La propiedad — ANTHOULIS STUDIOS
Anthoulis Studios is a no-fuss, family-run set of apartments in Psalidi, a quiet strip east of Kos Town. The vibe is low-key Aegean: whitewashed walls, a dusty-blue pool, and a small bar where the owner might bring you a homemade dessert. There is no lift, and the rooms are basic but spotless — this suits travellers who value a calm base, not resort frills. Standing in the lobby, you smell sunscreen and hear cicadas; the only decision is whether to walk 10 minutes to the beach or stay by the pool.
Crónicas de Kos
Kos Town was settled in the 11th century BC and grew as a healing centre under Hippocrates in the 5th century BC. The 14th-century Castle of the Knights dominates the harbour, built by the Hospitaller order on Byzantine foundations, and the plane tree of Hippocrates still shades the main square. An earthquake levelled the town in 1933, so Italian architects rebuilt it in wide, rationalist boulevards — a strange but pleasant Italianate feel. Today it is a busy ferry port and tourist hub, balancing its archaeological riches with bars and tavernas that stay open late.

Guía completa de Kos →Los mejores meses
May, June and September: low humidity, sea temperatures around 22–24°C, and daytime highs of 27°C. Crowds are thin enough to walk into the Asklepieion without queuing, yet enough tavernas are open to keep evenings lively.
Peak / Festival Surge
July and August: temperatures hit 33°C, and the island swells with package tourists, especially from the UK, Germany and the Nordic countries. Hotel prices for a 3-star studio such as Anthoulis roughly double from June rates, and the Kos Hippocrates Festival (July–August) brings open-air theatre and concerts to the castle.
La temporada del hombro
Late May and early October offer rates 30–40% lower than peak, with daytime highs of 25–27°C and noticeably fewer people. The sea is still swimmable in October, though some beach bars close mid-month.
Tiempo y embalaje
A dry northerly wind, the meltemi, can gust up to 6 Beaufort in July, especially in the afternoons. Pack a light windbreaker for evenings on the balcony and a reusable water bottle — tap water is drinkable but tastes of chlorine, so buy bottled at the minimarket two blocks away.
Briefing en vivo de la ciudad — Kos
- The Kos town port renovation, completed in late 2025, has cleared the main pedestrian walkway and added new shaded seating for ferry passengers — expect less dust around the harbour than previous summers.
- A new direct bus from Kos Town to the Asklepieion now runs every 30 minutes in July 2026 (instead of hourly), cutting the previous 40-minute wait.
- The main Eleftherios Venizelos Street is repaved as of June, but several side streets near the municipal market still have open trenches for water-pipe replacement — watch your step after dark.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to ANTHOULIS STUDIOS, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a higher floor, ideally first or second floor, away from the main road to reduce street noise. These rooms also benefit from better light and sea glimpses.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid ground-floor rooms close to the reception or staircase; they tend to get foot traffic noise and less privacy. Also skip rooms facing the back alley where deliveries or bins are.
Best views
Rooms on the upper floors with a front-facing orientation have the best chance of a partial sea view or at least a broad street view towards the harbour. Side or rear rooms look onto neighbouring buildings.
Quietest floors
First and second floors are the quietest, as they are above street level and away from common areas.
🔊 Noise notes
Kos town centre streets are busy with scooters, delivery vans and pedestrians until late evening. The hotel is on a main road, so expect traffic noise from early morning. Ground floor hears reception and entry door sounds.
Insider tips
1) Request a room on the first or second floor when booking – the studios don't have lifts, so these avoid the worst of the street noise. 2) Pack earplugs for light sleepers as the thin walls and street activity can carry sound even on upper floors.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Principales atracciones en Kos
💡 Don't bother with the overpriced tourist shops around it. Instead, grab a coffee from the nearby café on Plateia Platanou and sit on the steps watching the locals walk by.
💡 The castle grounds are free to enter but the interior isn't. Go at sunset for the best light, and climb the short ramp just inside the main gate for a panoramic photo without the ticket.
💡 Visit early morning before the heat and crowds. The shaded paths near the plane trees give you clear views of the mosaic floors without paying for the adjacent museum.
💡 If you're here the first Sunday, arrive just before 10:00 when it opens — it's small and fills up fast. The garden courtyard has nice shade and a few benches. Otherwise, the museum is not worth the full price unless you're very keen.
💡 Take the local bus from Kos Town central station (€1.80, runs every 30 mins) to Marmari village, then walk 15 mins north. Bring your own food and water — the tavernas are 10 mins inland.
