Margarita Hotel

Our stay at Margarita was amazing and we would highly recommend staying here. Elisa was so attentive, friendly and helpful. She talked us through the island and helped us plan our stay. We booked a double room but were upgraded for free to the suite which was amazing! The price of this hotel was very reasonable for Fira. Breakfast was included in our stay and had a good selection of food. The room was spacious, spotlessly clean, and nicely decorated. The bed was clean and very comfortable, and we had a coffee table and chairs, and make up vanity section. There was space to hang up clothes, keep suitcases and a fridge. The bathroom was huge with a big bath tub and an overhead rainfall shower. There were plenty of soft white towels and complimentary toiletries. Our little terrace had a private jacuzzi but this was an additional cost. We didnt use it as we were not in the room much as we were busy exploring, and it isnt the most secluded. The little terrace area had a table and chairs but did not have anywhere to hang swimsuits which wouldve been useful. Our room was close to the street, but it was not particularly noisy, even at night, and did not disturb us but I would recommend earplugs if youre very sensitive to noise. The location was great, it was away from the town centre, making it quiet and peaceful, but easily accessible on foot (5-10 mins walk). It is close to shops, restaurants and bakeries etc. and is central on the island, making it a great location to explore every corner of Santorini. The swimming pool and pool bar were amazing. The area was so clean and decorated well. It was never busy and you could always find a sun lounger. On our last day they let us stay by the pool all day even after we had checked out. We had lunch from the pool bar and the food was delicious and very reasonably priced. There was a wide variety of food and drinks to choose from. Elisa helped us get a good deal with our airport transfer.

There was a small shower room near the pool which was useful, however, it did not have a toilet, the shower head was not attached the wall, there was no hook to hang your clothes or towel on, and no shelf to put your toiletries on. The nearest toilet was through reception, which was not close to the pool. It would be great if the hotel could renovate the shower room and upgrade the facilities as this would improve the experience by the pool massively. Im hopeful that this is something they will do as they seem to be continually improving the hotel. Our only other issue was there was no bedroom bin, but this wasnt a huge concern as the cleaners still took our rubbish that we left in a pile e.g. empty water bottles etc. However these issues didnt impact the quality of stay and we would still highly recommend staying at this hotel!
