I love staying at Ellinon Thea for 3 reasons: location, hospitality and jacuzzi. Location is in the heart of Firostefani which I feel is more peaceful. It is close to 3 Bells of Fira which is very nice especially during sunset. The room we got is very spacious (can sleep 4 people). It is on the ground floor. It is a boutique hotel. Bathroom is small but clean. Tania is very hospitable and able to assist in anyway she can. They include breakfast served in the room. The jacuzzi gives you a very nice view of the caldera. Since room is ground floor which I believe the only ones with jacuzzi, you will see people passing by as hotel has a main road in front for people to passby. Overall great stay.
We absolutely loved our stay! The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming — they made us and our baby feel so special every day. The location was perfect, with stunning caldera views and just a short walk to Fira. The room was spotless, cozy, and beautifully maintained. Breakfast on the balcony was a highlight, and afternoons by the pool were so relaxing. Everything was perfect — we can’t wait to come back! .... Special thanks to Taniya 😊
Lovely hotel to stay in. Lovely hot tub. Breathtaking views. The hotel manager Tania was lovely throughout and very helpful with working out what to do and organising trips. Her dog Brave is also lovely.
This boutique hotel with just 9 rooms is a gem. Rooms were spotless clean, tastefully decorated and the views breathtaking. The location is perfect and steps away from great restaurants and the square. George & Tanya were such good hosts and very attentive to all the guests. Can't say enough good things about this place !
