The hotel is in a great spot. Rhodes town is a 15 minute bus ride away. The hotel is good. Nice pools and superb views. We had an Executive room on the 5th floor. King size comfortable bed and nice bathroom with a large shower. The hotel is let down badly by its food. If you like pasta and pizza you can’t go wrong. Their meat selection at both lunch and dinner was either pork or chicken. The soup was nearly cold every day. Their desserts were not brilliant except for the Vanilla slices which were exceptional. Overall we had a nice week but won’t return. It is, in my opinion, definitely a three star hotel.

This is my honest review! Stayed here from 16 June - 23 June 2026. Location – 5/5 I honestly can’t fault the location. The hotel is conveniently close to the airport and within easy reach of Rhodes Old Town, making it a great for exploring the island. There are plenty of restaurants, bars, shops, and supermarkets nearby, and the beach is right on the doorstep. The surrounding area feels safe and public transport links are easily accessible. Atmosphere – 3/5 The atmosphere was mixed. The hotel itself is busy and lively, particularly around the pool area, and there was entertainment available throughout the day and evening. However, it lacked the luxury and relaxing atmosphere I would expect from a five-star hotel. While some guests may enjoy the lively environment, I found it felt more like a standard holiday resort than a premium hotel experience. Rooms – 2/5 Unfortunately, the rooms were one of the biggest disappointments for me. They simply did not feel like five-star accommodation. The bathroom was extremely small and it only had a bath with a shower head. The floor became incredibly slippery after showering, which felt dangerous. Unlike most five-star hotels I’ve stayed in, there were no toiletries provided. The towels were surprisingly small, and the hairdryer was so weak that drying your hair took forever. The television offered very limited entertainment, with only one channel available to watch. The fridge struggled to keep drinks and snacks properly cold. The air conditioning was effective enough but incredibly loud, rumbling throughout the night and making it difficult to sleep. I also found the bedsheets quite rough and itchy, which further impacted comfort. Value for Money – 2/5 Considering I paid over £1,000 for this holiday, I do not feel the hotel offered good value for money. While the location is excellent, many aspects of the hotel fell well below what I would expect from a five-star. Had it been advertised as a three star hotel, my expectations would have been different, but for the price paid, I expected a significantly higher standard throughout. Cleanliness – 3/5 Overall cleanliness was acceptable, and the hotel appeared reasonably well maintained. However, on several occasions it seemed that the beds had simply been remade rather than the linens being changed. While the rooms were generally tidy, attention to detail could certainly be improved. Noise Levels – 2/5 The walls are very thin, meaning you can hear almost everything happening in the corridors and neighbouring rooms. Conversations, doors slamming, and people walking past were all clearly audible, particularly early in the morning and late at night. If you’re a light sleeper, this may be an issue. Service – 3/5 Service was inconsistent. Some members of staff were lovely, friendly, and helpful, while others came across as quite rude and uninterested. I also found communication difficult at times, as some staff members spoke very little English. While I completely understand that not everyone will speak fluent English, it can become problematic when guests are trying to ask questions, report issues, or seek assistance. That said, I cannot praise the entertainment team enough. Bob and Alex were absolutely fantastic throughout our stay and worked incredibly hard to keep guests engaged and entertained. The pool itself is good, although I found it uncomfortably cold on some days. My biggest concern was the marble surface surrounding it, which becomes extremely slippery when wet and feels like an accident waiting to happen. What was particularly disappointing was the lifeguard, who was frequently sitting on his phone rather than actively supervising the pool area. I personally witnessed people slipping on the marble and saw no response, which felt both unprofessional and concerning from a safety perspective. Amenities – 3/5 The hotel offers the basic amenities expected of a resort, including a swimming pool, entertainment programme, bar facilities, and beach access. However, many of the facilities felt average rather than exceptional. For a hotel claiming a five-star rating, I expected higher-quality amenities and more attention to guest comfort and convenience. Food & Drink – 1/5 This was by far the biggest issue for me. I wouldn’t consider myself a picky eater, but I genuinely struggled most days to find something enjoyable. Breakfast options felt very limited, typically consisting of eggs, sausage, beans, and pancakes, with little variation. Lunch and dinner appeared to cater predominantly to international palates rather than offering a wide variety of options that would appeal to all guests. While that’s understandable in a resort setting, I found the selection repetitive and often unappealing. The meat was frequently very chewy and sometimes not particularly hot when served. Most concerningly, I noticed mouldy fruit on multiple occasions, which is simply unacceptable in any hotel, let alone one advertised as five-star. The drink service was also frustrating. At breakfast, the only options were orange, apple, or pineapple juice, alongside water. All of the juices tasted extremely sweet and artificial. At lunch and dinner, guests must wait for a server to take drink orders, and on multiple occasions I was nearly finished eating before anyone approached my table. This was particularly frustrating when staff appeared to be standing chatting amongst themselves rather than attending to guests. Another frustration was the snack bar and the hotel’s all-inclusive offering. Several food and drink items at the snack bar were not actually included within the all-inclusive package and required an additional charge. While I understand that some hotels offer premium items at an extra cost, I felt this was not made particularly clear and was somewhat misleading. When booking an all-inclusive holiday, most guests reasonably expect food and drinks available within the hotel to be included unless clearly stated otherwise. Having to pay extra for certain items detracted from the overall experience and made the package feel less like a true all-inclusive holiday. Overall While Belair Beach Hotel benefits from an excellent location and a hardworking entertainment team, the overall experience fell far short of what I would expect from a five-star hotel. Between the disappointing food, dated and uncomfortable rooms, inconsistent service, safety concerns around the pool, and lack of value for money, I left feeling underwhelmed. Considering I paid over £2,000 for this holiday, I do not believe the hotel represents good value for money, and I certainly would not classify it as a five-star property. Unfortunately, I would not choose to stay here again.

My husband and I like this hotel, it’s a hotel of two halves as far as we are concerned. You have the very busy, noisy side (infinity pool, entertainment etc) then you have the older quieter pool which is where we are always found. As we are in our late seventies it’s perfect!! The food is good, we go half board as don’t enjoy the drinks on offer but you have your own fridge and can buy your own drink with free ice from the very helpful bar staff and a balcony room it’s really lovely. There is entertainment on at night but we don’t participate as not our scene but there other places around so again all good! Sadly we have since discovered this hotel has been dropped by TUI and Jet 2 for next year - have no idea why? So for us I will keep looking to see if either company reinstate Belair Beach or look for an alternative else where- Shame !!

Bob&Alex was the best entertainers Very good hotel
