All in all I would say the El Greco resort is more like a poor three star hotel, it’s probably great for the international guest who are only staying two nights whilst they island hope

The quality of the breakfast is poor, bordering on awful.

The buffet breakfast had a poor selection..

however the beds are only double and very hard the pillows are even worse very poor quality nice big shower in the room.

Finally, room servicing was poor as I had a glass of water on my first night that continued to sit there not replaced or cleaned all the way until the last night.

To me I think this is really disappointing as clearly this is poor organisation from the hotel as they’d not even tried to put any guests who were arriving later on that day in our room nor did they offer us the use of another room for the rest of the day.

but then you have to deal with poor service (you can't even make a phone call from your room), the location out of town that forces you to walk under the sun a lot, and a terrible breakfast in the morning.

The only negative point for us in Fira was the poor donkeys going up and down the 500 odd steps that takes you up the cliff side from the port.

The only negative we would say is about the food, breakfast was a poor standard with eggs bacon etc just so over cooked.

Being from Melbourne Australia don’t even get me started about the poor excuse for coffee at breakfast - only one choice & from a machine -some sort of coloured water.

Room amenities are poor with no coffee and tea or even tissues available.the air conditioner in our room was old and noisey.

Breakfast was poor, they serve every day same food, restaurant is not very big

but one of the managers gave us a poor first impression.

The orange juice and coffee were very poor quality and for most of our holiday we didn't bother at all with the breakfast.

Usual breakfast items, awful coffee, poor choice of tea, milk always had ran out.

Hotel staff always very smiley and  helpful,  and the resort and rooms were always super-clean.

Hotel staff always very helpful, the resort itself and rooms were always super-clean and breakfast staff were friendly.

Excellent food, excellent clean rooms, amazing pools, spacious, friendly polite staff, location perfect for sunsets and 5 minute walk into lively Fira where there’s a maze of little passageways with an abundance of shops restaurants bars and spectacular views.

Rooms are very clean and is done so everyday, overall no complaints and highly recommend for families especially.

Very nice hotel, spotlessly clean rooms with styly decor and lovely , helpful reception staff.

The beds were comfortable and room very clean.

!The rooms are very clean, comfortable, with nicely decorated , spacious , with a very comfortable bed.

The room was clean and comfortable with a very big double bed and we were lucky to have a sea view which was perfect to watch the sunrise.

The room was spotlessly clean with modern decoration and amazing sea view from the patio.

An amazing hotel, with great friendly staff and really well furnished and clean rooms!

The cleaning staff kept out room immaculate.

The rooms are clean, spacious and modern.

Our room was neat and clean as was the pool area and bar.

The room was cleaned to an excellent standard, well airconditioned and spacious.

Room was clean and modern, great balcony, pool was great at the end of the day.

The hotel was wonderful and the room was clean.

The room itself was very clean and beautiful.

Our room was clean and tidy, ample for what we needed.

Excellent location, clean rooms, friendly staff and the bar by the pool is really good cocktails!

One "suite" (really just a room) was much smaller than the others and had a very small bathroom with a tiny shower that leaked all over the bathroom.

The shower was so small I could not even turn around without hitting my back on the tap that was sticking out.

The bathroom was very tight, and the curtain for the extremely small shower space didn't really stop the water from turning it into a wet room.

The room was small and the shower was tiny, with curtains,

But no sea view, a little bit small bathroom, and no free breakfast.

but the bathroom was tiny and the shower is comically small.

although the shower is small and needs to be held while showering.

The only area of improvement would be a shower curtain, as its a small bathroom, everything gets wet without curtain.

but pricey and some locals explained to us they felt the cruise liner visitors flooding the small town were spoiling the atmosphere and ramming up prices for other visitors as all shops and restaurants compete.

but bathroom is really tiny and we had cold showers few times.

but we are not accostumed to go to modern hotels with a rather small toilet.

If I could say anything negative at all would be that the bathroom was small

Though the bathroom was very small, you are basically facing the washbasin while sitting on the toilet bowl.

Breakfast in the hotel was excellent 👌 room was a bit small

The following day, we were not informed we had to move back to the tiny room.

The rooms are tiny for the cost and the bed is like sleeping on a rock.

The room was tiny, the best part about it was the shower and the bathroom.

After my friend left I got moved to a smaller room on the second floor, the room was tiny

3) The rooms are small, and depending on what room you get, you may or may not be able to walk by your friend on your way to the bathroom.

However our room was small, basic and definitely not one in the photos.

The window in the bathroom had a screen over it and could not be closed, not a big issue

Make sure to keep windows closed at night so they won't enter.

I was disappointed in the room itself, which had no window!

but there was no shower curtain so you have to be really careful with the spray or else you'll be rinsing off the entire bathroom like we did the first time we used it.

5) Bathroom shower does not have a shower curtain unless you make a mess and the cleaning lady takes pity on you.

but surely they can do something about the shower curtain.

It has no windows at all, so you can experience some claustrophobia.

