    ABOUT THE HOTEL

    • Official Rating

    The Amazones Driades - previously called Driades Apartments - are nestled into a hillside, with unobstructed views over the village and the bay.

    The Amazones Driades are set on a steep hillside above Hersonissos. There’s a clutch of bars and restaurants within five minutes’ walk, and a larger selection in the harbour area, which is a 20-minute downhill stroll.

    The apartments are simple yet homely, decorated in a traditional Greek style. From your balcony, you’ll have panoramic views over the terracotta rooftops and out to sea.

    Just back from another wonderful stay at driades with people who feel like family. The hospitality is fantastic and the team cannot do enough for you. Special mention of manager George who cannot do enough to ensure you have a great stay. This is our third visit to driades, and some families there were on their 6th or 7th. While we visited we had a small problem with our air conditioning and honestly George was fantastic, doing everything he could and in as short a time possible to get it fixed for us. Also special mention to Katerina who works so hard, all the time and always so smiley and happy about it. The rooms are spotless too! So lovely how you will often see the families of the people who work there and owners too, children and friends. The views are spectacular but the people make this place. We will be back next year for sure. Thank you again to the team for a wonderful holiday!
    Beautiful view

    Stayed at the Driades for 9 days in August. The apartment was lovely with a huge balcony and a fabulous view. The pool was a good size and we were looked after well at the bar by George. Apartments were cleaned regularly and was stocked with everything to make basic snack meals. Some review's said it wasn't suitable for some people due to the hills leading up to it. How right they are being at the top of the village. But take your time enjoy the view on the way up them have a cold beer when you get there to cool down !!
    nice people but room not as the pictures on their own website
    11 Sep , 2019 england77822, 186338
    we had booked a one bedroom apartment, & viewed reviews and pictures online including Driades own website pictures so we knew there were a lot of steps, an extra 7 euros per day for the air-con, a steep hill to the appartments from the road and that the rooms were basic before we went, which we had accepted upon arrival we were shown to our room, which was in the middle of the hill so it could have been worse, when we got to the room we were very disappointed that it was not the same as the pictures online pictures on Driades website show a rectangle room with the bedroom & bathroom off this & a small cooking area, this was not what we received I was told all the one bed apartments are the same & informed them this is not what is on their website to which i didnt really get an answer the apartment itself was clean, but just not what had been expected views from the balcony were good & this was the most pleasant area of the room the pool area was nice enough, wifi not great from room, didnt try at bar area, no TV, no microwave just a couple of electric rings at the end of the sink/draining board we were so disappointed we decided to take a trip to Chania and book something there for a couple of days there were no bowls? and mismatch of a few kitchen items also if i am going to pay 7 euros a day for aircon i would like it in more than just the bedroom i will add pictures rather than pick more holes
    Lovely relaxing break.

    These apartments are very basic and could do with updating but they are clean and tidy and the views are outstanding. The staff were wonderful and could not do more to help us throughout our whole stay. We were a family of 5 (a 7 year old a 5 year old and a 4 month old) and had a wonderful break here, all I would say is that if your little ones do not like walking then the hill up to this hotel will not be for you as it is very steep and you are very high up. We were lucky that our children are used to plenty of hill walking so for us it was fine. The beach was a good 20 minute walk down the hill for us with little legs and a pushchair and then we got a taxi back up the hill for €7 each time! The pool is lovely a great depth and when we were there very quiet, it was getting busier during our last couple of days. The children’s pool is very very small. The pool bar was lovely, with a fantastic view of the sunset in the evenings and then you are a 5 minute walk to some wonderful restaurants for dinner. We had a really relaxing break here, very quiet and chilled which is just what we wanted.

    Everything as described and expected. Basic apartments although kept very clean by the hard working staff. Peaceful with good views from pool area and rooms. Some refurbishment to showers and sun-beds and I would have given a 5. Snack bar good value George was always happy to serve i actually seen him smile twice even when he tried to hide his the smile....same as other reviews dropped off 5 minutes away the apartments are uphill we were offered a lift from the staff to our pick up point at the end of our holiday. Piskopiano and Koutouloufari with restaurants and bars on your door step old Hersonissos about 20 minute walk and the Port of Hersonissos 20 minutes down hill.
