Altera Pars Suites

Apart from the location, this hotel definitely deserves a 5 star rating. Everything was perfect, the room is beautiful furnished and big with a private pool and garden. The service was nice and warm , they were really passionate about telling the best way to travel in Santorini. Of course the cleanliness was good, I stayed for two nights and they cleaned up our room spotless. Breakfast was delicious and good looking, they let us to choose the style and personalised food. The breakfast will be sent to our room by choosing time from us, this is a great morning call as well. I would highly recommend this hotel as the price and service is a very good deal. One small thing to improve is the location, there is a bus stop 3mins walk but not showing in google map. Could be better if they have free shuttle bus to Fira or airport.

I generally do a good study on location of the hotel when travelling with kids, in this case I missed it and hence ended up at a location which I won't recommend to the family/kids. If you are visiting this area, hands down pick something that is close to FIRA town. Even though on the map this shows 10 mil drive to FIRA which is the HUB , the access is very limited. If you plan to take a taxi , it will cost you 30-40Euro, where the bus costs 2Euro per person for anywhere in the area. The issue with the bus is that there timing and calendars are not accurate. If you are staying in FIRA taking a BUS to any location will be a breeze as its the starting and ending point of the every BUS. Now coming to the rooms, very clean and spacious. We didn't use the pool as it was still cold but during the peak summer, they can be your best relaxing place. Breakfast was really good and enjoyed there menu items. There is pizza/gyros place Kantina near the hotel like 5 minute walk which delivers food and open late night. We enjoyed there food and will recommend. The bus stop to go to FIRA is just opposite this restaurant Katina. So if you stay at this place and come from FIRA , make sure you tell the conductor to stop at KANTINA stop, else you will be drop at the next city and it will be 15 minute walk to the hotel. we went during the non peak time and buses were still full, surely during the peak time it will be more crazy and crowded. Again I will recommend if you have your own car/transport, this place is awesome. If you plan to use the bus , stick with FIRA location.
