This hotel proved to be a pleasant surprise on our recent three days stay in the city. From check in to check out every process was smooth. All the staff members co-operated very well. Although we reached the place one hour before, but our room was ready. It was very beautiful, very clean and nicely decorated with necessary things. Bathroom... More

The individual rooms are not very large, but I enjoyed sitting on the patio just outside our window. The hotel is close enough to Mykonos Town that you can walk, but it is uphill. Despotiko is clearly not a luxury hotel, but the family owned property has great character with the large great room and eclectic dining hall. The breakfast... More

This hotel gets the job done. The good: As far as the location goes, it is nice because your are close enough to the main part of Mykonos Town to walk there but also far enough away that you aren't bothered by the night-time partygoers if you're hoping for a good night's rest. The staff are friendly and relaxed. The... More

This hotel had too many flaws for me to return, but please let me start with the pros: -Close to the bus station (busses go to all the major beaches, a great alternative for people who do not want to rent a car - gas prices are outrageous, even for European standards - or feel uncomfortable renting a 4wheeler/scooter). -Beautiful...

We were in Mykonos in October of 2012 and stayed at the Despotika Hotel. It was a lovely, small hotel with a European influence, perhaps Dutch. It was clean and the breakfast area was very nicely appointed. The breakfast was typical ( cake, cereal, yogurt, fruit, eggs, breads,etc.) but fresh and nicely presented. There was a beautiful pool area. My... More

Nice boutique hotel within walking distance to all the Mykonos liveliness! Hotel staff helpful and rooms clean. Pool area was relaxing as well. Just be warned it is on a steep incline so you will get cardio returning daily. Also close to bus stop taking you to all beaches. Would stay again.

This was the nicest hotel Gate One put us in, the only one with truly comfortable (US standards) beds and well-equipped bathroom. We had a good-sized room with a nice private patio - although beware the neighborhood cat - he is a cheese thief. Our original impression was poor, based upon a slog up a long flight of steps and...

The Despotiko is a lovely hotel with lovely rooms. It's nice and cool (temperature wise) and is quiet and relaxing. There is a great choice for breakfast (even better if there's toast - only one morning) and the staff are very helpful. It's an uphill walk from town but pretty close and good exercise. I like the location and would... More

I'm a strong believer in staff making or breaking a hotel. We were warned about the damp bathrooms and busy road next to the hotel but none of this could spoil my stay in comparison to the receptionist/manager on duty. She should really understand that she works in the hospitality industry and try a bit harder to make guests feel... More
