We had the most amazing view at Aris! Alex was amazing, he greeted us with coffee and biscuits as we checked in and he showed us the map of the area and recommendations. There are a lot of stairs to get up and down to the property, but to be expected as it was on the cliff and the view was totally worth it!

Just home from the most amazing week. All staff were lovely and so helpful. The view from our terrace was the best we have ever had. Whilst the hotel is in the town, the rooms are quiet and peaceful. If you like quality, comfort and an amazing view, I would highly recommend Aris Caves.

Our stay at the Aris Caves exceeded our expectations! The room was clean, updated/renovated, linens and towels were nice, the kitchenette had all we needed (coffee, tea, glasses, dishes, etc). The outside patio was also very clean (housekeeping came each morning to clean). We were greeted with some muffins from a local bakery, a bottle of wine, and a large bottle of water. Alex met us upon arrival and provided us with all of the information we needed for around the area. He also secured a window seat for us to dine and watch the sunset at a local restaurant. The common areas were very clean, updated, quiet, a great space to sit and enjoy the views.
