This hotel is “Old Greek Style”. It is immaculately clean, lovely helpful staff, close to the town and for the price it’s good value for money. It has not been up dated or modernized since the 70s (still has rotary phone in room!) but having said that I was comfortable, good bed, water pressure, ac etc. If it’s just a place to sleep, shower and have a great continental breakfast (only 9euros!) this is the place for You. I had a nice time on Kos, I went to enjoy the island not sit around in a hotel so this was perfect for me.
This little hotel, only 15 minutes walk from the beach, is in a quiet neighbourhood. The hotel staff were kind, friendly and helpful, demonstrating that sense of Greek hospitality to be found in such lovely places!! Breakfast was a delicious and abundant assortment of fresh vegetables and the most wonderful cheeses and pastries!! The air conditioning worked brilliantly and the bed and pillows were especially delightful after a busy day of travelling!!
Had a great 2 night stay here before island hopping. It's a bit old fashioned in the roombut very clean, large comfy beds and a good shower with plenty of hot water. Soap, shampoo and shower gel and a hairdryer provided. In a quiet area but very central. Less than 15 mins walk to the port shops, restaurants and historic sights very close by. Breakfast simple but fresh and tasty and good coffee. I wouldn't pay 9 eur each but we got a deal when booking. I'd dtay again, friendly staff.
This property was fantastic...it was spotless,the rooms were big enough for 2 ppl never felt cramped....air conditioner was great...close to to the harbour and central of Kos town...breakfast was great a traditional continental breakfast with the beautiful greek yoghurt....
This is a lovely hotel. Perfect for a stop-over for the port or airport. The staff were welcoming & friendly, the bed was comfy & the room was clean, with a nice view from the small balcony. The breakfast was delicious. Great value for money, too. I would not hesitate to recommend this hotel.
A very clean town hotel, overlooking other hotel rooms as we had a room at the back (20) A good shower and comfy bed.
The staff were very friendly, at reception and at breakfast. The breakfast was plentiful. Definitely recommend. We only stayed 1 night, if were were there longer a room on the front would have been better.

The nightporter was not good, close the bar when he start work at midnight and you pic up the key by your self
I felt at home. The hotel was clean, had a traditional style with a calm atmosphere. The highlight was the location in the town of Kos. Staff were all so friendly, welcoming and glad to help. This was my first time in Kos, and this would be my first choice for accommodation for any future trips.

Economical hotel with extremely friendly staff, hotel is very dated and could use modernization. The shower is extremely small even for a normal sized person.
I had a fantastic stay at Phaethon, the facilities and staff were wonderful. Family friendly, clean, and quiet. Walking diatance from Kos town & bay. Thanks again to Mustafar, Lisbet, and Fay for your friendly and loving hospitality.

Small property, close to center of town. Older building, very clean, very safe. Two stories (levels) no elevator. Small basic rooms, firm mattresses, decent size bathrooms . Good for the price.

Hotel is in an excellent location close to restaurants, bars, shops, the old town and port. It’s a little dated and in need of some modernisation. Rooms are small and bathroom tiny but spotlessly clean and perfectly functional. Rooms are serviced every day with fresh towels and plenty of liquid soap and body wash provided. 24 hour reception with friendly helpful staff.
The 2 holland women are very kind and funny. The hotel is very near to old town port and city beach.
We went to astipalea for 2 days and they also kept our big luggages. Advisedddd!!!!
