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.

Nice hotel in a quiet area close to Kos Town. Our room was modern and clean, if a little on the small side (403). The ground floor terraces facing the pool don't have much privacy but we didn't use them so not an issue. Food was great all round, all inclusive bar menu was decent and the beer in the dining hall was nice. We also got a voucher for free bike hire which was valid for the day after arrival. Car park is relatively small but we managed to get a space each evening. The only real downside that comes to mind is that the hotel has no irons or boards at all, so bring your own if needed. There is bus stop around 50 metres from the hotel and reception has the timetable, you can get into Kos town for €1.50 each however the bus was significantly late both times we used it. After checkout, you can use the luggage rooms for your bags and the poolside shower to freshen up if needed. Overall a great hotel and would happily stay here again.
