We booked a 4* hotel (Kalithea or something), but when we arrived the tourist guied told, that they running out of free rooms. Fine :( She said that it's normal there (in Rhodes), when you book something you can never be sure what you get. Good to know. So they offered us a room in a 5* hotel. Wow. I've never been in a five star hotel during vacation. (But I know very well, cause I worked in luxury hotels). So we were very happy although we booked another one. The hotel located in beautiful hillside. The view is amazing, but it's not so close to the beach. There is a hotel bus what you can use to get to the beach and back all day long. So it was not a huge problem for us. But for paretns with children, or older people I can not recommend. The main building and a restaurant has a nice, clean 4* interior and the food was absolutely fine. A huge buffet with large selection for breakfast and dinner. For dinner you can choose between the buffet and a 3 course menu. In the main building there is a swimming pool, a bar and a lobby. The garden is beautiful, full of with trees and flowers. You also can find a few animals, cause there is a kind of zoo there. We got an apartment located almost on the top of the hill. The view from our balcony, as I told was amazing. The room itself was a time travel. The furnitures stucked there from the '80s. It was so funny... Nevertheless everithing was clean. But still. In 2011... After all we spent there a beautiful week, so if they offer you good price, and you don't mind that it's not on the beach (it was so quite, and we loved it) and if you don't care of retro furnitures, go and visit them. Oh, before I forget. You sholud rent a car and travel all around the island. You can find very nice places, restaurants, people there!
Have a nice trip!!!!
