Spirit of the Knights Boutique Hotel

Such a beautiful and charming hotel, the rooms were delightful and the staff could not do enough for us. An absolute gem hidden away in the winding labyrinth of Rhodes. The breakfast was really nice and the garden is lovely. A perfect place to have breakfast in the sun. If I ever go back I will definitely be staying here again.

Stayed for 2 nights and was upgraded which was a nice touch. The suite was large and well appointed but I didn't sleep well. There was no headboard on the bed and I found this really uncomfortable. We were the only ones staying the first night, with another room occupied on the second night. I felt at times, like an inconvenience. My suitcase was too heavy, I split coffee on the tablecloth, didn't decide quick enough what I wanted for breakfast. Maybe just a different sense of humour but it made me on edge. Other people seem to have had a different experience so horses for courses I guess

We stayed for 8 nights in the Pasha Suite which was a great choice. It was the last week in October and the weather was perfect- even upo to 30 degrees one day and no need for anything with sleeves the whole time. This was the last week of the season and almost everything was still open. I have bullet pointed our comments (but they have vanished), and particularly where we found previous reviews to have commented on a negative, have included our experiences. Positives Extremely accommodating hosts (Elena and Duncan) with just the right amount of contact. When you needed them, they went above and beyond. Two highlights were: receiving a bottle of rose on arrival as it was my 60th birthday celebration, but by far the most amazing was that as we were not due to fly until 10.30pm, Elena let us delay check out until late evening, and continue to use the room until then! This meant we had a truly delightful last day, unencumbered by luggage, and were able to shower and change before we left. Plenty of privacy Beautiful touches like the painted ceiling in the lounge area, gorgeous stone work and some lovely carved wood outside. Great for access to all the amenities and attractions as long as you’re able to walk- bring flat sandals with strong soles as you’ll feel the cobbles though anything thin (not flat cobbles, real lumpy ones!) Fresh still and sparkling bottled water placed in room every day was very welcome Very comfortable super king sized bed No noise from above the Pasha Suite Gorgeous peaceful and shady courtyard with the constant sound of cascading water and some beautiful flowering trees and plants (sound of water also meant if other guests were in the courtyard, you could not hear their conversations) Breakfast outside very relaxing Loungers outside in shade and sun to read on, and lots of books (mostly in English) from novels to more highbrow material and guide books in the library (no need to bring holiday reading) Wonderful steam room with a handheld shower and toiletries within too. The marble is so cool -even just to lie on it is refreshing Small bright reading lamp was provided (in the wardrobe) Lots of hangers and wardrobe space Giant full length mirror Air con x 2 - one in bedroom and one in lounge Lots of beautiful stray cats all around the town, but none in the hotel Rhodes Old Town is a great place to buy leather handbags and jewellery Lovely boat trips to Lindos and Symi A marvellous and extremely picturesque, historical old town with dozens of lovely restaurants , shops and bars Minuses (we had to dig deep) No fridge in the Pasha suite A shower cap would have been useful A bit tricky to make a hot drink as you needed a tray or a bigger space / you can ask for milk but can’t store it in the room TV did not have any channels- but there was Netflix if you had your own password (we didn’t). Prime was available without own login. Lighting very dim in rooms giving slightly gloomy atmosphere

Well Elena is magic in all ways and Duncan has the weirdest sense of humour. Both are brilliant. So helpful and superbly grounded they make this wonderful hotel even better. My partner's birthday was celebrated with a delicious complimentary bottle of rose and two bottles of local beer. Stunning hotel, very reminiscent of a top Marrakesh riad and similarly difficult to locate but well worth the effort and what a garden! The atmosphere is magnificent, the hotel is immaculately clean. The position is perfect very peaceful. Could not recommend it more. We have travelled extensively and it joins our list of best ever places to stay, possibly right at the top.

Absolute gem of a hotel. We slept in the Ottoman suite, superb atmospheric room decorated in keeping with the name. Linen and towels perfect. The hotel is hidden within the Old Town, a maze of tiny streets leads you to this small oasis of tranquility. The small hydro pool set in the garden surrounded by comfy seating and beds is a great spot to while away time in the late afternoon being a great suntrap. Elena and Duncan are fantastic family hosts, serving a superb choice of foods at breakfast time. They are always on hand throughout the day till late evening to help with any queries or recommendations. Would not hesitate at returning or recommending this brilliant gem. Thank you for a fantastic week.

My sister, best friend and I had the most amazing holiday in Rodos Old Town made all the best for staying at Spirit of the Knights. We got a fantastic welcome from Elena, Duncan and Dex. The rooms are amazing, attention to detail 100%. One of the most beautiful places I have ever had the fortune to stay. I hope to revisit with my husband very soon. Beautiful place, beautiful people.

Beautiful settings. A small quiet gem in the middle of the old town Rhodos. The owner of the hotel is a fantastic lady and she provided the best service for us during our stay. We will be back next year for sure! Best breakfast and good advice for things to see in Rhodos was provided! We highly recommend this hotel!

Superb Boutique Hotel Experience!! I stayed twice in 10 Days on july/August for family and couple trip. Feel like home and planning to stay there every year . Elena Elena Elena!! She made our trip wonderful with super welcoming , care and professional during our stay. She did over her tasks . One of the best hotelier I see in my hotel experience . We will definitely come back!! Great memorable Hotel!!

For our first trip to Rhodes I can't imagine a better experience. The hotel is within the walled city of Rhodes but nicely tucked away from the throngs of people you encounter by the palace and in the restaurants and shops. The hotel itself is tastefully decorated, and the courtyard seating is nicely shaded with trees and flowering shrubbery, making it cool (very welcome in July heat) and comfortable seating. The man and woman who run the hotel ... Duncan, an ex-pat Brit with a charming and self-depricating sense of humour, and Elena, who made the most wonderful breakfasts and was a source of many excellent recommendations ... were personable, amazingly helpful, and felt like family by the time we were leaving. We would recommend it to anyone and will surely stay there on our next visit to Rhodes.
