“A small slice of home”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 October 2011
1
person found this review helpful

White palace sounded a little sketchy at first, and for eight euro a night per person I was thinking about roaches and prostitutes. Instead when we arrived it was like a breath of fresh air. Clean floors, rooms, pool, and free internet, use of grill, linens, and towels, we were pleasantly surprised. If you are staying in Faliraki, I highly recommend this hotel. The city is very touristic, and Pavlos and his wife are a fistful of information on the island and everything to do and see. The only thing I would suggest is having a bottle opener with the silverware... my boyfriend and I hunted all over for one =) Thanks and enjoy!

Room Tip: First floor rooms... when you eat outside be prepared for several cats to join you for breakfast/lun...

“Clean, friendly, great location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 October 2011

i stayed here last month for 3 nights. We were in a triple room for 2 nights, and then changed to two double rooms our last night, because a friend was joining us, all 3 rooms were completely clean. This is more of a hotel than a hostel. Its a family run business, so it gives you that warm, friendly, caring atmosphere.

“Racist woman who runs the place...”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 September 2011

The facilities include: Cold showers that are too small to move in(I weigh 125, I'm not a large person), Kitchenettes (which you are free to use but please note you must bring your own EVERYTHING ELSE. INCLUDING DISH SOAP) and a pool. You may think the price is good but please factor in that you have to pay 2.50Euro to get from Rhodos to Faliraki and another 2.50 to get back again. You may think you could just walk. I thought so too. It took 5 hours.
The man that runs the place is nice but his wife is awful.

I couldn't believe how openly racist she was. It was really uncomfortable. She just kept going on and on about her small minded views. I thought it was beyond unprofessional.

Also, keep in mind you can't bring your own drinks so if you want to enjoy a drink by the pool you'll have to pay for it.

The reception is only open for a couple hours everyday so outside of that if you need anything you're on your own.

Overall I would say DON'T SUPPORT RACISM! GO SOMEWHERE ELSE!

Room Tip: Stay somewhere else :)

Self catering studios does not require to supply dish shop or any thing else.Linen and room cleaned every 2 days. Free wiFi, free aircondition ,free safe box and free use of BBQ are more than plenty . Description correct. Close to beach. If your holiday was for city , then wrong resort was chosen.
As business running from 1996 , we cater to ALL nationalities and sexual preferences. Do not feel racist comment stands. In NO way, are there preferences to any one RACE or SEX.
Pool bar does not obligate you to purchase ANYTHING but it isnot POLITE or TAX correct to bring drinks from else when music, sun chairs , are supplied for free.

“Great hotel with great facilities.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 July 2011

person found this review helpful

This was one of my favourite places to stay whilst away.
They are in fact self serviced apartments and whilst a little older have been well looked after.
We arrived late at night and they had left our key for us at reception which wad very kind. Usually you need to call ahead when arriving as late as we did.
It is located just a short walk from Faliraki beach and bar street. Which is great as you are close to the action without all the noise.
The other bonus was they had their own car park for any rent a cars or bikes you hire over there.

“Cheap, uncomfortable, horrible owner. For a hostel, go elsewhere.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 July 2011

I booked this place after researching everywhere, and wished I never had.

1- While we were on our vacation, I received several emails saying that if I didn't confirm we would lose our booking! WHAT!? I confirmed just before I left, and Pavlos said all was good. Talk about worried on a 2 month vacation! We were on the road, far from telephones and every
email I sent, went ignored. We held our breath and hoped for the best.

2, When we did arrive the taxis were on strike so he tried to sell us on renting a car from his brothers business. We refused, and when we told him he said he'd have to move us from our room to another. C'mon man, we booked it six months ago, and we're only there fir 2 nights!

3, When he told us he was going to switch rooms, he said he would switch our bags for us while we enjoyed the beach. Lo and behold, upon our return to the "hotel" there were our bags, right in the reception area! All the stuff we owned and needed sitting right there.

Yup, I know for a hostel you shouldn't expect much but this guy was a [--] and I would tell anyone and everyone because of his lack of care, do yourself a favor, and book somewhere else.

Hope this helps...

Hostel world/ bookers recieives the 10 % as a deposit , not white palace. Property requires CCV in order to secure booking as they there is a policy of a ONE night charge in case of no show. It is standard that all guests are asked to send cvv in order to verify booking. Many times , there are cancelations and guests FORGET to inform hostel. In these cases the property looses out as it turns away others during peak season.
Many guests leave their belonging in the waiiting area. NOT ONCE has anything gone missing since 1996 upon opening. If the area were not safe then , it would be understood to panic!
Owner , has no brother. Perhaps , he just wanted to help out during the taxi strike ., everyone free to rent from anyone they wish. As far as having to move rooms, sometimes that may happen , in order to accommodate others who have a serious problem of climbing stairs or families with young children. I appologise for any inconvenience. That too has happened to me in a 5 star hotel.
