Very nice hotel with a great quiet location with only a small walk to town. The staff are super friendly. I was a little disappointed the room didnt have coffee or tea facilities. The mattress's on the bed are due for a change. Overall a nice hotel, i would stay here again.

The perfect stay!
The hotel is in a fantastic location overlooking the sea and Albanian mountains in the distance. It is a ten minute walk from the hustle and bustle of the main strip so you have the best of both worlds as you aren’t distracted by noise or crowds at night but you aren’t too far away when you want to go for a drink, lunch, walk etc. The staff were all so friendly and lovely, happy to chat and help out in any way. The owners are such a lovely couple and couldn’t have done any more for us. One night the owner gave me some gel I could borrow to help soothe all of my mosquito bites, another night we sat and chatted with her about everything and anything. We had a fabulous trip and first time in Greece and would highly recommend this hotel to anyone!

A beautiful hotel with an excellent service. The room and comunal area were spotless, and the sea view room was fantastic. The staff were super nice and helpful. The pool area was so cheerful and relaxing and it was never crowded and sun beds always available. The location was so quiet and relaxing and the main strip is just around 15 minutes walk away. This place is value for money and highly recommended.

Lovely, clean hotel. Beds comfortable, shower and all bathroom facilities spot on. Pool area nice with really comfy sun beds. Staff are lovely people who were so helpful and friendly. Situation great also..10mins to the centre of Sidari with tavernas etc en route. If you turn the other way you are basically in the country with lovely walks. Absolutely perfect. If we travel to Sidari again, we would definitely stay here.

Week relaxing break
Enjoyable 7 days at the hotel. Staff were very nice and helpful lead by Eleni. Pool area was nice with lots of sun beds. We had a room on the third floor facing Sidari which enjoyed lovely views and sun sets. Breakfast was fine although we missed it a few times as ended at 10 am as we had been out late. It was about 10 minutes walk to some nice bars and restaurants and about 15 minutes walk into the main part of Sidari which was lively with lots of music bars and restaurants. Next door was the restaurant The Wave which was also very good. I would recommend the hotel for those that want a relaxing stay and don’t mind the short walk into town.

Basement room do not book like a prison cell
On arrival patio door broken so had to leave room un secured the tv and aircon remotes missing and only 1 chair provided on balcony in 2 person room. This was rectified until day 3 when chair removed! We did enquire about an upgrade but this was quoted at 190 euros in addition per night this is 3 star accommodation after all. The basement rooms are tiny and only cleaned 3 out of 6 night stay, bedding changed once but not pillow cases and towels only once when I asked. Positive the lovely girl on reception el Greco restaurant nearby is fabulous as well as fever bar. Owner of this bar got me a taxi to visit a nearby resort for 36 Euro return hotel quoted 115 for same journey so I rest my case.

Tasteless review, basement room compared to prison cell. Anybody could see by himself the pictures of these kind of room and be aware that the rooms are normally equipped. Anyway, sir, you booked a room at the rate of 26 € per night and then, here in the hotel, you asked for a suite, and of course price and services would have been better. We have everywhere (Expedia and Booking) an high level for cleaning service, so we can't understand your point of view, the room has been cleaned every day and the problem of aircon remotes was solved immediately. Regarding the chair on balcony, we only put one on each room as extra comfort. We told you about the price of 115 for the transfer to the hotwl from airport (round trip), not the price to visit a nearby village.

Awesome 3 star hotel
Wonderful hotel just outside main Sidari shopping/entertainment strip. Annie who is the hotel manager was superb and one of the main reasons we enjoyed the stay so much. She if the nicest and most helpful person we have ever had the pleasure of dealing with at any front desk and we have been to a lot of places/hotels. We enjoyed the fact the hotel was just outside main Sidari but very walkable which we did 2/3 times a day no problem. The swimming pool is amazingly clean and the atmosphere is calm. Rooms have everything you need to have a lovely holiday

