Reviews
The staff was very kind, smiling and helpful, food was delicious, room was cleaned every day. The pool was clean and big enough to swim. It was a pleasure to be a guest there!
The only slight letdown when we checked in was the lobby, which has some outdated furniture that stands out and slightly mars the first impression. However, once you get to your room and settle in, you realize that the hotel offers great value for money, and everything else is just perfect — quiet, comfortable, and very pleasant!
Highly recommended!
The French Tual family says a big THANK YOU!
By far, the best crew we’ve ever come across in a hostel.
Kind, helpful, always smiling — the team taking care of Mariana Palace is just LOVELY.
I’ve seen some pretty harsh reviews here, and honestly… they’re over the top.
Some people seem to expect the impossible and then complain: “thAt’s nOt gOoD enOugh…” 🙄
Let’s be real — those comments say more about the people than the place.
Once again, thank you Mariana Palace for the warm welcome and great energy.
We’ll remember this stay for a long time.
Having read some of the reviews, I was very nervous that I'd inadvertently booked a hell hole and was more than relieved to discover that some of the criticisms from others are exaggerated to say the least.
The place is very clean and tidy, a great deal of care is placed into the presentation of the hotel. The double room was clean, tidy, spacious and a pleasant place to cool off and relax in the July heat. There was also no charge for air-con at all. We ran it 24/7, even when not in the room and it was not even mentioned by the staff.
The pool is lovely. Clean and the perfect temperature. A decent enough size for the number of guests, it never felt too crowded.
The bar was great, although the 2 pool bar staff made drinks of very different strengths to one another, but it didn't seem to be watered down. One criticism is that there wasn't a lot choice in comparison to other hotel bars we drank at, only about 8 different cocktails and one beer brand, but it was all very tasty and had enough that you didn't feel like you were repeating yourself over and over.
A few ants were present in the sun lounging area in the gardens/pool area, but it's Mediterranean heat, so nothing unexpected or even particularly noticeable.
Great location with many bars and resteraunts within a 20 minute walk (or 5 if you want to be and extra lazy) and Kolympia is very beautiful as a region.
However, despite all these positives, the food is truly awful, on ocassion to the point of being inedible. Be prepared to spend a lot of time and money eating out, like we did because we felt like we had too. Eggs were rubbery, chicken was fatty and overcooked. Rice tasted stale, every meal was poor at best ,and was bad enough to meaningfully detract from the rest of what is otherwise a very charming hotel.
Well be coming back to Rhodes, without question, but it is purely because if the food that we won't be staying here again
