Guest Reviews
- Ileana (8/5): - This hotel is in a great spot, the rooms are clean, and the pool is nice, but the rooms are a bit weird. The bathroom is right by the door, and the bed is up on a second level with low, arched ceilings that are a bit dangerous.
- Young (8/5): - Good!
- Vittorio (10/5): - The Astir Thira Hotel was just on the outskirts of town. This was nice because it made for easier access in and out of town. It was a very short 3-5 minute walk. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We arrived before check-in and our room was ready for us which made it very convenient for us. The room was pleasantly clean and we had a nice view of the ocean off of our balcony. The only downside was that the main street separated the hotel from the balcony which made the room a little noisy during the day and early night. Later on at night it was relatively quiet. The room was somewhat small but this seems to be a theme when traveling in Greece. There was only a small hanging area for clothing and nowhere to put your luggage or other clothing. The bathroom area had no shelving for your toiletries and only two hooks for your towels. They would do themselves a favor if they installed more shelving in the bathroom and bedroom and hooks on the backside of the bathroom door. They also need a do not disturb sign for the rooms. The pool and surrounding area was very well maintained. Breakfast was included and was good. Staff was very friendly and always had a warm greeting. For the ladies who like to pack a hairdryer, there is no need to pack one if you stay here. My wife said the hairdryer they have is the absolute best she has ever used and is nothing short of amazing. We would easily stay here again.
- Timothy (8/5): - The pool is great. The receptionist was really helpful and the breakfast was decent.
- Andrea (10/5): - Very clean! Great pool, delicious breakfast! Very helpful staff. The location is perfect! I would definitely stay here again.
- ivana (10/5): - Beautiful place lovely people clean and walkable to surrounding area
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Beautiful place lovely people clean and walkable to surrounding area
- Gina (10/5): - The front desk employees Alma and Anna were amazing. They were so helpful and kind. The rooms were spotless and the pool was clean and relaxing. We would recommend to everyone
- Samir (8/5): Great - Overall satisfied. Good room with view of caldera, but noisy street. Fantastic service by all staff.
- Daniel (10/5): - Excellent costumer service! Good breakfast
- Paul (8/5): Convenient location - Nice location walking distance to town, but also on a main, busy and sometimes noisy road. Very responsive staff. Nice swimming pool. Room and bathroom (especially the tub/shower) smaller than we were expecting for the price.
- Noah (10/5): - Very cute place. 5 min walk from the bus stop and even closer to shops and restaurants. The staff was very helpful and the breakfast was really good. Comfy bed but the shower had issues draining. Beautiful view of the volcano.
- Barbara (10/5): Great stay! - We had a pleasant stay at Astir Thira. Rooms are clean and it has a beautiful pool. It’s a 10-15 mins walk to Fira, which is a nice walk with the view of the caldera.
- Olivier (8/5): - Recommended!
- Antonio (8/5): - Clean and convenient
- Carmen (10/5): - The pool area was beautiful. The rooms were spacious and were decorated with upscale class. The staff was friendly and accommodating!
- NEERA (6/5): Pleasant hotel but vey noisy room - The ratings are based on the location of the room allocated to me.. The hotel itself is good, it has a pleasant staff and is conveniently located Close to stores and restaurants. I am a solo traveler but booked a more expensive large triple room with one double bed and one twin. Rooms with this layout were on the ground floor and since most hotels here did not have elevators or bell boys I had to choose this because I did not want to hassle with carrying the luggage. I was shocked when I was given Room number 3, right next to the Reception and breakfast area. Outside my front door and bathroom were stairs going upstairs and also stairs going downstairs to the rooms around the pool area. Also the door to one of the wings going to rooms such as mine was near my front door. The WC was also there. Everyone going to their rooms upstairs or downstairs would pass by my room. People also kept their bags/ suitcases near my front door if they were checking out later in the day. There was plenty of activity. My bathroom had a very small shower area with a flimsy plastic curtain and water would overflow. I asked if there was another room available and I was shown room number 2. Wonderful room with a view of the swimming pool outside the front door and it had a tub. The receptionist checked with the owners if she could give me this room but it was denied because it was held for a couple who were arriving the next day and they had stayed here previously.
- Pamela (8/5): - Very clean. Staff was friendly
- Verified traveler (8/5): - The young person who checked us in was great and even carried one of our bags up the stairs. We had a very nice room with a wonderful sunset view, though on a very busy street. The room was spacious, very clean and comfortable. We had to leave before breakfast and we’re not offered any kind of Takeaway option. Also, still using individual toiletry items, and no water conservation sign for towels.
