We booked this hotel for the close proximity to the ferry and it exceeded our expectations in every way! The staff were wonderful, the food too pool was a perfect relax in the heat, dinner was delicious. We planned on going to town but loved it so much we stayed there the whole time! We only had one night before our 8am ferry. I would highly recommend!

A beautiful, peaceful stay

Megaron Hotel is a truly elegant, classical place, everything felt well cared for. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The rooftop restaurant offers a lovely view, and the small pool there is a perfect spot to relax. The room was clean, the bed very comfortable and breakfest was amazing.

The property is immaculate and all employees were fabulous. The room was immaculate. Was looking forward to using the pool until saw all the pigeons drinking from it and washing their tushes in it. Also, the fitness room is not kept air conditioned so my workout was brutal … had to finish early because way too hot. Rather unfortunate for the price paid.
