Poseidonion Grand Hotel

If you’re considering dinner at the Poseidonion, think twice. I had reserved seating up front for Friday night. On Thursday morning, I asked to move the reservation to that evening, only to be told nothing was available up front—just in the back. Fair enough, I said, we’ll keep our original Friday reservation up front. This was confirmed. Fast forward to Friday night: we arrive, only to be walked straight to the back. When I pushed back and said our reservation was at the front, the staff casually informed me that hotel guests get priority seating. This so-called “policy” was never mentioned before—probably because it doesn’t exist and was invented on the spot. No apology, no attempt to make it right, just indifference. We’ve eaten here every year, multiple times a year, and I can honestly say this was the final straw. The food is fine but nothing special, and the service is consistently weak. They rely entirely on their name and location, not on actually taking care of guests. Completely unacceptable. There are far better restaurants on the island that treat their customers with respect. This place has lost my business for good.

Wonderful stay in Spetses! We had a great room with sea view that we enjoyed a lot. The breakfast was excellent too. Location is unparalleled, the best you can have in Spetses. All in all, the vibe of the hotel is very unique and so is the decoration and art all around. We appreciated the concierge services and felt very welcome. We will definitely be back!

One of the many “used to be great and now it’s the ghost of what it was” The staff was nice but it’s very noisy because of the motorboats right on the front rooms. The food at the restaurant is horrible. The food at the bar is better but my girlfriend got poisoned two out of two times. If you can, in Spetses you should rent a villa or go to other hotels until they fix this one.

We had an amazing stay at the Poseidonion Grand Hotel—it’s easily one of the most memorable places we've ever stayed. The hotel itself is absolutely beautiful, with its classic architecture, elegant interiors, and picture-perfect views of the sea. It really captures the charm of Spetses in the best possible way. What stood out even more was the service. Every single person we interacted with was warm, welcoming, and genuinely went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable and well looked after. It felt like they truly cared. The ambience of the entire property is so peaceful and refined—you can’t help but slow down and enjoy every moment. Whether it was relaxing on the terrace with a coffee or strolling through the gardens, everything felt thoughtful and serene. The location is ideal too—right in Dapia, so you're close to the port, shops, restaurants, and local sights. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a luxurious, relaxing, and authentic Greek island experience. Can’t wait to

The hotel has a historical background of nearly 110 years , which means a lot for a Greek island. Unfortunately you can not lean on your long history you have to prove on your experience and life style you provide. I am disappointed. There is a management lack which is a major point. Our entry and check in period, a room with partial sea view, if you go it to balcony and lean:)) , which is not possible . The management accepted and changed us to a different room, ok, but in a new building near by, acceptable in those circumstances. I will share some photos of the places within the hotel which is not acceptable with a so long hx and class.

Unfortunately this hotel is very much not a 5 star experience. It is beautiful and well-located but the service is deeply lacking and the noise unbearable in the partial sea view rooms. Loud music every night until 1am and on our final night there was an unbelievably loud event happening right under our window which the hotel did not advise us of when booking. We were offered an alternative room (also very loud) or a free drink / room service, neither were acceptable. If you want to stay at this hotel I would recommend the garden view rooms but it would be better to stay elsewhere and save your money.
