Great hotel. Awesome view of caldera from our room. Very helpful and friendly staff. Jinior suite was nice large room.

The view from our room is priceless. The location of Kastro Suites is ideal. Eventhough it is located steps away from the cable car entrance where the cruise people congregate everyday, our suite was far enough that it did not bother us. The breakfast was delicious and enough to fuel us until lunch time. We mostly appreciated Mario's superb service - he was very helpful from meeting us at the main street to helping us with our luggages at 3am!

Staff at kastro excellent. Nice roomy family suite - the bathroom is dated. Convenient location and the rooms insulated from any street noises. The biggest drawback are the crowds/lines for the cable car making it a challenge to get to the hotel depending on your timing.

Very professional and helpful staff especially Sophia and Marcos.

Great staff. Sofia was helpful. We were there in July and had a great time. The location is great.

Perfect location and perfect boutique hotel. The receptionist and Mario were very accommodating and wonderful help. The views from my room were spectacular! Definitely would stay again

We came as a family of 4, (not many families visiting Santorini), but Sophia and Mario were fantastic. Excellent location and amazing view. The Caldera suite had plenty of room for a family of 4.

Best view and service specially from Mario.

Kastro suites is an amazing place to stay. We enjoyed everything. Location is a 10, right in front of La caldera to see the best sunsets from your terrace. Service is great. Price is very reasonable. Sophia helped us with a situation. The location is perfect, very central in the heart of Fira, great home made breakfast. Everything was perfect. Increíble price for this amazing place.

We loved everything about our stay. Location was ideal. Excellent sunset views and the cable car was close. Staff were nice and helpful. The breakfast was excellent. Don’t hesitate to pick this property. You will not be disappointed.

Great and covenient location, super pleasant and helpful staff

We stayed there for 3 nights. While we were out of the hotel, their staff stole 300 euros from us. BEWARE!!!!!

Mario was an excellent host. We will be back!

Kastro Suites had a wonderful Cliff and Volcano view. The staff was very helpful and vame to pick us when we reached. Breakfast was amazing.l and ser ed outside tbe room with a great view.

Although the apartment is dated, it was exceptionally clean and the views are breathtaking... All the staff are wonderful and because of them, it made our stay extra special. I would definitely return here again.

Hotel is in a great location with friendly staff that try hard to please.

Bora was so helpful and they were very accommodating!! Great boutique hotel!!

Dealing and the whole staff wer very attentive and wonderful.

The view from our room was jaw dropping. Location is great, very central but pretty quiet at night (aside from the opening/closing of the restaurant above our room). The staff were extremely helpful with recommendations and arranging rides/activities. Overall a very lovely, peaceful, and stunning place!

Fantastic locations, amazing views, great staff.

First the location is amazing, right in the heart of Fira Second the staff are a wonderful family, they made us feel so welcome and were so attentive and supportive The suite was perfect for our family of four Highly recommend it, made our stay in Santorini so nice - we would sit out in the evenings and watch the people go by and the volcano isle and the beautiful Caldera

The staff here is absolutely amazing. The property itself is so beautiful with excellent views in a perfect location. Despina was the highlight, she is funny, friendly and knowledgeable about all things Santorini, we loved her. Marius, who served our Delia breakfast every day was attentive, kind and always willing to help us with whatever we needed. I highly recommend this property, could not have been happier with our choice.

Staff was extremely welcoming!! Location excellent. Property needs upkeep! Major renovation needed!!

Great and friendly staff, excellent views of the volcano and city . Nighttime views are breathtaking. Lots of stairs to climb , so be mindful of that ( very typical for that part of the city ) . Very close to shops, bars and restaurants. Would definitely book this place again.

Great view of volcano

The view of the volcano from Kastro Suites is amazing! The owner and staff are very friendly and helpful, providing an overview of the island and tips on how to get around. The property sits on the edge of the cliff and is right next to the shopping/bar area of Fira, making it really convenient. The breakfast was an incredible mix of meats, fruits, and cheeses. It was much better than advertised. It is a five minute walk to the bus station so getting around was very easy. I highly recommend Kastro Suites to anyone wanting a quiet getaway spot on busy Santorini.

