I recently returned from a 3 night stay at the Hotel King Thiras in Santorini, Greece. Being a middle aged, independent, solo female traveler, I look for affordable, safe, clean, and conveniently located properties. I prefer smaller B&B type places with personable staff. The Hotel King Thiras met all of my needs. This is a budget place, so nothing fancy,... More

It may not be modern or have a volcano view, but it is extremely clean and the owner is very friendly and kind. If you are looking for just a place to stay then this hotel should be your first choice.

My title says it all. We stayed at the King Thiras for 6 nights and we were very pleased. It is a clean, well-run, family-style hotel up from the hustle-bustle of Fira, very close to the caldera, and yet within an easy walk to the heart of the city. This is a simple, basic, clean, and quiet place to stay... More

Excellent budget hotel. Very good quiet location next to big car parking. Fira center is only 3-4 minutes walking distance and 1-2 minutes from caldera. But the biggest advantage of this hotel is the people that own it. Mr Manolis and his wife are very kind and always looking for ways to help you and enjoy your stay. He was... More

We arrived late in the afternoon and was greeted by Manuel the owner of the hotel. A pleasant man who gave us suggestions as to where to go, places to eat, use of public transporation etc. The place is walking distance from the town center and is a safe place to walk at night after an evening spent in the...

Stayed for one night on recommendation from a friend. The hotel has no pool or anything like that but it is charming clean and a fantastic base for a short stay. The owner picked me up from the airport and arranged for transport to the ferry port free of charge which was lovely of him. It is just a short... More

We stayed there two years ago back in August 2010 for 4 days. The hotel is very basic, clean, no pool however it is very affordable, walking distance to Fira (about 10 min or so) and Mr. Manolis is very pleasant to deal with! I also liked the view from our hotel! They also offered traditional greek breakfast, nothing fancy... More

King thiras is a small hotel in Fira, but without the city-noise. Its cheap, VERY CLEAN, and the owner mr Manolis is very helpful. You can park your car outside the hotel. If you are not seeking for luxury but a decent place to sleep, this is a hotel for you. There is no pool in this hotel, but its... More

Stayed three nights and were very happy with all aspects of the hotel. It started with the manager picking the three of us up from the bus depot, having arrived on the ferry from Crete. He also drove us to the bus station on leaving the hotel. The hotel is located close to the old town and the cliff tops... More
