Best Hotels near Akron Art Centre Dimitrios Bellos, Santorini

We visited mid September with Jet2. Overall an excellent holiday, although we discovered that it is a very busy island, especially the main towns of Fira and Oia inundated with cruise ship holidaymakers. We knew that Santorini was expensive (and it is!) so we treated ourselves for our 60th birthdays. What we loved about the hotel: Small (15 rooms) in a quiet location; beautifully decorated & appointed rooms; Excellent service from the staff; amazing views; the free bus service to the lovely beach (and great beach club) and to Fira; beautiful village within close walking distance (10-15 mins) with excellent restaurants What we were not so impressed with: Pool area lacked shade. We appreciate that it can be a very windy location, but on calmer days they should put up more sail type shades. We would witness people trying to hide from the sun under tables or against a wall. Also we didn’t like the music blaring non stop. It was not suitable for a chilled vibe atmosphere - ‘driving home for Christmas’ being one of the pop songs! Suspect the music was played to try and create some form of atmosphere - but the lack of sun cover and incessant music kept us away. We had booked a first floor (top) room but were ‘upgraded’ to a ground floor room. Whilst it benefited from a small patio area overlooking the car park, you could hear people walking in the room above. I would have preferred our original room. For a Fireworks Festival Dinner we were told that the dining room was fully booked and that we would have to sit outside. Absolutely fine by us as the dining room is pretty basic, lighting too bright and again lacked atmosphere. However when we arrived at our appointed time, all the outside tables had been taken and we were shown a table inside. Guests who had booked the restaurant area had obviously decided to sit outside . Not impressed, although the staff did hastily move a table outside for us.

I booked this hotel solely based on the excellent reviews but I was debating about the location as it is not in the tourist spots. This hotel deserves all the excellent reviews! The manager, Maggy, as well as all the staff, is very nice and helpful. They really care about the guests and make every effort to make the guests comfortable. Maggy arranged all the transportation, including to the airport and to catch the tours, and local restaurants. When we went out for a hiking and got tired, I just sent her a message and she arranged a car to pick us up! Top notch services by the Nano Suites team. As for the location, it is so tranquil and beautiful that we even hate to leave the hotel. Try to enjoy a breakfast, a drink and sunrise view from the patio. You won’t regret booking this hotel - highly recommended!

Compared to oia and fira, the location of this hotel is relatively quiet, but the scenery of the cliff is still great

The villa environment is not bad, the service is also very good, that is, it is not convenient to travel without a car. If the local car rental is a very good choice, very quiet place, especially suitable for couples on vacation

Anna, the owner, was always kind and her facilities, including the room and swimming pool, were better than expected. Walking for about 10 minutes on foot, there is a bus stop, so it was appropriate to look around Santorini. The breakfast was delicious and the puppy was cute!!

We stayed at Nissos for a week as a group of 13 (+ baby) for a friends wedding and the hotel was perfect for us! The staff were all absolutely lovely, so relaxed and incredibly accommodating. The location is smack bang in the middle of Thira as well as being minutes from the bus station to explore the rest of the island. Couldn’t recommend staying here more- definitely request the room with the mega terrace overlooking the pool- iconic. Thanks again to all the staff you made our week wonderful!

We are so happy with had the opportunity to meet our Hostess Arestides he was above and beyond exceptional. He was helpful and he was able to get our transportation to the airport the correct time. Also, any restaurant reservation he was able to take care that for us and suggested great restaurant by the area by calling the restaurant I making sure we get a table with a nice view. He was very nice explaining everything to us when we arrive to the hotel and show us all the highlights of the island the best beaches and places to go. We felt safe and happy everything we will go to the front desk, and he was there to assist us. I can't thank you enough for all you time and hospitality. we are so happy we stayed there. The staff were so friendly, the rooms were immaculate. It was so peaceful and safe. I loved our pool right outside of our room 101, and the breakfast was delicious. The hotel is not too far from the center to Fira by walk about 7 minutes. Thank you again Arestides and the entire Staff.

I cannot emphasize enough how amazing this hotel and the owners and staff are .. I have a 12yo autistic son who has never been abroad and hates change and pretty much everything ... I had been able to speak to the owners before hand and explain and wow they went wayyyy above what you would expect to accommodate us.. the hotel is gorgeous 2 pools and areas 1 more quiet with pool shower toilets and apartments with hot tubs clean cool air con obv .. no trouble is too much .. fridge and kettle with some don't have !! The. In the main hotel there are more apartments and rooms all beautiful clean and well laid out (we had 2 Apts) the pool for that side is more social with a bar and lots of couple type sofas and beds over the pool beautiful at night all lit up .. breakfast is served here and again beautiful breakfast ..it's the staff that make it tho especially Anna Marie and her family .. not only is she beautiful on the outside she is gorgeous with her thoughts and caring ... My son would not have stayed had they not been able to do all the extra bits. (Balloons toys quiet area etc ). We will come back again when we can . And it will be to here !! I just can't recommend enough .. kamari is the beach side for want of better description.. it's a ***** of beautiful restaurants cafes on level with the beach no steap steps like the other side of the island .. so straight into hot black sand .. wear beach socks! There is no tide as such and children can Wade out a fair bit before it drops so snorkeling at the edge of the sea next to us was possible ... Plenty of choice of type of restaurants but obv fish is an excellent choice .. oh and sorbet .. there is a small steep hill to get to the hotel (obv cars drop off and collect Inc taxis if u need them we hired a car ) but got used to that after a few days and I have a very bad back and hip! But prepare for stairs as they are everywhere except the front ***** in kamari it's quite level .. anyway hope the pics do some justice ..

Fantastic spot to stay in Santorini. The view of the caldera was a beautiful sight to start each day during our stay. The staff was friendly and catered to all of our needs and wishes. The room is very nicely decorated with a simplistic touch. 5/5 overall, definitely need to stay there when you visit Santorini!

This place is wonderful! We had a very relaxing time. The balcony was delightful with a wonderful view of the little neighborhood and its churches as well as a view of the sea in the distance. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom quite nice. The kitchen had just about what we needed, though it was challenging to figure out how the hot plate worked and the Keurig required several pumps to make an American-sized cup of coffee. The breakfast delivered to our room was very nice, although there was too much food and we should have ordered one breakfast to share each day. Our main disappoin**ent was for some reason we thought we booked a room with a pool, because the photo showed it in our reservation. That was not the case, only a few units have pools. On the other hand it was too cool in early October to use it in the evening and morning, and we were usually out in the heat of the afternoon. We rented a car and found it stressful to drive in and out of the main entrance, where there was a sharp curve nearby and cars coming very fast from that direction. It was about a 10-minute drive to the town, not bad, but if I had to do it again I would check the bus schedule.
