Both Brits were discovered on Wednesday and are unrelated, according to Greek media.

The son of the 71-year-old British woman went to find his mother in the hotel room where they were staying and found her dead.

He immediately notified the hotel workers who in turn informed the authorities.

A few hours later, in a different hotel in Hersonissos, another tourist was found dead.
