Arrived at night and the rooms felt along way from the main building and very dated, however in the morning and daylight looks better. The hotel is generally pretty good, however there is an issue with the food not being warm enough at any meal in the main restaurant. My positives would be the drinks and food in the snack bar are.very reasonably priced and the food is pretty good. It's not gourmet but there is plenty to eat.

I came here with my 2 daughters and granddaughter and had an amazing time. All the staff were so kind and we were given a wonderful room with fantastic views.Hotel was well looked after, the towels were changed every day. The restaurant was always very busy and the food was good, although not always that warm. Plenty of variety so that we could choose something different each day. Special thanks to staff at reception, Kiko( entertainment) who was so enthusiastic and friendly, the boys at the pool bar, and the waitress that looked after us. Once again thank you Kresten Pallace for our stay and helping us make lovely family memories xx

When reading other reviews, we were a bit nervous as to what we were to expect. However, we are currently staying in a swim up room with sea view. I can honestly say this hotel is beautiful! The views are amazing, the hotel is clean and staff are friendly. The room was big enough for the both of us, daily cleaning is available. The maid was lovely, as were the entertainment and bar staff. The location is farely good, with a bus stop and taxi rank just across the road. The buses are around 2.50 euros each, and taxi weren’t too expensive either. There is entertainment come the evening which is brilliant. Staff try to get everyone involved. This hotel is a very good hotel for families and couples. There is access to a beach, 5 minute walk from the hotel. Their restaurant has vegan and gluten free options as well as plenty of food to choose from. I am a very picky eater and still managed to find something I liked. There is a shop in the main hotel, plus one across the road. These both have plenty of useful items for your holiday. We will definitely be returning in future.

Absolutely gorgeous hotel, me and my partner had an amazing time staying here.
The rooms were lovely and clean and a maid came round every day which was great.
The entertainment staff was absolutely amazing, great conversation, super helpful.
Couple of things to consider if staying here is for us the breakfast options wasn’t great but good enough to get by as it was included in our stay.
The table layout is about all over the place, our table came with no spoon, when I asked for one it caused a bit of a commotion between the staff who were then bickering between themselves and left me stood there for a while.
Now location is not great, I wished this was something I had looked into before hand as there’s only 3 restaurants within walking distance and these are still a 15-20 minute walk.
With the location not being great it led me and my partner to hire a quad for €60 per day which grace us a chance to explore the island further.
Overall a really great hotel.
Ps we also looked into upgrading our room to a pool room, but when looking closer I would advise do not waste your money, at no fault to the hotel at all those rooms do NOT get any sun as the hotel is infant of them rooms stopping the sun getting to them, we stayed around the pool one day and no sun hit the pools rooms at all.

Overall I was really disappointed with the hotel. Not sure how they are a 4 star hotel, but for the price they charge, you can easily get a better hotel elsewhere in Rhodes.
Lets start with the room. The fact that its 2 single beds pushed together was annoying and an oversight by myself when booking, but when I asked about getting a room with a double bed, I was told the only that’s have double beds are the ones with the swim up pool, which would be an extra £100 a night. The other option would be to have a mattress topper, which we went for. What was really annoying about this was that, turns out there were rooms with double beds that were next to us, not with swim up pools. This found out when discussing this with a few other guests….
Anyway, the rooms are dated, the lighting is awful and the bathroom shower water goes everywhere when its being used. The towels they give you are terrible, hard and smell strange. The pillows are terrible and I know this shouldn’t matter, but the TV, as usual is full of German and Italian channels, we get Sky and Bloomberg news. Now I don’t go on holiday to watch TV, but to have something on while getting changed or in the evening when coming back from a night out would have been nice.
Right, next onto the hotel food. Please, whatever you do, do not upgrade or book half board. As we got to the hotel and checked in a bit late, we decided to have dinner with them as it was just the first night, oh what a mistake that was. 20 euros each to eat food that tasted like it was frozen and came out of a can (how that is possible, I have no idea). How a hotel, on a Greek island, cant get flavor right is astonishing, but hey, they can do it. Breakfast is no better, fruit from a can, food that has no flavor best is just having some toast with a cup of tea, that’s if you don’t have to wait for 30 mins to get a small mug as they always run out.
The pool is a really good size and we had no issues in getting a sunbed. The downside of the pool, is that it isn’t clean. You can clearly see black dirt on the grouting that starts floating off and then around the pool.
Again, don’t eat at the pool snack bar, best place to eat would be walking down to the beach, then the 2nd restaurant along, is amazing food and is very well priced.
If you are going to go into town, you’ll either have to take the bus, or get a cab from reception. If you are getting a cab from reception, this can take up to 45 minutes.
The bus to Lindos that the hotel offers, isn’t great, our one was 45 minutes late, but still picked us up at the advertised time, didn’t get any money back. Id suggest booking a trip via trip advisor, stay clear of the hotel bus.
Lastly, my wife cut herself in the shower in the evening, so I went down to reception to ask for a plaster. The guy on the front desk, wasn’t quite sure what I meant, which is understandable as English wasn’t his first language. After we got to bottom of what I wanted, he opened the first aid kit and all they had were some tissues and a syringe. He told me to take the tissues and then use my shoe lace to tie it up until the morning when I could buy some platers from the shop.
a few last things to add:
1) make sure you bring a towel for the pool, if you don't, you'll have to pay £10 to rent one.
2) if you are unlucky to not be on 02, and you need the hotel WIFI, you'll have to pay for it. which is insane!
3) we called reception to get an iron sent to to the room, and guess what....nope you didn't have to pay, as they don't have them! What kind of 4* hotel doesn't have an iron, premier inns even have them!
4) the rooms don't seem to be cleaned, more like they come in and re do the bed.
5) the beach isnt a beach and as you can guess, pay and get an old broken bed or don't pay and you'll have to sit on the concrete slabs or stones on the floor.
Overall not great, wont be going back.
