일리시온 호텔

Overall it was a fairly pleasant stay, however, the room wasn't cleaned properly, and the en-suite was disappointing. It was the smallest en-suite I have ever come across, not to mention the sink was dirty, the toilet seat was loose and the shower was tiny. The shower had a curtain, and due to how small the shower was the curtain stuck to you. I never felt thoroughly cleansed after taking a shower. The staff appear to be over-worked which is probably why we were barely ever greeted with a smile. The food was rather average, about what I've come to expect from an all inclusive buffet. Furthermore, breakfast was disappointing particularly with a mere 2 slice toaster to accommodate such a busy hotel. What isn't detailed when booking is the €30 deposit for 2 drink cups (one per person), room key, air conditioning remote and TV remotely! Yes, you get it back at the end of your stay but I have never experienced this in any hotel I have ever stayed in. Considering it is classed as a 4* hotel, it was disappointing to discover there was no safe in the room. Another deposit was required for this and was kept behind the reception desk...I didn't consider the reception desk to be safe, it wasn't always manned and there was no lock/key pad to stop unauthorised persons from walking in. The hotel's 'beach' was, again, disappointing, it looked untidy/unkempt, and to get into the sea there were metal steps which were a slip hazard. The area around these steps didn't have a safety fence/bars, certainly not safe for children. The sea was lovely once in there, but it was deep, too deep to stand up in. There are a lot of stairs to contend with in this hotel, we were on the second floor, and were we not relatively fit it would have been a struggle. There were stairs down to the restaurant, stairs down to the pools and steps down to the beach. It would not be suitable to anyone unsteady on their feet/wheelchair users/people with walking aids. Getting drinks at the pool bar and the main bar can be tiresome, as there are often long queues due to one member of staff on shift, sometimes there two staff, but rarely. I like the idea of plastic cups and the drinks token system with regards to the environment, it keeps the pool areas tidy from plastic cups, but being limited to one drink per person with such small cups can be tedious. The main ***** in Pefkos is fabulous, we had many a good night down there, including an afternoon/evening in nearby Lindos. There are a number of restaurants and bars to choose from in Pefkos, we weren't disappointed. We visited Plakia Beach on one of our days, lovely beach with sunbeds available to hire and a beach bar in close proximity. I'm happy to have experienced Rhodes and would be happy to return to the country, and even Pefkos, but to a different hotel and one that wasn't quite so far out.