Cons:
- Sparse room decor + fluorescent lights (or what seemed like fluorescent lights) + no windows (the doors had windows

Just one thing: sort out that shower curtain George.

but the shower curtain had to go..It was better open!!

but no curtain or fans, so they do fog up easily.

Shower pressure is great. Just expect the entire bathroom to be wet after a shower since there is no shower curtain (I would leave dry clothes outside.)

The bathroom was tiny…at least the shower stall included a shower curtain, not always to be found in Greece.

If there is any complaint to be had it would be that the bathroom was good without being great, the smallish shower with draw curtain could probably be improved

I also had to keep the windows closed at night to try to shut out the noise of cars and motorcycles from the road (and was only partially successful).

Only negatives would be the shower had no pressure and temperature of water was sporadic, and curtains were thin and let a lot of light in - making it hard to have a sleep in!

but at least it had a shower curtain unlike many much more expensive hotels in Europe that we stayed in.

The rooms are spotless, as is the rest of the building and the pool is a beautiful, it is immaculate, with lovely plants and wonderful views.

Other reviews will mention the excellent breakfast, how spotless the rooms and hotel are,

The room was spotlessly clean when we arrived and the cleanliness was maintained by the lady who cleaned the rooms.

The hotel is spotlessly clean and the rooms comfortable.

The hotel, facilities, and location are ideal for a relaxing, and stress-free holiday. As always Hiroko's breakfast is perfect, the rooms spotless and kept that way every day by the dedicated and friendly hotel maid (sorry I didn't  catch your name.)

The accommodation is absolutely spotless with rooms cleaned to a very high standard and towels changed daily.

The hotel and rooms are spotless they are cleaned to a very high standard , I would recommend this Hotel as a great place to stay , its close by to the beach shops and restaurants as well as bars.

The rooms are very clean and tidy the beds are extremely comfortable.

Our ground floor room was very clean and comfortable, with a nice balcony.

Spotless rooms, lovely breakfast and lots of info for other guests arriving who had not visited the island before.

Genuine, friendly and attentive hosts, very clean rooms and a great pool.

Spiros and Hiroko are the best hosts you could wish for and not forgetting Maria who keeps the rooms spotlessly clean can't wait till our next visit.

With spotless rooms cared for by Maria, beautiful gardens tended to by Hiroko and the pool & pool area kept clean and tidy by Spiros, such a great team.

Rooms are immaculately cleaned by Maria, who also helps Hiroko with breakfast.

Our room was spotless and cleaned daily with fresh linen and towels provided also on a daily basis.

Marie the housekeeper was lovely and kept our rooms clean and greeted us as did HIroko  for a continental breakfast each day simple

The structure is excellent, very clean and the rooms are taken care of in every detail, the breakfast is delicious, served by Shiroko with a delicious yogurt.

The rooms are spotless and cleaned every day with fresh towels - Maria who looks after the rooms does a magnificent job .

Rooms are immaculately clean & are in traditional greek style.

It  is immaculately clean and all rooms are decorated to a high standard a real Greek charm about them.

The shower could do with improving as it is tiny and the shower curtain clings to you when washing.

For instance, Zorzis has the same small showers that so many Greek hotels have

Not sure about the other rooms (we got room 10), shower / bathroom is indeed small

Having a small shower space, and then having a curtain instead of a door and walls, leads to the curtain sticking to you and making the shower even smaller.

The only slight downside is that the showers are quite small and need a bit of care as they only have curtains rather than glass screens

The rooms and especially the bathrooms are small.

but I really enjoyed this place; the only thing that I'd flag is how tiny the shower was (but based on my time in other parts of Greece, this seems more common than not).

The room is clean, small with a very small bath.

but the shower was so tiny it was impossible to stop the curtain, which fanned around the shower tray like an umbrella, from sticking to our bodies (don't you just hate that?)

The only downside was the shower was a bit on the small side and the shower head had to be held up rather than mounted above.

The rooms are small and the bathrooms and showers are microscopic.

but room to small and tiny bathroom, only internet in the owner laptop which makes us nervous and that is why we didn't used.

The rooms are small, newly renovated and simply furnished.

Their presumed ownership of the property and small number of rooms (10 in total) allowed for a more personal service usually lacking in larger, commercial hotels.

The rooms themselves are relatively small

Our room was perhaps a bit on the small side

Spiros & Hiroko Hotel

Wifi

Only negatives: 
The pool was unheated and too cold for swimming in October.

Mix of hot and cold breakfast with a Greek twist.

but there was plenty selection from cold meat to full English and American respectively.

If you go during the beginning of May it does get cold at night

Breakfast is served in the lower ground floor of the hotel, and whilst there was a wide range of hot and cold food available, we just had to go for the views.

but very cold, a little heating would have been nice as it is October so the water doesn’t get chance to warm up.

Beware the water is cold and the ladders leading to the pool need to be secured much better.

Pity that both the main pool and the private pool are not temperature  controlled so no one actually used them for a swim at this time of The year when it was still cold.

although we couldn't use it much because of rain and cold water.

