Sophia Boutique Hotel

Nightmare Honeymoon – Avoid This Hotel! Our honeymoon stay at this hotel was a complete disaster. The hotel was almost impossible to find, with many uneven steps down a hill that make carrying suitcases extremely difficult. Our room was shocking: it smelled bad, the shower was broken, the balcony shutter didn’t work, and the room was never cleaned during our entire 4-night stay. The pool was cold, filthy, and eventually swarmed with insects. The website promised welcome drinks and a fruit platter, which we never received. When we raised all these issues, the staff were completely indifferent and offered no solutions. For the price we paid, this stay was unacceptable. We would strongly warn anyone against booking this hotel, especially for a special occasion.

Fantastic view. On a high ridge overlooking Agean Sea. Breakfast service was very well laid out. Table service on time. Private pool was fantastic.

Wow this place is amazing, the staff were so friendly, welcoming and helpful. We had a plunge pool across from our room which was for our use only, this was fantastic. From here you could watch the sunset in the pool or alternatively go into the main area and watch. Just beautiful.

Amazing staff and helpful. Rooms cleaned daily. The sunset view from the hotel was amazing. The only issue was that we couldn’t use the main swimming pool. This should have been specified on expedia while booking.

I would stay away from this property. We were not able to use an amenity (the personal hot pool) due to the heater being broken. It was frigid. The property did nothing to fix this issue throughout the duration of our stay. Having access to a personal hot pool was the primary reason we booked it, and so, it was a complete disappointment. They refused to offer any refund for the lack of amenity use and for not delivering on what they said they offer, which is extremely poor customer service. The breakfast was average, and often arrived cold. There were ants in our room and the 'superior suites' are very tiny.

Great location within walking distance to Oia, in a quiet and safe area. The pool area is beautiful, with some rooms offering pools that overlook the ocean—very boho style and charming. The only downside was the water service: they mentioned they would refill the in-room water bottles daily, but during our two-day stay, this wasn’t done, even after I asked at reception. When we moved to a new room, the same issue happened. Aside from that, the staff was very nice and helpful. If you want to stay close to Oia without splurging, this is a solid option

Everything about our stay was perfect. The staff, the location, the pool was lovely.

Beautiful property. We received a fruit platter upon arrival but there is no food in the area this time of year. That was a unfortunate but the fruit and wine at check in helped. The parking lot is a little hard to find. It is off the main road and you should not follow your digital map as you will have to back up a very narrow road from where the hotel is actually located. Unfortunately, no one was answering the reception when we called for location help but they were there when we arrived on foot. Please note the plunge pool is not warm enough in early/mid March but it was very clean and beautiful. We loved our stay here but my comments are to help manage expectations. The staff is wonderful and the breakfast is wonderful. The location does not case the caldera but the view is phenomenal especially at sunset.

Very hard to get to and nobody to help get luggage down to the hotel. The lady with long brown hair was wonderful at check in and throughout the stay. The lady with blond e hair was VERY rude. The overall stay was ok. The shower design is terrible and water goes everywhere in the bathroom. Needs a shower curtain or door. They wouldn’t wash our towels each day as it would cost extra. They had no hand soap in the room so there was nothing to was your hands with. I asked the blonde lady for some hand soap and she said “that’s what we provide shampoo for”. There is also no coffee provided in the room. This was a let down. We also tried to order something from the bar and was told there was nobody there to make us anything. Very unacceptable. The pool water and plunge pool were frigid! Couldn’t enjoy those. Not sure I would stay here again. Views were amazing though.

Très beau site, très belle vue, une équipe sympathique et aidante. Il y a un beau lieux commun: bar, terrasse, piscine accessible à tous. La chambre a un cachet très typique, wow Bon déjeuner. Stationnement très près de l’hôtel. Rien à redire, merci

The staff is great! Everyone was so nice and helpful. The breakfast was delicious and the place itself was beautiful and veey clean.

Excellent staff ,clean and very welcoming. 5 stars all round

The location was very good ! Walking distance to the blue churches but the room itself has no ventilation it so wet inside case of the moisture and it’s stinks , I have to leave the windows open all the time and we noticed that the bathroom have black molds .

We did not like the ants in our room. The house keeping wanted to come back in 5 minutes but did not come at all. The staff was friendly. Special thanks to Said and the cook. Excellent!

El hotel muy limpio y lindo! En una gran zona donde hay varios restaurantes y estás a 20 min caminando de oía

The hotel accommodation was just perfect for me and my Cousin. We had a great time there and felt very safe. The Hotel Staff and the daily cleaning service was excellent. Our room smelled daily after the cleaning so good, also we became new slippers and new towels when we needed it. They take care of our environment. The breakfast we had was very good too, we had daily the choice to select what we wanted to eat at the next day. All in all I think that the Sophia Boutique Hotel in Finika is perfect for coming down and to relax the soul. The Hotel in Finika is just 10-15 walking minutes away from Oia. At the street is directly the bus station from where you can drove everywhere. We two girls felt very secure there around the neighborhood and came late back daily. The one thing I can also recommend are the restaurants between the alleys in Finika and the Hiking trail from Oia to Fira.

