Majestic Hotel

We stayed at the Majestic after reading reviews and scrutinizing the website - and it was a great pick. Super friendly and helpful staff - only translation issue we had was when they said “shops” we thought they were saying “soaps”! No worries - we figured that out after a day. Breakfast included and it is really all you could ever want - all types of foods pastries. Pools were clean and well tended. Pool bartender, Giannis, was always making craft cocktails for us- surprising us with new creations every evening. Hotel is conveniently located a five min walk to supermarket and town center of Fira. Highly recommend.

This hotel is lovely, beautiful pool area, lovely restaurant & rooms very clean. The paintwork on the room walls was a little shabby for a 5 star hotel & should have been touched up before guests were allocated. Reception staff very helpful and pleasant as were the poolside bar staff with the exception of Petros who constantly hung around us & talked about badly needing money because he was about to become a father even though we generously tipped him on each occasion! But the biggest shock was that he offered to supply my husband with a “woman” if and when he wanted one!!!! My husband made it clear that his offer wouldn’t be required & felt very uncomfortable in his presence after this! My husband told me about this when we got home so it wouldn’t make me uncomfortable too! We would not come back to this hotel for this reason & this reason only!!!

We stayed in a family room - two adults, two children ages 9 and 11. The large bed was located in an upper loft in the room. We had plenty of space for all of us. There are two pools, and one of them was heated - a must for our visit, which was in early May. My kids really enjoyed our time spent at the pool. The pool bar had a good selection of food at reasonable prices - we ate there a couple of times. Breakfast was a very good selection of food. The hotel was just a 10 minute walk from Fira, which we found to put it in an ideal location - just far enough from the crowds, but just close enough that you didn't mind walking into Fira each evening for dinner. There was also a grocery store that was even closer, and we stopped there a few times to pick up snacks and cheap bottled water. The caldera is just across the street from the hotel - you do not want your room to be on the caldera side, as the busy road will cause traffic noise. We were on the opposite side of the hotel, the east side - this is still a sea view, as the island of Santorini is so skinny you can see the sea on both sides. I would definitely recommend this hotel.
