Staff very good/accommodating. Restaurant upstairs was very nice. We booked a deluxe sea view room which was ok, but minimal seaview. Poor parking accommodations offsite- be prepared. No real unloading zone for luggage.

10/10 Exceptional

Very convenient as it is located on the heart of the town. Staff were friendly & helpful. Price is very reasonable & the food are excellent.
Yani, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

It was lovely to wake to a sea view after our late flight. Unfortunately there were some youths who wanted to make a fair bit of noise, some on motorbikes, which woke me several times. Breakfast had lots of choice and was tasty. Unfortunately no lunch. Surroundings are in many places old and photogenic, the Venetian wall something special
Entrance to tunnel beneath the wall.  Possibly a new art space?

8/10 Very good

For a short city trip i like this hotel as staff is friendly and highlight of each stay as always the rooftop bar/restaurant. Breakfast was good, even always the same, but with the big variety you can always find something different. Only thing should be improved are the beds as mats are too soft and also the pillows.
Matthias, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Everything was excellent. Giorgos, front desk/concierge, was super professional and knowledgeable. The dinner server girls at the 5th floor restaurant were really nice and attentive. I highly recommend this hotel.

Everything was perfect. Great rooms for a family. Excellent 5th floor breakfast/dining room. Great food and view. Just FYI. Parking is off site and a 5 min walk away.

Lovely hotel - Wondeful reception staff

Check in was really good, two staff members were very helpful, cheery and smiled. Rooms are very clean, beds are amazing, lovely shower. Breakfast was excellent and great to be able to take breakfast at 7am before leaving for Port. Staff helpful with travel questions and arranging taxi. Also helped with laundry cleaning and providing the service for cheap €12. Amazing staff member on check out, same as check in, greeted with a smile and very helpful arranging a taxi to Port.

AC was broken, had an infant sleeping in the heat of the night. Did not go well. Staff was good and helped as much as they could.
Darren, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

It's ok - it's nothing fancy, not so comfortable

It was ok for one night stay. The place feels shabbier in reality than on the pictures. The lobby had a strange odor and the bed was rather a small double bed (1.40m) and the room smaller than expected. Nevertheless, it was ok for one night stay, good location, 24 hours reception, good breakfast (much better than what we've expected), and quite clean. We paid a very good price so it was a very good value for money for this stay.

Bummers

I enjoyed the breakfast. After that it was downhill. There was an extremely noisy party going on of 50 teenagers plus another of 25 young adults. Slamming doors, loud laughter in the halls. Knocks on my door, pounding on the walls… They were on all floors. Bed is not good Shower floods. But mostly… I asked three different people if I could keep excess luggage in their storage until my return on Friday from Rhodes and I was told that both Linda and I could do it with no problem. Yet, after packing for the four days in Rhodes carefully in other cases, I was told by the clerk at the desk that 5am morning of departure,I could not. Why was t I told before? Earlier? It was terribly upsetting having to completely repack moments befor getting into my cab.

Τα θετικά. Πρωινό πολύ καλό και δωρεάν Πάρκιγκ. Αλλα το δωμάτιο ήταν βρώμικο, δεν είχε καν σαμπουάν και όταν το επισημάναμε πάλι δεν έβαλαν. Το δωμάτιο έβλεπε στον ακάλυπτο όπου τα δύο μεγάλα μηχαναημτα air condition και η ελλιπέστατη ηχομόνωση σου έδιναν την εντύπωση ότι ήσουν σε αεροπλάνο με τουρμπίνες. Εξυπηρέτηση κάτω του μετρίου εκτός του πρωινού.
konstantinos, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

L’accueil et le restaurant sont vraiment super, rien à redire de ce côté-là. En revanche, le ménage laisse à désirer et mériterait d’être revu : lit fait très rapidement, poussière visible au sol, miroir de la salle de bain pas entièrement nettoyé… L’entretien général est malheureusement médiocre, ce qui n’est pas digne d’un hôtel. Je comprends qu’il puisse y avoir beaucoup de chambres à gérer ou un manque de personnel, mais cela ne devrait pas impacter la qualité de service pour le client.
