Had an absolutely lovely time in this hotel. The staff were very pleasant. It is run by a Greek family, who stayed up late to check us in which was much appreciated. It is quite a small hotel and therefore there weren't too many people staying there, and was very nice in the mornings having breakfast in the peace and quiet. The breakfast was served to us each day by the staff and was not a buffet breakfast. Me and my boyfriend enjoyed trying new Greek food each day which is something we might not have done had it been buffet style. The rooms air conditioning was amazing especially when coming out of the 30 - 35 degree heat, it stayed nice and cool all day long. The room we stayed in was exceptional, it had its very own unique character, a TV, a shared terrace overlooking a beautiful tree. It is the perfect location centered in the Old Town right of the famous Street of the Knights and only a very short distance up the street from the Palace of the Grand Master, which is definitely worth a visit. Fabulous restaurants are scattered all across the Old Town in very close proximity to the hotel. I would recommend the Zebrano All Day Cafe Restaurant which has great quality food and is right at the bottom of the street from the hotel tucked away in the corner by the Old Town entrance. Would 100% come back again.

“Just wonderful !”

A wonderful hotel. It is a peaceful, beautiful sanctuary in the Old Town. The staff are welcoming and friendly and the breakfasts are amazing. The room was superb as was the outside terrace ( we stayed in Anatoli). I cannot praise this fantastic place highly enough.

“Unique Hotel”

This hotel was very unique in both good and bad ways. On the good side - located in the heart of the old city, right off the street of the knights.

This hotel was very unique in both good and bad ways. On the good side - located in the heart of the old city, right off the street of the knights. Nice to be able to stroll through the multitude of shops and nightlife right outside the hotel door and the hotel itself gives you the feel of the old town. Breakfasts were amazing and the staff (owners, I believe) were very friendly. On the not so good side - the staff are only there from like 8 am to around 8 in the evening. After that, the place is literally locked up, empty and dark. Made for quiet sleeping, but also hard to get assistance, as we were out and about all day most days. Other big negative is it's very difficult to get to with luggage in tow (streets are all very rough cobblestone). Taxis don't go into the old city and the city gate is several blocks away. The hotel has a golf cart shuttle and there's a public shuttle as well, but they only operate after 9 in the morning. When we had to catch an early flight, the owner said it was too early to use their golf cart and the taxis couldn't come in, so we'd just have to drag our luggage across the cobblestone streets to get to a taxi at 6 am. I then called a taxi company myself and they said they'd pick us up in front no problem - that they are allowed to come in early mornings. At any rate, a minor blip but still a little frustrating. Otherwise, though, we enjoyed our stay and can't imagine not staying in the old city now that we've done it.

“Right in the middle of the medieval old city”

Right in the middle of the old town, so a place to feel the medieval atmosphere around you. Wonderful garden setting for breakfasts (book ahead for dinner which is home cooked and good value) and lovely service from the owners. I was put in the Annex, a few minutes walk around the corner.

Right in the middle of the old town, so a place to feel the medieval atmosphere around you. Wonderful garden setting for breakfasts (book ahead for dinner which is home cooked and good value) and lovely service from the owners. I was put in the Annex, a few minutes walk around the corner. Annex rooms are not the same standard as rooms shown on the website, more like a shared guest house, so check carefully what you book.
