安靜的飯店,服務人員非常親切,有問題都非常快的解決,有在回來還會選擇這間飯店。
Pros:

非常喜歡飯店的地點,可以從陽台看到美麗的海灣,安靜的飯店,遊客不會走到客房區,早餐會送到房間,可以坐在陽台享用。最後一天因為飛機是在晚上,飯店提供了一間房間免費讓我們可以使用到出發,這一點真的很貼心。

Cons:

下午的陽光非常曬,無法長期坐在陽台享受。

Une très belle expérience dans un cadre exceptionnel, avec une vue magnifique et un personnel aux petits soins.
Pros:

Très bel hôtel, idéalement situé avec une magnifique vue sur la Caldera et tout Imerovigli. Les chambres sont troglodytes et toutes différentes, il ne faut donc pas forcément s’attendre à retrouver exactement la chambre vue sur les photos, mais c’est aussi ce qui fait le charme et le côté atypique de l’établissement.

Notre chambre était belle, propre et très confortable, avec une literie de qualité. La vue depuis la chambre était tout simplement magnifique sur Imerovigli et la Caldera.

Le petit-déjeuner, servi exclusivement en room service, peut être pris dans la chambre ou sur la terrasse. Il est bon, même s’il pourrait être un peu plus travaillé pour être vraiment exceptionnel.

Le personnel a été un véritable point fort du séjour : chaleureux, disponible et très réactif, notamment pour organiser des réservations de restaurants ou de taxis. Une mention spéciale à Alexandra, particulièrement gentille et de très bon conseil pour nous indiquer les endroits à visiter.

La piscine est également très agréable et bénéficie d’une belle vue. Merci au barman pour la sélection musicale, qui contribuait vraiment à l’ambiance.

Cons:

La salle de bain mériterait un petit rafraîchissement : l’humidité commence notamment à faire cloquer la chaux blanche. Point à souligner compte tenu du standing et du prix de l’établissement.

Le petit-déjeuner est bon, mais manque peut-être d’un petit quelque chose pour être à la hauteur du reste de l’expérience.

Best hotel in Santorini!!
Pros:

We had an incredible experience staying at On The Rocks and would highly recommend!!! The hotel is absolutely beautiful, from the rooms to the pool area and the views. All members of staff were absolutely wonderful. The breakfast each morning was fantastic and was a highlight of our stay. The hotel is located in an ideal part of the island, Imerovigli, easily connected to both Fira and Oia but away from all the crowds. We had an ideal experience and hope to return someday! :)
