Find 5-Star Hotels in Santorini

I first stayed at this hotel almost 11 years ago, and it was my top choice again for my second visit to Oia. Its location is fantastic, right at the entrance to Oia town, which means you can head out for a stroll daily and effectively avoid the crowds. Despite 11 years passing, nothing about the hotel feels outdated. The lobby is quite small, like a tiny library, and the public areas, guest rooms, and pool are still beautiful. The breakfast restaurant offers a great view, though it's a bit cramped. The food tastes pretty good, the room cleaning is excellent, and the staff are genuinely friendly!

The room facilities are OK, the bedding is comfortable, the swimming pool is heated but small, the breakfast is a menu, the taste and ingredients are good, and there are slight differences every day. There is a turndown service, and different bedtime gifts are given every day. The scenery is also nice, facing the volcano. The only downside is that there is a charge for carrying luggage, and it is a long way from the parking lot to the hotel. I have to climb up and down every day, which is not suitable for people with bad legs and feet.

This is my 2nd time at Astarte Suites and I had an amazing experience this time just like I did the first time. The views of the caldera here are incredible and their infinity pool is gorgeous. I booked the honeymoon suite and everything about it was great. I loved having a private balcony and a jacuzzi overlooking the beautiful outdoor view. Breakfast was top notch and there is always a person at concierge to help you with anything you need to book. The only thing you really have to consider is location - it is a little bit remote which not too much around however we did venture out to The Good Heart which is a restaurant you can get to on foot by the hotel and it was amazing. Other than that you need transportation everywhere. This was perfect for a beautiful intimate romantic and relaxing stay.

Unbelievable! Beyond the incredibly convenient location and delicious breakfast, I honestly don't even know where to begin with their service. 1. I planned this honeymoon well in advance and emailed the hotel early to arrange an airport transfer (€70 per trip). I even sent a gentle reminder the night before. Yet, upon our arrival, they had completely forgotten about us. I had to call the front desk, and only then did they scramble to arrange a driver. 2. In the afternoon, the Oia sun was too intense, so we returned to our room to relax and nap. To our shock, two Chinese children (a boy and a girl) appeared on our balcony, which, unsettlingly, had no railing. Our room had a glass door that, while closed, offered a clear view of the exterior. The little girl kept staring at us as we slept until my husband awoke, spotted them, and shooed them away. The boy was simply standing on our balcony, looking at the view. When I woke up and understood the situation, I immediately reported it to the front desk. They dismissively claimed the children were 'lost visitors,' which did little to reassure us and left us feeling incredibly unsafe. 3. That same day, after my complaint about the children, I repeatedly emphasized our need for a transfer to the pier the following day (to ensure they didn't forget again, like on arrival). We arranged room service breakfast for 7:30 AM and the transfer for 8:00 AM. The next morning, breakfast arrived 7 minutes late, forcing my husband to go down and chase it up, and leaving us to eat in a tremendous rush. At 7:53 AM, the front desk called to urge us to check out. Barely a moment later, an incredibly rude staff member used a master key to open our room to 'collect our luggage' – while I was still changing! We rushed out of the hotel, only to discover the transfer driver hadn't even arrived. We then had to wait another 10 minutes under the scorching sun, watching our two suitcases, while the hotel staff comfortably smoked in the shaded area. 4. To top off this string of issues, after we returned from lunch, we discovered that someone had used our bathroom – and disgustingly, left an unflushed toilet.

Service: I want to give a huge shout-out to the handsome Greek gentleman at the front desk. His service was meticulous and attentive; he helped us book a rental car, recommended boat tours, and suggested sightseeing routes. He also pre-ordered breakfast based on our preferences and even helped us load our luggage into the car when we left, as there was a rocky path that was difficult to navigate. Extremely professional! On the island, you have to drink bottled water, and the hotel provided a bottle daily, which was a great touch for guests. Environment: It's very close to the Mediterranean Sea, so you can lie back and gaze at the blue sky. Right outside, you can access the Fira cliffside walkway, perfect for seeing the blue-domed churches. Facilities: Quite new, and comes with toiletries and disposable slippers. Cleanliness: Generally good, cleaned daily, very spotless.

I took a taxi from the airport, but I couldn't go directly to the front of the hotel by car and took a suitcase. It is also close to the main street, so it is a very good place for sightseeing in Fira. The view from the hotel is also very good. The number of breakfast items is small, but there were also a la carte * menu. On the way back, I arranged a taxi from the hotel, but it was very helpful to carry my luggage from the hotel to the taxi. Overall, I think it was very good in terms of the ease of sightseeing in the scenery in Fira.

A very large hotel; our tour guide mentioned it's part of the InterContinental group. The rooms are quite spacious, which is perfect for families with kids. Everything in the minibar is chargeable except for the complimentary bottled water. The croissants at the breakfast buffet were delicious; while the overall breakfast selection wasn't vast, the quality was exceptional. We had a very pleasant three-night stay here. It's a shame we didn't get a chance to experience the hotel's pool. One night, guests in the adjacent room were quite loud late into the evening, and the soundproofing wasn't great, which unfortunately disturbed our sleep. The front desk was very helpful, offering to arrange taxis and make reservations at restaurants in nearby towns. This was a very thoughtful touch!

This is our 3rd stay at Astro Palace Hotel, Fira, Santorini. It has become like a home away from home for us since we first stayed there in 2022, then in 2023, and now in 2025. The property is incredibly well maintained. Their staff wonderfully and professionally trained, and they provide one of the best customer services we've ever experienced in all our global journeys. Our special thanks to Hope and Catherine, respectively, for their wonderful care. We also send our thanks to the barman (his name escapes me) and the restaurant staff, too. We appreciate all your wonderful hospitality. See you all again next year, by God's Grace!🙏🏿🙌🏿

Great stay at De Sol, everything in our room looks new and the amenities are amazing! We were warmly welcomed by the staff at the hotel who were so amazing to allow us to check in slightly earlier. Room was huge with a sofa and sufficient amenities. The buffet breakfast was also great with a good range of food!

We are mature second marriage honeymoon guests for 9 days at Nikki Beach Hotel and Resort. We loved our time, the service was always attentive and rapid. We own a Destination Wedding Venue INOLA Blue Ridge in the U.S. and understand luxury and service. The pool design and lighting is spectacular, room views great. Word of caution, if you dont like loud party music 11:30am to 7pm. Do not book a room near the main pool. The small pools at the rooms need more plantings and decor to make them more intimate. Also for about 80% of the pool rooms, other rooms look down into your pool. Go for the view and not the small pool. Thank you so much Nikki Beach!!! R. Skelton
