Please be warned about booking what seemed to me anyway, to be a brand new (already built!!) hotel. I had even corresponded with the spa manager who claimed to not know the building wasn’t complete ? I was booked from 1st-8th June and was not informed by the hotel or travel agent! I found out from now deleted Google reviews. To make things worse on the beach have been a nightmare finding me alternative accommodation stating this hotel was not advertised as adults only so they won’t match like for like. I’m a solo traveller specifically booked for adults only. They tried to offer me family resorts with water parks! This hotel is on all big travel agent websites along with booking.com etc and I had looked at a huge amount of hotels before booking! I’ve been so stressed trying to sort something else (got a refund in the end and booked elsewhere and sent a complaint to on the beach!) The travel agents are mis selling package holidays with this hotel and not making clear that all the photos are digital / artist impression (ie fake!!) there’s specific legislation that covers this for UK As for the hotel. They’re just as bad! Instagram posts stating they’re just getting the finishing touches ready! You’ll notice they’ve turned the comments off on social media… How people can be so dishonest is beyond me but I hope people will see this and avoid booking before it’s actually built as I don’t know how it is even allowed! Need to book another holiday to get over the stress of this one!

Let yourself be enchanted by romantic sunsets as well as relaxing walks along the center of Ixia with various shops and restaurants.

The stunning medieval Old Town has been declared as World Heritage Site and is waiting to get discovered by you.
Just back from a perfect vacation (May 31 to June 7, room 801) in the Atrium Platinum. Perfect place to have a relaxed, carefree vacation, hygiene is of paramount importance with respect to COVID restrictions. Everyone is very helpful at all levels, swimming pool area, sunbeds are cleaned early in the morning ( reserving lounge chairs is not necessary, plenty available). Food experiences are of very good quality meaning, not only the buffet is excellent but there is a possibility to eat special dishes on a daily base, recommended, high quality level (see pictures) Special thanks to mister Magafas, reservations & Front Office Manager, Jonida , Panos, Stella and many many more, they created a 5* stars hotel. Well deserved Are we going back oh yeah

The quality renowned Atrium Palace Thalasso Spa Resort & Villas is the ideal destination for marvelous vacations and relaxing holidays. This architecturally innovative hotel combines luxury with its delightful blend of Greek Classical styles and ambiance meters from the crystal clear beach. The hotel is situated in the tranquil bay of Kalathos, close to the picturesque village of Lindos, on the Southeast area of Rhodes Island. Its unique beauties of nature and cultural heritage characterize it as the most intriguing region of the island.
This is our first time visiting Rhodes and we really wanted it to be a special, memorable experience as so many holiday makers would after a couple of years being unable to go abroad. We do use Trip Advisor as a guide when booking holidays and hotels, this occasion was no exception. Atrium Palace already has almost 5000, 5 star reviews - almost too good to be true but ratings like that, shouldn't dismissed and we're so glad we bit the bullet and booked our holiday here. This is another 5 star review and also the first I've ever written for a holiday. The hotel complex is stunning. The buildings are immaculate. Grandeur is definitely the vibe they are going for and they have completely nailed it. The grounds are beautiful - so much greener than we expected. A tremendous selection of trees, shrubs and flowers are planted in every available space and add to the the wow factor of the complex. Both the buildings and grounds are cared for to the highest standards. Staff are continually, yet unobtrusively, going about their business making sure the surroundings are kept in pristine condition. The food is wonderful too - there are several restaurants on site to choose from. The main restaurant is buffet style but the selection of food ensures that there is something for everyone. The quality of the food is exceptional and as you would expect, the fresh fruit and vegetables are full of flavour - I'm sure that has something to do with the 300 days of sunshine Rhodes is gifted with each year. We have a garden view room (439) which also, and was a surprise to us, has a small pool just outside the patio doors. This is not a swim up room, which are also available, therefore was completely unexpected so another little bonus for us. Our room has been kept immaculate throughout our stay - the house keepers work tirelessly and always greet guests with a smile. It is so hard to pick out individual staff, there are so many who have made our stay special and all the more enjoyable however, the few who we seem to touch base with most days and have been particularly attentive and welcoming are Rena, Mariana and Francesca.... no doubt, by the end of our stay, we'll have learned a few more names and need to add to our list and edit the review. Of course, there are so many behind the scenes, the chefs and groundsmen & women who we can't name unfortunately but their contribution to the overall impact of this hotel's stature cannot be overlooked. This truly exceptional facility would not receive such ratings if the entire team were not working so hard behind the scenes and ensuring the high standards are maintained across the board. I'm sure the management are already aware of this but hope this review reinforces that fact. Thank you to all the staff and management - we will be back to finish our site seeing of the island because one week, simply isn't enough.

