Kresten Palace Hotel

Just come home from an amazing time here . We had a swim up room , room was fantastic, plenty of space for us and the teenagers . Pool, grounds and building is beautiful . The staff are amazing , wonderful friendly team shout out to the three ladies at the front of the restaurant always smiling , chatting and helping guests and the lady in the mini mart was so informative . In honesty after reading the reviews of some , I was nervous- their was no need for this , it’s your holiday and we all want something different personally the four of us loved it and fell in love with Rhodes . Thank you to all the staff , the amazing room cleaners (every day beds made , cups cleaned , towels replaced ) the information you gave us and just thank you for a fantastic holiday .

On the whole we had a truly incredible experience at Kresten Palace. The location of the hotel is great and you get the most stunning views. Our rooms were faultlessly clean and modern. We opted for a deluxe room for a small fee and we wasn’t disappointed. The walk in pool along with the gorgeous views made it such a lovely experience. The pool area is nice and big with a bar and kitchen open from 10:00-18:00 which was reasonably priced. There was a couple things which we were slightly disappointed with; the food in the Olympia restaurant was at best, mediocre. We went for breakfast on the first morning and only returned once more after. We also paid for an evening meal which was once again, poor. The food was bland and tasteless and lukewarm. I would say the breakfast is just about manageable but wouldn’t recommend going for the evening meal as an extra. There was also many occasions where the card machines at the shop and bars would just go down and you could only pay in cash. Admittedly this isn’t a massive issue but for travellers who carry little cash it did sometimes cause an issue. To round it off, I must say the staff at the hotel were so friendly and welcoming. The people of Rhodes are so friendly and welcoming and overall you will have an amazing experience at the hotel.

I stayed here for a week with my friend. Absolute no fault to anything. The hotel is gorgeous and in an amazing area. The entertainment staff / staff in general could not be more kind and welcoming. The entertainment itself was incredible - we looked forward to every day and evening , full of fun and laughter. Such a lovely team of people who made our stay completely rememberable.

Awful, We arrived at the KRESTEN palace on Tuesday the 20th of may, Where shown to our rooms, and just as the porter was leaving he received a message that we had the wrong key, he proceeded to remove the key from the wall power switch, which sent the room into darkness, as we had no lights and the hallway to our room was not lit, I turned to pass something to my wife and hit my leg on the corner of the very badly designed beds, I tore a piece of flesh and skin from my leg, 4cm long and 3cm wide and felt blood gushing down my leg and onto my trainers and the floor, I asked my wife to help me get my jeans off so I could do something, and as she helped me take off my jeans a lump of skin and flesh fell onto the floor. The porter asked if I needed a plaster??!! I explained it was worse than that and could he get a first aider?, there where none on site, or employed by the hotel. My wife stemmed the bleeding and the porter then arrived with, a carrier bag of ice and a first aid kit that had a bandage, a couple of plasters and a burns gel in it, all this for an hotel the catered for a few hundred guests! We then left the room and decided as I had an injury we would stay on site and eat and drink at the poolside bar, I ordered the gyros plate my wife had a ceaser salad that she said was delicious, whilst my gyros plate was stone cold as where the fry’s that came with it, I carried on as I didn’t want to spoil the holiday and took a drone from my icy cold mythos beer I was looking forward to, this contained some foreign object that when I spat out I discovered was a ripped open sugar sachet that had been frozen onto the glass, delicious…… We didn’t bother with the pool restaurant again. Breakfast was pleasant but certain items where cold, Brussels sprouts and carrots are really not my kind of thing at 8am To summarise poor customer service, poor food,definitely not a 4 star establishment, but if you decide to book,I’d say save your money book an apartment or villa in pefkos and you’ll have a far superior holiday.

Went here with my sister and it was amazing to say the least. The bar and food at the pool was amazing and the private beach was beautiful and relaxing. It’s only 20 minuets from the airport and not too far from old town and Falliraki. Staff were absolutely amazing we would definitely stay here again.
