Andreas Hotel

Can only concur with most of the other reviews here. This hotel is a real find - a total gem with exceptionally friendly service and packed with character! However, this hotel will not be to everyone's taste - it fully reflects the steep, cobbled character of the old town streets that surround it - so check the hotel's own website which gives a very accurate flavour of the place before booking (www.hotelandreas.com). We stayed for three nights in the same room (room 17) described in the October 2005 review below. The room is split level... more

This is a great place within the walls of the old city. The price could not have been better. There are wonderful views from the breakfast terrace. The owner and staff were friendly, warm and very helpful. The location was perfect among the winding lanes of the old town. Definitely check out the bar and restaurant BESARA down the street from the hotel. The owner was very friendly and the food and service were tops. Andreas is a great value and should be considered.

If you want a modern, full-sized hotel with all the amenities, this is not the place for you. But if you want a small, family-run inn with charm, history, and individuality this is the place for you. It is a twelve room, 500 year old Turkish house where every room is different and decorated in a Turkish style. We had a good-size room with twin beds downstairs and a double bed in the loft. The loft had a low ceiling (less than six feet) and was reachable by a steep stairway, but most rooms do not have lofts and are easily accessible. The... more

Wonderful stay after a long ferry trip from Crete and no room fixed for Rhodes' Old Town. "Sure" said Constance "We can put you up for a few days". There was a car to meet me (useful when carrying cameras, laptop and stuff up from the port) and a lucky cancellation got me a great room upgrade. All the rooms have distinctive touches (around a Lawrence Durrell theme - he lived and worked around the Old Town just after the war and Constance, the owner, is a great fan) and much care has gone into all the details and fittings... Best things?... more

I stayed for three weeks. The people were charming and friendly. The view is magnificent and the hotel is centrally located. Prces are right. You can't find a better place in the old walled city. Eleanor Clarke

Worst experience in Greece, the bathroom ceiling was too low to stand up. Because I had a confirmed reservation (sight unseen, of course), the innkeeper refused to move me to a better room. Moved the next day to Hotel Minos, lovely stayed three lovely days.

Hotel Andreas is one of those little converted pensions that is a little boutique place to stay and get away from it all. Constance was a wonderful host, and it was so comfortable and quiet there! We stayed for 3 nights while we island hopping during our early summer holiday. It has great views over the old town from the breakfast terrace and our balcony, and it just would not be right to not stay within the walls of the old Crusaders Castle! It's like night and day between the typical feel of the newer parts of Rhodes town. This is for... more

I stayed in the Hotel Andreas for 4 nights during my spring vacation. It is a small pension and was in the best location on a hill in the old town. The breakfast room had a great view of the old town and you could also see the Aegean Sea as well as Turkey. My room was big and clean. I had a room without a bathroom which was an adjustment for me. But I did have my own shower. When I go back again I will ask for a room with a bathroom. The breakfast was simple but very good. The owner and staff were great and very friendly. It is a... more

Hotel Andreas is a wonderful little pension in an attractive area of Old Town Rhodes. It has a pleasant courtyard with lemon and orange trees and beautiful views. Although it is not overly fancy, the hotel itself has an interesting history and is perfectly located. We loved our stay here and we would go back again!

This place is perfect if you are not a party animal, and you like to discover little jewels in your travels. You will not find any loud , drunken, package tourists here! Pension Andreas is a friendly place, which has an atmosphere of well-worn, unstuffy elegance. The staff is relaxed and kind, and my room "the penthouse" had a breathtaking view of the Old City. Though generally quiet, the old town teems with life, and you can feel like a local staying here. I loved walking back at night along the cobbled passageways that they call "streets"... more
