Some quick facts about
Francesco's Hotel & Hostel:

Francesco and Maria Plakiotis, our founders and general managers, are native to Ios, Greece, and will be happy to advise you on the hidden beauties of the island.

Both Lets Go and the Lonely Planet recommend us.

Each private room has a private bathroom with 24-hour hot water and a bedside phone. Many rooms are air-conditioned and have large balconies overlooking picturesque seascapes. We also offer dorm rooms.

Our reception houses an internet café, maps and tourist information, and free safety deposit boxes for each of the rooms.

Breakfast is from 9-2 and the bar opens again at 5pm every evening - the perfect time to watch the sunset and meet people to plan an evening at the clubs.

Lonely Planet Says:
"The well run Francescos, with good clean rooms, is near the center of things and is a lively meeting place for backpackers. The party spirit rules supreme. It has a busy bar and terrace with great views of the harbor."

Let's Go Says:
"The Godfather of accomodations in Ios, Francescos oversees a family of hotels. Standard rooms with private bath and air conditioning sit atop a convivial terrace bar."
