Reviews for Kalisperis Hotel
Review 1:Staff is really friendly and gives very usefull advice. Location is good. Quiet - you can rent a scooter (which you will need to discover the island) 100m from the hotel. Very good price/quality
Review 2:The shower could have been a bit bigger as the shower curtain kept sticking to us. And the bed bit bigger and comfortable. Other than that, great place
Review 3:Took a while to book a taxi to go back to the port, not sure if the taxi company is the issue though. Superior double room was not as expected; no phone or hairdryer. For iron and kettle you have to ask at reception which closes at midnight. Bus stop near hotel not reliable, waited for more than an hour and no buses passed. Had to go down to Messaria main bus stop
Review 4:Not very far from Fira, area is safe. They picked us up from the airport at no extra charge and showed us mini market and restaurant on the way to hotel.
Review 5:Shower a bit small, but that is the norm
Review 6:We were collected at the airport by Michael. Very friendly reception. Our room was comfortable. Lovely pool. Would recommend this hotel and hope to stay there again.
Review 7:A bit noisy for rooms with road view
Review 8:We enjoyed the new room with garden view. Very helpful staff. Good swimming pool. Good location in a small village less crowdy than the main towns
Review 9:The location was ok, but busses never seemed to come to the nearby stop. We had to walk to the next village over to catch the bus. The room was a value for Santorini, but cost much more than comparable rooms on other islands.
Review 10:The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable and clean.
Review 11:noisy road
Review 12:convenient location for buses to get around the island but not much on doorstep. Bring your earplugs then you'll have a good sleep. Owners are very very helpful.
Review 13:Staff were always helpful. From day one to day 4. Great self contained apartment sized units. Was great. I could sufficiently live in the room. nice having a pool too. Location was pretty good as it was central to pretty much all surrounding towns so travel was pretty equal distance either way we went. Bus stops right outside hotel. Recommend getting a quad bike to get around. (almost all of the hire places offer a pick up service and they come pick you up and take you there) Absolutely fantastic stay here. Thank you so much
Review 14:The shower was really small and with curtains; the air condionair was noisy and there wasn't tranfer from/to the port (although it was easy to find and use the local bus).
Review 15:The guy who attended us when we arrived was really friendly and helpful, giving us tips and advices about the island. The location wasn't the best, but was really close to the bus stop (5 min walking) that goes to Fira and Kamari.
Review 16:Nothing bad at all
Review 17:Michael and Costas could not have been more helpful or friendly. They were always pleasant and gave me great ideas as to what I should do on Santorini. I loved the location as it was quieter than being in Fira yet so easy to get buses as bus stop outside hotel virtually. The pool is gorgeous too and it is so beautiful at sunrise to look out to Pyrgos on the hilltop above the vineyards before having breakfast on the terrace. Divine.
Review 18:Staff here went way over and beyond in helping us.. We had a 1 bdr apartment and it was great.. even though it wasnt close to town you could catch a bus no worries..
Review 19:Weak wifi everywhere except for the main lobby. But that's ok... afterall... you're there to see Santorini, not stare at your phone ;)
Review 20:The location was excellent. Also, a great budget hotel if you're not looking to spend too much money. Located just in the middle of the island so we were able to see everything. Also, I requested a room with a nice view of the sea, and they gave me the best one!
Review 21:nothing
Review 22:everything but especially service. The hotel met us without any problems when we arrived during midnight in the airport, we had really a comfortable sleep and good breakfast in the morning and also the owner (manager) answered all our quietens and made few valuable recommendations in the morning. Many thanks!
Review 23:Air conditioner could work better. If you don't want noise, you should ask for a room that is not in front of the street. Plus you will get a balcony.
Review 24:Staff is very friendly and willing to help. Location is good if you want to pay less and walk 10 minutes to take the bus, or if you rent a vehicle. My room was simple but very clean.
Review 25:There was a bit of a noise due to cars.
Review 26:I was picked from the airport by car, so I had no problem getting into the hotel. The hotel is close to an amenities area, so you can walk there to eat or buy stuff in the market. It's also on the way to the port, the bus that goes there passes in front of the hotel, so if you want to reach the port it'll be perfect for you.
Review 27:Staffs there are so helpful and provide a lot of recommendation of how to travel in Santorini Also provide us a transfer when we need to catch the ferry which is 6 in the morning! The room is so nice and new, worth for a stay!
Review 28:The only thing was the shower was hand held but this is because we are not used to them in Australia.
