Galatia Villas
Next to the Laografik Museum

The 10-room, Galatia Villas is a second-generation family-run value property set in a residential area at the edge of central Fira, Santorini's capital. While there are plenty of restaurants and attractions within walking distance, the steep climb into town might be a challenge for some. Rooms are clean and simple, with flat-screen TVs and mini-fridges plus sea-view balconies in many rooms. The tiny pool is a pleasant place to cool off, and though a continental breakfast is provided, it is not included. Rates are a major bargain here, but Tzekos Villas has rooms right on the edge of the island's famous caldera and a larger pool, though prices are higher.

Hotel Leta
25is Martiou, 25 Martioy

Hotel Leta is a budget option in Fira, but the low rates and walkable location come with a lot of trade-offs that we're not sure are worth making.  The hotel is located off of a busy traffic road in Fira and nestled into a hill surrounded by donkey paths and a mix of hotels and residences. Expect about a 10-minute walk uphill to Fira's caldera. Some of the 23 rooms have been recently upgraded to include nice bedding and rainfall showers, but the cheaper rooms are dated and have tiny showers with clingy fabric curtains. Other than a small communal swimming pool, free coffee, and free Wi-Fi, there are no features to be found. As an alternative, Hotel Keti overlooks the caldera and serves free breakfast -- though prices are slightly higher. 

Theoxenia Boutique Hotel
Fira Downtown, Caldera (via d'oro)

The three-pearl Theoxenia Boutique Hotel is a good compromise for travelers who are willing to trade sweeping caldera views and lots of on-site amenities for low rates and a walkable Fira location. The hotel is built on a bustling pedestrian street about as close to the caldera as you can get without being on the caldera in Fira. The nine rooms are nicely maintained and include flat-screen TVs, air-conditioning, and free Wi-Fi. Though all units have an outdoor space, some terraces are shared and only a few of the rooms have distant views of the caldera. Continental breakfast can be delivered to rooms for a fee and there's an unheated communal whirlpool, but no pool. Guests get free access to the pool, gym, and parking at nearby Aressana Spa Hotel and Suites -- so it might be easier to book a room there. 

Antonia Apartments
Fira Town City Center

Antonia Apartments is a family-owned budget hotel located near Fira's main square. Shopping, restaurants, bars, and the bus station are all within a short walk. It shares a lobby bar, outdoor splash pool, and other public spaces with its sister property, Antonia Hotel Santorini. The property's 10 apartments include simple, slightly dated Studios and One-Bedroom units. All have balconies, kitchenettes, flat-screen TVs, and free Wi-Fi, and the larger units have sitting areas with sofa beds. The hotel provides free shuttle service to and from the port and airport. Travelers might want to also consider the Loucas Hotel, which has a bigger pool, serves breakfast, and is located closer to the cable cars that go to the Old Port, but rates will be higher. 

Porto Fira Suites
Caldera Cliffs, Fira

Porto Fira Suites is an upscale, boutique hotel with pristine whitewashed stone walls and spectacular views of the sea and caldera. While it feels private, it's only a five-minute walk from the shops, restaurants, and nightlife in the heart of Fira. The property's 13 Suites feature chic, minimalistic decor and modern amenities like rainfall showers, minibars, and private furnished terraces, where guests can eat their breakfast, served in-room daily. Upgraded Suites add outdoor whirlpool tubs, sofa beds, and other extras. The hotel has a luxurious infinity pool plus a restaurant and bar, all situated among the property's layers of sea-view terraces -- the downside is that there are a lot of steps. Guests may want to compare rates with the Athina Luxury Suites, a similar property situated right next door.

Panorama Boutique Hotel
Ipapantis Walkway, Panorama Boutique Hotel

The Panorama Boutique Hotel is an upscale, 15-room property set cliffside in Fira, overlooking the stunning caldera. The property takes full advantage of the views, with vantage points from its chic rooftop lounge, swimming pool, and the balcony of every room. Rooms are fresh and contemporary with nice amenities -- though most bathrooms are small. For a lot more space without losing the views check out the Enigma Apartments & Suites just along the cliff, but lose the pool and bar areas. 

Astro Palace Hotel and Suites
Eikostis Pemptis Martiou

Astro Palace Hotel & Suites is not quite the five-star property it bills itself as, but it is a solid value for an upscale resort located just about a 10-minute, semi-uphill walk from the bustling center of Fira with its plethora of restaurants, shops, and beaches. The property has an esteemed on-site spa with a serene vibe and indoor whirlpool, plus a sauna. The restaurant Pleiades earns kudos for lunch and dinner, but past guests have complained about the quality of free breakfasts. Wi-Fi and parking are free and guests can borrow iPads. Rooms and suites have cool architectural details like loft spaces and small private pools, but lack the traditional Cyclades style found on the rest of the island and some feature single beds pushed together. It may be worth comparing rates at Lilium Villas Santorini, a hotel with stylish modern flair and many of the same facilities.

Nomikos Villas
Caldera Firostefani

Nomikos Villas is a straightforward mid-range boutique hotel with a walkable and scenic location on the edge of the caldera in Fira. It's within easy walking distance of countless restaurants and souvenir shops, but it's about a 10-minute walk to the heart of the village (and ferry port), so there's a bit more privacy and quiet. The 15 elegant guest rooms offer a range of conveniences from wet bars to sleeping lofts, but not all of them have private balconies and some have tube-style TVs. A free continental breakfast is delivered to guest rooms and there's a pool bar by the plunge pool and whirlpool. There's certainly little to complain about here, but Ilioperato Traditional Apartments is a lot more stylish and has a full restaurant and much better free breakfast for around the same price. 

Evgenia Villas & Suites
Fira to the Folklore Museum

The Evgenia Villas & Suites is a three-pearl boutique hotel within a 10-minute walk to Fira's scenic caldera. The 14 cave-style rooms have been updated to include minibars and lovely tiled bathrooms; some have furnished balconies overlooking the swimming pool or the Aegean Sea shimmering in the distance. The outdoor swimming pool has a club vibe with dance music and stylish sun loungers (but no view) and a hip bar. There's a charge for daily Greek continental breakfast and no other meals are served at the hotel. Staff is especially helpful and hands on for suggesting tours and excursions. Note that parking is down the street in an abandoned movie theater. For access to the same features, but sleeker rooms, check rates at the adjacent sister hotel: San Marino Suites

San Marino Suites
Fira to the Folklore Museum

San Marino Suites is an upscale boutique hotel that offers the hippest aesthetic we've seen in Santorini. The seven suites (including one romantic villa with a private pool) manage to artfully combine traditional cave-style architecture with Mid-century modern accents and high-tech features. The outdoor swimming pool has a club vibe with dance music and stylish sun loungers (but no view) and a hip bar. There's a charge for the Greek continental breakfast and no other meals are served at the hotel. The major downside for this price point is that the hotel is located a 10-minute walk to Fira's scenic caldera, but there are sunrise views of the Aegean Sea from the rooms and a large lawn peppered with olive trees and hammocks. Travelers who want a boutique hotel with breathtaking caldera views should check rates at Aria Suites Hotel -- but rooms aren't as sleek.
