Boutique Hotels in Kos

The island of Kos is the sun-drenched heart of the Dodecanese, famous as the birthplace of Hippocrates and a landscape rich with ancient history. Visitors come to explore the impressive ruins of the Asklepieion, an ancient healing temple, and the imposing 15th-century Neratzia Castle in Kos Town. The main draw is a perfect blend of culture and relaxation, where you can cycle along the flat coastal paths past the Plane Tree of Hippocrates one day and sail to the volcanic island of Nisyros the next. Long, sandy beaches like Tigaki and Marmari offer calm, shallow waters ideal for families.

For a convenient base with great nightlife and restaurant options, stay in Kos Town itself. Those seeking a quieter, traditional Greek village atmosphere prefer Zia in the hills or the seaside charm of Kefalos on the island's western tip. The island suits everyone from history-loving solo travelers to families and couples, and it's easily reached via its international airport, with excellent ferry connections to neighboring islands like Rhodes and Kalymnos. Renting a scooter or a car is the best way to discover secluded coves and inland villages.

On HOTEVI, you'll find 208 places to stay across the island, offering a wide range of choices. Accommodation is dominated by good-value family-run apartments and mid-range hotels, particularly in the main resort areas, with a growing selection of stylish boutique hotels in Kos Town and a few larger beachfront resorts for a full-service holiday.