Review 29:We had a great apartment with plent of room.. The pool was big and very clean. Michael and his bother went out of their way to help us with anything.
Review 30:Bathroom was so cramped that you couldn't move around. TV programs were all in Greek. Bed was not comfortable. I feel like in a hospital.
Review 31:I was happy with the personalized service. Hotel staff who is also the owner was very helpful and gave tips on how to go around the island.
Review 32:Kalisperis Hotel is really nice. The location is perfect cause you are located in the center of the island and close to everything. By scooter, it will take 8 minutes to go to Fira, 20 minutes to Oia, 10 minutes to the port and Kamari and 20 minutes to Perissa. The staff is perfect, really kind and very helpful. Hotel and rooms are very clean and the location is very quiet. There is also a swimming pool, perfect for a swim in the morning or at the end of the day. The airport is really close 5-10 minutes by car so very convenient. (you also have the free transfert from and to the airport). I highly recommend Kalisperis Hotel :)
Review 33:no tea towel to dry dishes.
Review 34:Good sized room with aircon and strong wifi. Nice pool. In the middle of the island so you need a car or quad but most people get these to travel around anyway.
Review 35:The only problem, i guess, is about the island itself, for not beig an easy place to walk. Me and my husband like to do everything by foot, but the lack of structure for pedestrians and the topography of Santorini makes it almost impossible to walk there, so you need to rent a car or take the public transport everywhere you want to go from the hotel.
Review 36:This hotel is amazing, clean, comfortable, beautiful and the staff is really helpful with everything you need to know. Really close to the bus stops.
Review 37:Quite noisy as on main road . Breakfast was poor quality and charged extra for. Whilst it is central, there is nothing to see in the locale. Santorini is very expensive in most places , so for a budget traveller, it's reasonable
Review 38:Friendly helpful owner . Good wifi , room was adequate
Review 39:Michael And Kostas was really helpful, they gave me all the information about the Island Shop , Beaches , Rental Car , Bus Information . Michael organised the transfer to the port . Lovely family run hotel, nice area, clean facilities,, excellent price, safe area.
Review 40:Nothing
Review 41:The staff at the hotel were great people and very friendly and it is a family run business, the rooms were roomy & comfortable and Michael & Costa were both very helpfull with info of the island etc and Michael took us to the airport free of charge to go home. Overall it was a very nice experience and the Island of Santorini is beautiful. The hotel was not in the main city but only a short walk to the local buses which go everywhere on the island. Kalisperis Hotel was a value for money stay. Thanks heaps Michael.
Review 42:wifi was not working in our room
Review 43:Michael was really helpful, he gave us all the information and told us what we could do (we had no idea:), where are nearest shops, rental places and bust stop. he organised us transfer to and from the port so we didn't have to worry about anything
Review 44:The pool is very nice Breakfast is very good. Recomend to take it outside, in the mornig with the sunshine in front of you. The people is very friendly and carry. I forgot my jacket upon the check out and realize it at the airport. So i call to them and they bring it after 10 min. Amazing location,in the center of santorini, at 15 min. from Thera,the main local.
Review 45:Traditional Greek hotel, offering a good value breakfast. Clean,spacious room with an essential fridge. Lovely pool. Michael & family could not have been more hospitable or helpful.
Review 46:Location might be a problem for those who extensively rely on the local public buses, but otherwise no other cons.
Review 47:Immensely helpful, friendly staff Great facilities
Review 48:The rooms weren't soundproof so you could hear everything. The curtains weren't thick enough so we would be woken up very early each morning by the sunlight. Wifi was temperamental. However, I would still recommend staying here, especially if you are on a tight budget.
Review 49:You definitely get more than value for money here. My boyfriend and I booked 4 nights here the night before arriving in Santorini. We originally wanted to stay in Fira or Oia but it was too expensive-however I'm so glad we didn't! Although not within walking distance of a beach, it's in the middle of Santorini which makes it the perfect location to travel to both sides of the island (we hired a quad). Michael is the most helpful person you could meet and gave us great and honest advice on everything. This made a huge difference to our stay.
Review 50:The shower was a bit small and difficult not to get water all over the bathroom but was working fine! Would of liked some music by the pool.
Review 51:The staff went above and beyond helping us with anything at all, lovely family run hotel, nice area, clean facilities, lovely balcony, excellent price, safe area.
