Nikki & Lisa provided us an outstanding stay at Brother’s Hotel. Our group of five found the property to be central, comfortable and very clean. We loved relaxing by the pool! We would highly recommend booking a room at Brothers for your next vacation.

The hotel and island is immaculate…. We had such an amazing holiday on ios and the hotel was perfect. 10 minutes to the beach on the flat and of course you’ll find all the bars and more traditional eateries compared to going into chora village but both stunning

Rania was one of the best hosts I have ever had. She was always there to answer any questions and always visible around the property. The grounds are very nice and the pool is an amazing touch. Everything about the place is very nice and you are close to a lot of things in Imerovigli. You do need to walk up a little hill but its not bad what so ever. We rented an ATV which was perfect since you can easily get to Fira and Oia within 20 minutes MAX.

Really welcoming hotel quite close to beach/port,
Really good experience staying at the Brothers, from being picked up on our arrival at the port to being taken back for our departure. Nicki and Lisa are great hosts making you feel at home straight away, nothing is too much trouble. Nicki will give you a great briefing when you arrive and Lisa always seems to be on hand to deal with any problems you may have. If we ever return to Ios this is the place we will be staying.

Perfect in every way. The hosts Nikki and Lisa very good, they feel like family already. Great location and if you want a lift into the village Nikki will take you. They have created a perfect IOS experience, brilliant hotel, they go above and beyond in every way. Missing them and IOS already. We will definitely be back. It’s easy to tell why they have regulars, great breakfast, spotless rooms and the Romanian lady who cleans the rooms is lovely

This is a good hotel at a very reasonable price. Nicki and Lisa are highly attentive and speak very good English (she is from Sunderland), the pool is delightful and the rooms cleaned scrupulously each day. If you're looking for a relaxed but highly supportive environment, this ticks all the boxes.

Great little hotel with lovely, helpful staff
Our visit started with a happy and friendly welcome from Nicki at the Port. There was a really short drive to the hotel and we checked in straight away. Lisa and Nicki could have been more helpful and simply lovely. The pool area was lovely and we enjoyed the short walk to bars and restaurants each day. We were never up in time to try the breakfast at the hotel so can't comment on that. If we ever go to Ios again, Brothers Hotel is number 1 on our list of places to stay.

From the moment we arrived Nicki and Lisa made us feel very welcome. They shared their local knowledge and experience of the Island to ensure we had the best possible stay. The hotel is ideally located being within walking distance of the port and town centre. But is also far enough away to enjoy your holiday with peace and quiet. Rooms were extremely clean and beds very comfortable. Will definitely visit again and would recommend to anyone.

Perfect Stay
Nikki personally met us at the port of Ios and drove us to his beautiful hotel. He and his wife Lisa were extremely welcoming. Upon arriving, we sat down with Nikki over a cup of coffee and a map to learn about the sites in town. The room was spotless, very modern, and spacious. The pool area was very relaxing, with a fully stocked fridge. The location of the hotel was great because it was walkable to most of the sites but also secluded enough to not be bothered by the nightlife in Chora. We will most definitely book this hotel again when we return to Ios!!

Nice hotel
Free return transfers. Rooms are brand new, spotless and furnished beautifully. Pool is very relaxing. Location is good if you have a quad bike you are within 5 minutes drive off everything. The staff offered great assistance with driving to the port and let us know our ferry was late and made our wait more pleasant by staying by the pool while we waited rather than at the port. Would stay here again when in iOS

Perfect place in Ios
We had a wonderful stay at Brothers hotel in July 2016. The owners were very helpful in organizing our activities, picking us up and driving us back to the port. The breakfasts were good and generous, the room was quiet after all the noise of Santorini, this was a relief. Finally, the large pool was well appreciated even after a day at the beach. We highly recommend this place and we will undoubtfully return there on our next trip to the beautiful island of Ios.

Exceptional value
From the time Nikky picked us up at the port, he and Lisa could not do enough for us. From giving us direction on hike to sightseeing to driving us to a favourite restaurant, the service was second to none. The property is located within walking distance to the town and the beach and we would give it an overall rating of 10 out of 10. Nike has done an exceptional job in creating a first class accommodation while the balance of the staff maintain it in top notch condition. The breakfast buffet was excellent.

