Hotel Adriani is situated in Naxos Town (Hora), the capital and port of Naxos Island. Naxos Town is a lovely town where the Old Town, Portara (Apollon temple) and the sea front are the main attractions. The hotel is located at a very convenient spot, close to the port, to the town centre, to the sea and to the most of the amenities
The old Town is divided into two parts; Bourgos neighborhood and Kastro (Castle) neighborhood. Although the city walls have all disappeared, the inner walls of the Kastro remain. Most of the Kastros' current residents claim descent from the Venetians, and many of their grandparents' tombstones in the 13th century Catholic Cathedral boast grand titles.
North to the port, the ancient causeway stretches out to the islet of Palatia and the unfinished Temple of Apollo which begun in 520BC. The Portara, a massive lintel of the temple platform, a lone gateway, is now used as a dramatic frame for sunset photos.
