The Hotel Matina is clean, friendly and comfortable. Staff a welcoming from beginning and throughout providing you with good information for your stay in Santorini. With someone at the hotel 24 hours a day there is always someone on hand for guests. The hotel is immaculately clean with rooms cleaned daily. Cleaners are so friendly and polite. The pool area is beautiful and well set out with sun beds, tables and chairs. There is a pool bar for guests use. Alcohol across Santorni is expensive averaging €6 - €9 euro for a beer and €10 - €15 euro a cocktail. Breakfast served daily has a good choice available both hot and cold. Sometimes breakfast could be very busy and there was a little wait for items to be topped up. But if you ask staff for something they are very willing to help . The room (no 37) was bright and had everything you need including fridge and safe. Key sage was included and available from reception. Bathroom was compact and shower quite small but there was everything you need. Balcony was overlooking a pretty garden and had a lovely traditional feel. The hotel cats are often around and about and are very sweet but do not hassle you. They are more than happy to have a friendly fuss and are well cared for. The hotel location is set back from the road which is excellent as the road can be busy. Bring set back makes the location more peaceful and relaxing. Ancient Thera is located close by. You can take the minibus opposite the hotel for €15 euro per person and takes only 10 minutes to arrive. Beware, you will need to pay again to enter ancient Thera which is €6. To visit you need to be fully able and comfortable with heights. You will need good stable footwear as the walk is over rocks and gravel and a steep climb in parts. There are no toilets there and one expensive kiosk so take water with you. Kamari is a tourist village so be prepared for restaurants trying to coax you in and to pay tourist prices. Dana’s is the closest restaurant with good quality food at reasonable prices. The local bakery on the same street is excellent for cakes, sandwiches and pastries. The hotel also arranged airport transfers for us at €25 euro each way for 2 people. I would recommend this as good value and hassle free. Overall this is a lovely hotel to stay at, well maintained, pretty and very clean with fabulous staff. You won’t be disappointed with this hotel.
