The George Hotel

“Amazing stay at The George Hotel Mykonos”

The George Hotel is set just up from it's sister property - Hotel Acrogiali, that is located on the beach. We really enjoyed the view of the sea and the laid back feel of this hotel. The Family room we booked was very large with two rooms and a bathroom and a large patio with loungers. It was clean, had a mini fridge, closet, desk / counter areas and a large bathroom with some basic bath amenities to use. It was a good value which enabled us all to stay together in this 'suite' that still gave everyone enough space. The daily breakfast buffet that was included in the stay was really good and fresh every day. We enjoyed the hot tub and pool deck with loungers for wonderful quiet time with a hint of music from the main bar area. It was great to order beverages/food right from our chairs. It was all served hot, fresh and flavorful. We did utilize the beach loungers at the sister hotel and really enjoyed our time at the Platis Gialos Beach. We appreciated that we could reach out to the hotel ahead of time and arrange for the transfer service to and from the ferry port...that service was also included in our stay. Thank you for the fun stay.

“Clean Modern Hotel.”

A clean modern hotel a few minutes walk from the questionable Platis Gialos beach and restaurants. We booked it because it catered for mobility issues however on arrival you still have to walk up a big set of steps, before you can reach the lobby and lifts. The hotel is very clean, though a big basket of dirty towels right by the entrance seems a strange place to store them. Our room was a strange one, on Level 1, a short walk from the lift. It is, however right next to the cleaners enclave where they eat and sleep. Some loud laughter on occasion but nothing annoying. They were very respectful and polite. The room was fine, with a nice sea view, lovely air con which worked really well, coffee machine was so loud, I thought it was going to throw itself off the counter. Bathroom was modern and very clean, slight design fault with the glass partition being a little short allowing water all over the floor. Shower was powerful with a big round rain head that worked well, also had a shower wand. Really liked the bathroom. TV was fine, though occasionally had to go into settings and clear caches to make Netflix work. In general though, it worked well. Fridge was ok, very small, struggled to get 2 litre bottles in and only used 500ml. Beds were comfy, sheets clean and nice light covers, pillows were nice and thick. The only downside is none of it was changed all week, just made every day. Outside, the bar and pools were all nice and clean. Service was good, staff friendly and accommodating. The only bad thing outside was the decking. Way past its usefulness and I got several huge splinters getting on and off the sunbeds. The sunbeds were good, all wooden with thick mattresses, very sturdy and easy to get on and off. The only downside was how many there was, this is a quiet hotel, some days, there were only a couple of people and the closeness of the beds to each other sometimes made it a bit awkward when people sat next to you. The ordering system is a bit janky. You press the buzzer on your umbrella and a member of staff walks from the bar to your bed, takes your order, walks back, get your drinks, walks back, then another member of staff walks back with the payment machine. It was literally easier to walk and get a beer, and walk back, much to the bemusement of the staff. Food was fine, although expensive, after the third day, we got bored of paying €45 for bar snacks and walked to a lovely little cafe called Caffé Portioli (I think this used to be the popular Gyros place), where we ate for the rest of the holiday. When paying, you will also have to tip or not before you can progress to the payment screen. We tipped, so it didn’t affect us, but it might be awkward for people who don’t. The pools were nice though they allow glasses around the pool. We saw two girls sitting at the water’s edge have their glasses smashed by some kid and his football ( a rarity thankfully), they didn’t tell staff they just picked up the pieces and swished water over the bits. The top pool has huge steps going into the pool and it goes straight into the deep end. I would stay here again if it wasn’t in Mykonos, which we didn’t particularly like. Overall a decent hotel.

“Disappointment”

The pools and jacuzzi were green with tiny moss if you look carefully. Therefore, we didn’t dare to swim in the lovely looking pool. The sunbed cushions were dirty and so were the floors in the room. Breakfast was not generous for the price of the rooms. Mykonos is an expensive place to vacation bu… more

“Views is really good from the rooms”

The hotel location is good and near the bus station but the hotel lobby area always hot since the hotel management not turn the Air Conditioning on at the lobby area but the staff very friendly and helpful
