From the warm welcome by staff from the moment you enter (thank you Nisa, Nikos and team), this felt like the most comfortable place to stay in Greece. The hotel is ideally located, attractive and very clean, and my room felt more spacious than usual hotels. Breakfast was delicious, promptly served and fairly priced. The aptly named Gem is a total winner.

The hotel boasts a fantastic location, being just a short walk away from all the major tourist attractions and the shopping square. While we found the breakfast selection to be lacking and not up to par, we recommend considering dining options elsewhere for your morning meal. Aside from this, the hotel itself is truly excellent!

We loved our stay as it was within walking distance to most sights. We had a room on 6th floor with a veranda which was perfect for a drink before bed. Breakfast first class. Bed very comfortable, bathroom and shower first class with beautiful Greek toiletries. I actually went across the road to the local pharmacy and bought some to take home. Good air con which was def appreciated. Would recommend.
