Official Description

Ideally built in a superb location on 6 hectares of green, on a hill right next to Kallithea beach and a stone's throw from the medieval city of Rhodes and Faliraki. Rhodes International Airport Diagoras is only 18.9 km, around 25 minutes by car. At the remodelled hotel, guests can enjoy the most authentic version of the famed Rhodian hospitality. It starts with the first bite of the Greek breakfast feast served in the restaurant, relaxing on the comfortable sunbeds by the main pool of 1,270 m2 and shaded by palm trees, or at the magical private beach, the delicious Greek and Mediterranean dishes on the restaurant menu, the healing facial and body treatments using products from the Greek land at the spa and the imaginative cocktails at the spectacularly designed bar with a panoramic view of the sea. Each one of the elegant rooms is an oasis of authentic hospitality with comfortable beds, remodelled bathrooms with tubs, an updated sitting area, and revamped balconies with a panoramic view of the sea or the lush, green gardens with the palm trees.

Kresten palace workers

30 Jun 2026
The workers at the reception desk were amazing except for Nena that was super rude and disrespectful. I have to say thanks to elenit and pamela and also the pizza guy that work in the reception desk too. They were amazing. Always smile at us , showed interest and were super super friendly and helpful, gave us the best food locations since we did not like the food at the hotel. Also george the groom was very nice to us and helped us with EVERYTHING we needed , always greeted us when he saw us, always asking how we feel and what we need or what we did today. The experience was so special because of these great workers! LOVE THEM 100% and wish they will get promoted and appreciated.

It s not a top hotel but it s ok.

30 Jun 2026
The hotel needs some renovations including the elevators. The food (we had breakfast) was decent, good but almost the same every day. Very friendly staff. A big hug and kisses especially for Niki (you are phenomenally cool)

Exceptional service that made my holiday better

30 Jun 2026
I had an amazing experience thanks to the incredible staff, specifically Michalis, Vicky, and Arta. From day one, they made me feel genuinely welcome and went above and beyond to ensure every visit was enjoyable and personalised. What impressed me most was how they remembered my orders every day without even having to ask. That personal touch made a huge difference and showed how much they care about their guests. Their friendliness, professionalism, and attention to detail were outstanding throughout my stay. Michalis, Vicky, and Arta are a real credit to the team. They created such a warm and enjoyable atmosphere that I looked forward to seeing them every day. Thank you all for your exceptional service, hospitality, and kindness. You truly made my holiday even more memorable.

Not a 4 Star Hotel!!!

30 Jun 2026
We arrived at this hotel late on June 15th after a long day of travel that started at 1:00 PM. We didn't check into the Kresten Palace until 11:30 PM. Despite booking a 7-day Half Board package—meaning we paid for our arrival day—the hotel did not leave any food or refreshments out for us. We were forced to walk down the street to a kiosk to buy water, where we were immediately ripped off, paying €2 for a 1.5-liter bottle. After that, we had to go to the hotel's cocktail bar and pay extra just for a frozen pizza. This hotel is definitely not 4-star quality. I have stayed at many hotels, and even 3-star properties are in much better condition. The simple truth is that this place desperately needs a renovation; it feels like walking back into 2005 rather than 2026. It has absolutely no visual appeal. The "Economy Room" we booked had relatively new furniture, but it lacked a true king-sized bed. Instead, it was two single mattresses pushed together, leaving a gap that separates you from your partner all night. Furthermore, the cleanliness was lacking—we found hair on the floor upon arrival. While the bathroom looked somewhat updated, the showerhead was rusting and had almost no water pressure, making showering a deeply unappealing experience. The air conditioning was another major issue. The unit was caked in dust when we arrived, and there is no temperature control; it either blows at full blast or you have to leave the balcony door open and let the hot air in. To top it off, the pillows are incredibly hard, and we woke up with neck pain every morning. This hotel feels more like a shelter than a 4-star resort. If you want to see what a proper resort looks like, look at the 5-star Kresten Royal next door—the difference is night and day. The food at the restaurant was frequently cold, unappealing, and disappointing. The atmosphere felt like a school canteen rather than a resort restaurant. Because the hotel operates on a Half Board basis, you have to pay extra for all drinks in the evening. However, I find it completely unacceptable that even basic table water is not provided for free with dinner at a 4-star establishment. Additionally, the hotel's beach is incredibly rocky and entirely unusable. We had to sneak over to the private beach at the Kresten Royal (which is fenced off) just to enjoy a beach that was actually nice and stone-free. Shame on TUI for selling this accommodation. I will strictly stick to Airbnb and Booking.com next time. The single positive thing I can say about this hotel is the staff. They are kind-hearted, always smiling, and incredibly helpful. Thumbs up to them, but the management and infrastructure let them down.

Perfect 7 day stay, exceptional staff

30 Jun 2026
Just returned from a lovely 7 day holiday in the Kresten Palace Hotel, Rhodes. Quiet location with easy access by bus to Rhodes Town. Hotel is in a quiet picturesque location overlooking a small beach. Pool area clean & well maintained. Restaurant is very well managed with a varied choice of food, exceptional staff, Rafall, Raquel & Judith made our stay special & also Erla who also gave service with a smile. The hotel staff really are the highlight & do all they can to make your stay comfortable. Would definitely recommend.