The view was beautiful, and there were some pretty features such as the ceiling. Overall our experience was not great due to the service being not very hospitable, the furnishings old and not kept up, and less clean than expected. Rust on the hinges, black spots on the sink basin, very dirty outdoor lounge cushions. Would expect more for what we paid. The location is also a bit out of the way.

Gorgeous views, felt very romantic. It was very quiet, great for a couple wanting to get away. The room was beautiful and always the right temperature.

We had difficulty locating the hotel from the main road, since it’s tucked down a hillside across the street from the parking, which had little signage. We stayed in a superior double suite with plunge pool. Our room was very small. No space for clothes or counters/shelves to set items. No room for toiletries. They only change towels every three days. Small fridge but it had stuff in it when we got there. The power went on and off, we were never notified about the issue. Witnessed some uncomfortable and, frankly, unprofessional conversations between staff when we tried to lay out by the big pool. Yelling amongst the staff lasted most of the afternoon. Our corner room had VERY little privacy. The plunge pool was advertised at “private” but the room we stayed in overlooked the entire deck, bar, and reception desk, so we didn’t have any privacy. We found we couldn’t keep any of our doors/windows open without being seen by neighbors or staff. The walls were very thin, we could hear doors open and shut, people talking, other noises from our neighbors. We spent roughly the same price on a hotel on the nearby island, Ios, that was MUCH nicer, which was disappointing for us considering we spent six of our seven nights here. Our biggest complaint was, my expensive headphones were stolen by housekeeping. Fortunately, I was able to track them moving afterward. When I contacted the hotel about this, they ghosted me. Overall, very unprofessional and disappointing experience.

Friendly and welcoming staff, comfortable hotel and well located for both Oia and Fira. Recommended!

We stayed at this hotel last week and overall had a really great experience. The food was especially impressive — everything we tried was delicious and fresh. A big shoutout to the receptionist ladies, who were so welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. Their friendliness really made a difference and added a personal touch.

Staff, Cleopatra was the best!!!

Sophia boutique Hotel was amazing! Ana was so accommodating, Saeed was beyond helpfull and Costas was amazing. The included breakfast was spot on and on days when we had early tours, they provided a brown bag breakfast option that was amazing.

入住前已多次確認零晨航班到達可入住亦得到店方承諾,但到.達後竟無人接待尤如空城,有住客提供緊急聯絡電話,但多次致電及發訊息均沒有任何回應,我們由零晨一時等到早上八時才有職員回來,其間我們只能在露天地方等待,當時極之大風及寒冷等了7個小時,而職員只表示記錯日子,由於酒店位置不算便利,車不過直到門口,有幾十级斜路樓梯,我們沒法轉移到另一酒店,這是我們最慘痛的經歷！ 酒店房間偏小,浴巾不是每天換乾淨的,是三天才換一次,如想每天換乾淨的浴巾要每次付25歐元！沐浴液是試用裝,也不是每天補充的,安排給我們的戶外按摩池是不能運作的,用餐區在露天地方,風很大加上猛烈陽光無法朶避,餐卓坐椅極不穩固,今次旅程我以似借宿多於入住酒店,難忘的！

The stay was wonderful! The staff were incredibly kind, welcoming, and always willing to help with anything I needed. The breakfast selection was a bit limited, but that wasn’t an issue since there are plenty of fantastic restaurants and cafés in town to choose from. We stayed 6 days. After a while you want something different for breakfast, so it was no fault to the property. One tip for travelers — take the local bus instead of a taxi or private car. The bus is clean, comfortable, and very reliable, costing only about €2 per person each way. In comparison, taxis and private transfers can run between $35–$45 one way, so the bus is definitely the smarter and more budget-friendly option. Altogether, a good trip.

The staff were attentive and so lovely, a special thanks to Anna for being so helpfu, loved everything about our stay, breakfasts were awesome!

Staff was never present or available. Got there at 5 pm and No one helped with our luggage we were told the staff had gone home.

Better than we imagined. The location is perfect, not even 10mins walk from Oia so it’s away from the tourist coming to see the famous sunset. The staff made us feel at home, just perfect

Perfect place to stay for our trip to Santorini! Lovely staff. Area was a bit tucked away from the hustle and bustle, while shopping and dining were an easy walk. Loved it’s easy accessibility to hiking trails as well!

Very kind and helpful staff. Breakfast was wonderful. Located close to Oia, but out of the hustle and bustle. Only about 15-20 drive to Fira.

A beautiful place near enough to the main area but far enough away to be quiet & relaxing. Breakfast each morning was a real treat and the staff are all friendly & helpful.

Breakfast included was good!

We enjoyed our couple of days at this hotel. We did run into a few issues with the staff and inflrmation getting lost between people. All and all, it was a nice property and the daily breakfast was the highlight.
