I had a wonderful stay at the Semiramis City Hotel. The location is ideal—situated in a quieter part of town but just a short, easy walk to both the beach and the vibrant center of Rhodes Town, including the historic Old Town.

The rooms are modern, spotlessly clean, and very comfortable, with great air conditioning and a lovely balcony view. The breakfast buffet offered a fantastic variety of fresh, delicious options to start the day. What really sets this hotel apart, though, is the staff. Everyone from the front desk to the dining area was incredibly welcoming, polite, and always ready to help with local recommendations. The pool area is also a great, relaxing spot to unwind after a day of exploring. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Rhodes!

I stayed one night at this hotel during a business trip to Rhodes, and it was genuinely one of the worst hotel experiences I have had across many years of travel. I've seen hostels provide better quality of service for a fraction of the cost.

The infrastructure is completely inadequate for the size of the property. Two tiny elevators that barely fit one person and their luggage mean that during breakfast hours you can easily waste 10 minutes just waiting to get to your floor. This is unacceptable in any hotel, let alone one charging €130 per night.

The biggest issue, however, was the heat. I arrived to a boiling room and discovered that the AC unit has a centrally imposed lower limit of 24°C  any attempt to go below that is met with a "Hard Lock" message. To make matters worse, the unit was visibly dirty and completely underperforming, meaning the room never even reached that already-inadequate temperature. I contacted reception, who were polite and did try to help by adjusting the temperature remotely, but after multiple attempts they failed. Their solution was to bring me a fan, a fan, for €130 a night in the middle of summer.

The complete absence of air conditioning in any communal area corridors, reception, everywhere makes it abundantly clear that this hotel is deliberately cutting costs at the direct expense of guest comfort. I spent the entire night sweating and unable to sleep properly, which is simply not something that should happen at this price point.

The room and bathroom were also extremely cramped. I cannot imagine enduring more than one night here, and I would have changed hotels entirely had I not arrived so late.

To my surprise, the breakfast was rather good and had a variety of options.

Avoid this hotel if comfort and value for money matter to you.

Our stay at Semiramis City Hotel was a mixed experience.

Unfortunately, on our first night we found a cockroach in our room (see attached photo), which was very disappointing. The bathroom also had an issue where water leaked onto the floor every time we took a shower, and the door handle was awkward and difficult to use.

In addition, during the last three nights of our stay, we had to call the reception every evening because of extremely noisy guests in nearby rooms. While the staff responded each time, it significantly affected our sleep and overall experience.

On the positive side, the breakfast was very good, with a nice variety of fresh food, and all the staff were friendly and helpful. After we reported the issues with our first room, they offered us a different room on the 4th floor the following day, which we appreciated.

Overall, the hotel has some strong points, especially the breakfast and the kindness of the staff, but the cleanliness, maintenance, and noise control need significant improvement.

Good hotel in a great central location, with plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. The beach promenade is within walking distance, and the area felt safe during my stay.

The room was clean and comfortable, but both the room and bathroom felt a bit dated and need some renovation. Overall, a pleasant stay, especially for a short business trip.

After more than 40 years, I stayed at this hotel again.
Thankfully, the area is still very quiet.
Nevertheless, the beach, public transport, shops, the Acropolis, restaurants, and the old town are all easily accessible on foot. The rooms are clean, the breakfast is adequate, and the staff is friendly and helpful.
