From the first moments of our arrival, the employees of the hotel were very polite and eager to assist us with details on how to spend our time most appropriate. The receptionist was beyond his duty friendly, willing to help and to give directions for any type of information we were looking for. Breakfast was excellent, we really liked the... More

Centrally located,10 mins to city square, old port and local bus station. Perched on the edge of the Caldera, you have a nice view of the caldera from your room/balcony. Sunset was beautiful from the balcony, why go to OIA for the sunset? Rooms are well maintained with free wifi. Breakfast was sufficient though i missed my eggs. James and... More

GREAT location, very close to the bus stop. Which works out nicely since we take the bus everywhere--to ruins, beaches, other towns, airport, etc. BEAUTIFUL view from rooms, breakfast area, and balconies. Plus if you open the windows, you get the refreshing breeze from the sea. The view of the sunset and moon from this hotel is amazing. Efficient check-out...and... More

Great location in the centre of Fira and overlooking the caldera. Many shops and restaurants just out of the door and many easy ways to get to the other villages with beaches and attractions in maximum 20min bus ride. Great service: while you are having breakfast, your room is beeing cleaned up, and reception staff is always helpful and nice.... More

Stayed here on second trip to Santorini. The property is older and the rooms are small, but the view is great and the location is central to all of the action in Santorini. The breakfast was decent, and the breakfast seating area outside was nice. The service was good, our ferry was cancelled and we had to stay two extra... More

The hotel is nicely located, it's "easy" to find, the view is astonishing. This hotel is probably the best price for such a view. Other than that... The owners are not greek, they are american, although they know quite well the place. The staff (breakfast & cleaners) are from eastern europe (like a lot of ppl working in Santorini) The... More

A fantastic cliffside gem with an amazing view of the caldera!! We selected the Kavalari due to a number of reasons including reasonable price, view, location is central in Fira with many shops, tavernas & pubs just steps away from the front entrance.

Charming hotel presents great value and location with a view of the caldera. There is a large area of tables mixed infront of several rooms where you can have breakfast and a drink looking over the amazing scenery. The service was very friendly and helpful. We received an upgrade to a cave room which was really appreciated. The complimentary breakfast... More

Amazing view of the caldera. Stayed in a cave room for our honeymoon, which was clean, but a little dated. Service at the front desk was excellent! Location is very close to restaurants and bus stop. Breakfast every morning was fantastic!

A friend and I had booked a four day stay in Hotel Kavalari, and it was a GREAT decision! We were greeted by James, who was very knowledgeable and friendly. The rooms themselves were very simple, however the views were AMAZING! The hotel itself sort of cascaded down the mountain side, so we had a great view of the sea... More
