Dionysos Hotel

Loved this hotel! Very nice walk to the old town (about 2.5 miles but pathed path along the beach). There is also a taxi station (5 min walk) that will take you to the old town for a flat rate of 10€. Super nice employees and loved the all day restaurant. Provided free towels and allowed us to hang out for the day of check out even though our flight left at 9pm (provided [paid] storage lockers). Would definitely recommend!

Beautiful hotel and location. Ideal as a public bus stop and taxi rank just down from it and bside the beach. Great restaurant options though my dad felt the menu itself was very minimal, I disagree. There also plenty of food options around the hotel area. Staff were amazing, rooms were clean, bar was well stocked though some drinks were pricey. It was €10 for a Hennessey, however the local brandy was just €7 so if you don't like the price, they have other options. The only thing I didn't like was that the pool closed at 6pm which was a pity as they had a pool bar so it would have been nice to get back from an excursion and then relax in the pool. Also, the entertainment (Latin dance night, magician, disco, Greek dance night, Karaoke) was very good but there was one staff member who kept insisting on the performers lowering the volume to the point you couldn't hear the music each night which spoiled the atmosphere entirely. They volume was a bit higher on the Greek night which was live music and it was very enjoyable and eventually the karaoke volume got to go up and it turned into a great night. All in all, I'd still recommend this hotel for location, cleanliness, feeindliness of staff. Oh and I almost forgot, the Turkish Bath Ritual in the spa is absolutely fantastic. That alone is a reason to visit.

Outstanding welcome and ongoing fantastic service from the receptionist who was lovely. Hotel lobby had a relaxed vibe, swimming pool area and room very clean. Swimming pool toilets always very dark and wet floor. We stayed on a bed and breakfast basis, the breakfast was of a good standard and the staff catered to my gluten free requirements by providing me with the appropriate bread, cake and biscuits which was really nice. On the whole most of the staff were friendly and courteous. Evening entertainment not really to our taste but the programme did seem varied (dancing/magician/belly dancer). We took a taxi into Rhodes Old Town most nights for an explore and dinner. Most taxi drivers were fine (especially the ones booked by hotel reception on the outward trip) but do agree the price coming back (queue at taxi rank in the Old Town) before you accept a ride, one tried to rip us off. We were two female friends travelling together and one taxi driver made us feel extremely uncomfortable and worried for our safety (detour taken from usual route, asking if we were travelling on our own without men etc). Would definitely stay at this hotel again as a base to explore the island.

We were extremely satisfied with everything. It was a very clean and well-maintained hotel, and we didn't experience any issues. If you plan to rent a car, don't bother with other websites; there is a provider offering this service right inside the hotel. With just a few simple tweaks, they could easily become a 5-star full-board hotel. If the paid restaurants were integrated into the main concept—offering lunch at one and dinner at the other—I would gladly pay two or three times as much to stay here. Still, it was a great experience and I highly recommend it to everyone.
