The Kalisti was in a great location being close to Fira main area, so it was within walking distance to shopping, restaurants, and the bus station. The staff was helpful and friendly. The bar area was comfortable and relaxing. I would stay again if I ever visit Santorini.

Overall property is adequate at a great location. We stayed four nights in two rooms. Details… Bartending staff is fantastic around the pool they get an A+. Regarding noise level in the hotel, the staff required an unrealistic amount of silence after 8 p.m. which is completely unreasonable. The irony of this is that they allowed some individuals to host parties and proceed to scream in the hallways until 4 am. Housekeeping was very attentive after my air conditioning leaked... but they also don't replace glasswear daily. Breakfast was adequate. If you're looking online at the amenities and see the hot tub option, completely disregard that due to the fact that it is a cold tub. Overall, it's a great location, but they have some details to work on.

The location is perfect, two minutes walk to the beautiful streets of Fira. The rooms are nice, breakfast quality and service are super. Some of the staff is lacking customer service skills, got into ridiculous arguments with us. Pool towels policy changed while we were there. They did not allow to bring snacks and drinks to the pool area, and insisted that we were informed, which we were not. The jacuzzi water was cold. The manager of the place is very kind and does his best to assist.

Friendly staff. Clean room. Comfortable stay. Only downside is if you want to leave a bag before or after check out, it has to sit in the halls and doesn’t feel like there is any security measure to ensure another guest doesn’t take your bag, but many did this as did we and it turned out fine.

Location was good, staff were helpful and friendly. Good choice at breakfast. However the rooms were very basic, very little storage. Felt like you were in a cave, not luxurious. Bathroom was small and the shower had no screen or curtain so when you had a shower the whole room was soaking wet, nothing to mop the water up with, making it Slippery and dangerous. Expensive for what it is

Went island hopping and stayed at 5 different hotels. This was the worst. I would stay in Oia instead ifvi came again. The area surrounding is very busy and dirty. We got to the hotel at 1:30 and they wouldn’t let us check in until 3:30. We had to leave our suitcases and bags in the hallway reception where anyone walking by in the hotel could access them. All the other hotels offered early check-in but they made us wait. We walked around town for 2 hours and returned at 3:25 and asked if we could check in. The girl at the front desk asked us to wait 5 more minutes. We stood in the empty lobby for 5 minutes until a group of about 15 people arrived. They walked up to the front and began checking in and receiving room keys while we continued to stand and wait. I finally went up to the front and told the girl who asked us to wait 5 min (this was about 15 min later) that we’d like to get our key. Our bags were already in our room so I’m not sure why she asked us to wait in the first place. They sent us down to the first floor (room 108) even though our room was supposed to be a “deluxe balcony” room. We were right around the corner from the staff work closet. All night long we heard the staff going up and down the stairsI The room had terrible ventilation and the air conditioner barely worked. The fact that the room was clean was the only saving grace. It was stuffy and literally felt like living in a cave. Every time you leave the hotel you have to leave your room key at the f

The TV remote was missing in our room, she completely forgot about it until we had to ask her again the next business day. The water, coffee and condiments were not refilled, we also had to ask the front desk for the refill in person.

The included breakfast is incredibly complete, includes the regular dishes but also many hot Greek dishes. It is a good way to test the Greek cuisine for the 1st time. This is the ideal hotel for travelers coming to Santorini for the 1st. time
