Hotels near Paradise Beach, Kos

Amazing hotel with exceptional service. Everything was very clean and breakfast was great too. All the staff were absolutely wonderful!

Location: ”The hotel has an excellent location, very close to the main tourist attractions and means of transport. The area is quiet and accessible.” **Chamber:** ”The room was spacious and well appointed. The bed was comfortable and the amenities were modern and functional.” **Cleaning:** ”The cleanliness was impeccable. The room and bathroom were very well maintained throughout our stay.” **Personal (Personal):** ”The staff were extremely friendly and willing to help. They provided us with useful information and made sure we had a pleasant experience

The location is very convinient and the personel were friendly, but the management was too strict. We got 4 bed room with our trip.com reservation for a family four, but they wanted to charge extra 30 euros, claiming that our 16 year old dauther cannot be considered as child, even though I showed them a confirmed reservation form trip.com for a 3 adult and 1 child (in trip.com page under 18 year old kids are considered as child). They said they would give a discount of 3 Euros out of 30 Euros, showing a sympathy! We accepted to pay 27 Euros not to waste our short vacation time. But, then, they charged 3 more Euros at the check out time, saying that is for the tax and they forgot about it! The two beds for our son and dauther were sofas, not comfortable. The airconditioners were not cooling enough. The room quality is not for a 4-star hotel, barely 3-star hotel.

Myself and my partner (18-30s) stayed here in early to mid October. The hotel wasn’t too busy at this time, which was perfect. The hotel is clean and well kept, and in a great location about 15 minutes walk from Kos Town, with lots of restaurants and bars along the beach and back streets on the walk to it. The staff are really nice, polite and helpful, big thanks to Kostas and the team. The pool is nice and the bar area is next to it, serving drinks all day and night. The bar has happy hour every day where drinks are 40% off which is really good value. The food is really nice and good quality also, including the breakfast, which has healthy options available. The menu is slightly limited though, we were bed and breakfast which was perfect but I wouldn’t go half board simply for that reason, although it is nice food! The hotel has entertainment on a couple of nights a week which is bingo, a singer and karaoke, which is really fun. The rooms are quite small but don’t let it put you off. If I was to return to Kos, i’d definitely look at staying here again and would recommend to anyone coming.

The price you pay is far from the service that one would expect form a 5-star hotel. 1. Rooms: Rooms are large and decently furnished but cleanliness is quite disappointing. Housekeeping was random at best, and they only cleaned on demand (for example, the bathroom or balcony were never cleaned unless we requested it explicitly). Rooms on the ground floor can be visited by stray cats if one leaves the door open. This is what happened to us. With my wife being allergic, we asked for an alternative arrangement which was promptly found. We were given a new room at an upper floor and with a better view. 2. Service: a. Beach service was horrible. First, like rooms’, beach cleanliness is a mirage. Stray dogs are around all the time and the beach is always dirty (see pictures of what the beach looks like at 9am on a typical day). The beach is also adjacent to a drain with stagnant water, which on a typical windy day sometimes smells. Second, almost none of the staff speak a decent English. Finally, the beach is open to outsiders. While nowhere was this written when I made the reservation, the end result is that, particularly during weekends, you may find yourself without an umbrella and beds. That is exactly what happened to us when we checked in on a Sunday afternoon. Moreover, barely are there controls at entry, so in theory anyone can (and in fact does) use the beach. b. Dining was also quite poor. The hotel has four restaurants but only two are open for dinner. This leaves us with fewer options. Yes, the nearby village offers alternatives, but it is not clear why a 5-star hotel should only have two restaurants open for dinner (note: one is a beach restaurant). c. On a positive note, staff were very helpful, especially Elena, the guest relations manager, who was very kind with us and tried her best to improve the service, yet there are structural problems that only the general management can and should try to solve. Speaking of which, we lodged a complaint with central Radisson and no one bothered to reply, not even an automatic reply acknowledging receipt of the message. As the saying goes: “the fish rots from the head”. 3. Location: This is definitely a plus. The hotel is located in a beautiful bay, with crystalline waters. However, the place is a bit self-containing, with very limited options to walk and dine around, and explore adjacent places. There is a no-frills village at walking distance but you can only reach it by taxi, as it is not advisable to walk on the margins of the road. In sum, if you are looking for a truly 5-star hotel experience look elsewhere.
