The Sunrise Hotel has a great swimming pool and a nice family feel. The pool bar serves food throughout the day and the staff lay on entertainment once a week, a greek night with BBQ. Out room was adequate, the balcony view faced bushes and trees so not the best room in the place. The room was clean and we had maids come to clean almost every day replacing towels and linen.

The shower was in need of repair, we had to hold the shower head to shower, which after 7 nights becomes a real pain, it wouldnt cost that much to fix the shower to the wall.
Overall the Sunrise was a good price and it was clean, so it was fine for us. I wouldn't stay here again, as it is too far out of the resort, its a good 15min walk to the beach and 10min walk to the centre.. in 34 degree heat thats pretty far. I would look to stay nearer the beach and centre, I saw Hotel Mediterranie, which is very central and my sister has stayed here and recommends it, also Hotel Consentina - which looked very lovely.

If you prefer the pool to the beach, then stay here its fine for a budget place. If you want to be nearer the beach then opt for something else.

Also - be aware that you are charged for:
a) using the fridge - 12 Euros a week
b) Air Con - 6 Euros a day
c) Safety deposit boxes - 12 Euros a week.

So out £175 for the week soon become 200 - and we might have opted to stay elsewhere...if we had realised all the add on costs.

We stayed at the hotel at April...The service was very good and the stuff was very friendly and answered all of our questions about the island(best places etc.) there is a large swimming pool ,which is pleasure to see from your balcony, at the center of the hotel, and the rooms are clean.The only problem we had was some inconveniences in the bathroom but I guess these must have been fixed...There is also good breakfast in the morning. Generally a very good option to stay,and not far from the center of the island...

Thank you Nicos and family for another wonderful stay at your hotel. We look forward to our next relaxing holiday at the Sunrise.

Just got back from yet another fantastic stay at the Sunrise. I've got to say this is the best Greek hotel I've ever stayed in - and I've been to many Greek islands & resorts. I've never been one for returning to holiday destinations as there are so many places to see in this world, but must confess that I've now been back to the Sunrise seven times in the last 4 years. The island is lovely, the people are so friendly and the staff at the Sunrise have now become very good friends. Nikos & Sotiria run the hotel with their two sons George & Jimmy, along with others including Stelios the barman who is a diamond!

They have recently upgraded one of their rooms to a premium standard as a trial. This is a really superb room - exceeding the standard of many superior rooms in hotels in the UK and I doubt you you will find a better standard anywhere in Greece. The other rooms are typically Greek i.e. basic, but they are serviced every day with clean towels & sheets every couple of days.

The restaurant is used for breakfast with a good range of hot & cold food. The Greek barbecue night is a real highlight, with lots of traditional Greek fare and the customary dancing and mayhem - a night not to be missed!

There is a website www.sunrisehotel.gr where there is more information. Independent travellers can also book rooms via the website then sort out flights - something I will be doing for my next visit in September....
