Belvedere
Budget sea-view rooms three minutes from Remataki Beach
About this hotel
Belvedere keeps things simple and affordable without skimping on the sea view, garden views and balconies standard across rooms that also include a minibar and refrigerator for guests who want a few basics on hand. Daily housekeeping and an English-speaking reception team cover the practical side of the stay, and the three-minute walk to Remataki Beach makes this one of the closer budget options to the sand in the old town. Guests consistently praise the friendly host and convenient location. Samos International Airport's closeness to town keeps transfers short on both arrival and departure days. The Eupalinos Tunnel and the Heraion of Samos are both a short drive away for a change from the beach. Vathy, the island's capital, sits around eleven kilometres north for a half-day change of scene. Panagia Spiliani above the harbor makes a worthwhile evening walk once the day's heat has broken.

- Daily housekeeping
- Convenient old-town location
Our take
This suits budget-conscious travellers who still want a genuine sea view and easy beach access, Belvedere proving that a lower price point doesn't have to mean losing the outlook. The friendly host, repeatedly mentioned by guests, adds a personal touch uncommon at this price range. Travellers wanting a pool or spa facilities should look to pricier properties like Studio Nikos or Doryssa Method Hotel instead, since Belvedere focuses purely on value and location.
- ✓Ask the host for taverna recommendations, the friendly service here extends well beyond simple check-in assistance
- ✓Use the minibar for cold drinks after the beach rather than walking out again in the heat
- ✓Book early for peak season, budget sea-view rooms this close to Remataki Beach fill up fast
Why we love it
