The hostess is the sweetest, friendliest lady. Overall, this is a great option for those who want a good value, at a location that is walking distance to everything in Fira. Plus, if you do rent a car, there's plenty of free parking right at the property. We really enjoyed staying at the Pension Ptolemeos. .

The bathroom is tiny. On the upside, the shower did have a shower curtain (many of the other locations we stayed at featured the more modern, open showers, which I find to be silly, because you end up spraying the whole bathroom every time you take a shower). Our unit had a mini-fridge but no cooktop or sink outside the bathroom (something that the next-door unit had). The extra bed that was added to accommodate the fourth person in our group was a very uncomfortable chair that opened up into a bed. I would not recommend this for an adult.

Exceptional stay – the host, location & facilities every traveller dreams of! Katerina was an amazing host - so kind and thoughtful. She let us check in early, gave great local tips, and made sure we had everything we needed. The room was big, bright, and super comfy it was best sleep we’ve had in ages! (Great bed and pillows). The location couldn’t have been better – right by the main street, near a supermarket, and everything was within walking distance!! When we asked for bowls for our breakfast, she happily provided them with a treat too, which was such a lovely touch. We’ve been travelling for a while now, and it’s hosts like Katerina who truly make a place and a trip special. Thank you so much!

Everything was great!

We had a wonderful stay at Pension Ptolemeos! 1. The host, Katerina, is a kind and caring elderly lady. She was always ready to help with any questions we had about Santorini, and she provided us with great support during our stay. From changing the bed sheets daily to offering a microwave for heating food, she made us feel truly at home. 2. The accommodation offers great value for money. It’s in an excellent location—just a short walk to the center of Fira—making it super convenient for shopping and dining. 3. We also loved the private swimming pool just outside our room! It was the perfect place to relax, soak in the cool water, and enjoy the warmth of the Mediterranean sun.

Katerina was so lovely and helpful. Treated us like family and helped with everything we asked for. We had a triple room which was perfect. There was plenty of space for luggage and a big wardrobe with a safe. Everything was so clean and well presented. The bathroom was basic, no different from other hotels we’ve stayed throughout Europe. We had a little balcony overlooking the pool which was gorgeous. There was a little table and chairs and also a small pullout clothes line. The beds and linen were so comfortable as were the pillows. It felt so safe was quiet. The bus stop, shops and eateries are no more than a 5 minute walk which was perfect for us. Katerina stored our luggage after checkout. If I go to Santorini again I’ll be sure to stay here again. Such a great price too

We stayed at this hotel for two days, and the service was absolutely top-notch. We never felt the lack of anything during our stay, and every small detail was thoughtfully taken care of. The location was perfect, conveniently close to the bus station and Fira, making it incredibly easy for us to explore the area. A special mention goes to Memoza, who was extremely helpful and guided us with everything we needed. We are truly thankful for her support. For convenience, I would rate this place 10 out of 10. Everything was managed perfectly. The hotel provided us with morning snacks and water, which added to the comfort of our stay. Our room was fantastic, with a very comfortable bed and a balcony where we enjoyed spending time. Every aspect of our stay was flawless, and we never once felt homesick. This hotel truly made us feel at home!

We were warmly greeted by a lovely lady who was incredibly kind and highly knowledgeable about the island. She gave us a map and took the time to explain the main landmarks. She then showed us to our room, which was spotless, very spacious, and already cooled with air conditioning—a welcome relief as it was around 34 degrees outside. There’s also a small communal pool, which was a pleasant bonus. The location is perfect: right in the heart of Fira. Just outside the hotel, there’s a great spot for breakfast and a convenient quad rental place. The center of Fira is just a 3-minute walk away.

The bathroom could use a bit of refurbishment.

The property was perfect! The amenities were stunning (the pool was the perfect way to relax and cool off), and the location was prime. Everything was perfectly clean, and nothing was ever dirty. The internet worked perfectly as well. Most importantly, the staff were amazing. The older lady that owns the place was literally the sweetest person ever, along with her partner that worked the reception. They both cared deeply that our stay was good, and helped us with directions and booking cabs. I would recommend this to anyone wanting a relaxing stay in Fira Santorini, close to nightlife and restaurants while being far enough away that it is not loud.

Very clean, beautiful apartments with a Pool and a Terrace, the style is very “ Santorini”! And close to central bus station （almost no staircase between bus station and the apartment）, restaurant, shops, Fira center and supermarket, all in few minutes walk, but quiet. An ideal place to stay in Santorini! Plus, the host is very kind!

The shower space is a bit small, but it should not be a problem for most people.

Good size room, clean with daily room service, helpful host. Small fridge and water kettle was nice to have. Only 10 minutes from the bus station. Bonus: small swimming pool.

We didn’t like that the host who lives in the building didn’t respond to terrible behavior of group of drank German young tourists who over the entire night screamed and slammed the doors across different rooms making nightmare for us.

Very successful stay. The hotel is close to the center, cafes and restaurants, and at the same time in a quiet area without the noise of crowds of tourists. Clean room with a very nice terrace overlooking the pool. Very nice service, the owner Mrs. Katerina is a super nice person. We recommend to anyone who wants to feel the atmosphere of Greek Santorini at a good price and at the same time relax from the very many people visiting this island. Greetings from Krakow Mrs. Katerina 🤗
