This was our favorite stay during our 2 weeks trip accross Italy and Greece. Right in the middle of the old town, enjoyed it so much. Sofia is super nice & friendly, we felt like home. We are definitely coming back next year to Rodos and Sofia Pension. Highly recommend!!

Magdalena Croatia

The owner, Sofia, was wonderful - warm, welcoming, helpful. The photos don't do this place justice. It is very attractive - lots of plants, lovely outdoor sheltered terrace for breakfast. Sofia served us a great breakfast. It was not included in the price of the room but was terrific value for the cost and so convenient to be available on site.

Linda Canada

We loved the place and the people working there. Breakfast is amazing. Thanks Sofia.

Axelle France

Sofia’s kindness, all the plants on the property, the situation is exceptional.

Anne France

Sophia and her husband were excellent hosts. The breakfast was very substantial. The location was very central to the old city of Rhodes, everything in walking distance. But, can not say enough about Sophia and her husband, they just made us feel at home.

Robert Canada

Everything - Sofia very welcoming. Room basic but very homely had a fridge to keep drinks chilled. Perfect location. Very pretty and relaxing roof terrace where you can sit with a nice drink in the evening or enjoy a health Greek breakfast made by Sophia

Oonagh United Kingdom

Position was close to everything but quiet. Owners took us to the marina early to catch our ferry to Marmaris. We really appreciated this. The breakfast balcony was a lovely peaceful place to read with lots of greenery and flowering plants around.

Jacqueline New Zealand

The breakfast was wonderful: cheese , eggs, fruit, Greek yoghurt, toast, juice, and the best coffee we had in Greece! This was served on the upstairs terrace outdoors , with flowering plants everywhere. Also, we really appreciated the kindness and generosity of Sofia and her husband .
