Your Hotel in Rhodes

Enjoying a dry, mild climate almost all year round, Rhodes is the gateway to discovering all the islands of the Dodecanese. A majestic town par excellence, Rhodes offers many opportunities for sightseeing and other tourist activities, both cultural and sporting.

Occupying a strategic position in the Mediterranean, Rhodes displays a magical panorama of forest-covered mountains, vineyards and magnificent sandy beaches. But the beauty of the setting cannot overshadow the magic of this unusual medieval city, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. So begin your discovery of Rhodes with the old town and its maze of cobbled lanes with their irresistible charm. The Palace of the Grand Master has plenty to offer. This imposing fortress plunges you into the world of the Knights Hospitaller and the medieval atmosphere.

Outside the town, small whitewashed villages and seaside resorts dot the island, such as Archangelos, Charaki and Stegna. The village of Koskinou is worth a detour for its authentic, traditional atmosphere. But if you had to remember only one, it would undoubtedly be the village of Lindos, set on a promontory and overlooked by an acropolis dedicated to Athena Lindia. The jewel of the island, Lindos remains the classic, typical Greek village, car-free and timeless. From the centre of the village, you can reach the fortified castle as well as the acropolis. Turquoise waters, a sublime bay and rocky shores will complete your holiday snapshots.

Finally, fans of surfing and other thrill sports can choose a Hotel in Greece and head to the southern tip of Rhodes to admire the spot of Prasonisi, offering a wild, exceptional setting continually swept by the Meltemi wind.
