Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Ancient Olympic Stadium

This UNESCO-listed venue hosted stadion races (180m sprint) and discus throwing. The stone starting blocks with toe grooves and the discus circle markings are remarkably preserved, reflecting Panhellenic Games standards.

Partial access is available via the northern ramp entrance. However, the original stone seating areas require crossing uneven terrain. A 3D virtual tour app with audio description is recommended for visitors with mobility challenges.

Certified Hellenic Ministry guides offer 45-minute tours in English/French/German (€10/person). Highlights include the athletes' tunnel and the sacrificial altar ruins. Private bookings require 24-hour notice via the official website.

Sturdy closed-toe shoes are essential due to rough marble surfaces. Bring sunglasses and hats as shade is limited. Photography is permitted but tripods require special permit from the onsite archaeological office.

About 75% original materials were used in the 1960s restoration, particularly in the starting line markers. The east tribune retains its authentic curvature, while the missing columns were intentionally left unrestored per UNESCO conservation guidelines.

A designated pathway along the track edge allows close observation without damaging the ancient surface. Touching the 2,300-year-old stone lap counter is strictly prohibited. Ranger patrols enforce these heritage protection rules rigorously.

Atrium Platinum Luxury Resort Hotel and Spa

Everything was absolutely top-notch—from the friendly staff to the delicious food and excellent services. The only downside is that there isn’t much going on around the hotel in the evenings for nightlife, and the entertainment at the hotel bar wraps up by 11 PM. If you're looking for a lively night out, you might need to explore a bit further or plan alternative activities. That said, the overall experience was outstanding, with great comfort, quality, and value. I’d definitely stay here again and would recommend it to others seeking a peaceful yet luxurious getaway.

Grande Dame Villa of Rhodes

This villa is absolutely stunning! From the moment we arrived, everything felt thoughtfully designed and incredibly welcoming. Stelios, our host, was warm and attentive—always ready to help with anything we needed throughout our stay. The pool area is spacious and beautifully maintained, perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring Rhodes. Each room is generously sized and comfortable, making it ideal for larger groups. There's ample parking space on the driveway, which is a big plus if you're traveling by car. The property itself is immaculately kept, with a serene atmosphere and just the right mix of privacy and convenience. It’s well located for driving to nearby supermarkets and attractions without being too far from the town center. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better home base during our trip. Without hesitation, I’d give this villa a solid 10/10—it’s a standout experience that exceeds expectations.

Kresten Royal Euphoria Resort

Our stay at Kresten Royal Euphoria Resort was absolutely unforgettable — every single detail exceeded our expectations. From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond with their warm hospitality and attention to detail. We were upgraded to a sea-view room, and waking up to that breathtaking ocean view every morning was pure magic. The room itself was spacious, beautifully furnished, and impeccably clean — a true home away from home. The food was exceptional: diverse, fresh, and full of authentic Greek flavors we couldn’t get enough of. The pool area is stunning — plenty of loungers, a lively bar, and relaxing vibes all day long. Evenings were magical thanks to the high-quality entertainment shows that added charm to our nights. The location is perfect for exploring: Koskinou village and Kalithea Thermen are just a short walk away, while Rhodes Town is only 20 minutes by bus (line 40), and Lindos is easily reachable in about an hour and 20 minutes via bus 30. The bus stop is literally a 5-minute walk from the hotel — super convenient. We’ve seen some negative reviews online, but after experiencing it firsthand, we simply can’t understand them. This resort isn’t just great for relaxation; it’s also ideal for travelers interested in culture and history. Whether you’re looking for peace, adventure, or a romantic getaway, this place delivers on all fronts. We’ll definitely be back — truly one of the best experiences we’ve had on holiday.

The location combines convenience with tranquility, making it ideal for both exploring the island and unwinding after a day of sightseeing. Highly recommend this gem on Rhodes!

The food is delicious—fresh, well-prepared, and satisfying. I can't say enough good things about this gem. It's perfectly located just steps from the beach, close to town for exploring, and offers convenient free parking. I’ll definitely be coming back and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Rhodes.

Sirene Beach Hotel

We had a wonderful two-week stay at Sirene Beach Hotel with my partner, and I can't understand all the complaints in other reviews. For the price you pay, it's hard to find a better hotel anywhere else. If you're looking for a quiet location just steps away from Rhodes Town, fully renovated, with an extensive buffet (even more generous than expected), all-inclusive service, sea views, excellent cleanliness, and friendly, attentive staff, you’d need to spend at least €250 per person per week extra elsewhere. The buffet isn’t overly large, but daily options include at least four different meat dishes and one fresh seafood dish that changes each day. There are always at least three rotating salads and various other choices. Rooms feel a bit dated but come with very comfortable beds and mattresses, and everything is spotlessly clean—no mold or calcium stains anywhere. The spacious balcony offers great views, and when doors are closed, there’s zero noise from the street. Every staff member—from housekeeping and front desk to bar and restaurant teams, even the general manager—is genuinely dedicated to guest comfort. No request is too small, and help is always prompt and kind. A few minor drawbacks: not enough power outlets in rooms (we brought extension cords, so it wasn’t an issue). The corridor flooring is tiled, so rolling suitcases can make quite a noise when arriving or departing. Also, a few more trash bins would be helpful—otherwise guests have to search for a bin with their waste. Most beach loungers are worn out and clearly in need of replacement. Overall, the value-for-money ratio is outstanding—way beyond expectations. This place truly delivers if you’re on vacation, not just paying for a room. Treat your stay like a guest should—with respect and openness—and you’ll have an absolutely fantastic holiday.

Villa Stergos

Stygos Villa is an absolute gem! From the moment we arrived, the host made us feel incredibly welcome and at home. The pool and jacuzzi are perfect for relaxing after a day exploring the island—especially in the evening when the breeze is just right. It's incredibly close to the beach, making it ideal for kite surfing enthusiasts like us. The entire villa is fully air-conditioned, which was a huge plus during our summer visit. Everything was spotlessly clean, down to the smallest detail. As a large family from England, we appreciated the spacious layout and privacy each room offered. The location, comfort, and hospitality truly exceeded our expectations. We’re already planning our return trip—this place feels like a second home.

But what truly made our stay exceptional were the hosts. Warm, genuinely helpful, and always ready with thoughtful local tips without being intrusive. They added such a personal touch that elevated the entire experience. We travel frequently, and this is one of the best accommodations we’ve ever stayed at—highly recommend it to anyone visiting Rhodes.

I booked well in advance—this area is popular and hard to secure. From the moment we arrived, we felt completely at home: clean, spacious, and thoughtfully designed. The staff member Nefise was outstanding—she checked in every evening to ask about our breakfast preferences and timing, even helped us prepare a guide for our day trip to Simi Island.

The rooms and food here are absolutely fantastic! The hotel is well-connected to the city center—just a short ride on the metro, making it super convenient for exploring.

For authentic Greek cuisine, you don’t need to go far—just head down to the hotel’s restaurant and enjoy delicious, flavorful dishes that truly capture the spirit of local cooking. And then there’s Penelope—the hostess herself—warm, welcoming, and genuinely amazing. She made our stay feel personal and special. I can’t recommend this place enough. A true gem in Rhodes.
