Kalisti Hotel & Suites

Breakfast: The breakfast is another advantage, with many guests appreciating the buffet's wide selection of high-quality items and attentive service.(based on 1 review)

stayed at Kalisti Hotel with high hopes given its central location in Fira, but unfortunately, the experience fell short in several key areas. To start, the room had some basic issues — the shower head was not working properly, and the walls were so thin that we could hear footsteps and conversations from the hallway, making restful sleep difficult. At check-in, we were told we could get complimentary water bottles from the bar, but when we went to the bar, they said water was actually charged. This bait-and-switch was frustrating. The room came with only four small bottles of water, which wasn’t sufficient, though thankfully there’s a supermarket conveniently located across the street. Breakfast is included and offers a variety, including in-room ordering. However, when we had breakfast delivered to one guest in the room and the rest of us ate downstairs, staff questioned us as if we were trying to game the system. The accusatory tone was off-putting and uncalled for. Another disappointment was the concierge service. We asked for recommendations on where to go jet skiing with our kids, and the front desk sent us to a beach without informing us that a boating license is required in Greece to operate jet skis. This oversight led to major disappointment and wasted time for our family. While the hotel is family-owned, the service didn’t feel especially warm or personal. The one major upside is the location — it’s excellent, right in the heart of town, walkable to great restaurants, shops, and nightlife. Overall, despite the great location and decent breakfast, I would not recommend Kalisti Hotel due to poor service, misleading information, and an unwelcoming atmosphere.

Beautiful Greek hotel. Within walking distance to Fira, the main town. We enjoyed this location- the tours leave from Fira, so it was easy to start and end a tour, then walk back to the hotel. We enjoyed the patio area for a happy hour drink. The room was spotless. Santorini had just opened for the season so it was very quiet at this hotel. We recommend the all day small group tour around the island, and also the boat tour to the volcano.
