Antonia Hotel
4.2/551 Reviews
Fira
Lovely hotel that is very central in Fira. We stayed on the hotel side of Antonia and loved the decor of the room. We appreciated that they had shutters outside to help keep the noise and light of the room. The room was nicely appointed with many lights and we enjoyed the decor. The bed and pillows were very comfy and we appreciated that there was a coffee/tea station and a mini fridge in the room. The room was large enough for the two of us and there was a nice small balcony outside with a small table and two chairs. The bathroom shower had great pressure and plenty of hot water. The bed only had one sheet on it but there was a comforter and the temperature was easy to control. There was slippers available in the room which were good for the cold washroom floor. The hotel rooms have smart TVs that are easy to connect to for Disney+ or Netflix but you have to install an application if you'd like to screencast. The hotel has some nice common areas to hang out including two pool areas and a space by reception. The pools were closed when we came in March but it was also a little cool so we did not mind. They should be cleaned and ready to go by the summer. We really enjoyed the space by reception where there are lots of seats and benches to sit and hang out with other guests, or in our case the rest of our family. Anytime you are in the common area the staff will offer to make you a coffee or tea which was very nice of them. The staff are sincere and welcoming. Once we checked in they asked if we had some time or if we would want to go directly to our rooms. We said we would have time and they brought out a map of Santorini and marked down the places we could check out during our stay. The hotel also offers a good tour of the island for 40 Euros per person which includes 7 stops including Oia, red sand beach, a black sand beach and the monestary. We had 5 people in our group and did our own tour using a car rental company nearby but would consider the hotel's tour if we were just a couple. The hotel staff were helpful and responsive even before we came - they assisted us with a booking error I had made and we resolved it quickly over the phone and a short email. Transport to/from the hotel from the airport is easy because there is a bus station nearby and it costs 2 euros per person and the bus station is about a 5 minute walk from the hotel. The bus wasn't running too frequently during our stay on Santorini and if that is the case during your stay you can book the hotel's shuttle service - they have a large comfy van and charge 7 Euros per person. The alternative is a taxi and you are at the will of the driver for the ~10 minute drive and could be charged 40-50 from what we hear. The hotel does not offer breakfast or room service but there are many good restaurants nearby. The hotel recommended a few that were within a five minute walk of the hotel and the one we tried was lovely. There is a grocery store about 100 m from the hotel that has pretty much everything and there's a bakery near the Fira Main Square. Souvenirs can also be bought at the Fira Main Square and they probably have the best prices we saw in Santorini for souvenirs! Overall, it was a great stay and because we stayed in March we got an awesome price. The room we had was nice, quiet and comfy during our stay.
Captain Manolis

Ilyssion Holidays Hotel
4.1/528 Reviews
The hotel is clean and well maintained and the staff are helpful and friendly. We didn't eat in the bar so I can't comment on the food but it looked good and plentiful if a little overpriced! Be aware though that almost EVERYTHING is an extra so budget quite a bit more if you want to use sunbeds, air conditioning or wifi. We didn't as the costs were outrageous. We had a Superior Studio apartment and the beds were very comfortable and the room cleaned daily. We didn't find any of the 'complimentary' toiletries which they advertise although we had a lovely but empty liquid soap dispenser! The shower is really good and would be better if the shower screen had been bigger. They do supply a squeegee for you to remove all the water that sprays all over the bathroom floor. The shower has a fixed head and can't be adjusted and there is a switchable hand shower head for squirting your 'bits'. A good hair dryer is provided. The biggest deal-breaker for us was that in no way was it a fully equipped self-catering apartment. There is NO KETTLE, NO TOASTER and very little of anything else in the way of kitchen equipment. A coffee peculator is provided which is useless (and I stress useless) for making tea. If you want to self-cater, the very reason we booked this hotel, don't bother booking here. You will be very disappointed. If you want to eat out there are many very good restaurants within very short walking distance. You'll be lucky to get breakfast before 10:30 AM though. If you are a light sleeper then think about what it would be like sleeping within one meter of your fridge compressor turning on and off all night long. The balcony is far from private and ours had only a view of an orange tree which was sprayed with chemicals (I assume) every couple of days! It was right next to the walkway to all the other apartments which is great if you want to meet everyone while you're trying to eat your boiled egg and no toast breakfast washed down with lukewarm tea! All in all we had a great time in Rhodes and this hotel could so easily be made to be perfect but sadly I really think they are more interested in taking money than providing a comfortable self-catering holiday experience. Still gave them an above average score though for all the good reasons stated above but we won't be staying there again for all the many bad reasons. Be sure to check out the Royal bar just round the corner. The food is wonderful, the owner and staff are fantastic and the prices reasonable. A bit further on is the San Allotte restaurant which is equally good (maybe better) but more expensive.
