Iberostar Kipriotis Panorama Hotel Reviews
" We stayed just down the road 2 years... "
Submitted By: Mr D DM
We stayed just down the road 2 years ago, this is a lovely area and nice island.
We went early in the season, one day of rain, otherwise perfect weather, evening just a bit chilly, but still good.
The Panoramas is 5* as far as the accommodation and cleanliness of the rooms and hotel grounds, and the rooms are big, the air conditioning does not work it is just a blower sometimes they do not switch it on to mid summer, service & food is 3-4*, the service is lacking and the food is average, good variety. The maids are very nice though.
The power went off 3 times and there was no not water for over 2 hours one night, not good if you what to bath the baby.
They do not cover the all inclusive that well, if you miss lunch the only food available is cake and biscuits at 4.00 to 5.00pm if you miss dinner there are mid night snacks, never found them. There is no information how it all works and where to go there are very few facilities for children, it mainly for 40+ and 90% of the people there were German at the time of our stay. Very pleasant people though. The pool areas have no steps in to them only ladders, the water is cold, so gradually getting used to the water is not an option, no good for children or 60+ either. No life guard. If you are a couple then this would be an enjoyable holiday.
Although I have highlighted some of the gaps, this is still a lovely place to stay, it just other hotels do the all inclusive and kids much better.
The good thing is that there are three other hotels on the complex, you can use any of those facilities including the restaurants.

" This hotel certainly has the 'wow'... "
Submitted By: Mrs L Hill
This hotel certainly has the 'wow' factor. It is like walking onto the set of Dynasty when your first walk in! (Which could have been as a result of the 2.5 hour transfer from the airport!) Still this is a small price to pay as the hotel is immaculately clean & plush, the rooms are massive, bathrooms are beautiful and well supplied with towels and bathrobes.
The pool area is superb, very quiet and you never have to fight for a sunbed or space. The restaurant is fabulous, never having to queue or wait for a table and the food is wonderful. It is great to go to a place where you can dress for dinner and not feel out of place! In fact you are more likely to feel out of place if you venture in your shorts and bikini top (horror!)
Entertainment is very subdued but perfect if you are looking for a quiet relaxing holiday, cocktails and a peaceful night sleep rather than karaoke and party til dawn! Not one lager lout in view! This is definitely the kind of place you go to for a bit of 'class'. Kos town is lovely, a bit more down to earth, day trips to Turkey and Rhodes are easy to book, quick and incredibly cheap.
All in all the best holiday ever and we will certainly be going back.

" This hotel is beautiful. My boyfriend... "
Submitted By: Binobo
This hotel is beautiful. My boyfriend and I were lucky enough to get a sea view room. The view across to Turkey was stunning and the room itself was, clean, spacious and of a very high standard. All the staff, were pleasant from the receptionists to the chamber maids, they all greeted us happily and with a smile. The three pools were well kept and also had stunning views across the bay. We stayed half board and we were really impressed with the food, not only did it taste good, there was lots of choice. The waiters were helpful and seemed to go of their way to make the eating experience a good one.
I would consider this hotel to be more suited to the older generation as there was not much to do at night, which suited us fine and meant that it was a quiet and peaceful place in the evening. Be warned, it is on a steep hill, so it could pose a problem to those with walking difficulties, although there is a mini bus that runs every 15 minutes taking guests up and down the hill. It seems the hotel caters more for the German market, than the British. There were a lot of Germans there and the TV stations were mostly German, which was a bit of a disappointment. But then you don’t go on holiday for the TV.
The beach was a long walk down the hill and a bit of a disappointment when we arrived because it is a shingle beach and not at all inviting. If you are looking for a 7 day break, to relax and rejuvenate you will certainly find this at the Iberostar Kipriotis Panorama.