Review 52:The owners are hospitable people, they helped us to rent a car and to make some excursions, gave us a map and adviced places of interest. Great value for money ratio. Big thanks and my recommendations to them!
Review 53:The nearest beach was a bus or taxi ride away although we went to a different beach almost every day.
Review 54:The manager & staff in general were very helpful & knowledgeable - from bus times to giving advice on trips & places to visit. The pool was a good size, very clean & never busy. A perfect place to relax after a day exploring the island before getting ready for our evening out.
Review 55:Wifi is not fully working for my laptop, i have go to lobby to connect to internet, but it's working well on my phone and ipad, very strange.
Review 56:Very friendly staff, they provide us help as much as they can, as much as we need. There is a very good swimming pool outside, clean and no much user. This pool even better than the beach on that island. Facilities are not modern, but what you want on such island?
Review 57:The property is located in Messaria, in the center of Santorini. Easy connection with Airport, Fira and Oia. The hotel stuff were more than kind and helpful, while hotel's facilities were absolutely excellent. I feel quite lucky I had had that excellent accommodation in this beautiful Aegean island, at really low cost with so many facilities. I won't forget owners' willingness (Michael and his brother Kostas) to assist me with anything I needed. It was my first time in Santorini and due to Kalisperis Hotel it was fantastic. Thanks
Review 58:noise, very close from road, bathroom very small
Review 59:the welcome of the owner nice beds and decoration , very clean, perfect for a family swimming pool very clean and big
Review 60:Location is quiet which suited us perfectly but may not suit those looking for a lively nightlife within walking distance.
Review 61:The staff were very welcoming and helpful. They picked us up from the airport and helped us arrange scooter hire. Hotel is in the middle of the island so perfect for exploring thira and oia in the north and the beaches in the south. Good bus service from bus stop outside hotel.
Review 62:We didn't hire a car which is probably recommended. Although we used the local taxis a lot and they were fine
Review 63:Couldn't praise this hotel enough. Michael and his family were so accommodating and helpful. Terrific value for money!
Review 64:The main road is too close and for the night it´s noisy
Review 65:The perfect personel and the information The room with a lot of Space very clean and well decorated The big swimming pool and many sunbeds and umbrellas Close to everybus like if it was the center of fira Nice breakfast The price very cheap
Review 66:- bathroom quite small and the shower curtain was uncomfortable - the first room offered was very old whereas the second at the groundfloor was rennovated.
Review 67:+location +staff +cleanliness
Review 68:bus system is not that nice since nothing is clear and it takes a 10 min walk to get to the bus stop of messaria. It is better to rent a scooter or 4x4.
Review 69:staff was really nice and helpful for maps, bus, taxis, etc. The pool was nice, the landscape was beautiful, it was quiet. The owners are always at the front desk and make sure everything is ok for everyone.
Review 70:Our room was located on the main street and for this reason was a bit noisy. Also some noise come from the corridor, since the walls are thin.
Review 71:Our staying at Kalisperis Hotel was very good. Mike, the owner, is very nice. He picked us up at the airport and drive us to the port, where we took the ferry. He also helped us to rent a car for a day (at a very good price)! The rooms were simple, but clean. The location is ok, it's easy to reach fira and kamari - the bus station is 10 min by walk. But if you want to go to other places, it's better to rent a car!
Review 72:I would prefer larger bathroom and more variable breakfest.
Review 73:1.The hotel offers transfer to and from the airport free of charge. 2. Nice pool 3. Pleasant staff
Review 74:Breakfast could be better and not that great.

Review 80:Lovely personel, a very nice and clean room, great location with bus stops in the vicinity, a swimming pool; nothing to complain about

Review 85:Room was clean ! The staff was extremely helpful and the location was perfect to get to all sides of the island !!
Review 86:Nice location and rooms
Review 87:mostly ok but so long as you understand it is 3km to Fira town.
Review 88:nice pool, comfortable room with good aircon and close to Carrefour for supplies.
Review 89:Stay away! This hotel is dirty, loud, and extremely uncomfortable! We spent 3 nights here and considered leaving early.
Review 90:Friendly and helpful staff Romantic bedrooms with terrace Clean and comfortable Central location Affordable room rates.
Review 91:Bit tired
Review 92:Handy for Santorini Port Very cheap Clean
Review 93:The owners were great, nothing was a problem and they had lots of advice
Review 94:It is a bit far from the sort of activities we were interested in (such as Fira, Oia or the beaches)
Review 95:It's a bit far from most places but we rented a car so it was perfect! Only 5-10min from Fira.
