Family-friendly Hotels in Kos

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.

We stayed here one night at the end of a holiday in Kalymnos; to help with ferry and flight timings. Arrival was at check in time and the lobby was fairly empty. Our room had been prepaid and was a deluxe sea view. Sadly Neptune fell flat - I guess we’d been spoiled at the Kantouni Beach but this was neither sea view nor deluxe (check out their rooms if you want both these things and more). To be fair, you can just see the sea if you don’t mind the 10 foot pampus and other trees in the way. It was otherwise ok. The air con was set at 20, not far off what we heat our homes to in the UK. We wandered back up to reception and asked if we could have the room temperature lowered. The response was fairly brusque with the male receptionist telling us that was it 20 and would only ever be 20 and he kept repeating this. I asked for a fan. Not a huge ask in a ‘luxury 5 star hotel’ but it seemed to annoy. We left, unsure of what we would get. After a little exploring and sampling our (very welcome) ‘welcome drink’ we returned to our room to a note with a sesame biscuit. There was no fan and I was about to ring reception when my husband discovered the air con had been chilled down to 16c. A good result but why tell us it was set at 20 and could go no lower if that were not the case? You can request a lower temperature at reception, but it is on an individual basis. Dinner was in the Asian influenced restaurant and whilst it was all undercover, it was open to the elements so very warm and stuffy but he food was good, tasty and well presented but nothing out of the ordinary. With check out set for noon, we had some time by the adults only pool which was really nice. Returning to our room to shower and leave for the airport I realised the hairdryer was not working. It was fine for 10 seconds then seemed to stop. I called reception and advised them we were checking out at noon. They promised to send the electrician. He never materialised and I continued to dry my hair with 10 seconds on, 1 minute off hairdryer antics. I got there but it was painful. A couple of points to note, the shower - a sort of wet room - would not drain of water and the drains had that really awful smell. You do get used to it but it’s rather grim. The floor of the whole room was sticky and with damp towels on the floor after our shower it was clear it wasn’t clean when they went very black and grubby. Housekeeping take note. Wash the floor, don’t just swish the dirty water from one end to another. Upon checkout (same member of staff who was intent on a 20c air con standard) we were told the electrician had called but our ‘do not disturb’ sign was on our door. Not so, but I really couldn’t be bothered as I was never going to convince the staff member. Why didn’t he knock? Because he didn’t come. Overall, this is an ok resort, I wouldn’t want to stay here very long (or again). It was mostly German guests and did feel like a glorified Butlins. It cer

This is our second stay and we have had a wonderful time. The setting of the hotel and beach is great.Michalis the manager and his staff have looked after all our needs and it’s clear he cares about his guests experience and was regularly seen checking if all was well. Special mention goes to Alina responsible for the beach bar who always greeted us with a big smile each day and made guests happy especially those with young children. They are all a credit to the hotel and I wouldn’t hesitate to return again hopefully soon. Darran and Elena

What was Kos a surprisely fun island for a week and what had we a great weather in the last week of October. We have had many Greek islands and all have their own character, but Kos is certainly at the top 3. Hotel Atlantis is a good hotel for the price we paid for it. Rooms were dated and could be renovated, but everything was all and worked, we had a family room with his two, not very needed with his two, but now we had each a private clothes room and a third room where we were sleeping. All in clusive was great, for everyone enough of what you want.

We stayed here. There is 3 lovely pools. One is quiet and the other pool had nice fun music playing. Bar staff at pool friendly. One waitress was really bossy and complaining in her own language to the other Waitresses. Food was lovely good choice. The beach is tiny outside hotel. There is a beach future down the road but prepare to sink in the stones as it gets deep quickly. Lovely restaurants nearby hotel 10min walk and lots of cute shops with clothes and gorgeous paintings. Room in hotel lovely best sleep ever could not hear a sound. Beds great and comfortable. Room cleaned every day. Nice that we had tea/coffee available in room. Entertainment provided by the lead entertainer guy was very great. Really enjoyed the singers, the belly dancing. Music after was really good too pity the guests staying at poolside didn't make more of effort to have fun instead of glued to their own board games . Couple from Ireland.

A long rant but stick with me. A “5 Star” rip off. To start with the selection of buffet as they call it isn’t a selection it’s the same cold food every night. Even cold soup. The selection of food is so poor for a 5 star I would expect better at a 3 star even the breakfast was stone cold!!! As for drinks the orange juice was watered down so badly it wasn’t drinkable and tea and coffee were stone cold. Also summed it up when your sat with food bins around your table at your meal The bar that’s open till midnight shut at 10 :30 every night! We went here the first night thinking it was open for another two hours to be turned away and refused service as we were “ too late” this was at 9:50pm, we reported to management and nothing was done. This bar was also supposed to have people bringing drinks down to the beach throughout the day taking your orders, as for that a lie too. Be prepared to walk a mile and 60+ stairs Went to bed one night, the phone rang continuously throughout the night time after time. We rang down to the reception to be told it was a crossed line and nothing could be done! So some terrible nights sleep we had. We even had to u plug the phone as this was going off every 5-15 minutes To top it off we came back from a day at the pool to find our cleaner had left the door key in the door. Good job nothing was stolen !!!!!!! The girl at the top pool (can’t remember her name) with red hair, was SO lovely couldn’t fault her at all👏🏼👏🏼 As for the other staff didn’t want to help at all. The men at the bottom pool were SO RUDE and not welcoming at all when he asked where we were from in England he said he only liked “northerners” Just some highlights of our holiday..I could continue all night to be honest but we’d be here for a while. Would not return at all and definitely would not recommend

Kos Aktis Art Hotel is a reasonably priced hotel that provides an unparalled sea view and comfort with a really kind and helpful front desk staff like Sofia. Breakfast served in the open air dining room right by the edge of the sea is delectable with a variety of hot and cold options to choose from. And the hotel is within easy walking distance to all the major attractions like the old town as well as the ferry port. Stay at Kos Aktis was truly a pleasant experience.

Hotel was an excellent base for our holiday in Kos town. Hotel and rooms were super clean, excellent choices for breakfast and the staff were extremely helpful and polite. I was however sad to witness another guest be very rude to a young lady on the reception on our last morning there but the young lady receptionist was so polite and nice to the not so nice guest it was very impressive ( I will never understand why people will think that it is ok to be rude with people who are there to help you!) I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone wanting to be placed close to the marina and the Old Town for their holiday.

I spent four days at the The Kouros Palace and had a lovely stay. The staff were pleasant and helpful. The grounds were well kept and tidy. My room was spacious and clean. Nice large patio/balcony. The 2 pool areas were lovely. Although the pool water was freezing! I understand it is expensive to heat such large pools but if they could be warmed up a bit it would be a nicer experience for guests. The one pool plays load music all day so I was thankful the second pool didn't as it was a more relaxing vibe. The food was ok. I've been to several all inclusive resorts and the food was not the worst I've had but not the best. I really enjoyed the mussel and salads at dinner, pancakes and coffee in the mornings were good! It would be nice if they served real orange juice not a sugary orange coloured drink. I recommend the Kouros *****ni on the roof top bar! My room was spacious and clean. The bed was not comfortable. Too firm for my liking. The pillows were also lumpy and hard but staff quickly replaced them upon my request. That was much appreciated! Overall I had a very relaxing and enjoyable stay. Not to be harsh or too critical but I would just like to note this is not a Luxury hotel...The Savoy is a luxury hotel. I wasn't expecting it too be and in all fairness I believe I got good value for money for my stay. I would recommend this hotel.
