“The Arches lands you squarely on Oia's main street, yet cleverly tucked away from the bustle. Rooms offer welcome features like air conditioning and tea/coffee, while John's attentive service draws consistent praise. I think the option to use the neighboring hotel's pool with a drink purchase is a definite plus.”
