La Piscine Art Hotel

We really enjoyed our stay at the hotel. It's fairly modern, it's clean, it has a funky decor, a nice restaurant and bar, and it's centrally located in Skiathos town, so you can walk in from there. Although it's not so easy for ladies that like to wear heels. Our only complaint really was the lack of privacy from your room, and the amount of noise at night. This is because the vast majority of the rooms overlook the pool (hence the name I guess), and that means you all look into each others rooms. The fact that the restaurant and bar are also poolside, it means that the noise travels into the room, and it went on till 2am on a couple of nights, which is not great. The rooms are fairly modern, as are the bathrooms. They just lack a little bit of space. There's no where to unpack your clothes, and no where to leave a case open. We had a Superior room, which had a pool facing balcony. The balcony was a nice touch, although there's nothing to see except the pool area and the other rooms. There were very close too, so if you were chatting on your balcony, the people next door were literally right next to you. We never ate in the restaurant, but everyone we spoke to said the food was really good. The hotel offer a meal package which is quiet good value. WE didn't take it, as there are so many good restaurants to go to in town. We did eat in the restaurant for breakfast. The food was ok, but not brilliant. There was not enough fresh fruit for my liking, only melon. There was an awful lot od sweet things and cakes. I don't think I've ever seen so much on a buffet before. The best asset this hotel has is its staff. they are so friendly and so helpful. the only one we didn't find this way was the barman in the evening. he could be a little frosty, but the rest of the staff couldn't do enough for you. Last but not least, there's the pool area. The sunbeams are big and comfy, and the pool is a great size for splashing around or a serious swim. However, the beds are so close together, there's no way you could move them to alter their direction, and you do feel like your neighbour is sharing your bed at times. We avoided the pool area, as we wanted to explore the many beautiful beaches the island has to offer, which is good, as I think the hotel would struggle to accommodate every guest if they all wanted to sit by the pool at the same time. Overall, we had an enjoyable stay at La Piscine Art. I'm not sure we would stay there again, as we prefer to be nearer to the beach. But if you want to be close to town, and have no issue with being a little enclosed, I think it's definitely worth staying here.

Had a wonderful weeks stay at La Piscine Hotel in Skiathos from the moment we arrived we were taken to the beautiful bar area for a welcome drink of our choice. Then escorted to our room where a bootle wine and a platter of fruit awaited us. The rooms are comfortable with the most comfortable huge bed. The room has a mini bar, we had 2 bath towel changes per day and rooms are thoroughly cleaned every day. The breakfast is the best I have ever experienced in Greece, with a large range of breads, pastries and cakes to choose from, a number of fruits and a hot buffet which included British sausages, bacon, fried eggs, grilled tomatoes, beans and mushrooms. The staff at the hotel are super friendly and go out of their way to make sure everything is perfect for you, a big thank you to Elena on reception for her recommendations and helping with bookings. I definitely recommend this hotel for a stay on the island. This was our 3rd time and we found staying in the town so convenient. The Piscine Art Hotel is situated just a ten minute walk to the hub of the town and to bus stop no1, which takes you to the many beautiful beaches of skiathos. At night it is the town that you will want to be, as it comes to life with the many excellent restaurants and bars and numerous shops selling unique and beautiful things.

Had a fantastic week at this hotel, staff amazing, so friendly and welcoming. Rooms beautiful, spotlessly clean. Breakfast at the hotel was perfect served at the Crazy Cow, lots of choice, faultless! I can not recommend La Piscine enough, looking forward to returning. Please just one thing use spoons rather than plastic stirrers at breakfast, there is to much plastic waste in the world. However once I mention this to one of the waiters at breakfast he brought me a spoon everyday after, well done for listening to me and please do the same for everyone.
