Hotels with Swimming Pool in Syros

For a true taste of Cycladic life beyond the postcard, head to Syros. This is the administrative heart of the islands, where a grand 19th-century elegance meets classic whitewashed charm. The main town, Ermoupoli, is a revelation, with its magnificent Miaoulis Square, the imposing Apollo Theatre, and an aristocratic quarter called Vaporia, where mansions overlook the sea. You’ll find authentic tavernas in the hilltop medieval settlement of Ano Syros and some of the region’s best sandy beaches, like Galissas and Kini, just a short drive away.

Ermoupoli is the most practical base, offering the widest choice of restaurants and easy access to ferries. The town suits culture-loving couples and solo travelers perfectly, with its neoclassical architecture and evening promenades. Families often prefer the calmer seaside villages with their shallow waters. Getting around is straightforward; the island has a reliable bus network, but renting a car or scooter unlocks the more secluded coves.

On HOTEVI, you’ll find 56 places to stay across Syros. The selection is dominated by charming, mid-range boutique hotels converted from old mansions in Ermoupoli, along with a good number of modern apartments and a few simpler, budget-friendly guesthouses in the coastal villages.