The staff was very helpful and helped us book all our transfers and excursions.

Great hotel, wonderful view, very good breakfast!

Every part of this property is unique, magical. The view is breathtaking. The staff I cannot say enough good

Wonderful stay George was a wonderful host thankyou

Pleasant stay at Kastro Suites

Kastro Suites was a pleasant place to stay for 2 nights in Thira. The location was gteat and it was at the edge of the town so it had great views. The pool was lovely and the views from it fantastic of both the town and the caldera. We had the junior suite which was huge, clean and well equipped. George was very nice and helpful with booking transfers and recommendations. breakfast was sufficient and basic.

Amazing views and very friendly service

Located on the upper edge of Fira's center, the terraces not only grant you an amazing view over the caldera, but also over Fira itself. George and his team were very friendly and always helpful. They organized the airport-transfer, gave us important information about the island and booked boat- and squad-tours for us! The breakfast was very generous and the whole hotel is maintained very well. Our room was (typically) minimalistic, yet big and had everything we needed. Note that the pools is shared, but most of the time we had it for ourselves (it's bigger than it looks on the picture!)

Great view and convenient location in the city and hospitable

We really love the view from our room, the water, the volcano, the white house on side of the cliff.

Great Hotel

Great location, great views, friendly hosts. Will definitely go back.

The owner of Kastro Suites was very friendly, location was great and is near to bus station that easy for us to travel around. The breakfast provided was very good and my son enjoyed it.

UNBLOCKING VIEW OF CALDERA Perfect weekend getaway

Located in Fira easily accessible to the square Many cafe spots & restaurants nearby. An authentic Santorini traditional cave house vibes. The complimentary santo wine in my junior suite room was a bonus! Pleasant gesture. Thoughtful indeed :D Surprised by the sight of donkeys on evening and next morning, one of the best highlight! Despite being in low season, impressed by how George & housekeeper well handedly managed the entire apartments and George with his swift replies both on emails/WhatsApp. My first experience staying in Fira amongst all my others in Oia & Imerovigli previous visits since 2011. I would agree how other guests raved so much on the jacuzzi view via patio. An unblocking panoramic view of the volcanic rocks and caldera makes it worth the stay. A weekend getaway is sufficient for me in this space. If only the big pool in the bathroom comes with a stopper that’ll be more ideal for guests to enjoy a good soak indoors at their own comfort and privacy. Nonetheless Santorini is always worth a memory you’ll take home with regardless. Thank you Kastra suites !

Excellent hotel! ⭐⭐⭐ Amazing view 💫 Highly recommended place for everyone👌👍🙌 Satisfied customer here😍

Loved our 5 night stay Oct 2019

We absolutely loved our 5 nights at Kastro Suites. It was a truly beautiful place to stay, in an excellent location. George our main host was amazing! He always went above and beyond... Sharing insight into the island, seeing that our transportation and luggage were handled with ease, a scooter rental was extremely convenient with his help... I had the best pizza of my life in their restaurant above us while enjoying a perfect sunset, and oh-so yummy Greek yogurt with fruit and honey the level above that for breakfast, while watching donkeys and cruise passengers go by. I was worried the cable car would be a noisey or visual nuisance but it wasn't at all. It was entertaining to people watch all the photo-taking revelers from our peaceful retreat and we could always find our way "home" following signs to the cable car. The mattress was firm, my hubby didn't enjoy that, but perhaps they'll add mattress toppers as we suggested ? The room was so nice, I have a tonne of pics, haha. It was all just so gorgeous! Inside and out. We also enjoyed a sunset from their pool overlooking the caldera one late afternoon after walking all around beautiful Fira. 💝

absolutely loved it. Outstanding staff and scenery to die for!🇺🇾❤️ We highly recommend it!👍👍 and thank you so much George for all your help, you’re the best!❤️

Santorini

Thank you so much to George the manager,Micheal the driver that picked us up and Harris the young man that helped us with our luggage.We really enjoyed our time there and hope to get back there one day.Everything was fantastic.

