Our unbiased review
The corridor down which we walk is lined with windows adorned with blue shutters, colourful window boxes and the paving under our feet is outlined with whitewash; it could be any street in Mykonos town but in reality, this corridor leads around the Mykonos Grand hotel and each window and door, on examination, contains not the interior of a house, but display cabinets filled with ornaments and gifts. What could have been a dark and tedious route under the hotel has been made somewhere pleasant to stroll, removing the mundane from the ordinary and making it innovative and special.
Luxury Mykonos hotels unbiased reviews from the Greek-advisor.com
This attitude covers the Mykonos Grand hotel rather well, as there is nothing mundane or ordinary about this hotel. It starts as you park in the car park and walk down to the entrance itself, passing through the doors into the opulent lobby with its plush seating, stunning marble floor and impressive sky-like ceiling; you begin to know that the Mykonos Grand hotel has been very aptly named, for everything is indeed, very grand.

The Mykonos Grand hotel, a member of the Small Luxury Hotels of the World, is the sister hotel to the Petasos beach hotel & spa, and they are managed by two brothers, each with massive hotel experience and their own unique approach to running their hotels. The Petasos beach hotel & spa is very friendly and a little laid back, where the Mykonos Grand hotel feels far more formal and the staff extremely professional, but instead of being stuffy and aloof, it still retains the welcoming atmosphere found at the Petasos beach hotel & spa – a fact that elevates the Mykonos Grand hotel over other Mykonian high-class hotels.

Guests can choose between three different room grades, Garden View, Sea View and Superior, all of which are extremely impressive. While not as ‘wide-awake’ as the rooms at the Petasos beach hotel & spa (no lime green’s found here), they are undoubtedly still of the same incredibly high quality. Marble floors keep you cool and in some rooms, one can find hand made stone carvings set in them giving an unusual focal point. Classic but modern, the rooms of Mykonos Grand hotel are full of beautiful pieces of furniture; just look for the stone-based lamps, each signed by the designer.

Thick, soft mattresses are hidden under fluffy duvets while light-as-air curtains or wave-like canopies enclose you inside this haven of rest. If you are staying in one of the Superior Rooms, you benefit not only from a large balcony and increased privacy, but from spectacular bathroom too. Inside you will find a steam room and a Jacuzzi and in case you feel a little too removed from reality, some of the wall-sized mirrors have LCD televisions built in so you can keep up with the latest developments around the world.
