This is a beautiful hotel made up of a number of traditional houses, some of which I believe are split into apartment type suites. We stayed in the 2 bed, 2 bath Mansion house which had probably the very best view in the entire island from it's huge high terrace. Oia is known as the place for sunset photos but, actually, Fira has the better sunset view and this can be proved from my attached photos! The staff here are second to none. They were,without exception, friendly, polite, efficient, cheerful and very hard working. The cleaners kept everything spotlessly clean. Water was provided free of charge ( you can't drink the tap water) and the moment you asked for it, it was brought to you. Room service was excellent - always on time, the food was lovely and the breakfasts were simply superb and brought to our private terrace every morning at the time requested. There was only one negative for me - there was a restaurant just above and next to our terrace which played music all day when I would have preferred peace and quiet but, luckily, it didn't go on late into the night so didn't disturb our sleep. There was a nice pool and bar area and excellent air conditioning. Things to be aware of - this is effectively a 5 star hotel but is a little different from most other properties of that nature - for example, the bathrooms are a little old fashioned but this is in keeping with the traditional style of the properties. There weren't things like a coffee machine, shower caps or a mini bar. However, there was a full size fridge, a kettle and instant coffee, tea bags and milk. Also nice toiletries. The other thing that visitors to Santorini need to be aware of is that you can't throw toilet paper down the toilets so have to be prepared to use a bin. To my view, all of the above are minor issues which are completely made up for by the fantastic service, staff, views, food, etc of this lovely hotel.
