Independent hotels in Naxos and Lesser Cyclades, South Aegean

"Picture does not represent our room. The "suites" are in the old market section of the old city of Naxos. It's an interesting walk through alleyways from the waterfront to the apartment/suite. There were a few stairs but nothing too steep. There is NO parking anywhere close to the suite, and the only access is via the alley. If you want an authentic Greek experience, this is it. The room had high ceilings, a full kitchen, washer, and king sized bed. The window opened to a view of the old market. Bathroom was adequate. The place was clean and management was very attentive. "

"Great location in a cute town"

"This might be my favorite hotel I've ever stayed at. The room wasn't anything special - had a queen bed, a fridge, a small table, and a bathroom that had a shower that spilled everywhere into the bathroom as most did in Greece. The patio was pretty nice when there weren't cars parked on the street (we were on the first level) - you could see the Portara from our room (and the sunset behind it, if we weren't super unlucky with every night we were there being rainy). But where this hotel really exceeds is the service. First of all, the free breakfast is unmatched by any hotel anywhere. So much fresh food, including quiches, cheese pies, eggs, meat, fresh fruit, bread, desserts, and much more. Everything is fresh from the island and made by the hotel staff. It's a must-have in Naxos, honestly. Apart from breakfast, the hotel staff was awesome, too. They allowed us to check in early, and gave us some house-made wine and quiche upon arrival to welcome us! Due to some miscommunication (that was truly no fault of the hotel staff), we missed out on scheduling the pool & hot tub room a couple nights, and as an apology for the miscommunication (again, not their fault), they gave us a bottle of their incredible house white wine. All of the staff was so friendly and accommodating in any ways they could be. The hotel is also less than 10 minutes walking from the port and bus station. My wife and I would 100% stay here again when we find ourselves in Naxos again someday."

"Just got back from a week in Naxos ( October 25 ) the place was incredible. From the ferry we took the local bus (2.30 euros) and drop off 25 feet from the Hotel. Ocean view. The staff was so accommodating, and the Spa treatment was sensational. breakfast buffet was very generous and stayed open till 11 AM. Meals at the hotel were a little more expensive but more refined than the local restaurants. When we left, most of the restaurants were closing down for the season. "

"Clean room and comfortable bedding. Located in close proximity to the port with lots of shopping and dining options. Beautiful hotel"

"Great walking distance to the beach with great restaurant options. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Bummed that we had to leave a day early because of the strikes. "

"The room was amazing, beautiful, practical and quiet to sleep. So grateful we found Emery Hotel so closed to the center and Marina/Port. Walking distance to great restaurants and bakery. "

"Ideal hotel, generous room sizes, considerate design and attention to detail, non-corporate, kind staff and in perfect location for a holiday in Naxos. Easy to walk into town by beach or through the streets, the beach is on your doorstep if you want to swim in the sea and there is also a lovely pool at the hotel. Close to a bus stop if you want to venture over to the bigger beaches south of Naxos Town. We came for three nights and then changed our holiday plans so we could return for a further three nights. Naxos is the best island and we say Alkyoni is the best hotel."

"Excellent place to stay, close to town and shopping and employee were really nice."
