Belvedere Hotel Mykonos

Belvedere Mykonos Hill Top suites have the BEST VIEWS anywhere in Mykonos! Their staff is super friendly and incredibly helpful. The driver Pedros, he is a dream to be accommodated by. Pedros bends over backwards for you, more than he should. It is his kind nature. What an incredible employee. Please give Pedros a raise! He deserves it!! The walk to the hill top part is quite treacherous as the roads are unfinished and have large spaces in between the cement that I cannot wear high heels on. Pedros drove us up and down Multiple times a day and was always just 2min away. The room itself was lovely with a huge terrace that fit a couch and a 6 person table & chairs. It is very light in the room, so clean and fresh. The pools are exceptionally clean. Word to the wise, there is a mini pool at the hill top suites where-as the larger pool is down at the regular part of the hotel where you do not need to be driven to go to the pool each time. Beds are firm but not too firm. Bathroom was kind of small for a suite but the view made up for that. Christina the manager at the hill top belvedere, she was more than helpful from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. She had fresh fruit upon arrival, an assortment. It is very close to everything, we could not have picked a better spot to be in. The only other better spot would be somewhere near the ocean which really would have not much of a view since it is at the bottom of the hill. Being at the top of the hill allowed for an enormous view of the entire city. AC works incredibly well. You will not sweat.

The hotel advertises itself as a 5 Star hotel but it is far from the 5 Star hotels we have stayed in like Ritz Carlton properties, JW Marriott, St. Regis, etc. We booked a sea and pool view room and our balcony view looked into a trash strewn alley with a homeless family just off our balcony. Since we didn't want to sit on our balcony, we took a glass of wine down to sit outside by the pool around 6:30. One of the staff members came by to tell us the pool was closed for dinner and we needed to leave within 10 minutes. Basically they take over the entire pool area to serve dinner although we were not told this in advance and there was no signage to indicate this. One of the front desk managers told us the next day that we could have moved to a different area by the pool but the staff member had not mentioned this. At the nightly price for the room we were extremely disappointed with the facilities, location, and service. I asked to speak to the manager on duty rather than writing an unfavorable review but after the staff member checked with them, we were told they not available but were offered a different room with a better view. Overall it was a very disappointing experience and a property we would never recommend or frequent again.

THE best hotel we have stayed in. Great location, great facilities - but what really sets it apart are the wonderful staff who work there. Nothing was too much trouble - each and every person at the Belvedere went out of their way to make sure we had the best of times. We laughed, we had fun, we didn't want to leave. And if you get the chance, visit the spa - a wonderful oasis of calm and luxury (and laughter) with Dimitra and Zoe.
