Megisti Hotel  

it was a well run, modern hotel with helpful staff. Great location & cool comfortable rooms.

Location and friendly staff.

Localisation perfect!!, Pleasent staff- especially lady serving breakfast

Too much price for this quality, breakfast every day the same, all dishes- very poor- available early morning, small balconies without privacy

Megisti, is a beautiful hotel in a fantastic location. This hotel doesnt need anything more and has all teh amenities and services you would want in a hotel.

The hotel could have been a little cleaner and there was no hot water or water pressure,

This is an excellent hotel situated in an idyllic setting. It is one of the nicest and quietest places I have been to. All rooms have either superb balcony views of the town or at least a view of the sea-which is what I was given. Rooms are very comfortable. Staff were friendly.

There was a major water problem in the town the morning I left and no water or showering facilities were available-this was a little inconvenient given the temperatures but out of the hotel's control. The temperature of over 40 degrees with humidity on 2 days that I was there made things quite uncomfortable outside. I am told this is normal for the months of July and August. Would recommend visiting in September as the locals said this was the best time-also cheaper. Could do with more staff for reception area as this was often unmanned but this is really minor. Passport control is lengthy and cumbersome if coming from Turkey. Suggest flying in from another Greek island eg Rhodos to avoid this.

The staff were really helpful polite and eager to assist, breakfast was great and the location was amazing. Make sure you have a 3,30pm check out if you are flying out, it is a long time between the 12 noon check out and the bus leaving for the airport at 4pm. I was able to stay in my room until 2pm even though I forgot to ask for a late check out. I would recommend d this hotel to anyone and it had the best bed of the 14 hotels I have stayed in on my trip so far.

This is a very funny location. The small town of Kastelorizo contains of nothing more than 300 locals and a string of a few hundred houses, hotels, pensions, restaurants, cafes, and shops, spread around the little horse shoe shaped harbor of the small island, just across the Turkish shoreline of Kas. The ferry lands on the one end of the harbor and the Megisti hotel is on the opposite end, but don't despair: the whole harbor is just a 500 meter walk. It's a typical Greek harbor style village, quiet, friendly, nice. And so is the Megisti hotel. In fact, it's the only 'normal' hotel, because most of the other "hotels" are accommodations like pensions or privately rent apartments or rooms. The hotel has decent facilities, reasonable rooms, and a kind staff. Nothing too fancy or special. We enjoyed the sun bed terrace and the swimming access to the harbor and sea, and wandered at least 20 times up and down the cosy boulevard. The island also serves very well as a stepping stone from or to Turkey (by ferry, 20 Euros) and Rhodos (by airplane, 30 Euros).

The town used to be much larger, decades ago (thousands of inhabitants and houses), but crisis, wars, and the very confined enclosure of the island made many unfortunate islander move to more promising and adventurous destinations. Why this story ? Because 90 percent of the tourists who visit this island, are these emigrants, together with their second or third generation off-spring, who regularly pay a short or longer visit to their 'roots'. The majority comes from Australia, but there are also many ties with Italy. So the hotels, pensions, streets, cafes, and restaurants are infested with repeatedly greeting, hugging, and kissing 'home-comers', who talk about the holidays they've spend across Europe, who they've met already, who they've missed, how they're doing, who got married, who died, etc. etc. And everyone feels as if they own the place or at least belong here with special privileges. It's funny at first, but gets a bit nauseating after a while. And as it is with all Greek hotels: power, water, or wifi is down at a regular basis. Don't complain, it's a tradition...

Der Ort klein und beschaulich.

Haben mehr erwartet.

die aussergewoehnliche Lage des Hotels sowie die Freundlichkeit des Hotelpersonals

Alle Zimmer haben Blick auf die Hafeneinfahrt und aufs Meer Richtung Osten. Man kann vom Balkon aus herrliche Sonnenaufgänge über der nahen türkischen Küste beobachten. Die Zimmer sind gut ausgestattet (Mini-Kühlschrank). Das Bad mit Dusche ist modern. Ein Flach-TV empfängt das ZDF. Im ganzen Hotel kann man kostenloses WLAN nutzen. Das Frühstücksbuffet war erstklassig und ersetzte gleich das Mittagessen, wenn man kurz vor 10 kommt. Die Klimaanlage im Zimmer ist im Preis eingeschlossen. Es gibt keine Straßen und auch keine Lokale im Umkreis des Hotels, so dass nachts vollkommene Ruhe herrscht, allenfalls tuckert nachts mal ein Fischerboot vorbei. Von der Sonnenterrasse kann man über eine Leiter ins Meer steigen und gut schwimmen. Strände gibt es allerdings auf der Insel nicht

La posizione sulla baia di Kastellorizzo

Buon albergo in una location da favola
