Skala Hotel

Like going back to a comfortable second home, staying at the Hotel Skala is guaranteed treat in every time. And, this time, our twelfth visit, we stayed three weeks enjoying everything the hotel and Patmos have to offer--in a word, a perfect Greek island vacation made possible by a warm, friendly, and efficient management and staff who make you feel like family. The hotel is an ideal combination of location (in the heart of the town and mere steps away from the lively port and the main streets) and peace, greenery and serenity; the Skala's entrance and flower-surrounded courtyard with seawater pool with bar are set off from the main street. They are reached via a short, lush bougainvillea-covered entryway. So all you hear is the bubbling water of a small fountain as you enjoy the varied breakfast choices on the sun-drenched terrace. Rooms are comfortable and modern and kept clean, crisp and cool. In some rooms with a seaview, you can sit on the balcony and take in the blue of the sea and sky before deciding which beach or attraction you want to enjoy, day and night. Whether it's the absolutely transparent and refreshing Aegean water with fish which swim up the beaches or a visit up the hill to white-walled Chora for a daytime visit to the Unesco-recognized monastery and church sites or in the evening for fine restaurant meal with a stunning view of Skala with its twinkling lights below, you will remember the sights all winter--and come back as we did the next year! While we appreciate all the team members at the hotel, a special word here for Anastasia at the reception, Dimitris in the breakfast room, and Dimitri at the bar. Manager Dimitri, now two years into his management, is perpetuating the top quality of the Skala, with dedication to improving it every year--although it's tough to see how you can improve upon perfectoin! Thanks to all and see you next year!wh

We stayed with family at the hotel in four rooms during the busiest time of the year. Everything was perfect, couldn't find fault with anything. Location is absolutely wonderful. A few meters from the taxi stand (although with a phone call they come right up to the hotel), the port, shops & restaurants. Breakfast options are plentiful and replenished continuously. The staff are exceptional. Special shout out to Pinelopi, the Reservations Manager, that went above and beyond to help us with an issue that had nothing to do with the hotel and then to help us with an additional room last minute. Dimitri at the pool bar was very polite and professional as were all the staff at reception and housekeeping. Patmos is a beautiful island and highly recommend Skala Hotel.

Located a 1 minute walk from the harbour and the heart of Skala, this hotel is located incredibly convenient and set back slightly from the road. It offers a cute pool area with bar, surprising variety for breakfast and the laidback charme of the golden era of past times. Rooms are fresh and offer stunning views, bathrooms are decent sized with plenty of counter space. Patmos is quite magical, and we would chose the Skala Hotel any time for future visits.

Enjoyed the location of the hotel and thought it was more modern than most hotels.

Lovely hotel on this beautiful island right in the heart of the main town. Staff are so friendly and helpful. Rooms spacious and very clean. Great variety on the breakfast buffet. Lovely sea water pool on the grounds too. Would definitely recommend this hotel.

Hotel Skala redefines hospitality. The management and the entire staff will go above and beyond to make your stay one that you will not forget. We loved our experience and we are grateful to your staff for all that they did! The hotel is located in the best area in Skala, an easy walk to restaurants shops and the ferry. The rooms are immaculate, there is also a mini fridge with bottled water that is replenished every day. The housekeepers are cheerful and helpful and brought me extra hangers with a smile. The breakfast buffet is hearty and a lovely way to start the day. Options for gluten-free and vegan diets as well. The property is lovely with flowers and the pool and pool bar are a great added amenity. Bartender Dimitirus made our stay unforgettable! This hotel is a gem.

It is just across the street from the ferry port and is within a 30 minute walk to the Apocolytous cave.

Very nice hotel, with big and very clean rooms. Breakfast is sufficient. Cited in a convenient location in the port, within a minute walk from taverns, cafes and other shops. Staff is very helpful and friendly.
