The hotel is in a superb location and the building has a very distinctive character. When I arrived nobody was there at the reception and had to communicate via Whatsapp to check in. When the owner/personnel were around, they were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was fabulous. But the rest wasn't so great. My room was very small and not that comfortable. There was no wardrobe in the room and I was asked to use one in the vestibule (i.e. in a public area!). I ended up keeping my clothes part in my suitcase and part on the floor. I found a small fridge in the outside cupboard and took it, because the room didn't have one. The bathroom fittings were poor. A wall mounted hook fell to the floor when I tried to hang a towel on it. The shower head was not fixed to the wall and I had to hold it (there were holes in the wall, but the job was never finished). There were signs of damage here and there. The room was made after my first night but not after the second. The TV remote control didn't work: not that it mattered, since I hardly ever watch TV in hotels, but still. Despite the looks, walls are thin: there was quite a bit of noise one night. I saw pictures of some of the other rooms on the web and they look great, which combined with the location and the quality of the breakfast explains the high rates the hotel gets: unfortunately the occasional guest ends up in a dodgy corner and for those 3 nights that guest happened to be me.

Interesting architecture, central to everything. Also Savvas the host makes great omelettes.

Savvas and Jenny have hospitality in their blood, and they work hard to make sure guests are comfortable. From the moment you walk in, the first thing you notice is how clean and fresh everything smells. The beds are nice and firm. Our first morning we intended to go out early for bougatsa. Jenny asked, “Where you going so early?” Savvas arrived with freshly baked bread shortly afterwards and said, “Why didn’t you say you wanted bougatsa?” Then he said, “Sit. I get you bougatsa.” While he prepared an amazing omelette, Jenny went and bought bougatsa and brought it back and served it to us with the rest of the amazing breakfast. Talk about service! We had a little hiccup trying to get to the hotel. It was our first time in Rhodes, and we didn’t realize that being in “Old Rhodes” meant that the hotel was inside a walled fortress. GPS kept telling us to enter a gated street. After driving over an hour looking for another possible entrance, we called the hotel, and Savvas met us on his motorcycle and let us go with him down the gated street—being with him gave us access. He then had a local electric taxi meet us to take us to the hotel. He said we should have called first. Our last day, we had to leave early to catch the ferry, and they served us breakfast an hour earlier than the stated time. In every way, they were eager to serve. Note: if you’re unfamiliar with remote control AC, be sure to ask. You don’t have to suffer the heat!

We had a lovely 1 night stay at this property. We booked the 2-bed house which is located just opposite the main building. The location was fabulous with lots of shopping and dining options close by. We were right in the middle of everything, but our street was very quiet and peaceful. Breakfast was excellent. We only gave a 4* review due to lack of check-in experience, and it would have been nice if the lounge in the 2-bed house had air con. We would stay here again if we return to Rhodes.

Great location. Friendly staff.
