We stayed for four nights in April. The view of the caldera from the patio is breathtaking. It is right in front of you -- no climbing steps or looking in a particular direction. I never could quite get used to how beautiful it was. The hotel is small -- a half dozen or so rooms. We had the House of Portraits which was very nice -- high ceilings and lots of space. We also had the House of Porcelain which was not as nice -- low ceilings and smaller. The service at the hotel was great, led by the Elena -- the owner or daughter of the owner? She was there every day and helped us with restaurants and touring and every question or decision. She is a wonderful and warm person, just terrific. She made the stay for us. Breakfast comes with the room and is amazing.

We recently spent nearly 3 weeks traveling around Greece. We had been planning to visit Santorini for some time at the urging of an old friend (and Santorini native). Following some research on available accommodation, we selected the Tsitouras Collection as it seemed to be a unique property in a suburb of Fira. We have stayed in a great number of hotels around the world over the years and we would rate the Tsitouras Collection amongst the very best for it's combination of location, service and ambience.

On arrival, Eleni (the proprietress) upgraded us to the House of Portraits. We were given a choice of rooms for an upgrade and settled on the House of Portraits. The other suites were also beautiful but we liked the room layout and furnishing of the House of Portraits.

During our stay Eleni assisted with restaurant recommendations, car rentals and would have done anything else requested of her to make our stay as comfortable and carefree. Likewise, the staff were ready to assist with anything that was required of them, including packing/unpacking of suitcases.

The breakfasts could be had in/outside of the suite at any time I.e. No pre-set breakfast hours similar to the Aman properties if you have stayed in these before. The breakfast itself was a sumptuous affair with a variety of choices and add-ons. No need to schedule your mornings around breakfast hours! One morning we went out and came back later for breakfast.

Room service is also available if you do not feel like going out to any of the restaurants in Fira, Ia or any of the nearby towns. There is also a very well stocked mini-bar the contents of which are no additional cost, including local wine and a selection of soft drinks, beer and spirits.

We did not take the opportunity to try out the infinity pool with it's stunning rooftop views across the cauldera as the April weather was still a bit cold.

We would definitely stay here again on our next trip to Santorini.

As most of my friends and family know, I do my due diligence when choosing an itineary as well as hotels when we travel. I did much research and some soul searching for our 3 days stay on Santorini. After traveling for almost 3 weeks all over Greece, we knew we wanted to relax at a luxury hotel on Santorini for the last leg of the trip. All reveiws, books, magazines, online sources told me to stay in Oia...where they said were the most beautiful sunsets.
I guess the tour book writers have never been to the Tsitouras Collection Hotel!
I went with my gut feeling after reading between the lines of reveiws which referred to owner, Eleni, has someone who gave her undivided attention and excellent service.
Not only did Firostefani have better sunsets, Tsitouras Collection, in my opinion, has the best on the entire island. (more later).
More importantly, we were greeted at the waterfront and since that moenet, were given the BEST service in one of the most amazing hotels in the world. The rooms are gorgeous, yet comfortabl(we had 2: Porcelan and Portaits). HUGE rooms. We had an incredible breakfast each morning, served onto our personal veranda--and we ate lunch at the pool once and it was GREAT food. Everyone who works there gave us excellent service, with a warm family-like feeling.
The pool is a new addition and what a great one. Beautiful, relaxing and has the best views.
My husband swears he received the best haircut across from the hotel from a local woman, the few restaurans in Firostefani were very good and there were NO crowds. They all were in Fira(wlaking distance) or in Oia(nice scenic drive).
SO HAPPY we chose this amazing boutique hotel....It was a perfect ending to an amzing trip.

Just one of the very best places I've ever stayed at: amazing views, beautiful rooms and the service which just sets up new standards which are difficult to match. We had Porcelain room, which was absolutely great and enjoyed our time there. But the service is just the best thing about Tsitouras: everything is taylor-made and you decide what do you want and when do you want it, not other way around.
