Francesco's is the most popular backpacker accommodation in all of Ios, and with good reason, just take a look at the sunset view from our terrace bar at your right, that's what you could be enjoying your cocktails to each evening during your stay in Ios.

An amazingly gorgeous hostel with stunning views overlooking Gialos Port. Francesco's is a classy happening place for backpackers in the heart of party-til-dawn-Ios-Town . It is a 10 minute walk from the main beach and there are also six other beaches within comfortable walking distance. There is no need to have a long, dark walk home at night after your bar hopping adventures.

We are a family run hostel where everybody is made to feel at home and all your needs are catered to. From the time you arrive to the time you depart you become part of the Francescos family.
There is an air-conditioned terrace bar with satellite television and breakfast caf? which overlooks the port, beach, and one of the best sunset views on the island, as you can see in the photo. All guests are invited for a free welcome drink and a chance to meet fellow travelers in our friendly bar to start their first night on Ios. None of our guests ever pay the cover charge at the famous Ios Blue Note, one of the most popular clubs on the island.

Some of the amenities which are offered at Francesco's include 24-hour hot water, a new reception area with internet cafe, tourist information and information on boat and plane tickets etc. , and all guests are encouraged to make use of our free safety deposit boxes. We also have an extensive travelers book exchange and no curfew or lock outs to disrupt your night or day.

There are double, triple, and quad rooms available for up to 150 people. All rooms have been newly renovated. Most have private bathrooms and there are also rooms available with shared facilities. All private rooms have air conditioning, televisions and telephones. A number of rooms have private balconies with ocean views. There are also dorm beds available for solo travelers. All rooms are serviced daily as we pride ourselves on how spotlessly clean our accommodation is, we realize what a difference this makes to a guests stay.

On your day of checkout we offer free left luggage and free showers if you decide to go to the beach and have an afternoon or night ferry to catch.

After you make your booking with us all you have to do is either e mail or call us with your boat details and our driver Matthew will pick you up from the boat free of charge, and also drop you off when you are leaving, which is also for free.

So don't waste any time guys and girls get booking and we hope to see you during the summer. And please remember book early for July and August as this is an extremely busy period
