Lock in a great price for Hotel Mathios – rated 8.4 by recent guests!

to get started.

More than anything we really loved the location. Ok - so it doesn't have a view to speak of, which is a rare thing in Santorini! Very near the hotel was possibly the best beach on the island - NOT that beaches is why you go to Santorini. Saying that the famous towns are very busy during peak season and not really worth visiting. Anyway - back to the beach - it is a dark sand beach but there is a great big rock to jump off (which our boys loved) and also there is some great snorkeling with a big rock and many fish. It is lovely. The restaurant on the beach is very good! We had a pleasant stay at this hotel but thanks to the nearby beach - the nice pool and the friendly (enough) staff.

Great position for akrotiri, and exploring that end of the island. Convenient for supermarkets and restaurants. Lovely pool area, which we were very glad of. Hotel nice and clean, helpful staff.

Elizabeth, United Kingdom

We enjoyed 10 days with our two (8 and 11) kids in the Hotel and the first very positive feeling is the warm welcome from the staff. The manager is very kind to provide you with all the right advices that will make you stay a great experience. He will arrange any kind of activities for you and this is very appreciated especially when this is your first time in the island. Rooms are comfortable (we had one with view on the pool, can't talk about others), clean and quiet. If your air conditioning is not working, do not borrow the staff, just make sure that the window is closed. The Hotel restaurant, next to the pool, is nice and relaxing.The food is good (especially the Greek specialisites) and waiters are very professional. We highly recommand this adress if you want to stay into a relaxing place, away from too busy places of Fira and Oia, but close to all Santorini's places to visit.

The staff at the hotel absolutely lovely nothing is too much trouble! They assisted us with everything from transfers to renting a car. We were also given a free upgrade on arrival which was a lovely touch! Had the best stay here.

Nicole, United Kingdom

We had a great welcome and being upgraded is always a bonus (and doesn’t happen very often). The room was very clean. Breakfast was perfectly adequate. The staff were very friendly and efficient. A credit to Kostas. Located directly by a bus stop, it was very easy to travel anywhere on the island.

Sharon, United Kingdom

Very nice place with a friendly atmosphere, you feel like at home. Nice swimming pool where you can have also breakfast or meals. Very close to Akrotiri village where you have more food options. Free parking. The owner is very much helping with information on excursions and activities.

Cizeta, Italy

The pool, the owner of the hotel was quite helpful. And the food was like a homemade food.

Mohamed, United Arab Emirates

We were given a larger room with a pool view as we arrived later than planned due to travel delays, this was appreciated. The hotel is located close to beaches and there's a nice view of the Caldera from across the road. Cozy dining area by the pool and good home-made meals for dinner. We enjoyed our stay, the staff was friendly and Mr. Kostas gave us some recommendations to make the most of our visit!

눉The owner, Mr Costas, gave us an impression of being very bosy. He told us we got an upgrade but we pretty much felt this was a marketing trick. We thought a baby cod would be free to use but we had to pay €25 per night extra. Our daughter therefore slept in our bed and the bed wasn't too big. The food wasn't too great either. I highly recommend you to have dinner in a taverna just 200 meters from the hotel. We had dinner in the hotel, they told us mama was cooking that night but we didn't see anybody cooking. We think they just heated the food.

눉In most instances we found the staff not cooperating. The suit is not for family. The double bedroom had unsafe steep stairs and it is open to the living room where the 2 beds for our child were located. There was no privacy for us in our bed room. We tried to change it but they refused. The suit was also small and hot and every time we try to open the window the air conditioner shut sown automatically. The breakfast was poor, no fresh juice. They used the powdered juice. The bread was not the fresh bread. They has cereals which also did not taste good. There was no omelette not sausage. I cannot say what they provide is a breakfast. We tried to spend most of the time outside so we don’t remember how poor the our hotel was. I highly recommend not to go to this hotel at all until they provide what island guests deserve. You need to have good memories in this Island

눉We can't think of any improvements to the hotel! Everything about our stay and the welcome we received was perfect. Thank you.
눇My boyfriend and I stayed at the hotel a few weeks ago during our first week long holiday abroad. Being young adults who had never had this experience before, we were not sure what to expect. We had arranged an airport transfer from the hotel, which waited for us despite experiencing a delay in landing, and the driver was friendly and helpful with a large (and air-conditioned) vehicle. The hotel itself was clean, comfortable and had a lovely pool area and restaurant. Our room was upgraded free of charge to a pool view room, and we had a lovely comfortable bed and every facility we required. The staff at Hotel Mathios deserve an extra special mention for being so so helpful, kind and patient with us. We would like to thank Kostas for his help with booking trips (we highly recommend the boat excursion to the volcano and hot springs), and the reception staff (particularly the new lady whose name we didn't catch) who was so kind to us and really helped us to have an easy and relaxing stay. The hotel also has an excellent location close to many restaurants, a bus network and beaches, which the staff at the hotel were very helpful in pointing out. Thank you to Hotel Mathios and all of it's wonderful staff. We highly recommend this hotel!

