I am looking for a hotel in Firostefani for 2 nights in October. Many places are booked, but Dana Villas and Homeric Poems have openings. I need help deciding between the two. I would like to be within walking distance of cafes.
Thank you.

They're both conveniently close to lots of shops, cafes, restaurants and galleries. Both offer the amazing view of the caldera. Because Homeric Poems is a bit more upscale that's the one I'd choose. But if you're having trouble deciding you can go to tripadvisor to check reviews and send questions to reviewers by private message.

.We picked Dana Villa because it fits our budget. Thanks, Lee, for your feedback!

My husband and I stayed in Dana Villas for several nights last June and loved it. Michael at the front desk was very friendly and helpful. Porters carry your suitcases to your room because there are lots of steps, which are the norm on volcanic Santorini. Spectacular caldera view from our balcony, a beautiful swimming pool. The included buffet breakfast was delicious and Maria, the breakfast hostess was a delight. Easy walk to cafes, restaurants, shops and the bus stop. We would stay there again. Have dinner at the Simos Taverna, recommended to us by the man who drove us from the airport--wonderful food and helpful waiters.
