Asklipio Castle

What a fantastic hotel - the nicest 5 star I’ve stayed in. The hotel complex is huge - it really is a village. There’s 2 outdoor pools, loads of wide, comfy sunbeds (we never struggled to get one, even later on), 5 different restaurants, two shops, a spa, and a shuttle bus to take you all over the complex and down to the beach. Food was exceptional, drinks were excellent, and the staff were so helpful. The views are wonderful too and it’s so peaceful. Make sure you take a trip to the top of the complex to see the views from the chapel! A welcome drink was provided on arrival and there were sandwiches and water in the fridge in the room because we’d missed dinner on night 1. We were able to move this dinner to the last day instead and a courtesy room was also available to freshen up before our flight home. Two of the restaurants are included in the half board package - I’d recommend the Panaroma restaurant and an outside table for the stunning views. You get a voucher for the burger bar to use one night instead of the buffet. And you can pay to use the other two restaurants (you get 15% off on one evening). Hotel is ideally located for buses to Rhodes town centre, Faliraki, & Lindos. We also did a boat trip to Symi that we’d thoroughly recommend. My only suggestion for improvement would be serving wine by the glass. There are half bottles of the house wine (350ml) but all others are full bottles. I would thoroughly recommend this hotel & really hope we’ll be back

Lovely clean, modern hotel. Facilities are good and right on the beach. Friendly staff and lovely big rooms. Downsides are there are dogs in the hotel. We love dogs, but do i want to spend breakfasts sharing them with dogs on seats next to me barking? Not really in a 5* hotel…. Also the location isn’t brilliant. The hotel itself is lovely and luxury but the immediate area isn’t the same. We found ourselves renting a car and travelling to Lindos or old town most days. But it was a great base. Possibly over priced for the location I think.