Lovely hotel right among the shops , restaurants and Cable Car. Rooms are spacious and very clean, would highly recommend this hotel. The staff are lovely people who go out of there way to help. We got picked up at the airport to the hotel then a lovely gentleman who helped us with our suitcases was amazing, would not of been able to do it without him. The views are amazing. George the host looked after us with breakfast which was also fresh with great variety. George also helped with all the local information and a rental car. Never have I stayed anywhere where they make you feel like family. Would definitely stay here again.

Lovely hotel that I felt like had the best view! Easy access to the Main Street and all the shops. Nice breakfast and very nice staff.

Excellent location ,fantastic view,friendly staff.I recommend it

Kastro suites are situated right in the middle of bustling Thira, with food, site seeing & shopping right at your door. If there is a more friendly helpful host in all of Santorini (or the world for that matter) than Kastro's George then I've never met them. Nothing is too much trouble for George, he made a grrat time even better.

We really enjoyed our stay at Kastro, great location and friendly staff. I would definitely recommend to others.

Excellent greek style boutique hotel!... Had a great time, excellent location in Fira. George, the host, is fantastic, thanks a lot!

George was absolutely wonderful during my stay. The place was so beautiful! The view was amazing. I couldn’t fault anything. I’ll be staying here again when I return to Santorini for sure!!

Outstanding place with a privileged view of the caldera, also excellent location in Fira and service level is exceptional. Our hosts help us to move around the island in the easiest and more convenient way. Definitely recommended!!!

Great location with awesome views! Rooms are decent and cleaned everyday.

Location great walking distance to everything and fantastic view

Excellent

Excellent will stay there again and recommend to all my friends fantastic view friendly staff love Kastro and Santorini

Short stay

Great location

George is a very nice person. He reply your question by email very fast. Also arrange everything are perfect, such as the room and pick up arrangement. Mario and Mike are very nice and helpful too. I’m recommend this place for everyone.

It was quaint, incredible view and George provided excellent customer service. I wanted to stay there forever. It was a bit steamy in the bathroom. I never noticed a stench in June as some reviews stated.

Excellent Property, Service and Location!

Great experience; George is a great host and went the extra mile to accommodate my family on our early arrival; the best view of Fira, period.

Views are spectacular from the terrace, staff are attentive and friendly. Rooms are spacious and cool as cut into the rock. Overall a quaint place to stay a short walk into the town.

Stayed in a Junior Suite with Caldera View. The outdoor Jacuzzi was right in front of us thus it added to the mesmerising view of the Caldera and the Sea. Location of hotel is great, located right outside the cable car station on the uphill in Fira. George the property manager was very hospitable by explaining the different highlights of Santorini, transport, food and amenities around the hotel. Mario the staff was very diligent and friendly too. He met us at the main road to help us with our luggages to the hotel (slightly uphill with steps/ramps), down the steps to the hotel reception area and room for check-in. Check out was a breeze too with his help for the luggages. We would have been so dead without him as Santorini is all steps and hot! Overall it's a great place for the location, price factor, ocean view and the outstanding service this hotel provides!

Spectacular view. Amazing concierge service.

Excellent location, beautiful, convenient, in the heart of Fira. Spectacular view of the caldera and cliffs. Every morning we saw the donkeys walk past our windows. The manager, George, provided excellent personalized service taking care of all details (reservations, recommendations, practical info and even same day laundry!)

The property was in an amazing area with amazing views, there was a pool although it was very cold had some of the most amazing views. Wifi was very slow but not a huge deal as you’re on vacation! George was absolutely amazing and very welcoming

The location is close to everything, the view of the caldera is stunning, the best thing is how the service is provided and George was very helpful in everything he always make us feel like home!

George our host is outstanding! I recommend staying here you will not regret it!

A home away from home

Very caring staff and attentive to Maury our stay so special and comfortable. We enjoyed this glorious location and hotel.

Beautiful rooms, spectacular view, wonderful service, magic place!!

