We recently returned from a 4 night stay at the Ira. I read all of the reviews on here and didn't really understand the majority of complaints. As far as the hotel being too "hilly", excuse me people and look around. The entire AREA is on a cliff. How exactly are they supposed to build the buildings and make the... More

We stayed 3 nights in IRA hotel end of May. Hotel is really nice, with multiple terraces, a small swimming pool and a sensational view on the volcano and the city of Firostefani. We were delighted by the service staff, which was very welcoming and helpful. Nevertheless, we spent a first awful night in the first room we had. Because... More

Given our great experience, I was curious about the handful of negative reviews here, so I’ll give my perspective on the issues a few others raised in a moment. But first... Rule number one: If you go to Greece, you have to go to Santorini. Otherwise... More

We booked this room through a travel agent as part of our Greek Honeymoon. This hotel was excellent, and by far the best we stayed in during our trip. The room we had was very unique, had two levels, a balcony and a Caldera view. The woman at the front desk was EXTREMELY helpful, and put up with all of... More

My stay at Hotel Ira was amazing from beginning to end, I was sad to leave! The hotel organised a car to pick us up at the airport and leave us to the port to catch a ferry when we were leaving. We stayed in one of the cave style rooms and although didn't have a view of the ocean... More

My wife and I stayed at hotel Ira for 5 nights while on our honeymoon. We arrived in Santorini by ferry and were met at the port by a car sent from the hotel. When we arrived at the hotel we greeted by the very friendly owners and upgraded to a bigger room. The room was fantastic, large, bright and... More

All we can say about this hotel is that the staff and the hotel itself were amazing. We even had somone from the hotel offer... More

We were glad we chose to stay in Firostefani and we were so wowed by the location of Ira Hotel - beautiful view of the Caldera and of Fira town. The place is cheerful and charming. We hired a car so it was very convenient for us to go to any part of Santorini from Ira Hotel. Staff are all... More
