This is an excellent little hotel in the middle of the old town, very convenient for everything, and in a quiet narrow street not visited by many tourists. The room was very nice, with a comfortable bed and the usual facilities. The owner was friendly and helpful.

We really enjoyed our time at Sofia Pension. Fantastic location, without all the noises of being near so many shops and restaurants. A grocery store is right around the corner and the rooms have great fridge/freezer! Clean rooms, AC, great talks and information from the owner/manager. Would definitely stay here again:)

Beautiful place just close enough to the center to be quickly accessible but in a quiet backstreet.
Only negative is that the walls are very thin and you can hear everything happening in adjacent rooms.

Excellent location in the old town. The room did not have any windows at the eye level, and was quite dark, with little storage space. No information about the hotel was provided at check in, the internet service was poor, and the a/c was noisy and only worked when we were in the room, which made the room quite hot. Otherwise a good quiet hotel within walking distance to the major attractions.

This place is a gem! Location is quiet, yet in the center of old town. The place itself is beautiful and peaceful - full of flowers and plants and the rooftop terrace has amazing views over old town. And Mrs. Sofia herself and her helper is so kind and helpful in every way. Everything was well organized. We felt so wellcome and enjoyed our stay. Thank you!

The location of this hotel is amazing!! It's right in the centre of the beautiful medieval city of Rhodes. There are many restaurants, cafes, and bars nearby, but this hotel is just far enough away that you're not disturbed by any noise. The property is pretty and quaint. The people who run it are lovely, friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend this little family run hotel.

After visiting Rhodes about ten times over the last 39 years (!) we finally discovered this wonderful hotel less than 150 metres from the main shopping area, tavernas and bars, and really wish we had found it years ago.
From the start, communication was superb, with almost instant replies to our questions. Late check in was explained perfectly, though in the end not necessary as the taxi driver let us in, and even carried our bags up to the room! We asked them to arrange a taxi to take us from the airport to the hotel inside the city walls and they arranged that wonderfully. Moses was brilliant (it's worth booking him just for the ride through the narrowest streets ever, packed with shoppers and merchandise!)
The room was clean and very attractive, the bed comfortable and, as everyone mentions, contains a refrigerator, which is a fabulous touch.
Breakfast is well worth the price, and the lady serving us (who also cleaned the rooms) was wonderful, nothing was too much trouble.
In order to provide balance we should, I suppose, mention the only negative - the towels are as scratchy as hell. There, that's it. Nothing else.
From now on, this is the only place in Rhodes Town that we would ever consider staying, thank you so much for everyone for making our holiday one of the best ever.

A wonderful and characterful property in the heart of the mediaeval old town of Rhodes, run by the pleasant and helpful Sofiya. I stayed for a week at the beginning of the season (arriving 28 March) and the only downside of staying that early in the year was that my room was rather cold during the first few days and there was no heating, but that wouldn't be a problem later in the Spring or in the Summer.
Most taxi drivers are nor permitted to enter the narrow lanes of the old town but Sofiya can arrange for a local taxi driver with a permit to collect you from the airport.

A lovely pension in the old city of Rhodes. Our room was very clean, light and was more than adequate for our needs. It even came with a fridge which was a bonus. We chose to have breakfast and were very happy we did so as we got to try Sofia's lovely homemade comquat jam. Sightseeing was very easy as the pension is in easy walking distance of most attractions.

Sofia's pension is in the heart of Rhodes Old Town, the perfect location near shopping and unforgettable sightseeing. Sofia is still the owner and continues to treat guests as friends in her home. The inn is a gardener's paradise, with blooming plants and vines, and the rooftop patio has views like no other. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, and the neighborhood is charming.
For short stays of just a day or two, or longer stays like the one I've recently enjoyed, the quality and enjoyment of Sofia's pension can't be beat.

Sofia is a wonderful hostess and we enjoyed our breakfast on the terrace each morning. Sofia's Pension gives an authentic Old Town experience and is located minutes from the taxi stand, shopping and restaurants. You do have to walk with your luggage to get to there.

