Kos Island Hotels

Enjoyed our stay very much. The food was excellent (we were half board), the room and general decor were good, but not really 5 star in my opinion - the white and gold just looked dated and not pristine. There's a nice little bit of beach opposite with hotel sun beds, and the hotel pools are vast so no lack of swimming. My only real gripe was the advertised 'free high speed internet' was difficult to connect via wi-fi and when you did connect (or via the PC in our room) was anything but high speed - painfully slow is nearer the mark. We had a hire car, so weren't worried by the location, but the hotel is situated out of town which might be an issue if you don't have transport. But those are two minor points - the important part was that we had a really good time.

Very nice sized room with nice bath room. Hotel located close to everything in Kos. It is surrounded by roman ruins, 5 areas within a 5 minute walk. Bus to and from the airport is a 7 minute walk from hotel. Breakfast was good. Reception staff was helpful and friendly. Rent a car at the hotel to tour the island or just take the bus.

We had the worst time in this hotel. The staff are very unhelpful and not approachable unless you are a Scandinavian tourist which is clearly their moneymaker. We really felt we could not ask them anything. Also Expedia advertised free wifi and when we asked for the password we were told it would cost us 10 euro! The rooms are hideous and dingy. Absolutely filthy and insanely noisy. Don't plan on getting any rest here. You will have a delightful time listening to the Scandinavian young tourists who book out all the rooms and have non stop parties all night long. It felt more like a backpackers hostel than a hotel that they advertise. Staff aren't interested in keeping the noise levels down for their other guests by stopping the party behaviour either.

Only five minutes walk to the beach and 10 minutes from the town centre the apartment could not be better placed. Poppy, Makis and the rest of the staff could not have been more helpful and full of excellent advise and ideas. The apartments were full with people from many nations and several were regular visitors so they are obviously doing something right. Cleaner 6 days a week with towels and bedding changed every other day minimum. Try a cocktail from Makis in the downstairs bar...........worth waiting for.
