Iapetos is a completely new hotel which has just opened in
Yialos, the harbour area of Symi. It is called a hotel village
because the accommodation takes the form of 25 neo-classical
buildings set in a large semi-tropical garden and surrounding
a central swimming pool. The buildings contain 19 maisonettes
and six studios, each air-conditioned, with full self-catering
facilities, satellite TV and either balcony or terrace. General
hotel facilities include wireless internet access, a bar,
a sun terrace with complimentary sun loungers, towels and
parasols in addition to the pool, which is a considerable
rarity on Symi (there are only two others on the island!).
The hotel’s location is as convenient as possible,
just 50 yards from the main square of Symi and 100 yards
from the harbourside with its shops and tavernas. Stays
at the hotel are for a minimum of 3 nights and are on a
bed & breakfast basis.
