Good value for money if you're just after a place to sleep. Our room did not look exactly like the photos but all was fine. It was lovely to be able to swim as well!

Great Value, Lovely Grounds
Great value stay, the apartment was spacious and outside patio was very nice. Overlooked beautifully kept gardens. The pool is a nice size. Can hire tennis court on site for €15 an hour. Reception staff were very friendly, helpful and informative. A 25 minute walk into town or there is a bus stop named after the hotel two minutes outside of entrance. Fabulous stay, would come back again.

Myself and my partner had such a lovely stay at Folies Apartments :) we had a self catering apartment that overlooked the pond area and it was perfect, it was quiet, we rarely heard other guests. It had a little balcony so we could sit and eat our breakfast outside. It was clean and had everything we needed, we had hired a car and there was lots of parking available. I think we were possibly in the newer apartments as some looked newer than others. Nice pool area to be able to chill. Good choice of restaurants, in walking distance of a shot drive/longer walk into Old Town :) Of course this isnt a 5* resort but for the price we paid we were very very happy and we would stay again in if were ever back in Corfu :)

Great Short Stay
We only stayed for one night before moving on as we were due to arrive into Corfu late - for this purpose the hotel was perfect (or perhaps if you used it as a base to explore the island from). The pool was pleasant and warm and the grounds looked well maintained. Check in was smooth, easy and friendly with the apartment being clean and had good AC. The bathroom isn’t brand new but does it’s job. We didn’t use the kitchen but looked fine. There is a pharmacy, small supermarket l, bakery and coffee shop 2 mins walk away so is very convenient and is also well connected for a few buses. All in all, a good place for pit stop either coming from or going to the airport 👍

Amazing Apartments Style property enjoyed that surrounding area very to close to everything you need to see. If you like animals this is a great place as the place has a lot of friendly cats. They were adorable. The place has a great atmosphere. The bathrooms need some work as they are mold prone and there is nothing separating the shower from the rest of the bathroom and water goes everywhere.

The room was extremely clean and new. It looked newly built. The pool and bar was lovely. Reception was very helpful and the location is close to town and airport (5mins drive!). However they absolutely should tell guests that there are loud roosters and dogs nearby screaming from 4am. Ear plugs will fix this problem, but they definitely should say it up front.

The reception staff were extremely lovely and helpful. The apartment was clean and tidy but there were areas of poor repair around skirting etc. The fridge turned off one night, defrosted mouldy ice water from the freezer compartment spoiling all the fresh food I left in there. The hotel is quite far away from the main populated areas. Two restaurants nearby were empty the first night, but the pizza place was really good and busy the next. €10 in a taxi into town. The apartments were better suited to Greek holiday makers. As an English woman alone it felt isolating. Although the bar tender was friendly, it was empty most of the time. The pool unfortunately was horrible, dirty water, full of leaves and disrepair of the lining. Extremely uninviting. The gardens were beautiful.

We travelled mid October, ,so end of season. We picked this place as it was close to the airport. In our booking we paid for the previous night so we could assess our room on arrival. We advised that our flight landed at 4am. We arrived but reception was closed. We telephoned the hotel and the mobile number on the closed door. No response. We had paid in advance and the taxi had left and I had no signal for wifi. It was a Sunday. We sat outside until another tourist was leaving. They felt so bad for us that they gave their keys to us. By this time it was 7am and there was no one at reception so they couldn't actually book out. During this time we were bitten my mosquitos. We borrowed those keys and crashed in there apartment. We were so tired that we slept in some one else's bed. Shocking. At 11am they receptionist woke us to say that the hotel had left a message that the keys to apartment 4 were in the door. I did not know we're apartment 4 was as there was nothing on the reception window to indicate the layout of the hotel. We moved to the other room. This ruined our arrival. We believe the landy who had given us her key had rung the reception to explain when she had vacated the room. For a hotel who are located near the airport you who expect them to offer facilities to guest to suit their travel arrangements. Whilst staying at this property workmen started drilling at 8am and throughout our 8 night stay made repairs to the sister apartment block. pool unclean

We needed a base for a day/evening ahead of our ferry booking to another island. It was perfect for us. The kids loved the pool and pizza! We ventured into Corfu old town in the evening which was lovely. Room was a little basic but roomy and clean.

