Stayed 2 weeks in September. Pro’s very clean, the maid was exceptional and so hard working. Next to nice clean beach, have to pay for sunbeds though but I knew that before we came. People do reserve sun beds in garden the night before by putting mats on they hired from reception. Car hire man was brill, so friendly and gave us good price on car. Not able to get sunbed in day didn’t bother us because we went out. Gardens are nice, we sat in them at night rather than hotel, much quieter and more pleasant surroundings. Kids disco good if you have kids, other entertainment was virtually non existent first week except some Greek night, we gave up second week so not sure if it improved. Food was pretty average, ok nothing exciting. Had better at other all inclusive, waiters were good. Beer was ok, wine had better but what you expect from all inclusive. Cola is disgusting, just cheap syrup. Worst cocktails and gin and tonics etc. Glasses filled with as much ice as possible. Tonics poor, no fresh juice used cocktails or as a mixer, these come out of a pump and horrible and sickly. Not friendliest barman, got the impression we are just a number here is your drink now go. Opposite of car hire man who was ace. This experience has put us off all inclusive for the time been and will be self catering next time. Easting out in Greece is cheap and will get better food and drink. Kolyombia is a nice place good walk on the headland and along beach, few shops bars restaurants. Carousel is very good for an evening meal if you get bored of hotel food…

Hi, We had an all inclusive holiday for 7 nights here, 30 aug - 6 sept 2022. We left dissapointed due to multiple reasons. We are a family with 2 kids, if you're just a couple with no high expectations, maybe you should try it, but for a family with kids, you surely will at least a bit dissapointed. Pro: - 2 pools for kids: one simple with sunbeds near for parents and one with 4-5 slides - playground for kids - each evening, excepting on those with private events, a show is dedicated to kids with music, dance and competitions - 80% of the stuff is very nice Not okay: - at breakfast the water is missing you can only served it from inside, no bottle on the table, impossibile to simply refill your kid's water bottle - each morning they serve the same variety of food: eggs, bacon, croissants, pancakes, gem, salads - same if the food was obviously re-cooked - the pools - kids and adults - are closing at 17:00 each day - the cocktails are something spontaneously created, the sodas are with syrop, very bad tasting - for example: Coca-Cola - they don't serve the original one, it's something really owful tasting - with 2 kids, we had to re-call the stuff, 2 days on the road because the card wasn't functional anymore, we let them know about the problem and they didn't solved it right away, it tookf them 2 days to do that, therefore each time we wanted to enter in the room, we had to go to reception, expect someone to come for like 10 minutes each time - not cool - they serve you with a bottle of water each lunch and dinner, but they don't give you the chance to take that water with you - "it's not allowed", they say - after the kids show, one night, some adults were drunk and they started to just have a show for themselves, on the stage, using the microphone, an embarrasing one, we simply left to take a walk - the water in the shower was colder than the sea one in the early morning, only in the evening the water became a bit hotter…

Dear Mrs. Delia, we thank you for your review that clearly presents your opinion about the hotel and services but at the same time gives us the opportunity to answer and explain things that might be clear during your stay if you had asked the department managers. We thank you for the positive issues you mention, it is very important to know that the facilities for kids are covering needs of the family. We're enthusiastic that 80% of our staff was very nice. Next time, we kindly ask you to mention any misleading concerning the service and the effective approach of the Irene Palace staff. We have to make clear that the hotel had a private wedding in the family. It was announced with signs and information all over the departments some days ago for avoiding any customer inconvenience. The animation was properly done not outside as usually but in the inside located animation room besides the main bar of the hotel. Program was kept properly, not changed at all. The All Inclusive program has certain offers that are very clear to the tour operators and to the travel agents. Water is provided in the restaurant. All food and drinks offered in the restaurant have to be consumed inside only. This is a rule in the hotels worldwide. The hotel offers breakfast/ lunch / dinner / snacks / drinks up to 23.00 , enough for adults and kids. This is our obligation as per agreement. Imagine if 250 rooms take food / water out of the restaurant, the food and beverage department won't be able to control the food cost. Additionally, when guests take food in the rooms, they usually do not consume it. It is left all over the room, that is not proper and against hygiene rules. On the other hand for the same Hygiene rules it is not proper to refill bottles with water from dispensers in the restaurant for taking away. There is a mini market in the hotel, bottle of water costs 0,50-1,00euro. Breakfast is very rich as is mentioned in other reviews. There is a wide variety plus the Greek breakfast with local products and tastes. You have to choose a different breakfast for your family every morning. In any case we're thankful for suggestions that will improve the product. Food is not re-cooked. The hotel is completely full there is no remaining food at all. It is cooked on daily basis, fresh with local vegetables and fruits from local producers thus, the taste is very good, Mediterranean with local flavors. Pools are closing at 17.00. This is a decision taken from the clients' behavior observation as they start preparing for dinner. Lifeguard is attending up to 17.00. We close the pool and we suggest not to swim unattended. This is a matter of consciousness. It is written in the All Inclusive program that drinks are local but of high quality. We respect your personal opinion. The card malfunction is a problem that cause too much inconvenience to your family. We apologize, we feel very sorry. Technical support sometimes is not on time due to the lack of technical staff (all over Europe, the same problem). We're aware that a couple of clients drank more than proper and took initiative in the show. Animators should stop them, we apologize. We took care of the issue and we asked the travel agency to take measures, Water in the shower is warm the whole day, you may need to keep the water on for some time in order the warm to come, This is because we use sun panels and the warm water comes from the room in some minutes. But with 42-45 degree C, there is too much warm water. You're in Rhodes, the bright daughter of the God Sun. We thank you again for all your comments, we're looking forward to welcoming you again and to have the opportunity to help you more and to make your stay pleasant in all details. Have a warm winter, our greetings to your family and the kids.