" The Hotel is well worth it's star... "
Submitted By: Mr S Coe
The Hotel is well worth it's star rating. Very clean and spacious. The Hotel reception is something to behold. Food excellent and plenty of it. The only complaint is the lack of evening entertainment.
The Island is very interesting Zia is a good place to visit for goodies to take home. Paradise Beach was our favourite. The Greek people are friendly and mostly all speak English. Would certainly return to Kos and the Panorama Hotel is great.

" A beautiful hotel in a beautiful... "
Submitted By: Mrs T Jascourt
A beautiful hotel in a beautiful setting.
The lobby, poolside and accommodation were all incredibly spacious (and there was no need to dash to reserve a sun bed at dawn).
The restaurant was spotlessly clean, and the food served was of a very high standard, with vegetarian diets catered for.
Kos is a beautiful island, and worthy of spending a few days touring.
The hotel itself is quiet, but if you want to be entertained with an animation programme, you are at liberty to visit the other hotels on the complex, use their facilities, and take part in any activities they lay on. My children, aged 13 & 10, went to the Kos Bay View hotel next door on a few occasions to see the shows.
On the whole I would recommend the hotel to anyone, in spite of 2 problem days: the first was when one of the 2 pools was out of use due to filter break down. The communication to the guests was poor. The second was on the day when the hotel hosted a wedding. The needs of the holiday guests were secondary to those of the wedding party. We were made to feel unimportant, and many people were kept awake till 4 am by the music.
However, looking back, I can honestly say that I came home feeling like I had been living like royalty for a fortnight, in a plush and dignified establishment.

Submitted By: Not Specified
Brilliant Location, very nice hotel. We have a 9 month baby and the staff were great. There is a fridge in the room. The food buffet had loads to choose from especially as I am a vegetarian. Service was generally excellent there were 2 waiters in the dining room that were not very friendly. The Hotel itself is immaculate very clean. Views are beautiful. Make sure you go to Kos Town.

" Stayed at the above ,hotel first... "
Submitted By: Mrs V Stone
Stayed at the above ,hotel first impressions at the Iberostar Kipriotis Panorama , was wow , the hotel foyer a huge place polished marble gleaming, reception staff helpful , hotel room lovely with views overlooking Bodrum in turkey.
Restaurant, lovely with outside and inside eating, food excellent, with plenty of choice . Plenty of sun beds, free towels and bath robes.
There was 3 other hotels in the village you could have lunch or dinner to ring the changes, the hotel entertainment was geared more to the elegant in the panorama but, you could go and join in at all the other entertainment at the other hotels in the group no problem, all in the same area.
Kos town was only 5 minutes away on an excellent bus service , they have a pub street area ,clubs and discos .
I can recommend Kos it’s a lovely island , and the Kipriotis Panorama hotel is spot on.

Submitted By: Miss KM Wallace
We have just returned from Kos and had a fantastic holiday. The Iberostar Kipriotis Panorama was a friendly hotel, the staff were very attentative and we had a spacious apartment with superb sea views of Turkey. The breakfast and dinner offering was good and varied. I can recommend hiring a quad bike for a couple of days to tour the islands ancient ruins, mountain villages and beaches ... great fun !!!!!!

" Very welcoming hotel in a great... "
Submitted By: Miss L Dunn
Very welcoming hotel in a great location with fantastic views of surrounding resort. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing holiday close to Kos town. The meals were buffet style and were very good. I liked the restaurant as you never had to queue or wait for a table and the staff were very helpful. The hotel room we had was very modern and bright with a sea view, ( air con, hairdryer, fridge, tv, bath robes & beach towels). I had a great holiday & will be going back to the Iberostar Panorama Hotel soon. Its a must !

We had Junior Suite with amazing sea views and very spacious plenty of room for all 4 of us. Hotel was spotlessly clean. The entrance lobby and reception area was amazing and very grand. Everything is so shiny and clean! Food was superb with lots of choice and staff were very friendly. Plenty of space round the pool and towels provided.
Only downside was lack of entertainment but you can visit the sister hotels for your evening entertainment or, better still, journey into Kos Town at night for plenty to do. Will definitely return to this hotel in the future.
