Santorini: Top Sights Day Trip, Wine Tasting, & Oia Sunset
"While it is a short walk down a steep hill to the entrance, the hotel is worth it! We arrived very late, around 11pm, because of a flight delay. I don't remember the name of the man at the desk, but he greeted us by name & helped us up the stairs with the luggage. There was a balcony that we sat on at night. The hotel offers a day tour of Santorini that is well worth the money! Our driver was Nick & he was knowledgeable & drove around those narrow streets with skill. He gave us plenty of time...
"The staff are friendly and nice. They were very helpful, providing information about city tours and helping to book a place for the boat cruise, which was amazing. Some of the cleaners kept coming into my room unexpectedly while I was relaxing. The rooms get cold; however, for some reason, the hot water didn't work at all, and the water was extremely cold for showering. I struggled with this, especially when the temperatures dropped. Finally, the Wi-Fi is extremely poor, and you cannot even use...
"We had a truly fantastic stay at Hotel Thira. It’s a wonderful property with wonderful staff - especially Maria who helped us a lot when we had issues our transfer. The rooms are spacious, have a fridge and lovely cold a/c. The pool and outdoor sitting area is lovely and the location is very close to town for great restaurants and sunset views. Would stay again, thank you Maria and Tony!"
"My room was quite spacious and the AC worked great. The bathroom was a great size and well-maintained. I had a nice little balcony, but it was very hot so I didn’t really use it other than to dry my swimsuit. The breakfast was sufficient and the eating area was quite nice. I felt I got a good value for the money I paid and the location was very close to the main shopping area."
