Very nice treatment of 2 difficult boys

The hotel owner was very nice even though we were usually drunk and annoying, but he was able to shrug it off and made our stay very pleasant. Above a pub also which is handy.

Awesome hotel, close to everything, the beach, the supermarket, restaurants and take aways, ATMs. Great service by all the staff. A big thank you to Apostli and Poppy who always looked after us for breakfast, lunch, drinks , midnight snacks.

A place to remember

I have no words to say enough thanks to the lovely hotel's owner mr. Vasilis for upgrading our room.for the entire stay (10 days) We loved the views, the neighbourhood, the staff (not many, but efficient ) This place is literally in the middle of everything, from nice dinning spots to souvenir shops and just across there is a CARREFOUR. The beach is 2 minutes walk away from this perfect spot -RIO HOTEL. If somehow we will return to KOS i am sure that RIO HOTEL IS OUR NO.1 CHOICE. Alexandra& Gabriel (room #201)

Great hotel

Very simple, large room, recently refurbished. Clean, tidy, air con, balcony, fridge, safe, TV was a little small with limited channels, all staff were friendly, great location, not too noisy even though it's right in the centre of town. Maybe an extra couple of pillows would've been nice. Other than that it was perfect for what I wanted and being a regular visitor to Kos I would definitely recommend this hotel.

A great option in Kos

Quiet large studio with everything you need, comfortable bed. Despite of being very central in Kardamena, it is not noisy. Bus stop is 50 m away and many places to have food around. Some parking spaces are also available. Nice owners. Kardamena is ideal to visit the island and one of the best place to stay in Kos. Highly recommended.

Hotel posizionato sopra un pub di proprietà del titolare all'inizio della zona pedonale di Kardamena. Camere pulite e nuove. Il signor Vasilis è una persona fantastica sempre sorridente e disponibile Ci ha aspettato la notte del nostro arrivo. È sempre stato subito pronto a dare consigli e venirci incontro su tutto. Dopo il check out, ci ha permesso di lasciare le valigie e ci ha fatto fare la doccia prima di andare in aeroporto Avevamo il volo di rientro alle 22.30 ma c'era un allert per mal tempo a Milano e non sapevamo se l'aereo potesse arrivare a Kos. Prontamente ci ha trovato una stanza per l'eventuale emergenza nonostante l'hotel fosse pieno. Sicuramente un'esperienza bellissima in un hotel silenzioso e tranquillo, nonostante la posizione centrale, e con personale gentilissimo. Ci tornerò sicuramente. Grazie Vasilis

Ottima soluzione per soggiornare a Kos. Kardamena è una località molto comoda per gli spostamenti in tutta l'isola. L'hotel è accogliente, è pulito e la nostra camera (al primo piano, senza ascensore) era confortevole, grande a sufficienza e con un balcone. Forse il materasso era un po' troppo duro. Prezzo competitivo. Buone le pulizie e il servizio. Personale molto gentile.
