Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The hotel was very central to the town and beach, with everything easily walkable. Staff were always friendly and helpful, even before my trip when they offered assurances that all was fine in the local area due to wildfires elsewhere on the island that had impacted other trips around the time mine was taking place. This was really helpful! Room itself was good value for money with what you would expect with what you pay. Breakfast wasn't great, not many hot veggie options but there were other places locally so this wasn't a massive bother. Ideal for a solo trip, will return when I come back to Rhodes

The Africa Hotel was a great little hotel. It's not fancy, and I prefer it that way. It was basic, comfortable and clean. It was steps away from the ocean but a longer walk to the Old Town. The staff was great and friendly, and the breakfast was very good. The only quibble I have is that of the five nights I stayed there, I was woken up four mornings by the maid service. The only time that didn't happen was the day I had to leave at 7:30 to catch a ferry. It was my holiday, and I just wanted to rest. An easy fix would be if they just provided "Do Not Disturb" signs you could hang on the doors. I would certainly stay here again, though, and I intend to. I will go back to Rhodes.

I really enjoyed my stay at the African hotel. The staff was outstanding for my son and I. It's centrally located to everything that my son and I wanted to do. It's walking distance from Old Town&a block away from the beaches. I highly recommend staying at the African hotel.

Kelpo hotelli ja kaikki perusasiat ovat kunnossa
Voin sanoa tämän olevan paras kahden tähden hotelli, jossa olen vieraillut. Henkilökunta oli hyvin kohtelias ja vastaanotto miellyttävä. Asiat hoituivat sujuvasti ja mutkattomasti. Siivous oli vierailun ajan täydellistä. Ilmastointi oli toimiva ja odotetunlainen. Parannettavaksi voisi mainita hotellin suihkusaippuan, joka taisi olla vedellä lantrattua. Kylpyhuone oli siisti ja muuten kunnossa. Aamiainen on kahden tähden odotuksille kelpo. Suosittelen nauttimaan katutason terassilla. Alakerran kerros on hieman ankea. Muistat vain palauttaa astiat alas tiskille. Jos budjetilla olet liikkeellä ja haluat kohtuulliset oltavat lomallesi, niin tämä on hyvä valinta. Baarikatu on aivan vieressä, mutta sieltä ei kantaudu häiriötä ollenkaan hotellille. Hyvien liikenneyhteyksien varrella.

Hyvä hinta-laatusuhde!
Hinta-laatusuhteeltaan loistava hotelli. Henkilökunta todella, todella ystävällistä ja saimme sydämellistä palvelua. Sijainti loistava, huone iso sekä mukava ja ylitti odotukset. Paljon kaappitilaa, mikä oli plussaa. Huoneen ilmastointi toimi myös erittäin hyvin. Parvekkeelta ihanat näkymät merelle ja auringonlaskuun. Risuja tulee siivouksesta, yleisten tilojen ilmastoinnin puutteesta sekä aamupalasta. Hotellin siivoojat ystävällisiä, mutta huone oli harvoin kunnolla siivottu eikä lattioita lakaistu/pesty. Aulassa, baarissa, aamupalahuoneessa ja yleisessä vessassa oli erittäin kuuma, mikä on ymmärrettävää kuuman heinäkuun aikaan mutta ilmastoinnin puute vaikuttaa viihtyvyyteen merkittävästi (varsinkin aamupalalla). Aamupala ei meidän mielestä ollut erityisen hyvä tai kattava, mutta perus leipätarpeet, munakasta ja kahvia löytyi. Tosin plussaa vielä siitä, että aamupalalla kasvikset olivat tuoreita ja hyviä. Kaiken kaikkiaan hinta-laatusuhteeltaan erittäin hyvä hotellivalinta!

Dear Riikka,Thank you very much for your review and we are glad that you enjoyed staying with us! We wish you could have told us the issue regarding the housekeeping, so we could resolve is straight away and check what was happening. The cleaning ladies have instructions to properly clean and disinfect all the rooms daily, so this was an issue we had to investigate.As for the breakfast, we would appreciate if you could give us few ideas of what else we could offer. For now we offer (in a rotation) 5 different types of bread, cheese, feta, ham, turkey, salami, fresh fruit & vegetables, yogurt, custards, eggs, omelets, sausages, bacon, mushrooms, beans, cakes, cookies, jam-tarts, tinned peach & pineapple, dates, olives, rice pudding, jelly, etc. Any suggestion would be very helpful!Once again, Thank your for visiting us and we hope you enjoyed your holidays in Rhodes!Kind regards,Margaret

Oikein kelpo majoituspaikka
Ihan kelpo majoituspaikka. Henkilökunta ystävällistä, aamupala ihan perushyvä, huoneemme oli mukava ja ilmalämpöpumppukin löytyi. Hyvä sijainti, merenranta ihan vieressä ja monet paikat ihan käveltävän matkan päässä. Ainoa pieni miinus oli että huoneemme sängyt oli aika kovat mutta hyvin meni viikon majoitukseen.

Good value for the money!
Really nice small hotel, good value for the money! We got smiling and helpful service from the personnel during our stay. Our standard room was comfort and clean, also nice bathroom. Air condition was working and fine. Fairly good breakfast was pleasant surprise. One negative side is that all the noise from the corridor was easy to hear to our room. That didn’t bother us too much though. If you are looking for good & basic hotel, Africa is a good choice.

Perus, hyvä hotelli, jossa kaikki tarpeellinen. Uima-allasta ei ollut, mutta ilmastointi löytyi ja meri 50m päässä. Huonemaisema, ainakin huoneesta 402, upea. Hlö-kunta hymyilevää ja lämmintä. Perheyritys? Aamiaisen paistetut munat lillui ihmeellisessä nesteessä, mutta maku hyvä.

Ottimo per la posizione e la pulizia
Hotel che si trova in ottima posizione, a 5-7 minuti a piedi dalla città vecchia di Rodi, 1 minuto a piedi dalla via piena di locali, accanto a farmacia, super market, rent car e spiaggia. Unica nota molto dolente, la colazione! terribile direi, è vero che è un due stelle, ma non si ha proprio cosa mangiare, la colazione è tutto tranne che continentale, abbiamo mangiato yogurt e una fetta di pane per una settimana, caffè imbevibile, succhi annacquati, fatti probabilmente con le bustine, frutta per niente saporita, insomma direi da migliorare! L'hotel comunque è molto pulito e il personale molto cortese e gentile nel dare indicazioni o mettersi a disposizione!

Wir hatte in der dritten Juiliwoche einen tollen Aufenthalt im Hotel Africa, das wir als Stüützpunkt für Ausflüg mit dem Mietwagen auf die ganze Insel nutzten. Das Frühstück war reichhaltig und gut. Aufgrund der Nähe zu Altstadt, Strand und Partyzone ist die Umgebung des Hotels 24 Stunden lang lebhaft und laut. Auch im Hotel sind viele junge Partypeople eingecheckt. Das gratis Wlan ist flott.

Dejlig stor fæles terrasse med kik til havet
Vores andet "stay" på Africa. Dejlig stor fæles terrasse med kik til havet. God morgenbuffet. Meget imødekommende personale. Små værelser. Men til en pris hvor alle kan være med. Og frem for alt en god beliggenhed i gå afstand til den gamle by og til traveture langs kysten og ind over land.
