9.2/10 Wonderful! (135 reviews)
The staff was superb! They were very friendly and helpful. The property itself needs a deep cleaning and significant repairs. It looks and feels absolutely nothing like the photos on Expedia. We arrived expecting a charming, clean, four star boutique hotel as advertised, and instead found a grubby one or two star property… it was a very disappointing end to a great holiday. Heads up: The noise from the bars and restaurants next to the hotel lasts well into the night — bring noise cancelling earplugs.

The hotel is in a great location. Good restaurants and shopping areas are a walking distance. Going to points of interests is easy. It is walkable. The train station is also nearby. The front desk and hotel staff were friendly, helpful and very professional. Breakfast was great. We received very good service! Our room was spacious, comfortable and clean. We will definitely stay here in our next trip to Athens!

Highly recommend the Fira-Oia walk - long with climbs but worth it

Wear sneakers because the cobblestones are really sharp & rough.

Get the caldera/sea view-it is priceless.

having a hotel/apartment room along the caldera makes for amazing sunsets.. however, be prepared for the hike that comes with being there.
