Our take
The building is the reason I would book Syrou Melathron: a 19th-century neoclassical mansion in Vaporia with restored painted ceilings and original woodwork, a short walk from Asteria Bay. The rooftop terrace adds panoramic sea views, and rooms are air-conditioned with minibars. The 8.6 score from over 200 guests is good, if below some smaller Ermoupoli addresses. Choose it for character and setting rather than modern facilities.
- ✓Explore the Vaporia neighborhood on foot to discover its unique charm and architecture
