Philippion Boutique Hotel

The hotel is in walking distance of the town which is a plus. The room and the hotel reception really lack any appeal of any kind. They need to have a good look at other hotels and get some ideas as to how to make their space more appealing. The rooms are spacious but just lack any style whatsoever, the dining room is like a canteen style layout. The pool is lovely although the loungers are all in the shade and not on the side where you have the sun so you need to move these each morning should you wish some time relaxing in the sun. It has so much potential but needs restyling to bring it current and more marketable.

Location & breakfast very good, staff also very friendly, however the hotel room did not provide mineral water for guest. Room and bathroom a bit small. Due to the weather and cause the ferry cancelled for whole day,we lost 1 night stay in Santorini and very disappointed that the hotel refused to refund us.

The place is very good and recommend to everybody. Literally 10 minutes from the village, market near by. All the place is like the pictures nothing less!! Very good worth every penny.

Great property... location is great as you can walk to Fira

Reception were great.Easy check in.Breakfast was good.

The hotel is outside the town center, feel isolated and remote

Beautifully decorated in lobby. It’s on a main road. A 10 min walk to grocery store and 15 to Fira center. The pool area is pretty small & it’s at the back of the hotel but very pretty with nice lounge beds and umbrellas. Pool is not heated but I don’t think any are in Santorini as we asked other people we met & none of theirs were heated. There is a small bar where you can also get light afternoon munchies & snacks. My biggest concern with this hotel was the description of the room, we had upgraded to a ‘Seaview suite’ When we walked through our door we were initially a little disappointed, through the main door you enter a foyer or entrance area - from there is a double glass door to get to the sea view - it’s not actually in the room. Then there’s a bedroom which was fine, nice, a large bathroom, shower & a changing area which had a kettle & fridge. So when we were in our bedroom we had a glass block window & no sea view unless we went out of the bedroom door into the foyer area, then we had the sea view. This set up constitutes suite.!!! Also the room is on ground level. The Staff were all very very nice, especially Olsee the bar, snack & pool guy. Breakfast was served til 10 and it was sufficient, after 9 days of the same exact choice every day it was a bit much. Saying all of this the price of the hotel was very reasonable, so we couldn’t complain it’s just when your expecting a seaview suite & you don’t get either it’s a little tough.

- excellent European/Greek breakfast, freshly just out of oven pastry! cheese/meat, tomato, cucumber, fruit, egg, coffee, juice, toast - nice bed. haven't slept so tight for a while during this trip - SPACIOUS parking space, this is rarely find in Santorini where some place like Oia 10 cars are fighting on 1 tiny spot

Hotel was clean and good but it was out of town , nearby were lots of construction and you feel your hotel is miles and miles far from city. the receptionist was like a robot and whatever we asked his answer was I can not do it , everythind is managed from the company and I can not do!!!!

The hotel reception is extremely helpful. We arrived very late because of the unusual ferry schedule and they arranged the off-hours arrival transfer and let us hang around the lobby for our very late next day departure. This may not sound much but the entire island’s culture is to close the reception at 11pm. This is one of the very few hotels on the island that is open for 24 hours. Also the place is very clean, the breakfast is delicious and staff is very polite and helpful. The hotel is located within 2 minutes of walk from the city center and there is a large supermarket nearby. Our room had the white domed ceiling that gives the taste of the signature architecture. Overall I would recommend this friendly and clean place to all who would want a pleasant stay.
