Hotel Christina
Three hundred metres from the port, right in the centre
About this hotel
Hotel Christina sits in the centre of Skiathos Town, close enough to the port, roughly 300 metres, that ferry departures never feel like a rushed morning. Rooms are simply decorated with wooden furnishings and tiled floors, a fridge and cable TV in each, and some balconies open directly onto Aegean Sea views. The private bathroom comes with a hairdryer as standard. Restaurants, bars and supermarkets sit within a short walk, and Megali Ammos beach lies roughly 1.5 kilometres away, with the airport a further two kilometres beyond that. Common areas stay simple rather than elaborate, in keeping with the size of the property. None of this is flashy, but it covers what a short island stay actually needs.

Our take
This suits travelers who prioritize proximity to the port and old town over a beachfront position, given the central 300-metre distance to the ferries. The simple room style suits a short, practical stay rather than a long luxury one. Families wanting direct beach access should look toward Megali Ammos properties instead. It is a straightforward, honest fit for the right traveler rather than a fit for everyone.
- ✓Book a sea-view balcony if available, not every room at this property faces the water.
- ✓Walk to the port the night before an early ferry to check timing, it's a genuinely short distance.
- ✓Use the central position for restaurant variety, options are dense within a five-minute walk.

Why guests love itHotel Christina is in the centre of Skiathos Town, 300 metres from the port, which makes ferry days easy with children and luggage. Rooms are air-conditioned with free WiFi, and some have balconies over the Aegean. The airport is two kilometres away, and the sandy beach of Megali Ammos is 1.5 kilometres, a walk or a short ride. No pool or kids' facilities are listed, so I see it as a central town base. It is rated 8.8 from 509 reviews.