Personnel at the hotel provides world class customer service. The Waiters at the restaurant above, couldn't have been nicer or accommodating to my wife and my 6 month old Jackson. Like majority of hotels in Fira on cliffside: Mold in bathrooms around toilet and showers, rusted pipes providing brown water. Other than updating which ownership needs to do...The facility has a world class view and rooms are very accomodating to families. I easily could have fit 7 people in the suite.

The view is incredible. The staff took wonderful care of us and were friendly and attentive. Some of our favorite times were of having breakfast on our terrace as a family with the view and the breeze. The staff helped arrange transportation wherever we needed and were incredibly sweet to our 4 year old. It is a bit hard to find if you drive yourself, so I recommend getting a taxi from the airport.

Nice Location, Decent Hotel, Great View

Good location, nice, clean rooms. Unfortunately our room kept having no hot water three of the 6 nights we were there and nothing was done to make it right other than trying to fix it each night.

Convenient Location, Family Friendly

This hotel was amazing and is very centrally located - only a few minutes walk to Sultanahmet. Most things are situated around the Sultanahmet area (markets, blue mosque, hague sofia, palace, etc). The people were very friendly, and the breakfast buffet is great. I was very happy with our stay.

Not worth the money paid

Though the hotel has a nice view, overlooking the Caldera, the stay was not comfortable. The rooms had smell of the horses passing the path outside. Ours was a three room suite, though clean, had a musty unused smell and creaking beds. On the positive side, the hotel was well located, in midst of the Fira hub. The hotel manager George was very helpful. A simple refurbishment would brighten up the hotel.

Great location with good views, George was very helpful nothing was a problem.

Great place.

The view from our veranda (and the dunking pool) was absolutely amazing. We did not need to go anywhere else to view the caldera, the cliffs and the sunsets. The breakfast was excellent and our suite was very roomy. There were 3 bathrooms (2 showers). As with many Greek hotels, the showers could use an update. Also, the master bedroom bed was pretty hard and the frame was creaky, but we slept well anyway. The location was perfect, right in the middle of the town, easy walk to everywhere. Service was excellent. And who can complain about the donkeys? They added to the enjoyment and didn't bother us at all.

Location great but that's about it.

Location is great but that's about. Check in was a bit of struggle with the bags. The breakfast was pretty much nonexistent. All you get is some cold cuts, fruit, coffee and juice. The beds are hard. The place is not worth for the price you pay a night. Definitely overrated!

P E R F E C T

Kastro Suites is the perfect spot to stay in Santorini! Great location - you Are right in the centre of Fira and all the shops and bars were in walking distance. I felt safe my entire stay and our room was lovely and spacious. The hotel has an amazing view and is a great spot to watch the sunsets. The pool is quite small but perfect for a quick dip on a hot day. We always managed to find tanning spots and tended to be the only ones down there and that was in prime time JULY! George - the hotel manager - was extremely helpful and made sure our stay was perfect! I would highly recommend Kastro suites!

Great place! The view of the caldera is amazing

Our stay with kastro was great. The receptionist (or I believe he's the owner) was very nice. We came to breakfast 10 mins before closing so we just wanted coffee and juice. He insisted that we should eat and it doesn't bother him. Very nice staff as well. The place for 4 was pretty big so it was pretty cold other than that we had an amazing stay with kastro.

Spectacular view and excellent location!!

Kastro Suites is located in Fira only 5 mins walking distance from the centre and bus station. It is close to everything and also has amazing views into the caldera and cliffside. We stayed in the junior suite room for 3 nights. The room was very comfortable, clean and had all the necessary ameneties. The staff are very friendly and helpful. George explained the major sights and gave us a map and helped us plan our trip in Santorini. He even provided us recommendations of good restaurants around and they were great. Overall the service was impeccable. We couldn't have asked for a more pleasant stay and service. Highly recommend this place while you are in Santorini!!

Nice hotel in great location!

Lovely hotel and staff. George was so nice! He recommended restaurants and things to do. I will return to Kastro suites.
