Super helpful and knowledgeable host, with excellent advice on local hikes/places to eat; great location in a lovely mellow seaside town (despite a day of unusually high winds!)

We had a lovely spacious, spotless room with a balcony. The host Markos was so welcoming and his team kept our room pristine during our stay. The hotel is set a little way back from the sea front which made it peaceful in the evenings and parking was super easy.
We had a wonderful stay at Syia Hotel. Markos and Dimitra, the owners/managers, could have not been sweeter and helpful. We travel to Sougia frequently and have stayed elsewhere in the area and this is by FAR the best in town. We look forward to our return!
The property is in a great location and the town of Sougia has a very relaxed vibe . The rooms were very nice and clean. Markos and his wife were very good host and I would 10/10 recommend Syia hotel. If I ever go back I will definitely be staying at the hotel again.
Hôtel très agréable avec chambre bien aménagée balcon avec table et chaises très propre .
Un vrai jus d'orange pressé le matin
les confitures sont maison
ainsi que le yaourt grec
La présentation du petit déjeuner demande une amélioration
par contre la terrasse pour le petit déjeuner est sans âme manque de plantes et de décoration .
Les propriétaires sont charmants et accueillant,leur café glacé est top!
Séjour agréable dans cet hotel neuf .
Je recommande cet hotel pour une halte de qq jours à Sougia
Chambre très spacieuse. Hôtel très calme. La climatisation est efficace et silencieuse. L'accueil est très gentil. Si l'occasion se représente on reviendra dans cet hôtel sans hésiter. Sougia est bien plus agréable que Paleochora.
Der Strand ist grob kiesig mit grösseren Steinen durchmischt. Für Strandferien gibt es schönere Plätze im Süden von Kreta. Allerdings kann man hier gut wandern. Mit dem Auto sind es ca. 60 min nach Paleochora. Man muss über den Berg fahren, wie immer im Süden von Kreta. Es gibt keine Tankstelle im Ort, man muss ca. 55 km fahren zur nächsten Tankstelle. Also immer vollbetankt nach SYIA (Sougia) fahren. Ideal zum ausspannen für 3 oder 4 Tage. Hat noch vereinzelt Hippies dort. Nachtleben gibt es nicht! Das Dorf ist sehr ruhig, hat keine Durchgangsstrasse.
Stayed overnight after walking Irini gorge
Brilliant find the manager was so friendly and helpful with local advice
Bedroom large and modern
So peaceful
Simple but fresh breakfast
Sougia has a real laid back atmosphere with good tavernas within a few minutes walk
Thoroughly recommend
Staff is very helpful recommending activities, treks, hikes in the area.
Rooms are equipped with a kitchen for cooking, hot drinks, place to dry clothes, two AC units. Highly recommended!
Nous avons séjourné deux nuits dans cet hôtel et avons été remarquablement bien conseillé et aidé par le réceptionniste pour organiser notre randonnée dans les gorges de Samaria.
Chambre avec coin cuisine.
