Faces Art Suites

Staying at Faces Art Suites was an absolute delight—far beyond what I expected from a rental apartment. It truly feels like a 5-star hotel experience, with every detail thoughtfully designed and impeccably maintained. The unit is brand new, spotlessly clean, and packed with premium amenities: three TVs, an iron and ironing board, full kitchenware, a Nespresso coffee machine with daily refills of capsules, plus tea, chamomile, hot cocoa, and even daily housekeeping with fresh towels and bathrobes. We stayed in the "Ideal" apartment for four people—about 50–55 sqm, split into two cozy zones. One side has a fully equipped kitchen, two sofas, a queen bed with a plush topper, and a closet; the other room has another queen bed and storage space. Perfectly balanced for comfort and privacy. The decor is elegant and thoughtful, with attention to detail you rarely see even in high-end hotels. Every window has mosquito nets, and both rooms feature individual air conditioning—essential during summer in Rhodes. Our host, Ms. Mitsi, was exceptional—warm, gracious, and incredibly attentive. Despite our limited English, she made us feel welcome and comfortable throughout our stay. She went out of her way to ensure we had everything we needed, even leaving a welcome basket of fresh fruit and a bottle of excellent red wine upon arrival. The location is unbeatable—right in the heart of New Rhodes, yet tucked away on a quiet little street with zero noise from restaurants or nightlife. If you're looking for a stylish, well-equipped, and peaceful getaway with outstanding value, this place is a must-book. Highly recommended.

Emmanuel Apartments

I can't say enough good things about this place — it was an absolutely amazing stay for the price we paid. Located just a short walk from the town center, bus station, and some of the most beautiful beaches on the island, it’s incredibly convenient. While not luxurious, the apartment was fully equipped with everything you’d need for a comfortable holiday: air conditioning, washing machine, kettle, kitchenware, hairdryer, a proper fridge, and even a lovely balcony with a drying rack. The rooms are cleaned every other day, and fresh towels are provided — really thoughtful. It’s in a quiet residential neighborhood, and there’s a gorgeous avocado tree right outside the balcony, which adds such a peaceful, welcoming touch. The owners are incredibly kind and helpful, and they were very flexible with check-in and check-out times — no stress at all. If we ever return to Rhodes, we’ll definitely be booking Emmanuel’s Apartments again, especially Room No. 10. Highly recommend!

Staying at Allegory Boutique Hotel was an absolute highlight of our trip to Rhodes! The location is perfect—right in the heart of the old town, yet peaceful and quiet, far from the tourist crowds.

It’s such a special touch—sipping coffee while watching the sun rise over the ancient streets. A huge shoutout to Raluka (hope I got the name right!)—she was incredibly kind, professional, attentive, and always smiling. What made it even better? She speaks French, which made communication so easy and personal. The breakfast spread was generous and delicious: fresh orange juice, coffee, tea, ham, cheeses, tomatoes, olives, labneh with jam and honey, plus a variety of fresh fruits. Everything was fresh and well-prepared. This hotel truly offers a warm, authentic experience with excellent value. We’ll definitely be back!
