“A bad joke”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 May 2007

That was a terrible hotel in a beautifull island. The only reason I chose that hotel was a previous possitive experience with the Louis group. I've been in lodgings, back in the U.S.A. when I were younger, that were better and cleaner than the Helios. Definitely not a "Category A" hotel.

The personell at the reception, bar and restaurant are very polite and helpfull. Sometimes I got the impression that they also felt embarassed that the hotel was not upto our expectations.

Besides that, the only restaurant is small and the menu is an identical buffet, day after day. I was glad I hadn't booked an all inclussive holiday ; Out of the 7 payed dinners (half board), I skipped three and went to Kardamena village instead.

The rooms are renovated and clean, yet the towels were unbelievably worn by long and extensive use.

The ageing pool area is not in a good shape. The pool is very small for the number of tourists accomodated in the Helios. The beach is about 15 minutes walk (nice beach) although the hotel was supposed to be a Beach Hotel!

So, a possitive oppinion for the personell. A negative oppinion for everything else. I would not recomend it!

“think twice”

person found this review helpful

we stayed sept 2006.
room clean and reasonable. bottle of wine provided but no opener and no one intrested in opening the bottle either.
reception staff opten rude and abrupt.
if you like butlins this is the holiday for you.
very down market, loud with 70's disco music and loud children's entertainment consatntly.
beach is not attached to the hotel and a not very nice walk from hotel or beach either.
don't bank on the free loungers as advertised either.
distinct lack of taverna's on the beach unlesss you walk to town.
ugly to watch the constant drinking and eating of the all inclusive package types.
food clean but lots of flies. nice but by the 5th day boring.
cannot recommend this holiday if you want a decent break without children, boozers and the hi de hi atmosphere.
the saddest holiday for me after 5years travelling the greek islands.

“terrible”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 December 2006

people found this review helpful

if you want to be treated well and with respect and descency then i suggest you do not stay at the 'louis helios'. The leader of the hotel entertainment staff was rude to me and my family. he made nasty remarks about me to others at every opportunity....mainly regarding the scar that is on my face.this type of behavior is disgraceful....plus he would play a particular song every time i would try to join in with the entertainment.'who let the dogs out'...yes you may laugh but it is embarrasing when you are trying to enjoy yourself with family. i spent most of the holiday in the hotel room.
so all i suggest is that unless you have the most perfect of faces then do not stay at this place.

  • Liked — the friendly cleaning staff
  • Disliked — hotel entertainment staff
  • Tips/Secrets — yes just pray that some staff are no longer employed there
