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'.