Great hotel and hosts
Lisa and Nicky are great hosts! We spent both days having nice conversations with them during breakfast or after dinner. Lisa spent a great deal of time upon check in reviewing the map of Ios and suggesting restaurants and areas to visit. This was very helpful! The pool was a great plus and the room was well decorated and comfy. Definitely a great spot for a couple who wants to stay away for Chora or Mylopotas beach party areas. It was a nice quiet getaway and easy rental Car/ATV hire that can be organized by Nicky. We will be back and would definitely recommend!

A charming little hotel, tucked away in a tranquil
From the beginning the service was excellent. Nikki was there to greet me at the port and drove us to the hotel where he then took the time to give me a detailed orientation of the area and recommended areas to visit and the best restaurants in town. He also gave me a map and really took the time to make sure I was well informed. After 6 nights of partying in other Greek Islands I was keen on a nice quiet couple of days in Ios and this was exactly what I got at Brothers Hotel. It's well located in a nice quiet valley, within walking distance of restaurants and really peaceful with great views of the surrounding countryside. I will gladly stay at Brothers again and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a tranquil holiday and amazing service.

Nice hotel, v helpful owner, in a quiet location
We stayed at Brothers Hotel for one night during a brief stopover in Ios. The hotel is about ten to fifteen minutes walk from the port, however the very helpful owner came and collected us from our ferry. The hotel itself is very pleasant - small, with clean and bright rooms and a nice central pool area. We stayed in the off season so it was very quiet - our room was right next to the pool, and when full up I imagine it could be a bit noisy. However for us it was very peaceful and relaxing. The owner gave us some tips about things to see and do in Ios and showed us a helpful walking route into town - again this is about fifteen minutes of mostly uphill walking (the old town is on the top of a hill). Overall a very pleasant experience and we would definitely consider staying again for a longer period - it feels out the way enough to escape some of the madness during high season! There is also a very nice beach closer to the hotel which we would have used had we stayed longer.

Unbeatable combination of location & friendliness
Nikiforos is the real deal. He picked us up from the port, told us about secret pathways to the main town and sights, and upgraded our room instantly based on a last-minute request. He even helped re-baptize my girlfriend with a more Greek name (Francis became Froso).

After a quick change in plans we had to find affordable accomidatook in Ios very quickly. Nick picked us up from the port and tool us to the hotel which is approx 800 meters away from the port. His wife Lisa rang through all he ins and outs of the island. She then helped us with laundry and made us feel at home after a very terrible morning. We cannot rate this hotel high enough! Next time we are in Ios will be back here!

Nikki was waiting to meet us from the ferry which was a nice surprise and very welcome. He has a lovely hotel with large bright spacious rooms and a lovely garden and swimming pool which we had to ourselves.Nikki and his family made us feel very welcome and gave us lots of information for places to visit on his beautiful island. It is only about a five minute walk down to the beach and another five in to the port to visit the lovely tavernas there. We would recommend Enigma for the best Greek Salad ever. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Brothers. Hotel

Excellent service from this hotel
We arrived from Santorini having arranged to get picked up, and the car was ready waiting for us when we got there. Then they went through all the things there were to do on the island, recommended somewhere we could see the sunset from and have a nice dinner after, and sorted out a hire car for us while we were there. It's a little out of the way, but it's still only about 5-10 minutes walk from the nearest beach, or 15-20 minutes walk from the centre of town (if you want to go clubbing in the evening or anything :) ). Would definitely stay there again if I was going back.

Friendly staff but bad location
Unlike most greek islands the downtown area for Ios is not near the port. I made a mistake when booking this hotel and found out about it after my arrival. The hotel is about a 25 mins walk from the port which has a few shops and restaurants but really really sleepy. Hora the town center is about another 30 mins walk on the main road or a 20 mins walk if you do the shhort cut stairs. So keeping in mind that this would take you almost an hour to get into the center of the town and the bus only departs from the port of the town. I rented a car for a day which was just enough time to see the entire island.
