Hotel Fiona

Top choice in Symi


Offering Symi's best-value accommodation, this simple but charming family-run hotel perches on the edge of Horio. Its simple but attractive rooms, kitted out with blue and white furniture, have balconies that have truly astonishing views across the harbour. There's a pleasant breakfast area downstairs and a peaceful courtyard. Simple, if adequate, buffet breakfast.

The delightful owners are elderly, so it's a little get-on-with-it-yourself experience. Turn left at the top of Kali Strata.
