Location
Krinos Suites Hotel revives the faded glamour of the iconic building of "Krinos", a landmark in Batsi from the late 19th to the late 20th century, in view of its imposing presence and unique amalgamation of western elements and local cycladic architectural style. The renovation project of the aged structure was successfully approved and awarded financial sponsorship from a leading government investment program.

Batsi, once merely a picturesque fishing village in the coastal southwest part of the island, has evolved through the years into a beautifully maintained traditional settlement. Stone houses, pebble-paved paths, lush vegetation and natural springs compose the idyllic scenery.
The hotel is located in the centre of the village, just 20 meters from the beach and 500 meters from the newly built marina. It overlooks the island of Kea, whereas the rest of the horizon is reigned by the infinite blue of the Aegean Sea.
Access
The island of Andros is very close to Athens. Though it doesn’t host an airport, access to the island is quick and easy from the port of Rafina, in the northeast of Athens. Rafina is also situated very close to the Athens International Airport. You can reach the port both from the Airport and the centre of the city using taxis or the many bus routes available. www.ktelattikis.gr
The journey from Rafina to the main port of Andros, Gavrio, is a two-hour trip by ferry. There are also high-speed ferries available, cutting down the duration of the trip to one hour. Gavrio is the first port of call for all vessels departing from the busy port of Rafina with Mykonos Island as their final destination.
Krinos Suites Hotel, located in the centre of Batsi, is a twenty-minute car ride from the port of Gavrio. There is a regular bus service between Gavrio and Batsi, its timetable usually adjusted to accommodate the travellers arriving by ferry.
Andros has everyday connections from/to Rafina. It is also well connected with other popular destinations (Tinos, Mykonos and Syros) and is an ideal place to start your exploration of the Cyclades (island hopping). Nearby islands include picturesque Tinos and glamorous Mykonos.
The exclusive marina for harbouring sailing and speed boats in Andros is also located in Batsi.
Local transport is ensured by the island’s bus network (KTEL), with frequent service between the villages, while taxis are also available. If you want to rent a car or motorbike, you will find plenty of rental offices in Gavrio, Batsi and Chora.
