Porto Mykonos Hotel is a well-placed, mid-range-to-upper choice for people who want to walk everywhere. It stands in Mykonos Town about five minutes on foot from the Old Port, roughly a quarter of an hour from the windmills and a short stroll from Matoyianni Street, and it looks over the port and the sea. The style blends Cycladic architecture with modern, minimalist rooms. There are fifty-nine individually furnished rooms in eight types, including suites with outdoor jet tubs, and rooms and suites with private pools. The hotel has a pool, a restaurant, two bars, a terrace, a garden, a library and a gym, and it offers in-room massages. Free self-parking on site is rare in Chora, and the hotel is pet-friendly for one small pet.
Location and getting around
The hotel is in the middle of town, a few minutes on foot from the Old Port, where the boats to Delos leave from the town beach, and close to the shops and restaurants of Matoyianni Street. The windmills and Little Venice are about a quarter of an hour away on foot. The airport and the New Port are a short drive, and the hotel can arrange transfers. Because lanes in Chora are narrow, check the arrival directions with the hotel before you land.
The rooms
The eight room types range from a Deluxe Sea View Room and Superior Suite to Honeymoon and Premium Suites with outdoor jet tubs and sea views, and Executive Suites and Deluxe Rooms with private pools. The building has no elevators and upper floors are reached by stairs, so ask for a lower floor if stairs are a problem. Rooms facing the port have the best views.
Who it suits
Couples, honeymooners and independent travellers who want to be in town with a pool and a garden, and families who would rather be able to walk to dinner than drive. Breakfast is a buffet from 08:00 to 11:00 for an additional charge, so many guests eat in town instead.
Season and good to know
This is a seasonal hotel. The hotel is closed from 16 October to 31 March, so it takes guests from April to mid-October, and the pool and garden are at their best from May. Check-in is from 14:00 and check-out is before noon. The hotel is wheelchair accessible only with limitations, and the minimum check-in age is 18.
