SYROS

With an advantageous location in the center of the Aegean Sea, Syros has amazing scenery that combines Cycladic and Venetian architecture.
Just imagine whitewashed houses blending with colorful mansions, neoclassical buildings, and big churches! Dreamy, right?

Ermoupolis, the capital town of Syros, is an architectural gem!
Brightly-hued houses, structures showcasing neoclassic architecture, imposing orthodox and charming catholic churches, and magnificent squares create the most postcard-like scenery!
A visit to Miaouli Square is enough to understand how enchanting the architecture that characterizes the island's capital is.
On the square, you will find the impressive Town Hall, designed by the praised architect Ernst Ziller, while a few meters further on stands the Apollo Theatre, a stunning theatre that is described by many as "the most beautiful theatre in the world".

Hiking the hill above Ermoupoli, you’ll find Ano Syros, the Catholic Center of Syros. While Ermoupolis boasts a Venetian beauty, Ano Syros is a typical Cycladic settlement with whitewashed houses and narrow alleys.
Ano Syros looks like it has been made for strolls! Wander on its narrow little lanes, visit the Renaissance Cathedral of Saint George and marvel at the breathtaking view of Ermoupolis, and let the place bewitch you!

The island’s coastline is fringed with beautiful beaches, with the most popular ones located on the southern side. The best seashores are Kini, Galissa, Delfini, and Dellagratsia.

Syros is also a favorite destination for Easter holidays, as wonderful events take place thanks to the existence of both Orthodox and Catholics on the island, who celebrate the great holiday at the same time as a sign of community unity.
Every spring, Ermoupolis bursts with life, as it is the center of the Easter festivities on the island. People from all over the world go there to experience authentic traditions, including treats, gospel chanting in the island’s beautiful churches, holy processions, religious hymns, and feasts.

The combination of Cycladic atmosphere with Venetian architecture and the coexistence of Orthodox and Catholic elements to such an extent does not exist on any other island of the Cyclades. That is why spending some days in Syros is a unique experience worth gifting yourself with at some point in your life!

In Syros, you will discover amazing places to stay for all tastes and preferences, including traditional houses, luxurious suites with private pools and charming boutique hotels.
The hotels are usually located in the neoclassical alleys of Ermoupolis or at the island's most popular beaches, such as Galissas and Megas Gialos.

Some of the most popular hotels are:
• Blue Harmony • Good Life Greece Eco Villas • Aristide • 1901 Hermoupolis Maison Rooms
