Captain's Hotel

Pleasant hotel with friendly staff. Excellent vslue for money. No complaints.

All good.

Captain's is a good value budget hotel for a short stopover. We have stayed here several times since 2014 and will do so again. Since our last stay the bathrooms have been lifted from their 70s glory (avocado toilet) to something more modern, the shower is now much better. Unfortunately our stay this time around was some what shortened due to ferry chaos between the south Aegean islands, not the hotels fault of course. We arrived at 04.30 hrs on what should have been our second day. The man on reception was a little bemused to see us burst into the hotel in the early hours, only to be expected in the circumstances. However I had contacted the hotel to tell them of our late arrival so maybe he should have been more aware. As we had to depart around 20.00 hrs the same day all we really wanted to do was sleep, but it was a bit noisy during the day. But the hotel is only a few steps from what in our opinion is the best taverna in Kos (probably the best in all the Dodecanese) and a visit there for a mid-day meal lifted our spirits. It's not located on the same street as Captain's Hotel, but walk back toward the centre of Kos town and it's on your right! The lady on duty during the day remembered us from previous visits which was a nice touch.

The mattresses are getting a little tired and the sheets were a bit on the small side. Apart from that there's not much to not like.

The staff were super accommodating, helpful and welcoming, which made my stay really enjoyable. The pool was amazing and I spent a lot of time relaxing there. I also loved how convenient it was to order food and drinks from the restaurant/bar next door and enjoy them by the pool. The location was great, the hotel was comfortable and clean, and I genuinely had everything I needed.

Honestly, I didn’t miss anything. I really enjoyed my stay and had no complaints.
