does anybody have any experience of the Stellina hotel or know of its whereabouts? I'm just going through the list of accommodations in Skiathos town on this site and came across this gorgeous looking hotel. We usually go for something much more basic and Greek but thought it would be worth pricing it up. Again, prices aren't displayed yet for Aug '17 but I may email them.
Anybody heard of the hotel?

Thank you for that quick reply BOb. I wasn't aware that TC did the Stellina. The reason I haven't seen it on their website is probably because I'm looking for next August and according to TA, they no longer have the contract with Thomas Cook. At least I know such a hotel exists lol. Although We've done a few diy holidays I always like to do my research rather than just book somewhere that I've seen advertised on line.

This hotel is on the road coming away from the airport approx 3 minutes away, almost opposite the Skiathos football club, it would probably take a good 15 minutes to walk into town/harbour area.
They have quite a decent sized swimming pool for a town hotel. I believe the rooms are fairly basic as is breakfast.

Hi Kathos, thanks for that. it looks like quite an impressive hotel by Greek standards or is it nothing like the website in reality?

It isn't a bad looking hotel but it is 3* and no more. I know one of the blocks was refurbed a few years ago but not sure about the other. I would suggest you go on TripAdvisor or look to see if it is on Booking.com to read the hotel reviews to get a good overall picture. The owner is known to be somewhat grumpy  I would say if you were to book it to try for a room overlooking the pool. |

I've ruled this one out. Not much about the reviews.

Hi islandlady, always best to have a good scout around before booking. Hope you get sorted with alternative accommodation.
