The hotel was nice they arranged transport for us when we needed it. Breakfast was good, they upgraded us where we had our own mini pool. The highlight was Maggie the poolside bartender she was so friendly and helpful amazing woman!

Loved my stay at Daedalus. The staff was friendly , attentive and very helpful.
Especially liked the reception staff and in the breakfast area, Maggi was ever smiling and took great care . Location is quite central to Fira - bus and taxi station proximity came in handy to plan trips around Santorini.

Lovely
Stayed 3 nights. Great location, close to bus station and on a road so easy to access. Close to town centre. Very clean. Beautiful pool area. Friendly staff. Lovely breakfast. Not busy. On arrival we were upgraded to a room with a jacuzzi but the outdoor space wasn’t as good as our booked room, so we reverted to the booked room with no problems. Can’t think of any constructive criticism. Would recommend.

The hotel staff was excellent. The rooms and common areas were very clean. The included breakfast was outstanding. The area will leave you speechless. Word of caution, you will be climbing many stairs to explore the area but you won't be disappointed. Make sure you watch the sunset, it's something you will never forget

Slightly disappointing stay, our room was on the small side and also smelt of drains. The hotel is very close to the road so not particularly relaxing at the pool. However, the pool area was very pretty with lovely cabanas and sun beds hanging over the edge of the water.

Average experience
During our stay, staff were very pleasant and kind. The outdoor area of the hotel was beautiful and the pool was amazing and a great feature to have in such a warm island. However, the location of the hotel was a huge let down, there was a giant car park right next to the hotel and a main road on the front and side of the hotel that was incredibly noisy and you could hear most of the time. Our room lacked a lot of features like a clothes line (we noticed majority of the rooms around us had one but we didn’t), a rack to hang towels in the bathroom or a fan in the bathroom which made it very hot and unpleasant and the small window only made it incredibly noisy from the road. The rooms don’t seem up to standard compared to the outdoor area of the hotel. Our experience was hindered mostly by the fact after check out and settling the payment with the accomodation, they had charged our card an additional few hundred dollars due to a mix up made by hotel staff undercharging us and without prior consent or knowledge they withdrew the money from the card details provided at the time of booking online (which we were under the impression was for the use of securing the booking or in the chance of a last minute cancellation, not for the hotel to use to charge additional payments without consent from us first). Overall, it was an average experience.

Kiva, rento hotelli ihan Firan keskustan vieressä
Kiva hotelli kävelymatkan päässä Firan keskustasta. Kaikki on lähellä. Hotelli on vilkkaan kadun varrella, mutta ainakaan meidän huoneeseen ei liikenteen melua kuulunut. Vastapäätä hotellia on supermarket ja apteekki, joten vettä yms. on helppoa ja nopeaa hakea. Firan keskusta 5 min kävelymatkan päässä. Hotelli on siisti ja puhdas, henkilökunta ystävällistä. Allasalue viihtyisä ja aurinkotuoleja oli vapaana koko ajan. Meid än huoneessa oli myös oma pieni allas, mika oli kiva lisä. Aamiainen ok, perustasoa mutta riittävä. Kaikki toimi hienosti ja kokemus ehdottomasti positiivinen.

Péssimo
Decepcionante. Limpeza ruim, cama. Banheiro horrível, super pequeno, até para usar a pia molhava o chão. Mtas moscas na área da piscina e em todo hotel. Café mediano. Espaço do café, quente e fechado. Sabonete que não fazia espuma. O que chama atenção do hotel é a área da piscina, hall de entrada e a localização, a 5 mints do centro de Fira. o restante não condiz pelo valor aplicado. Mto caro pelo que é.
