Good experience. Hotel well positioned between old and new port. Hotel organises transfers ( port 25€, airport 40) Clean rooms with good view of the harbours and the bay Pool area good for that afternoon relax - great view of the sunset. Service at the bar good and bar snacks perfect ( went forthe omlette) 10min downhill walk to the old town, yes the return leg more effort uphill but good to leave the buzz of the old town behind for the tranquility at Gorgona! Breakfast good to start the day - usual continental plus scrambled egg, bacon and sausage

This hotel was definitely worth a splurge. The staff was attentive and friendly and the views were phenomenal. The pool was amazing and offered a panoramic view of the island. Breakfast was high quality every morning. The rooms, themselves, weren't majorly adorned, but that's not a requirement for me when I stay at a hotel. The rooms were clean and functional with a cute balcony. The bathrooms were clean. Everything worked well in the room. The location of the hotel is subjective. If you want the party scene in Mykonos, this hotel is maybe not for you. If you want a quieter location, this was ideal. My one complaint - and this is not something the hotel has control over, so I didn't take away a star for this - is that to get anywhere from the hotel likely requires a vehicle. Mykonos is "walkable" in the sense that the island isn't big and many of the most popular things are clustered in Mykonos Town. That said, most of the streets on the island outside of Mykonos town are not pedestrian-friendly. If you walk, you will be sharing the road with ATVs, motorcycles, bikes, cars, vans, and buses. The hotel is located at the end of a winding street that has brick walls on either side. It's about a 10 minute walk to Mykonos town and/or the bus terminals, so we had to walk this road 2 - 4 times a day. I felt like I was taking my life in my hands every time because it's not just motorcycles and sedans passing by, but occasionally large vans that go faster than they should and leave inches to spare. In retrospect, we should have rented a car (which you can apparently do from the hotel), although our stay was a little too short for that and we didn't want to deal with the responsibility of driving on Mykonos.

“Hotel Gorgona is a 5”

Searching for Mykonos hotels can be confusing especially if you have not visited the island before. If you are staying only 1 or 2 weeks, and are not staying in some expensive all-inclusive resort hotel, then you definitely need to be I walking distance to town. Hôtel Gorgona is a family owned and operated that is a perfect choice. Why? a. Excellent service and super clean 23 room property. b. All rooms overlook the sea where your view can see from New Ferry dock to old port. c. Lite fare breakfast with fresh fruit, pastry, eggs, yogurts and great coffee. d. Compare prices and you will find it is nearly the best value for any white painted property with a beautiful pool, pool bar, comfy chaise lounge chairs overlooking the sea!

We Loved this wee hotel. Pros: Views from large balcony were magnificent. Room was a good size and was serviced every day. We requested extra pillows and within minutes they were delivered to our room. Pool area was beautiful. Pool area toilet facilities and shower were first class. Snack bar did, toasted sandwiches, pizza, omelettes, french fries etc. very pleasant lady did the cooking and serving. Breakfast was fine and included scrambled egg, bacon and boiled eggs. Only 10 minutes or so down the hill into town. Cons: Bathroom was a tad small and floor flooded when having a shower. WiFi was poor. However neither of these put us off. What did turn out to be a problem for us was the walk back up the hill from the town. It’s a very narrow, busy road with no footpath so I would say quite dangerous at times. A fit enough or young person would have no bother walking up the hill but we ended up getting a taxi (15 euro for 3 minutes). My mobility is not always great whereas my husbands is fine (we are mid 70’s. ) We noticed one of the hotels on the road had a golf type buggy as a shuttle bus. This would be a great addition to the Georgina if they supplied something similar for their guests at specific times. In conclusion(hill aside) I would highly recommend this delightful hotel with its wonderful views which are exceptional.
