Hotel Galaxias

Very nice and clean hotel with super friendly and responsible staff. The lady at the reception was so kind and helpful. One can reach the old city center on foot, following the short path described in the hotel guidebook (15-20 minute walk). The bus stops to many destinations are also located nearby. We really appreciated the detailed touristic guidebook prepared by the hotel, which was quite helpful.

The hotel staff are exceptional, friendly and helpful. They went the extra mile when we thought we lost a phone, giving us advice on bus timetables instead of using a taxi, opening the bar and garden when we came back after a days sightseeing and wanted a drink The breakfast options were lovely and contained a huge variety of food to choose from. We stayed at the start and end of our trip so had two different rooms and both were lovely. One had a balcony which was lovely although was facing the road which was a little noisy. The toiletries were a nice touch and the rooms were cleaned on a daily basis. The only downside I would say was that the service options were a little basic in comparison to some of the other hotels we stayed at but considering the location we could survive without these..

Staff made this place a joy to stay in, super friendly whenever we walked past the front desk & had a nice chat with us before we left for our flights, good location fairly close to the old town, takes about 20 minutes to walk. Would recommend this place.

I thoroughly enjoyed my recent stay at Hotel Galaxias.
I was welcomed by Anna at reception with an 8 page booklet of helpful information about Rhodes, included restaurants and things to do. This subsequently resulted in me dining in one of the restaurants (Kalammmakia) and visiting the Rodos Acropolis , both from their booklet and enjoyed them both! Anna was so helpful, organising the best way to get to the ferry port. Another reception staff gave me the verbal instructions to catch the bus to Lindos (something Google Maps couldn’t provide), which was key to me experiencing this pretty town.

The room I stayed in (delux room) was very comfortable, with tea making facilities and a stocked mini fridge with a price list. The large bed was so comfortable and the bathroom spacious and clean. I love the decoration, especially the ceiling above the bed- see attached photo. The staff informed me this was one of their newly decorated rooms. I could tell, it was so well done.

As a solo female traveller, I felt completely safe in this neighbourhood and in the hotel.

I can’t thank the staff enough- they made my stay stress free and enjoyable. I would highly recommend. Thank you!!

This hotel is fantastic! The rooms are cleaned daily and everything is spotless. The hotel is beautiful, with lovely decor. Breakfast is delicious with a great variety. The reception staff are incredibly kind and helpful. Highly recommended! ☺️

The receptionist people was so kind they helped me to make a taci reservation and aslo they have a guide paper they wrote how to go to old town fastly, places, restaurants etc. Helped me a lot thank you for everything . Room was clean, there is a elevator also that is nice

We didn't stay here, but we needed emergency bag storage services and the staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating. We really appreciated it!

The staff is friendly and welcoming. They always greeted us with a smile! The room very neat and beautiful, cozy as if we were at home. The interior of the hotel attracts a lot of Greek tradition, it is an elegant.
Good location!

Hotel Galaxias is a brilliantly positioned hotel for the Rhodes traveller. Cheaper than many other hotels that are near/in the Old town, it needs a 20 minute walk through the backstreets of Rhodes to where all the action is. The staff are friendly and welcoming and the rooms are clean, well-maintained and quiet. The plus sides to the hotel include excellent wi-fi, luxurious dining/breakfast area and a private balcony. When there was a problem (i.e leaking air con) it was dealt with quickly. The only room issue I could see was that the shower is too small and water leaks onto the bathroom floor, I doubt a large person would enjoy a shower and could probably not turn around easily. Bear in mind this hotel has the usual Greek toilets (no toilet paper down the toilet) so it may cause alarm to some. There was only one other problem I found with the hotel - my family were staying near the Old town and wanted to visit me in my room, but the hotel has a very strict policy of not allowing anyone else in apart from those staying into the hotel unless they surrender their passports at the desk. Even then the possible visit time was limited . I could not understand this policy as I have been to many hotels around the world even the luxurious one do not have this policy. I can only assume they've had an issue with damage in the past from outside guests but I found it rather strange they wouldn't allow anyone else in, even if I knew them. Apart from this, I can highly recommend Hotel Galaxias to any Rhodes traveller.
