Sophia Castle View

I had an unforgettable stay at this hotel, largely thanks to the outstanding service from the manager, Valandis. From the moment we arrived, Valandis went above and beyond to make sure we felt welcomed and comfortable. His attention to detail and genuine warmth made a big difference in our experience. The view from our room was absolutely stunning—a perfect backdrop to our relaxing getaway. Valandis and his team truly made this stay memorable. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone looking for fantastic service, with Valandis leading an incredible team, and views that are simply unbeatable!

Amazing view, cozy atmosphere and very clean!!

Sofia Castle View is an absolute gem, located just steps away from the famous castle in Oia. What I loved the most about this place is the abundance of windows—every wall except one has a window, making the room incredibly bright and airy. You can watch both the sunrise and sunset from the comfort of your room, and two sides of the room offer stunning views of the sea. It’s also perfectly positioned right above Oia’s iconic sunset spot. While others gather below to catch the sunset, you can enjoy the same breathtaking view from your room, soaking in the atmosphere while still having your own private space. The room itself is beautifully designed in soft white and green tones, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere. It’s the perfect spot for taking photos, and the memories made here will be unforgettable. I absolutely loved my stay here!

We loved our stay here. The room itself was even nicer than the photos, which is always a pleasant surprise. There was even a little kitchen, which we didn't end up using, but that would have been nice for preparing a light snack or breakfast. We appreciated the bottle of wine and water in the fridge. Favorite part was the view from the window right into the plunge pool that overlooks the caldera. The plunge pool itself was great with more privacy than most of the other pools we saw around Oia since it was tucked away a bit. Our host was provided a lot of suggestions, but the best part was arranging a 30 minute window for us to take photos from a private look-out area at one of their sister properties. This is where you get the famous view of the 3 blue domes. It was almost worth for this alone since we didn't have to wait in the long long line to get a shot like everyone else.

Everything was great. Just to note though that the picture of the blue domes are taken at a different location and not from the room. The room itself is located right by the actual old Castle, which is a popular spot that people gather to see the sunset.

Great stay in an amazing location, with an amazing view!

VALANDIS was an excellent host, very nice, polite, professional, informative person!!!!! He was quick to respond to our questions and was promptly willing and available when we called for him on whatsapp. The location of the place is beautiful for the sunset and amazing view of Oia. This place is great for walking distance to all the famous spots to visit in Oia. The walking is very easy and doable compared to other difficult locations in Oia due to the walking distance. If you are looking for a great location in Oia, this is the place to be. Some reviews say it's not quiet, but it actually is very quiet and safe. Anywhere in Oia or Santorini is busy during the sunset because that's what people come here for. So if you want to come for the good Oia experience, come to THIS LOCATION. Valandis will treat you like family.

Location perfect for sunset and pretty views. It gets busy and crowded since the property is located near photogenic attractions.
