Nefeli Hotel is undoubtedly the best that Skyros has to offer to the traveller who values luxurious accommodation, without screaming luxury and the usual impersonal environment.
After a total renovation, which was based mainly on natural-ecological materials, it is now classified as a four-star accommodation, providing its visitors with quality and hospitable accommodation in one of the most beautiful islands of Greece.
Nefeli Hotel is located at the entrance of Skyros country and consists of three different buildings, each of which houses rooms of different shapes and possibilities, such as standard, executive, suites, studio, traditional and antique.
More specifically, the building "Nefeli" It features modern rooms, with king-size beds, spacious marble bathrooms and crystal showers. Beyond the standard Rooms, you can choose between executive with a living room and terraces overlooking the country and the swimming pool, in the suites with two king-size beds (on the ground floor and the attic), living room, fireplace, two TVs and bathroom with jacuzzi, and on the best suite, the hotel's most impressive room at the highest point with extra amenities and views.
In the building "Demetrius" you can choose between seven apartments, faithful copies of the dog houses. They are structured in three levels and have all the required amenities, combining them harmoniously with the traditional character of the room. On the first level of the house there is the entrance and the bathroom (in some of them there is also a kitchen), on the second level there is the living room with sofas/beds and TV and on the third level there is the main bedroom with a double bed.

Nefeli Hotel Review
The most ambitious - and arguably the best - choice in town is Nefeli, designed and furnished in traditional Skyrian style. It actually consists of five buildings, each with different room arrangements and amenities. There are also some rooms with kitchen facilities. The bedrooms and bathrooms are spacious in size and well equipped. Most rooms have nice views. The large lobby on the ground floor is a welcoming space. Book in advance, as Nefeli is one of Skyros' favorite choices.
Benefits:
Nefeli Hotel, Chora, Skyros
There's a luxurious air about the Nefeli hotel, with an inviting pool in its centre, traditional architecture, rich landscaping and first-class amenities. What's surprising is that such a chic-looking property is also the most eco-friendly on the island, balancing sophistication and environment quite well.
The owner, Mr. Ioannis Evgenikos, has gone to great lengths to ensure that everything from construction materials to the local breakfast contribute to sustainable tourism. One part of the hotel consists of traditional Skyrian 'houses' that preserve the culture and décor of the island's homes. The other part boasts simple Cycladic architecture built with local materials, yet with lovely spacious interiors and modern (eco-friendly) bathrooms.
The property also collects rainwater in cisterns to water the plants. It fills the pool with refreshing seawater rather than drain the island's sweet water resources. The garden features local and endemic plants, while much of the fruits and vegetables come from the hotel's organic sister farm (with Skyrian horses!) outside the town. The farm produces delicious watermelon, honeydew melon, radishes, figs, pomegranates, quince, apricots and pears among other produce which you are likely to see at breakfast. Add to this local cheeses, meats, herbs and olive oil to make a regal feast that's as close to nature as possible. Some of the fruits even grow in the hotel's garden and end up on the breakfast table's jams as well.
In parallel, Nefeli has a modern recycling program for waste, and in a traditional yet effective method for recycling, any extra food is never thrown away but given to the farm animals.
Energy-wise, the hotel has solar heating and is in the process of creating a system for solar lighting. All bulbs are energy efficient, including LED technology, while appliances across the hotel have also been procured with energy savings in mind. Even the washers and dryers work at nights when electricity is abundant and costs less.
On a natural note, both the saltwater pool and the endemic trees on the property have attracted migrating birds, offering a wonderful natural sight to the hotel's guests (birdwatchers will also rejoice in the bird towers that were recently erected on the island). The hotel's management is also very helpful in informing guests about nature activities and alternative tourism around the island. To begin with, the hotel organizes stargazing nights in the clear skies of Skyros, especially when there are any celestial events such as eclipses or comets. They can arrange for guided hikes or even diving trips if asked in advance.
In short, the rooms of this green hotel all look new and offer all luxury amenities including natural toiletries, AC and flat-screen TV. Some have a fireplace for colder months, and there is also a room for the disabled. The management builds a warm relationship with its guests and is very welcoming in every respect. If you want to go eco and first class as well, the Nefeli and Skyros are an excellent choice.