Nice quiet hotel to relax and enjoy the peace
The two Staff that run the hotel Anne and Stephano were exemplary, they both couldn't do enough to make our stay perfect. The breakfast was excellent, the hotel is very clean, in a quiet area about 15 min walk into Sidari town. Take a travel kettle if you like to make tea or coffee as there is no facilities in the bedroom,

Clean, friendly and superb hotel
We had a lovely time at this hotel. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. Whenever we needed any assistance, even if it was just something for the children, they would help us out and accommodate us. We had a room tidied and cleaned every day and the breakfast each morning was lovely. The pool area was great for the children, with a small, kids pool as well as a large pool. Even the large pool was able to safely have small children in the shallow end. Generally, a really lovely hotel.

A calm haven
Sidari Beach Hotel is a lovely hotel that is sadly situated in a horrible town in Corfu. The hotel itself is almost faultless - the staff are perfection, the hotel modern and clean, the food really good quality and the location really great - i.e. away from the main town on a very quiet road overlooking the sea. The only issues with the hotel are that there is no beach directly in front and the beach in Sidari is worth giving a very wide berth. You need a car to get around from the hotel as it is 45 mins from Corfu town (or 2 hours on the bus) and 1 hour to the nearest, nicest beaches (Paleokastritsa, Kerasia). Also, wi-fi is only available in the reception area (not even in the dining room or outside deck) so you need to be prepared to switch off whilst you're there or sit with in reception (which is comfortable actually!) Rooms are furnished very well with comfy beds and pillows, half decent hairdryer, fridge, electric safe, plenty of wardrobe space, good shower and decent air con. I'd stay there again because it was a really classy place, but be prepared to venture outside Sidari everyday unless you just want to sit by the pool.

Complete luxury
Just returned from this hotel and the best thing about the holiday where the staff that ran the hotel and the hotel itself. It was a beach front hotel unlike any We have stayed at in Greece before. Beautifully furnished, massive comfortable bed and spotlessly clean throughout. Annie who ran the hotel and the other staff, worked tirelessly and nothing was any trouble. We would definitely return (providing the same staff where there) as they where so good. Sidari Town was not the best of places, tacky (sorry) is how we would phrase it however you did not need to go there as there were a couple of decent Taverners etc before you reached the strip.

Oasis in a desert of...
Just outstanding, a real gem of quality with layers of clean marble everywhere, exquisite decor and style reflective of the Italian owner. With its own swimming pool at the rear which can be a relief from any on-shore winds this place has all the facilities you need for self-contained detox - well it is a spa as well after all. BUT, with Ugly Betty (I love the TV show) behind the desk and Manuel from Fawlty Towers in the restaurant/bar the place descends into a mix of great satisfaction and sheer frustration as you can't connect to the WiFi or you find out you were trying to be sold a special that would cost more than the menu list price. On being told at check-in how peaceful the place is even when full yet we had to contend with overly loud and animated conversations between the staff. However, IF I were to find myself back in Sidari this would be the only place I would stay. The rest of Sidari boasts the cacophony of jumble shops and not-so-attractive bars you wouldn't normally find yourself looking into if there was anything else out there to see. Take your earplugs and a good overseas data connectivity bundle and you will find the peace and quiet you desire. Ugly Betty, Manuel and the owner will bend over backwards to attempt to give you a pleasant stay, I hope they succeed. They might even gift you with a one-off print by the owner's brother who did all the sculpture and hand-painted artwork, which adds a distinct layer of quality to the already superior decor.

Hotel situated by the sea
Situated in a very quiet area overlooking the sea. Shortest walk is about 15 minutes over a footbridge to the local village with many restaurants, bars and shops. Wonderful, quiet, small, extremely well kept hotel. Only complaint is why charge guests daily for a second coffee at breakfast??? We were told only 1 coffee otherwise it has to be added to the bill. This is the only hotel in the world we have experienced this ridiculous greedy attitude, and we have travelled a lot. Bacon, eggs at breakfast could be kept much hotter for guests. Fresh fruit salad, juices, yogurt, honey, cheese, breads, selection of delicious cakes also. Not everything on the dinner menu in stock, a small condensed menu would have been much handier instead of ordering and told more than once "sorry we do not have that". This also applied to the bar drinks and wine menu. We stayed their last week of the season but did not know this when we booked. Swimming pool and bar area so relaxing, and staff and owner very welcoming throughout our stay. We really enjoyed this hotel and would definitely return for a quiet break. No sign of local buses regularly and no timetable at a bus stop. We booked Lord Travel from and to airport and would recommend them. Very efficient, lovely coaches and a small office at the airport for when you land. Tours around Island booked from offices on the main street near the walkway entrance to main car park.

