Tripplo's verdict, based on guest reviews
Tripplo’s analysis · Updated 10 October 2026 · How we review hotels
Liostasi Hotel & Suites caters to travellers seeking a high-scoring boutique property with panoramic vistas. Reviews on both Booking.com and Google are exceptional. Located on a hillside, it offers minimalist Cycladic design with private terraces, a holistic spa, and a complimentary port shuttle. Guests benefit from free parking, an outdoor pool, and an exceptional breakfast. A potential drawback is the steep uphill walk required to return from the main village, alongside limited room availability during the peak summer season.
Guests score it 9.5 out of 10 — the average across the 8 hotels we list on Ios is 9.5.
What Guests Loved
- The hotel is positioned on a gentle slope, offering unobstructed views of the sea and sunset while remaining within walking distance of Ios Chora's traditional stone-paved streets and architecture.
- Guest rooms feature a refined white-and-wood aesthetic characteristic of the islands, complemented by private balconies or patios that provide a secluded space for morning coffee or evening relaxation.
Things to Consider
- While the elevated position ensures impressive views, the return walk from the village center involves an incline that might prove taxing for some guests or those with limited mobility.
- Due to its boutique scale and high reputation, the property often reaches full capacity months in advance, requiring travelers to plan their stay well ahead of the summer season.
