Hotel Andreas

My mate found this Pension in the Lonely Planet guidebook as a "little known" but great spot, so we booked for August 2017. It was gorgeous and charming, a way of inviting visitors to participate in the ancient history of Old Town. This converted home was once used by Ottaman royalty. It still has the feel, but with great A/C. We got the room Lonely Planet advises, at the top with it's own balcony overlooking the city, and spent mornings and evenings there relaxing, drinking wine and enjoying the view. Because of it's age, it is a different place and may not be for you, the bathrooms are not modern, for example. But it was the best place we stayed at in Greece. The hostess, Suzanne, helped us navigate the city and bus lines to see this beautiful island and take in all the beaches. Steps away from the Pension is the most fantastic seafood restaurant ever. The Pension, as with anything in Old Town, is not easy to find, so I suggest you contact them directly to book and to help arrange transport, etc. We stayed 5 nights in August, saw Old Town, bussed to Lindos, went diving, relaxed and found lots of beaches to visit within 15 minutes.
