“This beachfront resort certainly aims to please families with its plentiful activities and large pool area. I noted the convenience of nearby transportation to Rhodes and the wellness center with distinct treatments stood out, although some may find the food quality inconsistent. The potential for both relaxation and exploration makes this a reasonable choice for a varied vacation.”

Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Kresten Palace Hotel generally makes a positive impression, with many guests highlighting the spacious rooms. The hotel boasts a large pool area, and direct access to a stoney beach, where hotel sunbeds are available. The convenient bus stop right outside the hotel facilitates easy and cheap access to Rhodes town and Kalithea springs; though some guests have commented that the bathrooms could use some updating. Gluten-free options are well catered for, especially at dinner with a dedicated 'gluten-free corner'.
