Orama Hotel & Spa

"We went to this hotel in September and our experience was wonderful! The 3 pools are magnificent, the lounge chairs comfortable. The staff is responsive and friendly. The junior suite is spacious with a large bed, a big shower. The only small flaw is the soundproofing of the rooms (you can easily hear noisy neighbors)."

"This was a great hotel with a few minor things to remember when booking / checking. Location: Short walk to the actual "town" and Supermarket, pharmacy, laundry, etc. Rooms: Nice and large room with separate toilet and shower, making it really easy and fast to get up and get ready each morning (why can't every hotel do this). It must be a Greek thing, but it would have been great to have the shower head a bit higher than at tummy level. Another foot or two higher would make it hands-free for one's that don't want their hair wet. There is a rain shower too - just amazing water pressure! Just wonderful. THE CATCH: Try not to get rooms with 1xx - these are right down the bottom of the hill and its a big climb up. You could take multiple stairs across a couple of pools BUT a real pain. They don't seem to offer a buggy. So, if you are not fit and mind sweating first thing in the morning, try not to select these rooms, LOL. Breakfast: Wonderful choice with cook that will make you omelets. Very comprehensive. Didn't care much for the coffee though. Very weak. Maybe we were spoilt having great coffee at Nimbus Hotel in Mykonos! NOTE TO HOTEL: Pease replace that terrible toaster - cant get bread wider than 1cm in there plus the mechanical lever is hard which "jumps" the burnt bread out and up, up, and away lol. Easy fix! Staff: Staff were great even though we didn't have too much interaction. Room Numbers: Please infill the number on the terracotta with black or equivalent. Its very hard to read the embossed numbers (see photo). Our 3 nights were great here, except for the steep climb up each day (see photo)."

"Excellent hotel in a great location being a 10 minute easy walk to the centre of Fira. Good restaurants on route to the town and if required both pharmacy and supermarket as well. A very relaxed atmosphere, buffet breakfast should cater for most needs. The room was exceptionally clean and a daily clean replacement of towels etc, our view was over the pool and seeing the sunrise, good value for money. Weekend was noisier with guests but nothing to worry about. Overall the service was excellent, reception can book anything you need and nothing too much trouble."
