Apollon Hotel

A lovely hotel and the staff are fantastic. Yiannis on the pool bar was particularly good. He remembered my drink every time and was always happy to serve. Our housekeeper was amazing, unfortunately I can't remember her name, we were in room 204 she was our regular provider. Always had a smile and ready to help. Poppy on reception was also lovely. All in all a great stay. The beach was bit of a walk away but gorgeous.

Would definitely stay here again without a doubt. The hotel was immaculate, everything was so neatly placed and clean every day. Including our rooms, these were cleaned every day without fail, beds made, floors wiped and bins changed along with new towels every couple. The location was ideal. We walked everywhere without the need for a taxi, Kos town is only a 15 min walk or so with beaches or shops along the way to stop in. There was also a lovely beach where we watched the sunset at, this was left coming out from the hotel. The food at each meal time was different and always had a good variety of meats or sides, some things lacked in quality but overall was not bad at all for all inclusive. The drinks were also decent, different sodas along with beer and wine on tap, the only thing that was lacking was the fruit juice, it was more like water! There is no entertainment, but the evenings had a lovely vibe. The bar was open till late with music playing in the background, and everyone was sat around chatting whilst playing cards which had a really nice atmosphere. WiFi is accessible from the room, restaurant, pool and bar. The rooms were very spacious with a hair dryer, safe and plenty of storage space. The couple of downsides were that the ‘double beds’ were actually 2 single beds pushed together, so not the best when staying as a couple, but I understand why it’s done. Secondly, the shower drains were not the best. Greece is known for lack of drainage, but we had to stop-start the shower every few mins just so we didn’t flood the bathroom. The pool/sunbeds were nice, very clean however the water was very very cold (this may be due to visiting in October though) so we didn’t get much use out of it. It’s not too much of a manic rush for beds, but if you leave it anything past 9:30 you won’t get one, but there is adequate seating still in the sun by the bar. I must say though, if you don’t like cats, this isn’t the place for you. We had visitors at our room, maybe because we were on the ground floor, in the restaurant and by the pool, pretty much the whole complex. Something I certainly didn’t mind! We ate at the hotel all week, but decided to go out for a meal at the end of the week to a place called Istros which is a 5-10 min walk from the hotel towards kos town. Was a beautiful place and the food was absolutely amazing, definitely recommend a visit. Overall, I do not have many complaints. I would definitely recommend this hotel and will be returning.

Great staff, manager, dining staff, bar etc. except a weird womanish half bald guy on a night shift who don’t care about customers. we had to help explain everything to the newcomers (also as new guests) we took the elderly ladies to the hotel rooms, the guy from the reception would probably have left them on the stairs. He didn't even thank us and was rude. We had to change room after one day that’s why 4 stars on it. Everything with rooms were good. Clean. Hotel recommended

We absolutely loved this hotel, the staff was very friendly and we were super impressed by how many different languages every staff member could speak to accommodate every visitor. Cleaning staff did an immaculate job, the food was very nice and for teatime there was a different them every night. Lots of choice with lots of space indoors and outdoors to dine. Beautiful plants everywhere you look and you are a little bit sheltered from the road outside. Loved the fact that outside there were kittens and cats visiting at food times, which were so cute. The lady at the bar was a true gem, I think she's called Sofia, and she was the sweetest person ever. We were given free bike vouchers for one day so used these to visit Kos by bike, which was lovely. There are beaches all around this place from walks as little as 5 minutes. The only downfall is that the key card also does the electricity in the room, so when we took it with us, the fridge turned off and the milk we bought for brews wasn't good anymore. The aircon seemed to come on at 11am when we mostly weren't in the room but sadly not at nighttime when it was super hot. This hotel mainly had younger people there and there wasn't that much for families, no entertainment etc for kids and we had some trouble with extremely noisy neighbors one night. Overall would definitely recommend and go again.

Amazing hotel, we weren't sure what to expect, first of all the hotel is clean from the moment you enter and has a cool modern vibe, our room was a double terraced pool view room, which we weren't sure with it not stating it was a deluxe when booking if it would have the deck chairs out the front, but it did... Bonus!! As soon as we walked to our room we said Wow! It looked so beautiful walking up to it. you couldn't actually see the pool itself but it dose look onto the area and is a lovely Outlook onto the landscaping as well. Room was large with sofa and very clean. The cleaners did a great job every day. We spend days by the pool which was great, lots of sun beds ( could do with some more umbrellas for the back chairs) we are early risers and did usually go out about 8 am to the deck chairs, where there are lots of beds "reserved" with towels but the cleaner dose remove these so DON'T LEAVE YOUR TOWELS AS THEY WILL BE MOVED which I think is Brilliant for the guests who actually want to sit on the beds from early morning. breakfast was fine, dinner always had a good choice and you can always find somthing. we only had supper 2 nights as we like to go out on the evenings, but the food again was great always something to choose from. In the dining room we were always greeted by a lovely Gentleman, didn't catch his name but he was there everyday.. you were a lovely man who greeted us everyday with a smile and warm hello. Also the young mid lengh blonde lady on reception, I think your name was Aliona/Adiona you were a pleasure to meet and helped us on a few occasions with questions even though you haven't been here long yourself from Ukraine. Everyone.. all the staff were brilliant, can't state that enough, even the gardeners who work every day, Thank you for our stay. 25Min walk into Kos which is fine when not to hot, but bus stop is outside the cosmopolitan hotel next door which costs €1.20 each into Kos and takes no more than 5 minutes!! it dose run late at times though but hey ho. Taxi costs €8 from Kos to hotel. Bar lady is also fantastic what a star that woman is, made us laugh everyday. *my only negative points are - need a few more umbrellas and the soft drinks are not so good taste slightly watered down. Thank you again for an amazing holiday 😁