눉few constructives remarks. In regards to rooms rate and the Hotel standing, we would have expected a more rich breakfast. You can get more choice (such as scrambled eggs etc...) but you'll have to pay for it. Another idea for improvement is to have the buffet as well outside near the pool (yes, I'm a lazy guy in holidays). It is forbidden to jump into the pool, especially during the nap period. Well, the staff should be a little bit more flexible with this rule with young kids (just like they are with teenagers and adults...).
눇We enjoyed 10 days with our two (8 and 11) kids in the Hotel and the first very positive feeling is the warm welcome from the staff. The manager is very kind to provide you with all the right advices that will make you stay a great experience.

눉At some point in his early career the owner/manager must have worked at a well-known fast food outlet for he was always keen to sell extra ... he persuaded me to rent a car for two days initially promising a discount, going back on his word thereafter and of course, it had to be a cash transaction (ATM is next door ...). The car I got was a beat-up old Fiat Panda for Euro 39.00 per day. It was delivered EMPTY with just enough petrol to get me to the gas station a kilometer away ... You could not get any of the gears in - I had to put on the hazard lights several times as it was impossible to move the car - to get any value from the handbrake I had to pull it up to my armpit and the clutch was on its last legs. The tours offered by the hotel are sold at gigantic prices with the manager always complaining how little he makes on each - top tip: make your way into Fira, rent a car from an international rental agency and shop around for tours. I found a fab one for Euros 20.00 (volcano and hot springs) as opposed to a sunset tour on a catamaran for Euro 115.00. At Village Mathios it is all thought through - you can have a free welcome drink on your first night at 7:00 pm (the intent being you are staying for dinner - not that special in my opinion). I had had a drink at a different time (but NO welcome drink) and was charged for it. My request for a room with a pool view was met with an offer that I should pay more - this is not advertised on ther Booking listing - all in all I have had far superior welcomes on my trips around Greece.
눇It is a clean and nice little hotel with individual accommodation, mostly set around a pleasant pool with a good breakfast in the morning. The place is close to the site of prehistoric Akrotiri - be warned: admission to the site is Euro 12.00 and frankly it ain't worth it. I studied classical archaeology at uni and felt I was looking at a vast building site - nothing had been left in situ. The bus connections are great so a car rental only makes sense if you are a little pressed for time. I rented a car to go up to Ancient Thera though the hotel manager claimed it would be too stressful for me as I did not know the roads. The roads are fine but note: It is blowing a gale up there at the best of times so do take a jacket or similar - you will be pleased you brought it. Some people walk up but this is a big undertaking and if you do decide to walk, take PLENTY of water - better to drive - no bus service to the site and it is closed on Mondays!!! For all history buffs: The prehistory museum in Fira is ace!! Do not miss it -it is fabulous and gets you away from the crowds!!!!

“A friendly and comfortable hotel”

눉Take a portable electric kettle if you like to make a cup of tea (though beverages are available from the restaurant). Avoid rooms facing the road, although it isn't a busy road, cars do pull in to the shop next door. I wouldn't recommend the nearest beaches - Akrotiri & Balos Bay - for bathing. Red Beach, with stunning red cliffs, is better for bathing, but you need to be sure-footed to negotiate the path down to the beach. Volcanic black sand on all of them.
눇Friendly staff. My room was cleaned & fresh towels supplied daily. I liked my little patio facing the pool. The pool was great after a days walking or sightseeing. Very good location in a quiet village. A 15 minute walk to ancient Akrotiri archaeological site & Akrotiri Beach where there are several excellent tavernas. Just across the road from the hotel a beach with one of the best views of the whole caldera for which the island is famous. Bus stop opposite hotel. Handy mini supermarket next door. Hotel has its own good restaurant.
