Katikies Chromata Santorini - The Leading Hotels of the World arvostelua

Great rooms, staff, food and of course...views. This is a special luxury property with a great staff, amazing breakfast and of course great views. The village of Imerovigli is one of the highest points along the rim of the crater and offers great sunset views from the northern edge of the village (a five minute walk from the hotel). It is centrally located and doesn't suffer from the hordes of sunset crowds of Oia and cruise ship crowds in Fira (a 20 minute walk). Most rooms are in caves, which sounds dreary but their large size, the architecture's soft forms, white walls and flooring and very thoughtful lighting create a welcoming feel and the quiet gave me the best sleep of any hotel on our trip. Many of the rooms (including ours) don't have private terraces so guests and staff pass by, just like in a hillside village, but people are focused on the steps and not you. If you really want privacy on your terrace check with the hotel. The hotel's Chroma restaurant is quiet, romantic and serves great food. Our server studied wines and provided a mini-lesson in the different wines of Santorini (worth trying many!)
