Alana Pension

The location is unbeatable! Right in the heart of Mykonos town. That being said, it is a little tricky to locate the apartments and it is not accessible by car. If you are traveling with lots of luggage (like I was) it is hard to take it up the steep narrow stairway to the rooms on the top floor. This “hotel” is a glorified AirBnB at best. No reception, no amenities and staff offsite- just 5 individual rooms in a building. Make sure to call before you arrive so you know what room you’re staying in. They leave the door unlocked and keys in the room for you. We did not have any staff member meet us to give keys and “check out” works the same way. I had no issues with this but didn’t realize it when booking and it was an unwelcome surprise. They have nowhere to store suitcases and they will say the travel agencies in town have space. I visited 3 different travel agencies near the Alana Pension, only to be told that none held suitcases. Only one place on Mykonos (by the port) will store them for you. This was the only real issue for our stay because we had 7 hours between check out and our flight. Most hotels will store luggage so this was a real bummer for us and headache to find a place. Overall, the rooms were lovely- small but quaint! It looked like something out of a movie! A truly authentic Greek experience. It was very clean too and we felt safe staying there for our first time in Mykonos. It’s a good deal for Mykonos and you are literally paying for the bare minimum.

We really enjoyed our stay at Alana Pension! Great value for money and great location - just stone throw away from the windmills and the bustling laneways of town. Our room was clean and had all the essentials. If you’re looking for a budget accommodation this is the place. Our room was on the third floor with 2 steep narrow sets of stairs to climb so keep this in mind when booking.

Nice place to stay in Mykonos. In Ann awesome location, you will feel like a local.

It's a bit hard to find without GPS, and no one on site to help tell you things, but it was a fantastic location and a nice porch with chairs. Bed was fine, water pressure was not, only 4 little rooms but the walls were thin. For the price, we got what we expected but it would have been nice to have someone to help us or give information. The mother hotel is an hour walk away...

Alana is a perfect hotel for the price and area. Absolutely spectacular spot. The owner is the sweetest person. We were contacted before our stay to go over some stuff, which is really thoughtful. They were easy to contact via email. They responded very quickly. They helped arranged transportation at a good cost. They even printed out our boarding passes for us. This hotel felt like a B&B. I will definitely be back!
