Helliniko Hotel

Hotel Helliniko offered a very comfortable, convenient, and enjoyable hotel experience in Parikia, Paros! This was my first ever visit to Paros (as a solo traveller nonetheless) and was extremely happy with everything from the rooms to the excellent hospitality. The owner, Manos, was extremely kind and helpful from check-in all the way through check-out. I even got a complimentary upgrade to a room with balcony access! Every time I left or came back for the day, Manos greeted me with a smile and chatted with me about my daily activities. He also gave me amazing recommendations for restaurants, beaches, etc--which I appreciated very much as a solo traveler figuring out what to do around the island. You will always have a friend in Manos and Hotel Hellinko, and I cannot wait to return. Also, a note to heat sensitive travelers: it is customary that in Greece the air conditioning only works when the key is lodged in the key fob inside the room. Thus, do not expect the AC to be running while you are outside. I found the easiest way to keep the room cool was to leave the bathroom window open, crack the glass door, and close the curtains to maintain air flow and also keep the strong sun out of the room. 5-stars all around for Manos and his beautiul hotel, you will not regret staying here!

Lovely hotel! Firstly, we were greeted on arrival with a glass of water. Considering we are from a colder climate this was definitely appreciated. Hotel area: The courtyard is gorgeous and filled my instagram story especially with the gorgeous garden which is given a lot of love and care. Apartment: We stayed in a studio apartment with a balcony looking onto white buildings with blue doors and windows, trees of fruit & beautiful flowers. The room was a twin but spacious with lockers, a wardrobe, vanity unit and bench. There was a kitchen area with sink and fridge (drinks were ice cold). Power in the shower was strong but could also change it to lighter. People who work in the hotel: We received such a warm welcome (with fresh cold drinking water). We were told about ways to commute around the island, different restaurants, etc. He also told us to come back if we needed anything else, which we did which was so helpful. We were brought to our room and given a quick run through of how everything worked. My presumption is this is a family run hotel and I honestly can say we were made to feel so at home. Location: The hotel is a 2 min walk to a beach and there’s another beach (with beach bars) 4/5 min walk away. The port is a 7 min walk away. There are restaurants and shops all over the place, one after the other. The first restaurant/cafe is a 1 min walk away. There is a gym on the same street as the hotel. Location is brilliant. Thank you so much for a wonderful Greek experience.

We had the best time at Hotel Helliniko. The hotel is located 1-2 mins walk to Livadia beach and many of the beach restaurants are quite close by. It is also quite close to the port around 15 mins walking and the Parikia centre. The hospitality of Manos was lovely and we will definitely stay here when we are back! The sitting area looks beautiful where one can have their lunch or dinner if you do a takeaway. Room was also quite spacious. Hope to return sometime in the near future!!

My sister and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Helliniko Hotel. It was a quick 15 minute walk from the ferry and there were plenty of great restaurants within walking distance. The staff and environment there were our favorite part of the stay. Everyone was friendly and gave great advice for our trip to Paros. The room was very clean and safe. I would definitely stay here again!

We stayed at the studio apartmants for 3 nights . Everything was perfect and clean the hosts were super friendly and helpful during the whole stay . They made us feel welcomed and told us a lot about the island places to avoid and to visit for a better and more enjoyable stay . I recommend staying there 100%.

The ONLY place to stay on Paros!! My home away from home! I am back in my country a week now and already feel homesick for Hotel Helliniko. I stayed (as I have many times before) in a Studio Room which was quiet, and well appointed including a refrigerator and stove. My bed was super comfortable with a brand new mattress and it was all immaculately clean. I ate my breakfast on my private patio overlooking fruit trees. It is the owner, Manos, along with his assistant who truly made my stay a memorable experience. Everyone is made to feel very welcome and I particularly enjoyed Manos’ sense of humour. It is relatively close to both beaches and to the Port area where we normally ate. However there are excellent tavernas and a grocery shop and a bakery close by. I truly cannot recommend this hotel more highly - and I cannot wait to return! Thank you Manos and family. You are simply the best!!!
