortable and clean, the rooms are great. Nice small touches like free dvd´s by the TV. Hilda is a most gracious and personable host and serves... more

It's taken us a long time to get round to writing this review but we felt we should share what a wonderful experience we had. What a beautiful and relaxing place to stay, both the island and the hotel. We received a warm welcome from Hilda (the owner) who showed us to the Phaedra room, which was large and had... more
