Three Greek hotels claim top places in Historic Hotels of Europe Awards 2022

·

Every year the Historic Hotels of Europe Awards are selected by a huge number of tourists and academics in culture and history as they vote for their favourite hotels across many different categories. 

This year, three hotels in Greece took out top places in the awards for various categories including the two new categories that they introduced this year being the Historic Hotel sustainability Award and the New Entry Historic Hotel Award. 

Taking the golden award in the category of Historic Romantic Hideaway Hotel was the Esperas Santorini, in Oia, Santorini. This hotel will take your breath away with parts of its hotel etched into the classic rocky hillside of the island. These private terraces are the reason alone for the golden award.