We thank all the staff of Irene Palace Hotel, everyone was kind and helpful with us, really loving with our baby. The food was nice with a good variety for adults and children. The Hotel is suitable for families, with play ground and water park. We didn't miss mini disco, it was really fun. Outside the Hotel you can find restaurants, shops , a Luna Park, bus stop and car rentals. There is also one in the lobby. The beach reserved to hotel was nice, not too windy , a mixture of sand and stones.Even if you are a customer you need to pay for sunbeds and umbrellas. Water was clean and colorful. As mentioned before, the staff was good, hard working. The cleaning service came everyday to tide up and clean our room. It was was nice and recently renovated. Other parts of the hotel seemed older and sometimes you could find some details to fix and to improve. But di overall impression was really good! We are really grateful for the nice time we had. Rodhes is a wonderful Island I don't need mention it. We miss our vacation already, we hope to come back soon!…

Beautiful and spacious hotel with huge garden, very close to the sea. Rooms are clean and have really comfortable beds. Food is tasty (I loved wafles by Paris for breakfast and greek evenings) and you can choose from extensive food selection. Staff is polite and friendly - especially receptionists Nina and Antonis, bartenders Filominas and Panos, managers Vasilia and Filimonas and THE BEST waiters George and Maria in the outdoor part of the restaurant. The only drawback is slow wifi and not so good animations. I spent there 2 wonderful weeks and the hotel was like my second home - I'll definitely come back again.

Dear Guest, We only can say a big big TANK YOY for the review and to send you mentally a huge hug for feeling the Irene Palace Hotel as SECOND HOME. This is the AIM of hard work from the staff to the top management. We thank you for naming our colleagues, it is an honor to their efforts for hospitality and good service. Humans are creating their environment the way they are thinking (positive) and behaving. We're looking forward to welcoming you again home as Ulysses did in the Greek Mythology. Have a happy rest of summer and a warm winter, stay healthy

Food good but small menu of salads and drinks. Large queues for both lunch and dinner. Wine and beer are served by the staff. It is often necessary to wait a very very long time for a drink. A complete lack of sunbeds in the garden. On the hotel beach sunbeds for a fee. Among other things, there is no toilet on the beach - only toitoi! (mobile toilet at a 4* hotel, seriously). The hotel is not able to ensure the safety of its clients. We are sure that we always had a lock and yet we lost cash money from the luggage in the hotel room. Whether we should suspect the workers or the cleaning lady, we do not know, but the hotel staff did not want to deal with it at all. On the side, we learned that room thefts are common there! We are really very disappointed that even such a hotel can claim to have 4 stars! It is not true! Just one plus point: Nice evening programs for children.…

Dear Guest, We thank you for your review but we have to mention that it is offensive to the hotel in the way you report your experienc. Concerning the restaurant comments, we thank you about the food satisfaction. For the queues, we have to say that are for a few minutes only as it happens in general in every buffet. Beach is public, we are not allowed to make any construction (toilet building). We respect the law. There is charge for the sunbed on the beach because the hotel rents from the state the beach and pays a lot of money. But you can get a sunchair in the garden or in the pool area for free. We ensure the safety of our precious customers by keeping the norms that are adopted in a holiday trip. That is: safe deposit box in the room for the valuables and balcony and room door closed. The hotel has a very good reputation and you harm it the way you report it. Police is the official sector that takes over such kind of things. We're very sorry for your experience and we hope this is the last one. I'm sure, you can understand that the hotel has no responsibility for money or valuable left in the room as we offer the solution to protect them. We wish you all the best, a nice rest of the summer holiday and a warm winter.

If you don't speak german you are not at all on the same level as German speaking guests. Some of the staff were very unpleasant without a smile without kidness. We stayed in a superior room with a sea view. In which we heard evrything around from the cleaners to children's roar or laugher from the room that was 10 rooms from us. Well , evry day I stood in line for food like somewhere in a canteen. The hotel lacks a restaurant where local dishes are cooked and where a waiter serves you.

Dear Guest, We thank you for your review that gives us opportunity to answer to your comments. Germans are 12% of the total hotel capacity. Other languages may were not recognizable by you. About the staff, we inform you that comes from the nearest villages and other parts of the island, therefor, smile and hospitality attitudes are in their DNA. Concerning the food, the restaurant hosts 200 people inside and 150 people outside. In every buffet in every place all over the world there is a few minutes waiting. Though the hotel is in all inclusive basis, drinks are served by waitress during meals. But of course the client has to go to the buffet to choose the tastes he wants. Unfortunately there is no a la carte restaurant in the hotel but it is clear in the description. We wish you a happy rest of the summer

Luckily for us we spent first 10 days at 5 star resort Lindos Imperrial which was fabulous. We came here just for 4 days looking for change of scenery. What a mistake it was! This hotel is between 2.5 and 3 stars for facilities, service and food. Rooms have been renovated so they are very comfortable. Food is not good, poor quality, no variety and looks not fresh. Compare to 3 star resort in Cuba, Cuba is better! We ended up barely eating for breakfast and lunch and eating out for dinner which cost about 100 euro each night for family of 4. So we are very upset we paid money for all inclusive and didn’t even enjoy it. They are also charging for bottle water which I have never seen in all incisive before. Mojito cost 6 euro even if you are all inclusive. bar staff grumpy with huge line ups. Building and hallways is very old, filthy old green carpet. Pool is very old and very strict life guards who yell at everyone…. Overall, loved Rhodes and other hotel but this was horrible stay luckily only 4 days….perhaps this hotel was badly impacted by pandemic but I feel it should be advertised as 3 star until they improve. Picture is typical lunch menu.…
