Telendos' only hotel is located a five-minute walk out of the village heading north – look out for the smart sugar-cube complex up on the hill. Inside, rooms are adequate, and there's a large lobby where guests come to relax and watch TV over a drink. There are additional separate apartments (same price but excludes breakfast).
