Stayed here for 2 nights. Disappointed to say the least. There are far better in same location for the same price. Pool was dirty. Gym equipment broken, probably one of the worst hotels gyms ive been too.
Cleaners start early so noisy with furniture being pulled around.
Aircon/heat unit did not work
Bar is overpriced.
50 euros extra for hour later check out. I approached reception staff with all of this and they were not interested...very unhelpful.
Positives...the door guy very helpful.
Breakfast selection was amazing 👏

The hotel was very old and not well maintained. The room had an od smell. You could hear planes landing at all hours, which is to be expected around Kanoni but it's still important to mention it. The staff was nice.
The breakfast was very good and quite big. The beach of the hotel was also very nice.
But all in all definitely not a 5 star hotel due to the old and unmaintained condition.
It should be renovated soon.

Have just come back from a lovely stay at Corfu Holiday Palace! We stayed for 6 nights and first of all were pleasantly surprised that on our late arrival from the airport, staff had saved some cold salad for us and taken to our room for us to eat when we got there. An example of one of the thoughtful touches at the hotel.
All of the staff were so so lovely. The reception staff were super helpful and assisted with all our queries and the chambermaids and security were also cheery and wanted to say hello. The hotel offers a chauffeur service and I think the lady who drove us twice was called Dina and she was great. When we went to the port she waited for us to ensure we were getting on the correct ferry to Paxos.
We paid extra for a sea view and I’m so glad we did. Our room had a beautiful view of the sea and was on the lower floor so had the added benefit of a balcony and a grass area with private sun loungers. We were quite near the bar but music stopped by 1am every night and the soundproofing was quite good anyway. We did not find the noise from the planes too intrusive and you get used to it after a night and sleep through although I can’t speak for the other side of the hotel.
The room itself was probably the only thing that wasn’t quite 5 star. It was starting to show its age a little in terms of furnishing and bathroom a bit shabby for example shower could be mounted on the wall so you don’t need to hold it. However the room had everything we needed, a free safe, toiletries etc. TV was quite old but we barely used it. If you put the sign on your door for your room to be made up each day then maids will provide bottled water but sadly not new tea bags each day.
The food in the buffet restaurant was great! We are two vegetarians and often are restricted on holiday but there was so much choice for us!! Lots of lovely pastas, curries, moussaka, pies, veggies and more I can’t remember. Plus a lovely salad and desert selection daily. Breakfast a little more repetitive but again a great selection of hot and cold and plenty of sweet treats. Our server was Charles who was so attentive and lovely to chat with he improved our meals even more.
Alcohol is really reasonably priced in the restaurant and the main bar. We spent a couple of nights in there as cocktails were approx €10 each and the drink of the day even cheaper. There was some light entertainment too which we enjoyed.
Location wise the hotel was good for us. We enjoyed the private beach and pool and managed to get a sun lounger when we needed. The beach isn’t 100% private as can be accessed by public but we didn’t see many people doing this.
It is walking distance to the flight viewing area and monastery/ where you catch boat to mouse island. We also walked to mon repos park but a further trek. Make sure to also walk to monastery of the Virgin Mary which is a real hidden gem.
There is a very convenient bus stop right outside the hotel the 2a which takes you into old town and runs until about 11.30pm. Buy tickets from the mini mart over the road for cheaper than on the bus I think €1.20. The Aqualand transfer service also stops here.
Overall we had a brilliant stay here and would definitely recommend.

Really great hotel, service has been excellent all around. We were half board and the buffet breakfast and evening service had something for everyone and plenty of it!!
Particularly want to say big thank you to Antonia and Maria for very friendly service.
Pool is great as is the private beach with bars serving drinks and food at both.
4 star for location as its right be the runway, didn't bother us but may affect some people.

Spend a week there. The staff are great, the room offered a great view and a very powerful AC. The room was kept very clean and tidy throughout our stay. The food was so tasty and there was something different served every day. I only wish there was more traditional Greek food on offer. The little beach downstairs is very convenient. The bus stop outside is so convenient if you want to check the town which you definitely should. We were on the 6th floor and it was very quiet. I would recommend it and will be happy to stay in this hotel again 👌
