Hotel berhampiran Panagia Filerimos, Rhodes

We stayed in the Sheraton Rhodes in the first week of July (2 adults 2 kids), last minute booking through Voyage Prive (booked Wednesday, flew Saturday). I found all the reviews here helpful in deciding to choose this hotel; here are our own experiences. Overall very happy with the hotel, facilities and service. Hotel rooms - we had guessed the hotel was built in the 70s/80s as the rooms and building itself are quite bland (actually built in 1993). We had Deluxe Sea View interconnecting rooms on 10th floor which suited us perfectly. View is fantastic - you can watch the sun set over the Turkish mountains on the far side. It was €4200 for the week for 2 Deluxe sea view rooms with ‘full board plus’. The minibar only had water and the waters were not replenished at all during the week. This seems almost a regular thing now with even top end hotels and in any case water bottles are 60 cent in the 1st floor minimarket. The king size beds are very nice. The hotel itself is not 5-star equivalent by European major city standards but nor are you paying anywhere near European 5-star prices for your stay. We found the hotel good value for the money. The public interior areas are clean and well-thought out. The lobby and the atrium around Knights bar is lovely. They have a baby grand piano open to anybody to play which is a really nice touch and adds a lot of character to the place. You’ll find kids and grown ups alike playing. There’s a nice mix of many different nationalities with the guests. Pools: 3 outdoor pools, with plenty of sun-loungers and parasols to go around throughout the day. The pool on 6th floor is very quiet and amazingly only ever had 3 or 4 people in it, with loads of space around it; the restrooms and showers here are even marble-tiled. Restaurants: the Castellano restaurant for breakfast and dinner buffet is very good and the staff there are excellent. There is a good mix of fruit / salads / hot food / cereals / breads. We never had to wait more than 2 minutes for a table outside. Non-dairy milks are still clearly not a thing for most people as sometimes these had bits in them, stick to soy milk rather than oat / almond! Themed nights meant sushi, Mediterranean options etc. as well as the usual main buffet selections. Full board +: we had 3 meals plus drinks included for the week which was okay value (about €900 for full board and €200 for drinks). Sheraton could organise this better. You get a paper card with your meal plan written on it which you must show staff every time you sit down for a meal, until they get to know you. Why they don’t just record your meal plan with your room number in the system I don’t know. With so many staff involved in serving drinks / issuing the bills etc, mistakes can happen the odd time. The extra for ‘drinks’ is about the price you would pay anyway, because as we found out on the first day, only one drink (juice, beer or house wine) is included per person. We usually have a lot more than one

So me and my brother flew in from England and stayed the week here, I booked before I looked at reviews then when I saw them i obviously panicked and thought it was gonna be a sh*T show, thankfully it was way better than expected. Firstly the location is great, 10 min walk from old town and the bus station where it costs €5 to go to lindos etc, sea a minute away, plenty of shops and restaurants around. The staff are very friendly and no extra fees were pushed on us, the room was clean, sure a bit of peeled paint was on the walls (not shocked due to humidity of Rhodes) but it was clean and nice. The room was cleaned 4 times in our 7 night stay and we enjoyed our visit, will definitely be staying again. I think some people pay for 2* and expect 5* lmao. For a 2* hotel it was way better than expected.

Very nice hotel close to the center of Rhodes Town and the beach. Lots of shops and restaurants nearby. Spacious clean rooms with a balcony. Daily change of towels. Great, helpful and always smiling staff at the reception. I would highly recommend it

Lovely central hotel, yes it is on the road but traffic noise was not a problem. Very friendly and helpful staff. Max 20 minute walk to everything, beaches, restaurants, old town etc. Room was great, TV, fridge, air con, coffee and tea, saftey deposit and toiletries all included. Towels changed every day, not really necessary, but sheets not changed, if fact the first morning the top sheet was taken away and we had to ask for them back. The only thing wrong was that the matress protector was waterproof/rubber so not very comfartable but the actual bed was very comfortable. The web site states it has a bar but it looks like it is not in use. After our first week we say people with drinks at the pool and discovered that if you asked at reception they would get drinks for you. The breakfast was as you normally get except the boiled eggs were hot and soft, sometimes too soft, the fried eggs were soft too. The pool area is quite small, the sun loungers are very comfortable but could be more of them. Also the umbrellas were fixed to the ground and very difficult to put up. We really enjoyed our stay here and would recommend it.

The hotel is well-located, just about 5 minutes from the beach (northeast side of the island). The rooms are a bit outdated and the bathroom is small, but they are adequate for a vacation. The housekeeping staff does an excellent job, cleaning the room daily as if it were the first time we were entering. The reception staff is friendly, though we had issues with our room key card, which failed to work 5 times over 8 days. The main issue was with the woman who checks room numbers at breakfast; she was very unkind and did not allow us to take two sandwiches from breakfast, despite us needing food for a day at remote beaches where we couldn't buy any. Overall, it was a pleasant stay.

Currently staying at this beautiful hotel and couldn't wait to leave this review. This hotel has been a fabulous experience from our warm welcome at reception to the impeccable service of all who work here. I wish I knew all their names but Giota in La pasteria is a standout for her warm, genuine greetings and she put on the most amazing live cooking show for us. Having seen her many nights now she treats everyone fabulously and the hotel wouldn't be the same without her. Diagos at the beach is another stand out. So attentive and nothing is too much trouble. He made our beach experience fabulous and he is an absolute credit to the hotel. Altogether an amazing experience made more amazing by the wonderful staff :)

We had an excellent stay at Cook's Club. The facility is modern and stylishly furnished. The restaurant at dinner time was a particular highlight for us. Stefanos, Marios and the whole team gave us a warm welcome and made every evening a great experience. We never had to wait long, the food was always perfectly prepared and special requests were also taken into account. - Michael
