This property was perched perfectly on the hill to get a spectacular view of Santorini, it’s super close to bus terminals, shopping and places to eat. We had the cave room with courtyard view, just steps away from a view of the caldera . I would definitely stay here again, as the staff was super friendly and helpful with all our questions. I put a 4 for cleanliness only because the counter in our room was noticeably dusty with sand upon our arrival, but other than that, I felt it was a clean environment. I have knee issues and this location doesn’t have an excessive amount of stairs to get to your room from the drop off point.

We stayed for a week at Ira Hotel and had a great time. The hotel is very well situated in Firostefani with a great caldera and sea view. The rooms are spacious and clean. A few minor issues about the room (lights, fridge) were dealt with promptly. Special thanks to receptionist Efi for her great service!

Fantastic location. Beautiful view. Great staff. I wish the pool was heated, but we came in the off-season, so it was cooler but less crowded. Lots of exercise, walking up and down lots of stairs. But that's Santorini for you. Bring your walking shoes and have fun.

The staff is not accommodating, understanding. I was ignored in person, by phone and by email after multiple attempts to speak with manager. The stairs are slippery, narrow and hard to see due to the same color with floor; amongst other issues.

The property is lovely with amazing views of the Caldera. WARNING: The hotel has stairs everywhere and is not suited for people with limited mobility or heart conditions. I travelled with my 75 yr old mother who has knee issues and her room and mine had the bathroom on a first floor and the bed and living room on a second floor. Stairs in the room are extremely steep. We asked for another room for my mother but staff told us they were all booked, even though we visited during off season. There was very few businesses near the hotel open and its a 20-25 downhill (later uphill) walk to Fira (The Capital City)

The waiter for breakfast was attentive, polite and inviting. Felt the other staff were pushy such as insisting we sit and not great assistance in arranging transportation/ transfer. Everything was provided at a cost, such as water. Loved the cave idea and room was quite large, but no shower door caused the room to get saturated in water everyday.

The staff was extremely friendly! Always looking to see if we needed help with anything. Super clean establishment with a great view of the ocean sunset, and walking distance from the main part of town. The food here was delicious. We were even allowed to check out and still use the amenities until we had to depart to the airport later that afternoon. Never once were they in a hurry to get us out, on the contrary their service was very comforting and inviting. Definitely coming back to this location.

From the day we booked the hotel looking at a few reviewers, couldn’t wait to experience and share feedback to help other travellers. Mageritta and Maria are the in-charge we met, always smiling, dedicated to work, speak very good English, give clear information, helped us to arrange a taxi for a day tour, which was equally the best. Room service cleaners were equally good, cleaned the room at return and they even delayed the cleaning as per request, allowing us to finish packing. The rooms are a decent size, so we picked Caldera facing… yes it, is right from the window, what a scenic beauty, you don’t wish to leave the room. We picked a room with a cosy balcony to enjoy your tea/coffee with a breathtaking view. Good-sized TV, with Netflix loaded, wow login to your account 👌and it has a nice bathroom. Manos at the restaurant serves you a tailor-made breakfast, has a smiling personality, shares local info, and provides quick service. Ali, the chef is the master chef, so tasty omelette, a variety of bread options, juice options, salad, tea, and coffee… and it’s avail till 11 AM, making it a good brunch to start your day. 10 min walk is a supermarket, which also serves food / does delivery to the hotel till late evening. Thank you, team Ira, you made our stay so memorable 🙏❤️

We loved our stay at Ira Hotel. It was a beautiful, quaint hotel built right into the cliff overlooking the sea, and felt very "Greek" in its architectural style. The view from the pool, lounge area and our seaside room was absolutely breathtaking! We saw the sunset over the caldera every evening from our balcony -- the best hotel view we had during our entire trip! The hotel is quiet, yet conveniently located (within walking distance) to the city centers of Firastefani, Fira, and Imerovigli, including shopping and dining. The breakfast buffet was very nice, but it's too bad you can't enjoy the view from the restaurant. Just a few things to note: as it is cliffside, there are quite a few steps involved on the property -- our suite itself had 3 levels! Also, the pool is pretty small, but big enough to dip in and cool off. Most of the staff were very friendly. I would absolutely stay and again and highly recommend this hotel!
