Absolutely charming property. Our hosts were amazing, the suite was exquisitely furnished in traditional décor and for comfort on three levels. Wonderful views from the open air top level terrace. Breakfast was a real treat with delicious homemade goodies tastefully presented and plentiful. The hotel is family owned and operated and every attention to detail is perfection. We enjoyed our stay and we will definitely return! Highly recommended!

Fantastic family-owned and operated Hotel
Petra hotel is tranquil, clean, and attractive. My wife and I enjoyed the fact that it was a couple friendly environment more than a kid-friendly hotel. We were looking for a getaway from the stresses of our day-to-day life, and Petra hotel delivered. The grounds and rooms are immaculate, and the staff was terrific. From the moment you arrive, your every need is taken care of, and there was never a want or need. The breakfast is the best we had throughout our vacation on four different islands. You will not be disappointed if you are looking for a peaceful, calm, and stress-free getaway.

Exclusive small boutique hotel
It is a beauyiful hotel mote exclusive and private than the nearby aktis. The owners are around and watch around which brings a special care and elegance. If we come to Patmos again we will stay there. The only little criticism we can bring is the room smelled some humidity..some old mositure different than the breeze coming from the see.

One of the best hotels in the world.
I have stayed in hotels all over the world. This is one of the very best that I have stayed in. The owners are very attentive, friendly and nothing is too much trouble for them. The location is perfect and as there are only 11 rooms, it is never overcrowded. The breakfast is sumptious with so much of it home made by Petroula, the joint owner, who is a brilliant cook. An atmosphere of calm pervades the whole place and eating our dinner on the terrace as night fell was an experience that I'll never forget. We can't wait to return.

A real gem.
This is the type of hotel that you want to keep to yourself. But in fairness to the owners, who appear to be a family, the hotel is a real gem with impeccable service, ideal location, and ultra cleanliness. The hotel is not large and would not be a good choice for families with small children, but it is ideal for adults and older children. Whether you visit Patmos for a day or a week, this hotel should be high on your list.

Patmos Island best hotel!
Very nice hotel with amazing customer service (definitely in the top-3-all-time hotel customer service I have encountered in my numerous travels around the world). The owners are there almost continuously and are a nice middle aged couple who truly want to help make your stay as fun and hasslefree as possible. Great breakfast. Nice rooms -actually our room had a better view than the suite we stayed for 2 nights. The suite was a nice coplimentary upgrade from the hotel to make it up to us for switcing us around due to overbooking (very rare to them). Excellent pool with nice view and food (try the watermelon-cucumber soup - it tastes amazing!) Easy access from both the port Scala and the Island capital Xwra (approx 6 euros by taxi, but there are also buses) Overall a great hotel definitely worth 4+ stars!

Very nice boutique hotel in Grykos. Service-minded and friendly staff. Very clean and facilities were in general well preserved and functioning. However, a lot o stairs and no elevator so travelers with small children should take notice. The price is quite high compared to the standard (we paid approx. 500 Euros/night) but it's a small hotel and we booked with fairly short notice, so that might have had an impact. Lovely swimming pool with pool area offering a stunning view over the sea.

Kleinschalig hotel met 5-sterren service.
kleinschalig hotel met zeer mooie kamers en suites. Het zwembad is op Patmos vrij uniek en zalig bij het zonneterras. De kamers zijn erg mooi ingericht met adembenemend zicht op zee, Petra baai. Maar wat het hotel uniek maakt is de fabelachtige 5-sterren service. Klein nadeeltje is dat het eten en drinken vrij prijzig is, maar er zijn andere goede restaurants en bars op wandelafstand.

Meraviglioso
Purtroppo solamente sei giorni in questo affascinante e splendido hotel sulla costa est a sud di Skala, il porto di Patmos, una delle isole più affascinanti del Dodecaneso Appena fatta la prenotazione su Expedia, la reception dell'hotel ha scritto dichiarando la disponibilità per ogni necessità; alla mia richiesta di eventuali transfert per l'hotel dal porto, ha risposto proponendo il loro servizio, con le relative tariffe, ma specificando che poteva essere più conveniente prendere un taxi.. Cosa che abbiamo fatto, visto il prezzo irrisorio (da 5 a 7 euro per corsa..) Prenotata una stanza deluxe vista mare, ho fatto richiesta di due letti singoli. All'arrivo in hotel la gentilissima Proprietaria ci ha informate che in assenza di stanza a due letti, ci aveva assegnato la suite ( stesso prezzo).. L'hotel è perfetto, elegantissimo nella sobrietà e nella semplicità .. la cura per i dettagli commovente.. La stanza era magnifica ed il servizio ineccepibile Una colazione servita sulla terrazza vista mare, letteralmente da principi: cibo curatissimo, cucinato espresso e con ottimi ingredienti (mi sognerò per molto tempo la marmellata di arance); il servizio ai tavoli da impacciati ma educatissimi giovanissimi camerieri davvero gradevole Non credo vi siano molte altre sistemazioni che possano competere con questa Per quanto mi riguarda, tornerò sicuramente! E lo raccomanderò così come raccomando la visita a questa isola meravigliosa

Lovely view, nice small hotel in a pretty setting
Patmos is a lovely Dodecanese Island and Petra is a good option if you want a small, well appointed hotel in a quiet location with nice views from the rooms and common areas. The service is very attentive, the rooms are attractive (although expected better for price -- size, decor, etc.), and the breakfast included was good. The beach is only a block away but it's important to have a car or motorbike as bay is full of yachts so less appealing for swimming, only a few restaurants nearby, and no nightlife.