- Shirley (8/5): - The property was literally 5 mins walk into the popular town of Mykonos, where all the restaurant and stores are. The staff qre very helpful and friendly. The breakfast was great. The kids loved the pool cause it stayed open till 9p. The decor is a bit old fashion, to what you would see all over the island. The bathroom is very tight. I
- Lori (10/5): - Fantastic hotel! Great value for the price!
- David (10/5): - Very nice stay just outside of Fira town, which meant it was a bit quieter than the main town area. The staff were so incredibly kind and accommodating. Wonderful stay.
- Michael (10/5): - The staff is spectacular! The rooms were very clean and spacious! Would highly recommend!
- Melanie (6/5): - We only stayed here one night before leaving Santorini. The property is unique as the rooms are tastefully vintage and has a lot of charm. The staff was very helpful and welcoming. The pool area is really nice. The breakfast area was clean but we left before breakfast was served. However the staff was kind enough to prepare sandwiches for our early departure. The only complaint we had was our room faces the very busy street and only thoroughfare in Santorini, it was really busy and loud. The area around the hotel is safe but not very pretty with minimal views and there are no other properties around it. The property is conveniently located a 10 min walk to lots of shopping and restaurants, a 5 min walk to grocery shopping and pharmacy. It met our needs for 1 night but I probably wouldn’t stay there again.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Great location on the caldera edge, just out of Fira so it was a bit less busy but only a 5 minute walk into town. Sunrise and sunset views. The staff were lovely.
- Lauren (8/5): - This property was just outside the city of Fira which was an easy 10 min walk from the hotel. The property was on the older side, however, it had everything we needed for our stay.
- Crystal (8/5): - It's an older hotel, but the rooms were clean and had what we needed. Our balcony had a great view of the Caldera and was perfect for sitting out, having a coffee and taking in the view. The ladies at reception were lovely. We were able to check in early and leave our bags on the day we were leaving. The pool was great, especially after walking around in the heat. It's about a 5 minute walk to the bus station in Fira and close to all the shops and restaurants.
- shirin (10/5): - very friendly and helpful recipient, best location and excellent breakfast also very clean.
- Caitlin (10/5): - We had a wonderful stay! All of the staff were incredibly helpful and friendly, and always ready to point us in the right direction. The breakfast was fairly basic but had a wide selection. The hotel is also conveniently located and it was quite easy to walk to most places we wanted to visit!
- Mark (10/5): - Great customer service!! Very close to all as activities.
- KANTILAL (10/5): - Nice hotel, very helpful staff, arrange last minute rental car,free breakfast, suggestion and booking for tours, 5 minutes walk from main bus stop, main square, center spot in santorini personally i like hotel, stayed in one bed room, bathroom is not spacious, but overall good .
- Srikarthikeya (10/5): - The Hostess Ana was super helpful she helped us book transfers , reserve restaurants, help book tours, the breakfast buffet was good but same food every day. It’s close to Fira market (downtown) so right in the center of everything. Good place to stay for the price.
- James Stephen (10/5): - The rooms for families are right on the pool deck. Made for easy pool use, with the room adjacent for the kids to use the bathroom and grab snacks. Staff was very friendly.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Cute Hotel - This is a great option for Santorini on a budget. It’s a 10 minute walk from the center of town and the pool is a plus. We were able to check in early and they arranged transportation for us.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Super clean and friendly property! The whole staff was helpful and accommodating, especially Anna who helped us with several hiccups. The rooms were comfortable, the pool was a delight, and it was just far enough away from the center of the city to be private and quiet. I highly recommend this sweet sanctuary.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - First time in Santorini the staff were friendly, kind genuine and ready to help, which made things easy when arriving to new place. Location is great. The room is clean however not much amnesties offered.
- Amanda (10/5): - We stayed at the Astir Thira for 3 nights and absolutely loved it! The staff was very nice and welcoming, gave us recommendations for things to do/see, and the included breakfast was a huge plus. The location is amazing: close to everything you'd want to see in Fira without all of the noise of staying in the city. I would definitely stay here again!
- Verified traveler (2/5): - The entire place smelled like sewer and the water from the sink and the shower was salt water. Not happy with this property at all and am not happy with Orbitz.
- ward (8/5): Overall great - Excellent service and food, spotless. Only comment rooms very small and hard bed
- Johnny (8/5): - The hotel is in a great location close to Thira town : Caldera and the buses station. The staff were lovely and so helpful. The room was very comfortable. Amazing value would definitely go back.