Exceptional Hotel, Staff, food and Location
My family and I stayed here in August this year and we all had a great time, the Hotel is kept immaculate, the rooms were spacious, modern and cleaned daily. Its a great boutique hotel, run by a lovely italian family, Jessica and Cici were great hosts, along with the staff Anne and Gian Luca, all of them made us feel like we were at home and part of the family, nothing was too much trouble. We ate in the restaurant a few times, where the food was really good, alittle pricey but good quality. Breakfast was also good. I found the location great, the sea was right outside the door with steps down into it, it was sandy with a few rocks and stays quite shallow, however it was great for snorkelling with the kids. The main town of Sidari is about a 5 - 10 minute walk and has the usual tavernas, bars, clubs and shops, good to wander around. We met some lovely people there and cant wait to go back next year, perhaps for a romantic week with the wife....

What a wonderful stay we had at Sidari Beach hotel. Sidari is a smaller quiter area of Corfu...but tours can be taken to different parts of the island...we took one to old Corfu town and Kassiopi both well and truly worth a look. We hired a motorbike 30 Euro for the day and toured the other side of the island too...lovely day. The hotel staff will literally do whatever they can for you to make your stay fabulous...we got a room upgrade with a seafront view and didn't even have to ask for that. Annie is simply amazing she is definitely the glue that makes this place run soooo well...beautiful happy smiley girl!

Fabulous hotel with good views, next to the sea
We booked this hotel after being let down by our holiday company with another hotel, so were anxious that we would have accommodation when we arrived. We needn't have been anxious at all. From the start to finish, this hotel was absolutely fabulous. The hotel has been refurbished in the last two years (2012) and decorated in an Italian style with the help and guidance of Teodosio Campanelli. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel is situated about 15 minutes walk from the main Sidari beach and tavernas and supermarket. There is a small beach with access to the sea immediately at the front of the hotel, which was great for a morning or evening swim. The hotel restaurant serves breakfast, lunch and evening meals. Breakfast was a simple buffet style. We had lunch a couple of times from the pool bar menu. A fairly basic toasted sandwich and salad menu, but the option is there to choose from the main restaraunt menu. We had one meal in the restaurant in the evening with a great vies of the sunset. The restaurant is more expensive than other local tavernas, but this is only to be expected. Our accommodation was a family room for four, which was actually two connected rooms. Air conditioning in both rooms included in the price unlike many other hotels in the area. Our room was equipped with a safe, fridge, balcony and large king size bed. The swimming pool is clean and pool area and bar with sun loungers. We had a relaxing stay and will return to this hotel.

ITALIAN CHIC HOTEL
I went with my daughter for a week's relaxing holiday. The hotel is very well decorated and new but it did lack atmosphere. There was a lovely pool but hardly anyone there and a lack of service on the pool bar. This is a family hotel owned by an Italian family whom are very polite and helpful but most of the work is left for Annie who does an excellent job, but i feel she was taken for granted. The food in the evening was very tasty and well presented but the breakfast could of been hotter. The hotel has a lovely location looking out to sea. The main part of the resort is just a 10 min walk over a little bridge where there are many restaurants and bars and a better beach. I would stay at this hotel again.

An excellent hotel, with a touch of Italian class!
We have just returned from a week long holiday staying at the Sidari Beach Hotel in Corfu. Yes, there is a Italian link with the hotel - from the modern décor and fine wine and dinner menu. I would gladly recommend this hotel.