We called and asked if it could be hotter and they said the max temperature it can reach was about 30° C (about 86° F), which is way too cold for a hot tub.

but it was so so cold and I struggled to lift myself up the side to get out!

but also so cold that is sometimes unusable also in August, this is not what happened at Astro palace), the room plenty of space, distributed on 2 floors, the bed was comfortable with attention to details.

though was that the shower goes cold to scolding hot constantly.

but was still nice during the day (it was too cold to swim at night when we went, but probably better in mid to late summer).

but we had to call and get it “fixed”/“opened.” The water was extremely cold and was a little disappointing we couldn’t enjoy it.

Think a couple extra little touches would have made it a 5 star rating such as heated private pools (I went in October and it was too cold to use which was a bit disappointing) and a better shower/ bigger bath.

but my friends who had jacuzzis said they were cold and couldn't use them, which would have been very annoying had I paid for a room with one.

Most of the stuff which came was pretty poor and and at best the cooked elements and tea/coffee tepid at best.

The hotel did nothing to warrant a poor review and I am certainly not trying to leave one.

Wifi in the room was also poor and there was only one English speaking tv channel.

The a/c was very poor and our toilet constantly ran.

There was no room for sun loungers beside the poor, not that you would sit there anyway as it was so windy.

The selection of fruit was poor also, no fresh fruit apart from melon.

- Very poor breakfast for a five stars standards - scrambled eggs, a lot of fried dishes, very ordinary cheese, no fresh fruit, just plain coffee (no coffee machine for cappuccino, caffe late etc).

Breakfast was very poor and everyday the same (no 5 star Quality)
Great hotel,

The food selection and quality is poor especially breakfast , the breakfast is the same every day (we came here for 6 nights) and the food is cold .

The breakftast has very low quality and the service was very poor.

The general appearance of the hotel is a bit old-fashioned, with kitch curtains in the lobby and poor furnished rooms.

Limited food choice with the same menu available for lunch and dinner, only one bar (the pool bar) which closed at 11pm on the dot every night regardless of how many people were there, poor bedding, not so great housekeeping, spa mainly used for storing things which we found out when my daughter and I had pedicures at 35 Euro each for 30 minutes - I could go on and on

The breakfast was poor in selection and quality.

Firstly it was expensive for what we thought was no more than a 4 star hotel at best, way too far from Fira to walk, when other reviews say 100 meters then they must be talking about a different hotel, the menu was very poor to say the least and absolutely set with no movement.

Breakfast very poor and should be improved.

The custodial team did an incredible job by continually keeping the grounds and our room clean.

And more than the room was the impeccable service, from the bar to the breakfast (which was so delicious, we looked forward to it daily), to the spa, and the front desk - the staff were so friendly and helpful and made our experience absolutely dreamy.

Worthy of mention are Costas and Demetrius on the bar - so friendly and helpful and Antonia who was cleaning and keeping our room immaculate daily.

The property is gorgeous and our room was immaculate.

The breakfast was fantastic and the rooms were clean new and fresh.

Bed was comfortable, room well-appointed with robes, towels, toiletries, hairdryer etc, with an indoor sitting area and outdoor balcony setting as well.

The room was clean and the bed was amazing.

Housekeeping was fabulous as well, we returned each day to a fresh, clean room with beautiful decorations on the bed.

The hotel, the pool area and the rooms are very clean and the food is great.

Rooms were very clean and the food was amazing.

Our cleaner was so sweet and every day she provided different towel designs on our bed, the room was spotless, and she was so sweet to talk to!

We got a free room upgrade with a private pool and as you can expect the room was IMMACULATE.

The rooms are clean and have patios so you can get a nice view of the ocean.

but excellent reports with this hotel 
staff go above and beyond nothing is a problem ..rooms were spotless and the maid was amazing .breakfast was great 
5min walk to fira town he hired quads which was great to see the island 
would highly recommend

The room is very clean and very romantic, every spot on the hotel make a beautiful picture.

The room was clean and beautifully decorated.

Astro Palace Hotel & Suites

cold

The only downside is you cannot flush toilet paper and that is true of everywhere in Santorini.

but really how much time do you spend in the bathroom?!

We also had a small "kitchenette" area with basic dishes, sink, fridge, etc.

The rooms and bathrooms are on the small side,

The rooms are not huge( particularly the bathrooms)

Room size including the bathroom was a little small

Our only complaint, the room was a bit small and the shower tiny.

The thing you have to be aware of is that this is not a luxury hotel - there is no infinity pool, no mini bar, they do not replace your amenities each day, and the bathroom does flood after a shower.

Only caveat, it was for our last night's stay, that unfortunately the shower water did not heat up.

-Room did not even have a full length mirror!

The room is small and the shower is even smaller,

Room and bathroom were a bit dated and tired

They only cons would be a few details about the rooms (small mirror, no floor length, they comforter  was a little worn),

The first downside of the room was the shower.

The bathroom was dated, particularly the bath/shower and fixtures,

But we think the room we were given (#9) could be better..wifey's back was against the wall and had to slide out to get to the toilet (did we not pay enough? haha).

The only downside was that the bathroom was very small and our room was a little small as well.

Unfortunately the room and bathroom were very, very small.