Two weeks ago we came back from the holiday spending 10 wonderful days in Mitsis Grand hotel. The hotel and especially the en-suite are a little bit dated, the indoor swimming pool unfortunately closed and both outdoor pools very cold. Bearing in mind last 2 Covid 19 years, extremely difficult for the tourist industry, the hotel is trying to do the best to compensate all this by an exceptional cleanness, excellent customer service and great entertainment and food. NEFELI at the concierge desk was our angel sorting out ALL our problems and answering questions as soon as we had one. ELENA in the Greek restaurant was so quick serving us, she was almost flying! And all the time with a smile on her face. In fact it’s very difficult to mention everyone helping at the hotel as everybody was very kind and always ready to help. The food was very tasty especially in the Greek and Italian restaurants. The room was spacious with a nice size balcony overlooking the garden. As the sea side was very windy we’ve done the right choice booking the garden facing one. And finely: During our stay my husband celebrated his birthday. We didn’t mention this while checking in so it was a very pleasant surprise for him to receive that day an email and card with birthday wishes from the hotel and a birthday cake (very tasty!) with a bottle of Prosecco in our room! Overall our stay was extremely pleasant and we would strongly recommend this hotel.

This was our first visit to this hotel, booked via Tui, and no airport problems. Everything was simply perfect. Upon arrival by car, this took 1 hour 10 going, and 1 hour 30 returning, same route but different driving speed. We then arrived to the wow factor reception, a glass of bubbles and a fantastic welcome. We were then taken by golf buggy to our room by the most helpful young men. The view from our room was just unbelievable! stunning :-) We chose a sea view private pool room which was just fantastic. After the last couple of horrendous years, my husband and I really just needed to have time out and relax and we got just that. Although the main pool wasn't busy so anyone choosing that you wouldn't have any trouble getting a sun lounger at any time of the day. I wasn't a fan of the beach, it is pretty stony, but again plenty of sunbeds and so peaceful on there. In fact the whole resort is just peace and quiet. It is not adults only, and I would say only suitable for babies and toddlers, older children would be bored. The food is great in every restaurant. I am not a fan of buffets, I prefer to sit and choose from a menu and there was plenty of option throughout the resort for this. The grounds of the hotel are very well kept and lovely to walk around. The hotel is spotless, the staff cannot do enough for you, and Katrina, just wow! I stupidly left a dress behind in the wardrobe and the same day she so kindly had it sent to the UK for me! The weather was perfect, both day and night, exactly how we had hoped. If I were to give one negative I would say after breakfast it would be good to be able to sit at the pool or main bar and have a drink but they don't open until 11am. 10am would have been great. The hotel is very remote, so this is for anyone who likes to 'fly and flop' as we do. Rhodes town was too far for us to travel to, same as Lindos especially as we were only there for 1 week. But we were very happy to relax around the fabulous private pool and admire the stunning view all day. We will without any hesitation return, it was the best holiday we have ever had. To anyone who is about to go there, you are very lucky! :-)

This place was simply heaven on earth. Our room was a bungalow family room, with views of the gardens and sea. Comfortable and clean, excellent cleaning services. There were so many beautiful pools but we stayed at the amazing beach on a daily basis. Being brought drinks really helped! The food here is fantastic, so many little places to eat to choose from. The Gyros place for lunch was a winner on a daily basis. Definitely book into all the restaurants, they are brilliant. The drinks choice was extensive and the waiting staff super friendly. There's lots of walking and a brilliant gym. I'd go back here in a heartbeat, especially on my own ?
