We arrived at the hotel in the morning, around 9:45. We were warmly greeted by the hotel manager, Anastasia. Her smile and pleasant tone made us feel as if the hotel had been personally waiting for us as its most important guests. After safely leaving our luggage, we were invited to the hotel restaurant to enjoy some coffee and breakfast while our room was being prepared. My husband and I are truly impressed by the exceptionally kind and attentive staff, and we’re eagerly looking forward to our room! Let the holiday in Rhodes begin — at the Hippocampus Hotel!

Amazing service. Very nice staff that helped me at anytime. The manager George was very professional and friendly. In general it was our first time in Greece and the service here is unlike anywhere else we have been, from everyone we talked to but especially at this hotel. The rooms were clean and had everything you would need. They were cleaned daily. The room has working AC and black out blinds. The location is good as it is close to a beach and a €12/€15 taxi ride from Rhodes city centre. The food and cocktails at the restaurant are also very tasty and as a guest at the hotel you get a discount.

We stayed here for 5 nights and enjoyed it very much. We were upgraded to a suite with a large balcony. Our rooms, and in fact all the hotel, were immaculately clean throughout. There was a delightful welcome gift in our room. George, the manager and his staff were friendly and always happy to help. They even served our breakfast an hour early one day for us to go on an excursion. The hotel is conveniently located for buses into Rhodes old town yet away from the hustle bustle. It’s only a stroll away from some lovely beaches and great restaurants. Really believe this hotel deserves a higher star rating!

Had a fantastic stay at the Hippocampus hotel, lovely rooms amazing staff , Nico was very welcoming and helpful and the lady a breakfast was super friendly and helpful- breakfast was a traditional Greek range plentiful and very fresh daily, as a guest you receive 15% off the bar and restaurant prices . Location is on the main Rhodes town road and can be a little noisy, there is no pool but local hotels do rent out sun beds . I would most definitely stay here again

The restaurant is in a very convenient location, close to town and just near the bus stop. There are also many other restaurants and supermarkets nearby, which makes it an easy and accessible spot. The customer service is excellent — the staff and servers are very friendly, attentive, and accommodating. Overall, it’s a great place to dine and relax. Highly recommended!

This restaurant is one of the best places I’ve visited! The food is really delicious everything is well-cooked, flavorful, and beautifully presented. You can tell that the chef is skilled and passionate about their work. The staff are also very friendly, attentive, and always ready to help with a smile. The place feels warm and welcoming, perfect for family meals or hanging out with friends. Everything here from the food to the service is excellent. I’ll definitely be coming back again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great dining experience!