Review 96:The staff, the impecanle of the rooms, pool, balconies were amazing!
Review 97:for the price this is a great deal.. very nice staff. good location and they picked us up from the port for a reasonable price. swimming pool also looked great thanks
Review 98:Hotel a bit shabby in places. Avoided pool as looked unclean.
Review 99:Helpfull freindly staff. Easy to find. Room had air con and fridge. Basic but comfortable accomodation at very reasonable price.
Review 100:the only serious problem is - and it's not the hotel's but the municipality's fault - the fact that the local buses refuse to go via Vothonas. They want you to go to Fira and come back. I had to twist the arm of the driver to go thru the scheduled route! on another occasion i waited on the bus station for a scandalous hour and a half till realised that i'd bette walk to Mesaria's road intersection with Kamari, wherre the buses pass on a regular schedule
Review 101:superb value for the money! comfortable and spacious with nice views from the premises & rooms, easily accesible to big supermarket and village ccenter, relaxed atmosphere and very helpful and accommodating staff. Meticulously clean. The swimming pool in a nice feature for a refreshing dip...
Review 102:shame we didn't have a kettle seem it was room only but we did have a fridge ,went to the shop and brought one :)
Review 103:lovely location in the middle of the island so it wasn't to far to get to places good bus service ,room comfy even had choice of rooms even had a fridge
Review 104:The hotel was excellent! Very helpful and friendly staff! It was located right in the middle of the island which made it easy to get around. It wasn't directly in any of the cities which was very nice. You will most likely want a car, but we talked to the front desk and reserved on for us. He did all the talking and the car was brought tight to us and we didn't even have to return it, just left it at the hotel. The owner gave us a ride to the airport! Stay here and you won't be disappointed!!
Review 105:none. perfect for the budget.
Review 106:the staff was excellent, they picked us up at the port at 1:30 am for free. the place had a large pool although i havent got a time to use it, it looked just like the pictures. and the room is very Laarge, cool!
Review 107:The public transport system in the island is a not so convenient, where we need to go to Fira to reach other destination.
Review 108:The owner picked up up from the airport, explained the necessary information to us, and even on last day, he sent us to the airport. Excellent service!!
Review 109:The staff were amazing, they even drive us to the bus stop when there were no cabs available! Rooms were clean and had plenty of space for two travelers, and lovely views. I would love to stay here again. Ask at the front desk about booking an inexpensive boat cruise - they give you the tickets right there at the desk, and the boat trip was our favorite part of our trip to Santorini.
Review 110:none
Review 111:everything is beyond expectation It's a excellent stopover on the way from the port to Fira. Actually it's in the middle of the island. There is a bus stop in front of the Kalisperis Hotel.You spend one third price of the hotels in Fira or Oia, and you get quietness. Beside,there are 2 supermarkeks in 5 minutes walking distance. everything there is cheapper than other markets on this island.
Review 112:Location-wise, you are a short walk down a little hill from a bigsupermarket, a bakery where the staff were very helpful (if youcan't get soy milk coffee, ask for a frappe without milk at thebakery as it seems to be okay for the lactose intolerant!), bars andrestaurants, but for the big ticket numbers - Oia, Fira and thenearest beach you will need to take local buses. This is easilymanageable, however.
Review 113:We were overjoyed to finally get to Santorini and had a comfortable,very economical stay at Kalisperis. The staff waited up for us arrivingon the very late ferry (around 1am!) and were very helpful withproviding directions and a free lift to the airport on our day ofdeparture. There was a slight variation on the room picture from theroom itself but once in it we were comfortable. There was a lovely viewover a field, the pool and Fira in the distance from our window.Santorini is spectacular and beautiful. This is a good budget hotel thatdeserves more business. Thanks for having us.
Review 114:Well, the nearest bus stop is kinda hard to find( I used to wait at the second nearest one) jajaja, you will know if you choose this hotel.
Review 115:Super friendly and helpful staff!!! Because that was the low season when I went to Santorini, they even allow me to choose most of the rooms as I want. Convenient traffic and cleaning pool are also the reasons of this hotel being my first choice if I go there again.
Review 116:Simple and easy bus ride into Thira. Bus stop across the road from the hotel. A good central base to explore
Review 117:The staff here are very nice and helpful!
Review 118:The breakfast.
Review 119:The facility To get transfer from and To port and To rent a car.