- Nash (10/5): - Great location. Very helpful staff. Nice breakfast
- manish (8/5): Location is amazing! - It was a very clean and comfortable place. Pool is too good. The only downside was the room and beds are a bit small.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Pros: (1) Excellent location, ~5 minutes walk along busy path to Fira Bus terminal, and everything else Fira has to offer. (3) Quiet location. (3) Great breakfast. (4) Nice and clean room. (5) Excellent staff. (6) Nice swimming pool - gets sun until 5pm in early July, Cons: (1) Bathroom water pressure low. (2) Faucet water salty. Overall: Excellent. We will stay again and will recommend to anyone.
- Dionicia (8/5): Santorini sunset - The hotel is in a good relatively quiet location and is clean and comfortable. Staff helpful especially Angeliki. Swimming pool was clean and refreshing. An added bonus is the amazing sunset which can be viewed from some balcony rooms, and also immediately across the road.
- Fahad (10/5): - - Spacious room - Great customer service - Excellent location - bus station, shopping and food really close - Great variety for breakfast - Cleanliness of the rooms can be improved.
- Goreti (10/5): - very quiet , this hotel is just 2m walk from the center
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Would prefer to have a hot water pot for tea and coffee located in the room.
- Mike (8/5): Great place to stay for the price. - The hotel itself is located on a fairly busy road and walking distance to the town of Fira. The supermarket is only a 5 min. walk which is nice. The staff was very helpful in suggesting things to do, places to eat. Room was just OK, we just slept there so it was what we expected. Breakfast was very convenient and could use a bit more variety. Pool was very nice.
- Rena (8/5): Convenient boutique hotel near central Fira - The staff was very helpful and friendly, and location was convenient. It’s about a 5 minute walk to shops, restaurants, and the bus station. The front of the hotel has an ocean view, but this isn’t one of the bustling terraced hotels in central Fira. Our room (#20–poolside) was clean and comfortable. The pool was appealing but not heated when we were there October 4-6. Breakfast was good. Overall we enjoyed our stay very much.
- Craig (10/5): - The hotel is conveniently located close to the centre of Fira. The staff ware lovely and extremely helpful when our ferry was delayed 2 days. The room was nice and the bed comfortable, the breakfast was excellent. Definitely no complaints, we would highly recommended.
- Heather (10/5): This hotel feels like home - This hotel is amazing. The staff are incredibly friendly, rooms are clean and spacious and the beds are very comfortable. Located just south of Fira, it's a five minute walk to the city center so the location is perfect and quiet. Highly recommend.
- Sylvia (10/5): Great stay in Santorini - Our stay was great. Location of the hotel was very close to the Old town. There were decent options for breakfast and our kids loved the pool.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Cheaper Hotel Close to Central Fira - The service at Astir Thira is very friendly and helpful. They went out of their way to help us out when we needed it. I cannot say nice enough things about the staff there. Breakfast is small but decent. If you have a super early flight (8am), like us, there will be coffee and cake at minimum. Pool is decent sized and there were always chairs available. The room is a decent size. Air conditioner only works when all doors and windows are closed (wish we had known this earlier). Fridge didn't work well. Double bed is really two twin beds that kept splitting. Nice balcony to sit on after long day and star gaze. The hotel is a 5 minute walk north into Fira. There's a supermarket on the way to buy water and/or beer to keep in the hotel if you so please. The fruit is also fresh there. These are pretty much a necessity as your are walking up and down hills all day. 40 minute walk to Imervogli from the hotel. Because the hotel is on the main road, excursion buses will pick you up directly from there. Noise is not a factor, especially since you'll want to sleep with the doors and windows closed for the A/C to work. We were in a room overlooking the pool and not at the front but the hotel isn't that big and we couldn't hear anything from outside. Would stay there again as it is cheaper relative to staying on the cliff in Fira but you can easily walk into Fira. Isn't luxurious but good enough.
- C (10/5): - Nice hotel. Rooms a little outdated but all clean and comfortable. Great staff. Just a walk away from center of town. Great places to eat all around
- Lisa (10/5): Love love the hotel - Very comfortable and lovely hotel! Friendly staff and very welcoming. Love the pool. Close to everything! Thank you
- anthony (8/5): Quality economy hotel - Clean, efficient hotel in rather an unattractive location a few blocks from the main square. Lacks elevator to pool level. Good breakfasts. Responsive and polite service.
