Reviews and Ratings
Staying at the Ambassador Hotel in Akrotiri, Santorini was an amazing and unique experience. The hotel's quirky charm and attentive staff truly make it a relaxing and enjoyable destination. However, considering the overall cost, some may find it on the pricey side.
Staying at the Ambassador was a mix of stunning views and fitness challenges. The rooms provided breathtaking views but required a lot of stair climbing for some. Missing coffee was a downside, but the scenic location was worth it despite being far from bustling areas like Fira and Oia.
The hotel offers breathtaking views and maintains a high level of cleanliness expected for the price paid. While the views are stunning, the distant location from Fira and Oia may be inconvenient for accessing restaurants and shops.
The hotel is nestled into the mountainside, offering impressive rooms with the best views on the island. The location is fantastic, secluded yet close to main towns, creating a lavish and tranquil atmosphere. Service is top-notch, friendly, and attentive. However, the lack of nearby amenities and an extra charge for a short stop at a supermarket stand out as drawbacks.
