Lindos Royal

Nikos was my favourite, I love his service and smile

Not a 5 star hotel… more like 3. We booked a swim up deluxe room, the pool was not cleaned once during our 7 day holiday. Bugs in there, black on the bottom tiles. Chlorine is just chucked through a gap and not mixed in the pool. Room was lovely and spacious, apart from clear paint marks on the walls. The food buffet was much smaller than expected for the amount of people staying there. Mostly tinned fruits, some fresh apples and bananas. I could hardly say this restaurant caters to fussy eaters, unless you can happily live off a margarita pizza & chips for the entire holiday. Food was never hot, lukewarm warm at the most. Lots of people nearby said that they were disappointed with food. Beautiful location overlooking the beach, however, unless you’re willing to spend €30 a night due to travel, don’t bother. Nothing really near the hotel apart from the beach. To travel to the old town, it’s an hour away and €70. To Lindos it’s €15 there and €15 back. Beautiful restaurants in Lindos town if you visit there! Snack bar is open 12-5. Very minimal choice of food here. Cocktails come from a tap, not made fresh which is what you’d expect from an all inclusive. Just overall disappointing- sun loungers on swim up rooms are dirty, in need of a good clean. We went to the Al La Carte Restaurant, we were there for 46 minutes before they were rushing us out. They brought over desert and at the same time asked if we could pay the drinks bill. Very rushed. Not the experience you’d expect (but is beautiful overlooking the sea). You also have to pay for drinks at the Al La Carte restaurant. Gutting to find out how far away everything was from the hotel, the hotel says it’s close to Lindos town but it’s an hour walk (15 mins taxi). Hotel says that they have private mini beach access, not true, this was cornered off the entire holiday. You could go straight to the main beach (5 min walk) which was lovely. Very good entertainment on some nights from tribute. I wouldn’t mind if this place portrayed itself as 3/4 stars, but you pay 5* prices to stay here, you expect a 5* stay. Everyone has different experiences, and maybe it’s not as good because it’s not peak season. But I wouldn’t return here again.

Me and my partner stayed at the Lindos royal and was very disappointed with the hotel, we had a deluxe swim up room which was definitely not deluxe they take your bags to the room selling you the dream as reception is very luxurious when you walk in, it’s definitely not a 5 star hotel more like a 3, if you are looking for a luxury stay in Greece this isn’t the place to go, the breakfast every morning was cold, beans were always stone cold bacon was thin ham and it was always hot dog sausages sitting in water which one of mine was green when I picked it out. 1 toast machine for the entire restaurant, you’d make friends at the toast machine because of how long it took to queue for it. No coffee machine or tea you would have to flag down a waiter for them to get it for you, cocktails are from a machine and not mixed by the staff tasted not good as well, wasn’t able to drink the soft drinks as they were awful and had to buy cans of drinks in the supermarket on site, there is no air con until 1st June I went to complain about this and they couldn’t do anything it was boiling in the room in the night which meant you had to keep the door open on the balcony which just resulted in bugs coming in and waking up with mosquito bites. Our swim up room pool was never cleaned for our entire stay and was very dirty, they would only chuck chlorine through a gap in the wall which was never swept in which meant it just sat at the bottom of the pool, the pool was also freezing every day if your in the 3000 rooms you will not get sun all day either we had sun from 11-2 every day and then shaded for the rest for a deluxe swim up room I expected a lot more the sun beds were completely stained as well I had a dip in mine as well, all of them need fresh ones. The food in the evening was very basic if you’re a fussy eater the only thing is available is pizza and chips basically and a few salad options. For the amount of guests in the hotel the buffet was very small you’d find your self trying to cram your way in to get into the food as so many people were trying to fill there plates as well. Reception is stunning when you walk in but the rest of the hotel is dated and needs a lot of up keep. A la carte restaurant we tried the Greek one they bring every single starter to your table at once and you have to pay for the drinks in a la carte we felt very rushed as they had a sitting an hour later they brought dessert and asked us then to pay for the drinks. We ended up just going into the town most nights which is 15 euro in the taxi 30 for round trip. The views in the hotel are very nice but the way the hotel is really lets it down. Really consider going here before you book there are definitely nicer hotels in Rhodes and this is definitely not 5 star, I’ve stayed in multiple and this was the worst easily. For the amount of money I paid for this holiday it’s definitely not worth it at all.

Me and my partner have just had a week stay here and I can honestly say one of the nicest places I’ve ever stayed On arrival the reception was gorgeous and very clean the reception staff was lovely and really welcoming, they had a service to assist us to our room which was a lovely touch. We had arrived late at night (roughly 1am) and the restaurant downstairs had food prepared for late arrivals which was amazing after a long flight and transfers. The room was very spacious and clean we had booked a twin room with a balcony (one of the cheaper rooms) but we could not tell it was a cheaper option because it was still very nice the bed was really comfortable the air con was perfect, my boyfriends favourite part of the room was the small fridge it was extremely cold which is perfect after a hot day by the pool The food was gorgeous it can get repetitive but there is different options everyday (for example different styles of pizza or pasta but it’s still pasta and pizza if that makes sense) but I’ve learnt this can be common with all inclusive anyway The entertainment was really good the reps were really friendly, Lindos town is roughly a 5-10 minute drive away you can order a taxi from reception and they are really quick and clean, there are 3 shops within walking distance one being on site and one being at the front of the hotel a bus stop is outside the hotel, the beach is a few minutes walk away however this is a stone beach My only one complaint was the drinks weren’t that nice both me and my boyfriend didn’t like them so we ended up buying drinks from the shop but because everything else was amazing we didn’t mind, no one else seemed to mind the drinks so might have been just us Overall my stay was 10/10 I’m already thinking about when to go back I’ve been home a few days and miss everything about the hotel and the area it’s a perfect couple getaway for relaxing it’s a nice quiet area but not far from the town if you want a bit more liveliness highly recommend

Georgios was lovely and treated us very well, food was lovely, hotel was nice and quiet but had entertainment every night and the food was lovely…. We’ve had a really nice 7days ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
