Bourtzi Boutique Hotel

Skiathos Town


All straight lines and creative touches, the swish Bourtzi brings a splash of boutique flair to down-to-earth Skiathos Town, on upper Papadiamanti. Stripped-back contemporary rooms rise around an inviting pool; some are decorated in upbeat statement colours. Warmly attentive staff deliver welcome cocktails, and there's a stylish bar.
