We had a wonderful stay here in the two-bedroom villa. It has a stunning view of the shore and is in a peaceful location, yet central to the town and walking distance of the beaches, the acropolis, and restaurants. The villa is in a beautiful traditional style; the beds are generous and very comfortable, it has two well-equipped bathrooms, and there is a really charming veranda/ garden area to chill out on. The staff made us feel welcome and looked after. This is an exceptional hotel if you're staying in Lindos.

Very enjoyable visit to Lindos!
The room was very comfortable and the balcony with sea view was also very good. Breakfasts were excellent and all of the staff were wonderful.

We stayed in a superior suite (room 10) for 8 days. Check-in and check-out were smooth. The front desk staff were excellent and went above and beyond to make sure our stay was pleasant. The room itself was spacious and tastefully decorated. The views from the terrace down onto the bay are simply magnificent. The location of the hotel itself is perfect. It's a short stroll to Lindos town center. Plenty of restaurants and shops to choose from. The hotel is also a short walk to the beach by leaving through the hotel back gate. The hike down to the beach is rigorous, but worth it. Once you get down to the beach they're plenty of sun beds to rent for 10 euros (for two beds canopy umbrella). You can also reach the Lindos Acropolis by walking out of the front of the hotel and walking to the left (rigorous uphill hike to the top with breathtaking views - donkeys are available to ride up if you can't make the hike). Also, the housekeeping staff were great. The breakfast was light and limited, but still had a very nice selection of dishes and breads. My wife and I will definitely be back.

The property is unique in many ways. It is situated on multi-levels of aesthetically pleasing, old-world charming structures that are built into the hillside of Lindos directly underneath the Acropolis. Our Villa was on a main walkway that leads to the bay on one end and the town square on the other. It was an exceptional accommodation in that natural and artistic beauty surrounds you. The Villa and terrace are decorated with beautiful objects from different parts of the world. We were truly transported to a different time and place which should be the purpose of a memorable vacation. The view from the terrace will be with us forever and we will need to tap into our memories when life as we know it bears down on us post vacation.

Incompetent staff. Receptionist, while smiley , makes you feel guilty to ask her for anything and about anything. Room was below average with no privacy whatever. Cleaning staff very loud outside the room. Unpleasant stay. The only good thing was the waiters at breakfast.

We had a wonderful experience. The hotel has a great location and a beautiful setting for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Our rooms had very nice balconies and all of the staff was very friendly. We especially enjoyed meeting and getting to know the owner, Michael and he was very friendly and welcoming. We will certainly stay again at the hotel on our next trip to Rhodes.

A Perfect Grecian Getaway!
When it comes to gorgeous Grecian properties, it doesn't get better than this! The location is unbeatable with stunning views from the rooftop terrace and breakfast space. The town of Lindos is beautiful and you'll be right in the heart of it, with restaurants and shops within a minutes' walking. We stayed in the Honeymoon Suites and were absolutely wowed by the gorgeous curated details in the rooms. Each is slightly different with luxe touches. Beyond the property itself, the service is fabulous. It's personal and professional while being approachable; the perfect balance for a luxury boutique hotel. Would love to return for longer next time - we could easily spend a week!

Best hotel in Lindos!
This is one of the most beautiful hotels I've seen in terms of the well manicured grounds, excellent views, beautiful characteristic furnishings and attention to detail. The staff and the food were both excellent and the location could not have been better in terms of proximity to both the town of Lindos and the beach. The amenities were also some of the best I've found in any hotel. We had a great time and just wish we could have stayed longer!

romantic settings.
this hotel treated us like royalty, the staff seemed to know our every need before we had even thought of it. the room was beautiful. the views over the bay and the adriatic sea were wonderful. The walk to and from the beach was steep but possible and as soon as we arrived back at the hotel with the wet beach towels (supplied by the hotel) they were replaced with clean dry ones ready for our next outing. the food was excellent.

Best hotel in outstanding location
In my years of travelling in many countries, I must say that this hotel is in the top 3 if not number 1. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful and the hotel is beautiful beyond belief! Hotel is extremely clean and well maintained, restaurant (Breakfast, lunch and dinner) is outstanding and location within the city is ideal. Melenos Lindos is 5 mins walk from the heart of the city and the beach and provides all services you may need including babysitting. All three of us loved the hotel, the city and the staff. Many thanks to all for such a unique and splendid hotel!

