The best hotels to stay in Syros island Greece

Where to stay in Syros

If you are staying for just a night or two in Syros, I'd suggest choosing a hotel in Ermoupoli, the island's grandiose capital. You'd want to spend at least a day in Ermoupoli anyway sightseeing, and it is a fascinating place to explore.

While the Greek island of Syros does have beaches, they are not in the same league as those on Milos, Mykonos, or Naxos. If you do want to go to the beaches in Syros, you can reach them just as easily on a day trip from Ermoupoli.

Take a look at this interactive map of Syros, and you can see that the majority of hotels are to be found in Ermoupoli.
