I went to Santorini for my solo trip to celebrate my birthday, and I was giving a gorgeous spacious room. Absolutely love the room. Staff where amazing ( both the lady ( she gave me a list of places to go visit and take nice pictures) and the night receptionist), housekeep amazing and lovely as well. Room looks luxurious and very clean. Mario was the driver who picked me from the airport on my arrival, thank you for also helping me during my stay and suggesting places to go, and eat. Thank you everyone for making my birthday week lovely. When I am visiting Santorini, this will be my number 1 hotel to stay. I'll definitely come back.

We loved our stay with Hotel Golden Star so much! This was our first summer holiday with our (nearly) 2 year old and we weren't sure what to expect, but the hotel was amazing and made it a really memorable time. The staff were so incredibly friendly and helpful. Without exception, they all stopped to chat to our son, making a big fuss of him. Nothing we requested was too much, always happy to give us recommendations or book things for us. The pool is beautiful, our toddler loved swimming in it every day and it was actually very quiet in May so we had the pool to ourselves sometimes. The room was sparkling clean and spacious. Great shower and lovely big balcony. We also found the location ideal for what we wanted, very near to the shops, restaurants and local buses. Would recommend this hotel to any family looking for a relaxed stay with a pool and helpful staff.

The only thing to bear in mind is that there isn't a kitchen, so they can provide drinks but not food. Rooms have a fridge so we just bought food from the local supermarket for breakfast. The pool area is escapable for an adventurous toddler, so we had to keep an eye, but that's nothing new when you have a small child anyway!

Beautifully renovated rooms, very crisp and elegant decor, beds comfortable, bathrooms excellent, very clean, outside space kept immaculately clean too (pool and surrounding area), padded sunbeds too. Small fridge in room. Safe. Hairdryer. Pod Illy coffee machine. Staff friendly and helpful. Uphill is the way to the caldera (west coast) and the centre of Fira, you have views to the East coast sea...best of both worlds, once you get your bearings....also the bus depot is close by for easy access across the island.

If you have walking difficulties, this may not be suitable for you. Steps up to the reception and upto the rooms and down to the poolside or down to poolside rooms. .

It was modern fresh and clean with a short walk to the centre but faraway not to hear any noise. We stayed a week the main person we saw was the cleaner who always cleaned our room and was very polite and professional

20 rooms minimum 40 people but only 14 sun-beds and a seated area. Don’t get me wrong it seems to work well but SOME guests believe they can put a towel on a bed and disappear for hours! Please add a sign saying if you leave take your towel! It’s not Spain! Not the fault of the hotel but it could very well be added to your Do’s and Do Nots Other than that we have had an amazing time and would highly recommend

Pros: - extremely clean - friendly and helpful receptionists - very nice cleaner who did lovely towel decorations - beautiful views of sunrise, and lots of morning sun on the balcony - plenty of sun loungers and other seating areas, pool area is very nice - great location with a short uphill walk to the main area of Fira

Cons: - Right on a main road so can be noisy - no soundproofing so can hear every footstep and conversation - be mindful of low ceiling in maisonette room (not a bother, though the position of the table with TV makes it quite hard to get around the bed especially with the low railing).

Beautiful hotel. Spotlessly clean. Maid service daily. All staff very friendly and cheerful. Efficient quiet air conditioning. Pool area never crowded and got a sun bed every day. We had room 9 which had a balcony with a view over the pool and onwards to the sea a few miles away on the East side towards the airport, not over the Caldera. Alcoholic drinks available to buy in reception as well as bottled water only €2 for 1.5 litres, cheaper than town and didn’t have to carry it. No food available at the hotel but dozens of restaurants in town which was only about 350 metres to the centre, but up hill. Be aware if you have walking or breathing difficulties. A convenience store is just 250 meters from the hotel. You can order take away food via delivery app WOLT. Very efficient. We recommend https://elgrecosantorini.gr to eat in and they deliver free too. We ordered a wood fired pizza which was cooked and delivered to our room in less than 20 minutes. Be aware that Google Maps Street Street View is out of date and ElGreco has been expanded and upgraded so see their web site Nearly opposite El Greco is another recommendation https://www.pelicankipos.com

Overall, apart from not serving any food, and the 350 metre walk up hill, it’s superb.

Nice spacious room, good bed, friendly staff and just a small walk to the center.

Airco was filthy and placed such that it blows in your face. Gave me a sore throat.

We spent 3 nights in a triple room with terrace and enjoyed our stay. The hotel is ideally located 2 minutes from the city center, in a quiet area. The rooms are fully modernized and extremely clean. The swimming pool was very pleasant, a real asset for cooling off. The staff was friendly and always ready to help.

A negative point tarnished our stay: the rooms' sound insulation is poor. On two of the nights, we had to endure the screams of young party-loving neighbors until past 2AM. I complained to the staff but unfortunately nothing changed. As compensation for the inconvenience, the hotel offered the taxi ride to the port, an appreciated commercial gesture.

The hotel is very modern and clean.My hotel room was beautiful and tidy;the bed was very comfortable and big.The balcony gave us a amazing view during the night and day.The bathroom was very tidy and a good size.Room service was available every day and the cleaning staff always did such a wonderful job.Mario and Anastasia were especially helpful at showing us all the activities available and giving good restaurant recommendations.Finding good breakfast places was not a issue as the town centre is less than 3 minutes away,with a variety of options.The pool is very big and the water is very clean,there is a small jacuzzi too.The pool area is spacious and has comfortable pool chairs.Although it is very sunny there are big umbrellas by the chairs,which help bring in shade.

N/a

We liked that we were just minutes from the main streets of Fira, and walking distance to the beautiful towns, and the way to Oía. I mean the views were amazing. It had parking for our ATV rentals, with a swimming pool, and friendly staff. If you like walking it will be perfect as it’s at the bottom of a street, you have to walk up to the main streets.

I wish it had breakfast included for the cost of each night. No kitchen in the hotel. It has a coffee espresso, they provide the first day with coffee then you have to buy which I didn’t even know where to go, not big deal.