Fabulous ‘boutique’ accommodation in a quiet area of Old Town, near enough to the tourist ‘stretch’ to be convenient and far enough away from it to be peaceful. Easy walking access to the harbour (5 -10 mins) and beaches of Rhodes Town (20-30 mins). Sophia and her family were the perfect hosts: friendly and attentive without being ‘in-your-face’. The simple ‘Continental’ breakfast had a variety of local foods and provided an enjoyable and for-filling way to start the day. Locally there is an amazing Greek bakery and a must-visit Vegetarian/Vegan restaurant (To Marouli), amongst the standard Tavernas of Rhodes Town. Expect a warm and cordial Greek welcome with polite hospitality. The perfect accommodation for anyone wishing to experience Old Town Rhodes.

Location in old city is superb; Sofia is ready to help with suggestions and aid, such as mailing your postcards upon check out! She’s such a huge help to guests, and let me dry my bathing suit in the roof deck.

The owner (Sofia herself) was very kind and met me along the way to guide me to her pension, since the smaller streets of Old Town Rhodes can be confusing. Very accommodating, and allowed me to stay until lateen the afternoon on the day I flew out.

A wonderful and relaxing stay. Sophia and her husband were welcoming and friendly. We started each day with the tasty and plentiful breakfast they provided for 5 euro extra. Breakfast was on a beatiful terrace a few steps from our room. Room was quiet, clean and spacious. The only negative i can thik of was the shower was a bit cramped. The pension is on a narrow cobbled street within the old city. The location was a few minutes walk from the centre of the old city and the waterfront but away from the crowds providing an atmosphere where you could imagine youself in the time the old city was new. Near many restaurants and the museums and shops in the old town and the new. I would choose this pension again if i return to rhodes.

Mrs Sophia and Mr Philippos are a lovely, welcoming couple. They were there with any extra need we had, not that we needed much more as everything was already there. Spanking clean rooms and bathrooms, we slept with the window open to take in the fragrance of her climbing jasmin shrub in the warm nights we stayed there, a luxury of a different kind.

We loved staying at pension Sophia. Sophias husband came and met us from our taxi at about midnight. Its in the heart of the old town with no access for cars or Taxis. Probably about 10 mins walk from the Taxi drop off point. Enjoyed breakfast on the terrace felt like we were sitting in a garden. Sophia very friendly and made us a good breakfast, boiled egg toast, Greek yoghurt and honey, fruit. The hotel is in the tradtional Greek style which is part of its charm. When we needed to get the early boat to Symi Sophia kindly made us an early breakfast. The bed was comfy and the aircon worked well. Bathroom could possibly do with updating in the not too distant future. Would we go back? - yes!Lots of steps up to rooms so not great if you have mobility difficulties.

Sofia Pension is as lovely as the lady who welcomes you to this perfect oasis in Old Town, Rhodes. Sofias love of flowers is reflected in her wonderful house. They are everywhere. My pictures do not do them justice. Sofia and I sat in her open roof sitting area and jasmine flowers were blooming over our heads. The room we stayed in was lovely and comfortable. Sofia is very professional, providing information about the best restaurants, what to see, and arranging transportation. Breakfast was home-made by Sofia herself and served on the terrace. She has a way of making you feel as comfortable as if you are in your own home. I have never stayed at such a wonderful place. Old Town Rhodes is amazing, but meeting Sofia and staying at Sofia Pension was the highlight of my time there.

A calm relaxing place 2 minutes from the shops and restaurants. Sophia herself is a lovely welcoming lady and gave us tea and cake on arrival. The room was spotless with fridge, kettle etc. It was a good size with a modern bathroom attached. Opt for Sophia's breakfast as she gives you a good selection. We only found one other place nearby for breakfast and it wasnt great. Overall Sophia's Pension is an excellent place to stay.

As the taxi driver could not drive in the old town the owner met us and took our cases. Sofia his wife warmly welcomed us with tea and a cake and during our stay was very helpful in sorting out any problems ,providing us with local information , where to go and where to eat out . the breakfast was adequate , the best feature being the homemade yogurt and pear.The pension was sited in a very quiet unspoilt interesting part ot the town and the experience was that of staying in a family environment .

We stayed here for a week. Our room was large, however there were no windows at a level you could see out of. The beds are very firm, which may be ok for some. The shower, although small was good with enough pressure & hot water. Breakfast is the same each morning, although Sofia did offer to make omelette if we wished. The point to remember is that it is two stars & in that respect its as youd expect. We would stay here again but probably not for a week

We had a wonderful stay. Located in the old town. Close to everything transport, beaches etc spotlessly clean, the most comfortable beds and breakfast was plentiful with a lot of a variety. The owners were fantastic and nothing was too much trouble. We will stay here again in the future
