Platia has a great location, a short walk to the Fira bus terminal and taxi drop off. I arrived via ferry so it was an easy walk to the hotel. And its location in terms of the Fira action is great! Good dining options (affordable) very near and just a short walk to the higher-priced caldera view restaurants. The room was super clean, refrigerator for snacks, cold AC and a great shower! I can highly recommend. Good communication with the staff also!

We stayed in room 2. Quiet room, even though located in the heart of Fira. Minutes away from everything: taxi and bus terminals, restaurants and cafés, and endless shopping. Would definitely stay again. 😊

Close to everything
We got there early but Jimmy made sure we were comfortable and got our room ready for us. It is only a short walk from the bus hub. The shopping and sunset trail is right across the street. Lots of restaurants right in front. Highly recommended! Would stay there again.

The location of the hotel couldn’t be more perfect, offering breathtaking views of the iconic Santorini landscapes. Waking up to the mesmerizing sunrise and relaxing with the stunning sunset was truly unforgettable.
What made my stay even more special was the exceptional hospitality provided by the host Christina and Jimmy. They were incredibly attentive to the guests’ needs and went above and beyond to ensure every detail was taken care of.
The hotel itself had a charming and cozy ambiance. Even though the room was a little smaller than we expected, it was clean, comfortable, and tastefully decorated, providing a relaxing retreat after a day of exploration.
We highly recommend Platia hotel!

Enjoyable Hotel.
The hotel is nice, very clean and it's right in the middle of the action. Though this hotel is not on the cliff overlooking the caldera, it's very close by.

AMAZING!!
This place was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING.
The location: could not have been more perfect. Half way between the cliffs and the bus stop. Right above the main shops. Made getting everywhere so easy. Literally all you had to do was step outside.
The room: SPARKLING CLEAN. The bed was so comfortable. The AC worked amazingly. The bathroom was roomy and the rainfall shower was the best thing to ever happen to me. The balcony was perfect and was a great place to people watch while eating the gelato we bought across the street. Surprisingly not noisey at all and we could sleep very well even being so close to the action.
The host: I cannot say enough good things about the host here. Upon check in- which was very easy- we found we had left our wallet in the transfer. Our host called around to all of the transfer companies and even THE POLICE and ended up helping us find the wallet!!! We would have been completely lost without her and we can’t thank her enough. You want someone like this helping your vacation!!
Overall, this was the perfect place to stay. In budget, close to everything, clean, comfortable. If you are debating this at all, don’t. Book it!

Excellent little hotel!
Hotel Platia is a great little escape from the busyness of Santorini with a wonderful welcome. The location is outstanding, but it was very quiet, the compact room was very nicely done had everything we could have wanted, it was spotlessly clean, and we enjoyed the view from the rooftop patio and being away from the crowds. Christina makes you feel like a guest in her home; actually it really was her in-laws home before being made into a hotel. Very highly recommended.

One Night in Fira
This was a perfect one-night stop in Santorini. We booked it last minute because our ferry was canceled and we had to stay on the island an additional night. Christine (the owner) was the MOST accommodating, and truly fantastic. She helped us with everything, and could not have been more lovely. We didn't end up spending the night because we got on an earlier boat- and she made checking out quickly very easy as well. Highly recommend!
