SPIRIT OF THE KNIGHTS BOUTIQUE HOTEL

This is a charming place to stay, located in a quiet part of the old city with friendly helpful staff who gave us great recommendations about places to eat, and also what to do over the Orthodox Easter days. Extra thanks to Lena and Duncan for their help and suggestions! The hotel is actually a 500 year old building that was renovated over many years in consultation with the archaeological authorities in Greece, and has preserved many of its beautiful original features, such as the stonework and the gorgeous Ottoman era feature which is now the library area. There are new modern features but done in ways that complement the medieval features of the building. The room we had was spacious, with a separate bathroom and sitting area to the bedroom, all of which were kept very clean each day. There was a TV and wifi in there too. The furniture is also really tastefully chosen, much of it is antique wood. The garden is also a peaceful place to sit, and very nicely designed with the arrangement of plants around a very old big tree that will provide some shade on the hotter days. I was there in the spring and it was a bit chilly most days so only used the garden on the one sunny day! The breakfast is very tasty and freshly made each day with ripe fruits and yoghurt, fresh bread jams and honey on the menu as well as cooked breakfast options. It always left us happy and well fed for the day's adventures. I really recommend staying here if you want something a bit special and uniquely in tune with the medieval history of the city. The location is great, close to the heart of the old town but not on a noisy street, off a quiet side street (see photo). Tip: let them know in advance when you will arrive as only residents' cars can enter the old city without advanced permission. Transfers can be arranged with their help but give them a bit of time to arrange the permit for the driver. Enjoy your time there!

All 5 star+. A fantastic small boutique bed and breakfast. The tastefully re built and tastefully decorated hotel is tremendous. Both Elena and Duncan family hosts were extremely friendly and helpful as well as being very attentive, always read to make drinks. The breakfast choices is superb and the quality is even better. The courtyard garden is a lovely tranquil place to sit or lay and the small hydro pool is very relaxing. The room is serviced daily towels changed daily. We had the Ottoman suite fantastic comfortable bed. The hotel is within the old town and is surrounded by so many tiny atmospheric streets and squares. Would not hesitate to re book or recommend this fantastic hotel.

Visited this hotel when Duncan was the manager in the winter of 2016. This man was intoxicated at all times, he literally reeked of alcohol for all the 5 days we were there! Talked complete nonsense and made us feel very uncomfortable!

We were promised breakfast and all we got every morning was a bowlful of sour yogurt. No toast , no jam, no eggs no nothing! A total rip-off. Thoroughly disappointed with this hotel and all the misleading 5 star reviews which I suspect are being written by Drunkan himself!

Stunningly beautiful restoration! We could spend many days and nights in this gorgeous indoors and outdoors space. Far above any kind of 5 star hotel. The service is perfect and above anything one could expect, the breakfast is spectacular - freshest fruits and perfectly cooked omelette and good coffee! Perfect for a group of friends and family. Thank you for the experience!

Such a wonderful place! Really happy that we choose it to say in Rhodos! Thank you for the hospitality
