    This nice little pension was perfect - just a few minutes walk from the bars and restaurants but in a nice quiet area. The host was perfect and takes a pride in the flowers etc. The breakfast was lovely with traditional Greek fare. Highly recommended. Thank you.

    What should have been a perfect location in heart of Old Town marred by live music venue nearby, with the rock band commencing at 11p.m nearly every night. Closing windows to deaden noise necessitates noisy air con usage.

    Sofia is a charming, helpful and responsive host. Beautiful flowers around the property. Everywhere is immaculately clean. Sofia’s home made breakfast extras are excellent.

    We left the window open one night to let the fresh air in but one of the bars was quite noisy. Thankfully you couldn’t hear a thing when the window was closed so we opted for the air con the following evening!

    The location of Sofia Pension in the old town was perfect. Located in the old town, our room was close to everything but set back from the bars and clubs etc. We found some excellent cafes for breakfast just around the corner (Porca Vacca was our favourite for fruit and yoghurt). The room was very reasonably priced a good size and had a very comfy bed. The host was really friendly and was very helpful.

    The only thing that could have been improved was the Wifi signal strength, but we managed ok.

    Very convenient location within the old city walled area of Rhodes. A 10 minute walk from the bus station or taxi drop-off. Sofia, the owner, was very friendly, hospitable and helpful. She is not there all the time - but she is very responsive. Very nice to sit with her, have a cup of coffee and hear about some of her life. The main tourist sites are within easy walking distance, along with many bars and restaurants. The back streets of the old medieval city also have small artisanal shops and surprising little squares, churches etc.

    The room was immaculately clean and serviced daily. The breakfasts made by the lovely Sofia were homemade and excellent. Loved the verandah space to sit out and relax. Also the rooftop terrace was beautiful. Lots of pot plants and a great location; very quiet and yet right in the centre of the old city.

    I hadn't realised that breakfast wasn't included so we left without paying. Sofia sent me a message explaining I hadn't paid so I sent her the payment. This should have been made clearer in the hotel description and also when we were there.

    Lovely quiet location away from the bustle of the old town but just a few minutes walk away from all the museums etc. Very helpful staff who helped us book an electric taxi to the port which is not far but big cases are hard work on cobbles! On the way there, we got a taxi from the airport who cannot take you into the old town so he drops you off and then you get an electric golf style buggy at no charge. The pensione is quite old fashioned but very clean and comfortable. Breakfast (not included) is on the lovely roof terrace.

    Fulla was waiting for me even though I was a bit late and got lost. İt's easy to find, but my mobile wasn't working. The AC works wonderfully, the room was large, and the bed comfortable. Mama Sofia was there on my last morning and arranged a well-priced taxi for my trip to the airport. Would thoroughly recommend and will stay there again.

    The room was kind of little. There was also a second sofa/bed that we did not asked for/needed and it occupied a lot of the room space for no reason. We could see the furniture was kind of old and worn out, and I could say the room kind of needed a deep cleaning because some of the furniture was dusty and stains in the bathroom. The fridge and the air conditioning in the room were very noisy and could bother us sleeping.

    The pension was right in the middle of the old town, with great access to all the tavernas, and close to the port, bus stations and all the attractions of Rhodes town. The ladies administrating the place were attentive to all our needs, changed our towels and bedsheets every 2 days, and always asked if we need something else. In the last day they even let us stay in the room until later that day because our flight was an evening one and the room was spare that day, so we could keep our luggages in the room and have a rest before the flight. The breakfast was fulfilling, although the same everyday.
