I cant believe that someone stayed there the same month we did, and thought the service was good. I wonder if there was 100% staff turnover since?

Look, If you stay on the fifth floor, and you have managed the stairs up from the road, its going to have done you a lot of good, physically. But many of the rooms are pretty much the smallest I have ever seen. Added to that, the beds have wooden frames, so if you approach six foot, your feet are going to rest on the wooden frame.

I would happily overlook the steps - heck I enjoyed the exercise - but service was just appalling. We were a group of 30 plus Aussies, and we needed a drink. The lights were off at the bar (alongside the pool) and after 30 minutes we left the property to buy beers down the road. Wow, that got the lights turned on in the bar, and the comment: "The bar was open, but the lights were just off" (Yeah, and so was the bar man!!!1)

Breakfast had almost no fruit (Yeah that's something I like) and there was NO liquid or juice to drink other than fresh orange juice at 5 lire. Yeah 5 lire is cheap, but no alternative except paying extra!!!

There is a time-out of the lights over the internal stairs. Yeah - no lift. And pretty much every time, they cut out with TWO floors still to cover. That's not just stupid, its plain dangerous. These are curving circular stairs.

Sadly the receptionist looked like she would rather be anywhere except here. As I was on tour and did not pay directly, I do not have any way to place a "value" on the experience.

We stayed for two days at Medusa Hotel and we had a very nice experience there.
Bedrooms are very clean, the seaview is just amazing! Service was great, the staff was very friendly and helpful... not only within the hotel, but also the staff that worked at Medusa's private beach in front of the hotel. by the way, very nice and relaxing area.
Breakfast was very rich, with fruits, breads, cereal, etc. The only thing we did not like is that the orange juice would be extra. Except for that, everything was fine.

Medusa Hotel was a very good example of a basic quality. Especially the cleanness of the rooms and hotel facilities impressed me. The location is unbelivable and the view is amazing worth everything. It is also very close to everything. Personnel is very helpful and dedicated. The breakfast could have been a bit better however decent enough. The stairs are a bit demanding and need to be careful-for information of whom cares about that. the hotel also has a little deck used as a beach in the day and restauramt in the night which is very nice. One night we ate there and it was very romantic and the food was more than acceptable. So I strongly recommend this hotel and especially Kas!

We stayed in Medusa Hotel with my wife at the end of August 2011 for three nights. The location of the Hotel is very good, 5 mins. walking distance to the city center. Like the other hotels in the neighborhood, it has a platform with lounges by the sea, where you can have sun bath and swim in the wonderful bay of Kucukcakil. Hiring a lounge and a sunshade is for free, but you have to reserve one before around 10:00 a.m. otherwise you may not find an empty one. You can order lunch and soft/alcoholic beverages as well. The staff of the Medusa beach restaurant is very nice and friendly.
Our room was a deluxe one on the third floor. It had a really exceptional view of whole bay and the isle Kastellorizo. However the Hotel has no elevator! If you are young and climbing over hundred steps to your room to third floor does not matter to you, then there is no problem. (Well, I counted them; around 60 steps to reach the reception from the street and 40 more to the third floor :)) We stayed bed and breakfast, the breakfast was average. The rooms are clean and have a balcony with great view if your room is on the front side of the Hotel. I recommend you to have a dinner at least one evening in the Medusa beach restaurant. The sundown is wonderful and you can have your dinner just over the waves. Try sea bass with mezes and raki, of course :)