New York Hotel
4/528 Reviews
The hotel is situated in the centre of the new town area close to harbour and lots restaurants and bars. It is within easy walking distance of bus station and rhodes old town. The room are basic but nice. Its a family run hotel and the father manager made us feel welcome. The breakfast is basic but then the price for hotel is cheap. I was more than happy with everything about hotel. Downside is street noise but is is situated in busy area. For the money paid its well worth it and I would not think twice about returning. If you are looking for cheap hotel with basic breakfast located close to everything then check out price.
Central Hostel Oia
4.3/59 Reviews
Oia
Nice place to stay. Manager was friendly, and the place is comfortable especially with the A/C. When I was there, the temperature was really high and wildfires were breaking out in neighbouring islands - so many of us stayed in the dorm in the afternoons. The price of the hostel bed is very expensive but on Santorini one don't have a choice - so in my view this is the cost effective place for solo travellers. Overall the place is nice and comfortable so I think it is a good choice. recommended and book in advance !
Fira Backpackers Place
4/529 Reviews
Fira
Cheap, very good location (just near to the Fira Bus Station), friendly staff. I could leave my luggage before check in time, even after checking out! I spent a night here, met some nice travelers, unfortunately they played music loudly until almost midnight. But it's okay as they stopped right at midnight so I could sleep well eventually. Overall, the hostel was good, although the room was kinda old (also the air cond, but it worked well). For me, it was just worth the price.
Matogianni Hotel
4.3/544 Reviews
My husband and I stayed at the Matogianni hotel for one night on a stopover in Mykonos on our way to Naxos. I booked directly on their website, which I found gives you more specific room choices than third party booking sites, plus we were able to pay on arrival rather than in advance. The hotel itself is right in the heart of Mykonos town, but as it’s off a small side street, you get none of the noise from the bars and shopping areas nearby. We opted for a balcony room, which was actually a very decent size for the price we paid, and considering the location. The beds were comfortable, though my main complaint (as others have mentioned in their reviews) is the wet-room style shower. I felt like we had to almost sweep the water into the drain, as there wasn’t a natural slope to the floor. For one night this would be fine, but I fear if I needed to wash my hair (leaving water on for an extended time) that I could have flooded the whole room. One thing to keep in mind with this hotel is that it is right in the center of Mykonos town, meaning that cars/transfer vehicles can’t get near it. So although I had booked a transfer to the hotel from the airport, our driver had to drop us off at the top of the hill on the edge of town, and we had to walk downhill with our luggage. Thankfully we only had to do the downhill journey, as the next day we caught the sea bus to the new port, which was a flat walk towards the old port - just something to keep in mind if you are staying in the center of town with luggage to carry. Overall, I would definitely stay here again, as the price and location can’t be beat!
Marine Congo Hotel
4.1/518 Reviews
A lovely hotel with very friendly staff - as you'd expect for a 2 star it isn't the best place in Greece but it's perfect for those who expect to be out and about constantly. We used it as a place to sleep and have a few dirnks whilst getting ready and it was great: the staff couldn't have been more helpful giving us a key fob so we could come in late at night, offering us free drinks and booking us taxis
Magas Hotel
4.2/583 Reviews
Silver Beach
4.2/55 Reviews
This has to be the best value hotel on Patmos. Staying in this hotel gives you the use of all the facilities of the luxury hotel Patmos Atkis next door. The rooms in Silver beach hotel are very clean and simple with balconies. The shower facilities are typically Greek with a hand-held shower head. However my room had a room safe ( not in my sisters room, next door). All rooms have a minibar fridge which is empty “for Covid reasons”. My room had a hair dryer although I think that had been left in by accident. We had garden view rather than sea view. All rooms have air-conditioning. The best thing is the use of Patmos Atkis a really nice hotel. You have the most fabulous breakfast here. Beach beds should be €10 extra per day for two, but when I went to pay they said they were complementary that week as the hotel was not full. Also you can use the swimming pool which is an incredible 50metre pool. Virtually no one uses the pool so it is brilliant if you are a swimmer. The bay is lovely and both hotels are right on the beach at Grikos Bay. The biggest negative about Grikos is that there is no convenience store. So nowhere to buy even a bottle of water or an ice cream or some beer/wine. There are a few tavernas which all seemed quite good. There are some local walks and a bus service to other parts of the island. Come here for a lazy beach holiday or to swim!
