Chrysalis Boutique - Adults Only

We spent an unusual holiday at Chrysalis: 2 weeks in which we were looked after, in which every need was met immediately and we received all possible help in finding beaches, restaurants or activities. And always with a smile. Thank you Marina and Anna for the many good tips, thank you Lukas, who served us our breakfast every morning and good drinks in the evening. Other hotels on Astypalea may be more luxurious, but the Chrysalis has something special: people who treat their guests like family. Many thanks also to Maria, who created this refuge!

A beautiful hotel with great design and lay out, ensuring all rooms and terraces profit from the fantastic view. We loved the lighting, the view from the terrace, the exceptionally clean rooms with lovely bedding and towels. The privacy, discretion and quiet were really appreciated, and it was also lovely not to feel like we had to rush out to vacate the room for cleaning (and often it wasn’t easy leaving the luxury of that view with coffee and reading on the terrace!) A couple suggestions - some more dairy free and gluten free options and fruit variety for breakfast would be great (know it can be tricky getting supplies to the islands but there are some very well stocked supermarkets). The early breakfast for an early flight departure for example, which is a lovely touch, was gluten based so couldn’t eat it. The shutters were missing with blinds instead so we missed the blackout effect, but hung a towel up so that was fine. Smells travelled through the air con between rooms, was usually ok, but some unpleasant perfumes in our first couple days which fortunately departed. The dark bathroom was tricky at first but we got used to it! The daily dessert offered in the afternoon was a nice touch and we felt bad declining everyday, but was either too sugary for us or with gluten/cow’s milk. We would much prefer some complimentary fruit or a daily bottle still/sparkling water in the fridge/room. We thank Anna, Marina and Nikita on reception for helping us have such a wonderful, healthy and relaxing holiday. Particular thanks to Anna for helping with the hire car and very good advice for a nervous driver/passenger on the cliff roads and tracks of the island!) And Nikita’s map was really useful thanks. And also a big thank you to the cleaning staff and room service team, the cleaning really was exceptional and what a luxury having breakfast delivered to our terrace every morning. Thanks to Marina and all the team for such a lovely stay, and apologies for delay with review - today on a dark, cold wintery day in UK we definitely wish we were back there now!

We have been to Chrysalis for a second time and it was as magical as our first stay 4 years ago. Everybody is super lovely and helpful, Marina and her team are just amazing!! The view out of the balcony is breathtaking, amazing breakfast. Rooms super clean and nice interior. We celebrated our wedding at Chrysalis and had our absolutely dream wedding!!!

First time in Astypalea .. no connection to the hotel .. so here is my honest view :- A very well managed small hotel with a beautiful terrace looking at Chora bay. The room was comfortable and well designed .. staff was very attentive and polite .. Breakfast is beautiful and you have a choice every day to order from the night before ! .. First time I felt the need to tip hotel staff and I been to many Greek islands ! Mbravo to the staff .. Overall a wonderful experience !

Amazing boutique hotel with super friendly staff located in a strategic area with best view possible to the Chora and the see. Spacious room with all amenities and beautiful terrace. The manager, Marina, is very helpful in respond to all the request always with a smile and the good suggestion. The rest of the staff is kind and the welcome at the arrival and every day is a gift!

The staff are both friendly and professional. The room was spacious and tastefully presented, with a beautiful view. The position of the hotel means that, while it is convenient for the Chora and local transport, it is quiet. We had a relaxing stay

I can't say enough wonderful things about this charming place! We stayed for 7 nights, and the team made us feel extremely welcome and like treasured friends. Anna, Marina and Niko at the front desk were always so welcoming from the day we arrived, and helped to arrange absolutely anything we needed... and the afternoon treats were always a highlight! Breakfasts were fresh and delicious, what a luxury to eat in our room, overlooking the glorious bay. Thank you to Lucas for your cocktails, we enjoyed them all :) The room itself was stylish, with comfortable beds and a lovely, warm space. Also, a dark facecloth to remove makeup at the end of the day was a brilliant inclusion. Thanks again to the entire hotel team for such a warm reception and for all the recommendations to make our trip that much more special. This was our 2nd trip to Astypalea, but I know now where we'll be staying from now on... I'll be booking our next trip very soon! ＜3 Dan & Jules

Where do I even begin to describe the unparalleled experience we had at the Chrysalis Boutique Hotel in Astypalaia? Saved from an unfortunate experience at another establishment, Chrysalis turned our holiday from a disaster into a dream. From the moment we stepped foot into this oasis, we were met with warmth and hospitality beyond compare. Their generosity was exemplary; in honor of my partner's 40th birthday, they surprised us with an upgrade to a breathtaking junior suite. The room was exquisite, offering a harmony of luxury and comfort, and the views were nothing short of spectacular - an absolute feast for the eyes. Every morning started with a gastronomic delight. Breakfast at Chrysalis is a meal to remember, with the freshest ingredients that seemed to have been kissed by the Aegean sun. You have the choice of having it served in your room or on their terrace that offers an unrivaled panoramic view of the blue sea - a sight that continues to be etched in our hearts. Chrysalis made our holiday extra special by booking us a table at their sister restaurant, Ducato, located in the heart of the town. There, we savored one of the best meals on the island. And to top it off, a delightful birthday cake was arranged for my partner. The personal touches didn't go unnoticed. But the true highlight of our stay was Marina, the hotel manager. Her elegance, grace, and effervescence permeate the entire hotel. She embodies the very essence of Greek hospitality, always going the extra mile to ensure guests feel welcomed and cherished. To Marina and the wonderful team at Chrysalis Boutique Hotel, we cannot thank you enough for salvaging our holiday and turning it into a memorable celebration. Your attention to detail, professionalism, and genuine care made our stay a magical experience. To anyone considering a stay in Astypalaia, I cannot recommend Chrysalis Boutique Hotel enough. This establishment exudes charm, sophistication, and a warm ambiance that guarantees an unforgettable stay. We are already eagerly looking forward to our next visit!