A genuine Rodos experience
When we planned this vacation we were looking for a more typical Greek/Rhodes hotel rather than a generic "resort" type place - the Melenos Lindos didn't disappoint one bit. Everything about the hotel - architecture, rooms, location, atmosphere, fixtures and furniture - are genuinely Lindian. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful and the service from front desk, restaurant and maids was outstanding. Lindos is a great location with plenty of things to do including a beach, an interesting town and an Acropolis/fortified Crusader castle to explore. The hotel is more than halfway up the mount to the castle so not as far to walk/climb although the donkey ride is an enjoyable alternative. A shuttle bus runs regularly from the town square (plaza) up the hill to the main road and main bus stop where buses run regularly to all the major points of interest on the island - a one way trip to Rhodes is well worth doing and at only 5 Euros. We enjoyed all the meals we ate in the hotel although there are plenty of other alternatives in the town. The complementary breakfast is not to be missed and is enough food to set you up for the day. Lunch and dinner were also very excellent. The only word of caution is in regard to the beds - they are built on a raised dais which takes some getting in and, especially, out of!!

Melenos Hotel in Lindos, Rhodes - Great location
Stunning beautiful hotel in equally beautiful location. Great if you want to escape the bussle of the surrounding old town and truely relax. Doesn't have a pool but unnecessary with the sea so close (although going to the beach involves walking up and down a very steep path). Rooms with the bigger private terraces are far nicer as there isn't really anywhere else in the hotel to sit outside.

Unser 2wöchige Aufenthalt war durchweg perfekt. Da das Dorf nicht mit dem Auto befahrbar ist, wurden wir vom Parkplatz unseres Mietfahrzeuges am Ortseingang mit dem Golfcart abgeholt und in das Hotel gebracht. Das ganze Hotel und unser Zimmer waren sehr geschmackvoll in einem Mix aus türkischen und marokkanischen Möbeln und Accessoires eingerichtet, die Terassen mit vielen Pflanzen und schönen Möbeln sehr gemütlich gestaltet. Die Reinigung der Zimmer war perfekt, jeden Tag frische Handtücher, auch für den Strand, Kaffeepads und Wasser für die Maschine im Zimmer wurden jeden Tag aufgefüllt. Zur Begrüßung und nach 1 Woche Augenthalt bekamen wir Wein und Vesper aufs Zmmer, sehr sehr lecker! Auch das Frühstück ließ keine Wünsche übrig, es konnte individuell bestellt werden und wurde frisch und liebevoll zubereiten. Der frische Filterkaffee war mega, ein super Start jeden Morgen!! Das Dorf und sehr viele Restaurants und Boutiquen sind in 5 min. zu Fuss zu erreichen, unser absolutes Highlight war das Restaurant Dionisos, mega leckere griechische Küche mit hochwertigen Varianten neu erfunden, ein Genuss!! Im Hotel konnten wir uns mit allen Fragen an Giorgia wenden, die auch gute Tips für Ausflüge für uns hatte. Vom Hotel aus sind 2 wunderschöne Strände in 5-10 min. zu Fuß den Berg runter zu erreichen, für 2 Liegen mit Schirm zahlt man je nach Komfort 15 bis 25 Euro. Großes Lob von uns an diesen wunderbaren Ort. Herzlichen Dank

Die Lage, die individuelle Gestaltung der Zimmer, der Garten waren sehr schön. Das Personal sehr freundliche und bemüht. Die tägliche Reinigung könnte gründlicher sein, vor allem auch die Armaturen werden nicht täglich gereinigt. Dusche könnte auch sauber sein, vergammelte Ecken. Der Garten wird zwar gegossen aber viele der Blumen könnten mehr Pflege vertragen. Tagelang viele vertrocknete Blütenstände ohne das sich jemand kümmert und sie ausschneidet. Polsterung der Terrassenmöbel wurde auch nie gereinigt oder ausgetauscht. Obwohl der Besitzer ständig anwesend ist, scheint es niemanden zu geben der Housekeeping Kontrollgänge in allen Bereichen macht.