A great place slightly outside the town centre
Fantastic, spacious, comfortable accommodation in a non-tourist area (which meant food, drinks etc could be purchased much more cheaply than in Corfu Town), only slight downside was that the area was a bit rundown (authentic?) and there was some aircraft noise

Lovely, clean hotel
The Hotel Folies is a lovely, clean, air conditioned ( inc rooms ) & well run hotel. The staff were exemplary, very friendly & very helpful. The cleaning service was excellent. The hotel's gardens are very well maintained & lovely to lie, sit it or use the pool with good bar service if required. Overall this is a great hotel, the surrounding location has a good few restaurants/souvlaki bars, the ones we would recommend are Paprika, about 300 yards from hotel, Pizza Flogas about 50 yds & Bar Portioli about 500 yards. There is a good bus service to Corfu town ( approx 10 minutes bus ride ) or a 30 minute walk approx. Overall we really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Folies

Amazing stay
Our stay at Folies was excellent. The staff were very helpful with every request. For instance, we had only booked one night at the hotel because we wanted to see if we liked it or not. It took us about five minutes to decide that we wanted to stay there for the remainder of our stay in Corfu, but the hotel was fully booked one of the nights we requested. Still that was no problem, because the hotel owned several other apartments in Corfu where they let us stay for the same price (even though it should have cost us more). The manager even gave us a ride there. - It might be a bit far (for some people) from the city center. It took us about 30 minutes to walk. But the cabride is only 10 Euros. The only real problem that we had was the fact that there were a lot of mosquitos at night, so bring mosquito repellent.

Our Week on Corfu
We found this one by surprise on Hotel.com. We have stayed in other places on the island in the past and have not been pleased with the cleanliness or the condition of the rooms - SO, finding Folies was a wonder. For us the location was good to visit with family. It is interesting near a road, but the noise is cushioned considerably by the lovely gardens around. The staff were fantastic, and helpful. Our room was cleaned every morning by a lovely lady, she even went as far as to ensure our nightwear was laid out beautifully. We had self catering, the little kitchen was ideal. We overlooked the pool. As it was mid September there were more older people enjoying the tranquillity of Folies. You could have breakfast by the pool if you did not want to 'Do it yourself'. Parking was fine for us. There is not much more to say, but, 'We will be back'. We go to Corfu most years to visit with family, we have found a wonderful place to stay now. Maybe I should not be telling you all this - we don't want it to become tooo busy. However, WELL DONE 'FOLIES', you are doing a great job. We booked through Hotel.com for this one.

Perfect spot near the airport
We had several people in our party arriving over the course of a few nights, and the Follies was a great place for us to meet up and regroup. It is a 10 minute drive (10€ fare) from the airport, and about 10 minute drive (unwalkable, you must drive) to old corfu town. The bar had very inexpensive meals and drinks, the pool was lovely and our room was perfect. The room was very clean and everything worked well. All in all, a great place when coming or going out of Corfu.

Nice family hotel close to airport with pool
Nice apartments very close to the airport (we walked it as we didn't have much luggage, which took about 40 minutes). Also possible to walk into Corfu Town, which also takes about 40 minutes although the road is mostly missing footpaths so might be a difficult walk with young children/a pram - might be a good idea to rent a scooter if you were going to be staying a while. Nice room with TV, air con, en suite, patio, small kitchen area (grill oven and hob) and fridge. Pool area is leafy with sun loungers and pool is clean and well maintained. Recommended if you're not bothered about being by the beach. Only downside is that there were quite a few mosquitoes about in the evening! There's also a reasonably sized supermarket about 5 minutes walk away which is open until around 9pm.

Séjour de 5 nuits
Séjour d'une semaine au mois d'octobre. La chambre était spacieuse et le lit confortable. Plusieurs bons restaurants à proximité. Mais attention, l'hôtel est situé à proximité d'une route passante. On n'entend pas le bruit mais elle est peu agréable pour circuler quand on est piéton.

Dear Madam , Breakfast is not included in the price and nowhere do we state that it is included in the price.The prices remain the same if you pay with cash or card , what you write is not true.The fllor was wet because you insisted for an early check-in for free and we tried to do the best for you to serve you.As for the pool , is always clean because we take care every day.We ae really sorry for your bad review.

Das große Apartment war gemütlich eingerichtet, mit dem Nötigsten ausgestattet und sauber. An allen Fenstern waren Fliegengitter und die ganze Anlage war sehr gepflegt. Neben an ist eine tolle Bäckerei und schräg gegenüber ein kleiner Supermarkt. Verschiedene Restaurants sind auch in der Nähe. Der Flughafen ist zu Fuß erreichbar, in die Stadt war es mit persönliche zu weit zu laufen, es gibt eine Bushaltestelle direkt vor dem Hotel - man sollte vorher prüfen wann der Bus kommt, sonst steht man unter Umständen recht lang.

Unser Flug wurde abends gestrichen und hier haben wir noch kurzfristig ein Zimmer bekommen. Sehr nette und hilfsbereite Mitarbeiterin an der Rezeption. Schöne Anlage und wirklich sehr großzügiges Appartement. Die Ausstattung ist veraltet, aber ausreichend. Es fehlte ein Stöpsel um das Waschbecken in der Küche zu verschließen. Es waren falsche Spots in die Decke eingebaut, die die ganze Nacht über glimmten ( genau über dem Bett), die Bodendielen waren verschoben und auseinander geraten.
