400 Steps Apartment

400 Steps Apartment Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to 400 Steps Apartment, you immediately get the sense that this place is something special — and honestly, the name should give you a hint about what you’re in for. Located right on Στρατηγού Ζήση street in the heart of Rhodes Town, this isn’t your typical hotel experience. It’s more like staying in a beautifully appointed local residence that happens to be positioned in one of the most coveted spots on the island. The building has that authentic Greek character that you can’t fake, and you know what? The approach really does involve quite a few steps, but trust me, it’s worth every single one.

Location & Neighborhood

I mean, you really can’t ask for a better location in Rhodes Town — this area consistently ranks as the top-rated neighborhood, and after spending time here, I completely understand why. You’re literally surrounded by the medieval charm of the Old Town, with its cobblestone streets and ancient walls, but you’re also close enough to modern amenities that you don’t feel cut off from civilization. The fact that couples rate this spot so highly makes perfect sense when you experience those romantic evening strolls through the nearby historic quarters. What really surprised me was how quiet it manages to be despite being so centrally located — you get all the benefits of being in the thick of things without the constant noise.

The Space & Amenities

The apartment itself feels like a well-kept secret that someone’s finally letting you in on. It’s got this lived-in comfort that makes you feel at home immediately, but with all the thoughtful touches that remind you you’re somewhere special. The space is designed with couples in mind — there’s something about the layout and the way everything flows that just works for two people exploring Rhodes together. And here’s something you don’t often find in this part of town: free parking. Honestly, if you’ve ever tried to navigate parking in a historic Mediterranean city center, you’ll know this is practically a miracle.

The Rhodes Experience

What I love about staying at 400 Steps Apartment is how it positions you to actually experience Rhodes like a local rather than just another tourist passing through. You’re close enough to the Palace of the Grand Master and the Street of the Knights that you can pop over whenever you want, but you’re also perfectly placed to discover those little tavernas and cafes that don’t make it into the guidebooks. The morning walk to grab coffee becomes this lovely ritual where you start to recognize the shopkeepers and get a feel for the rhythm of the neighborhood. It’s that kind of place where you find yourself planning to come back before you’ve even left.

Why Guests Love It

With a 9.7 rating, this place clearly strikes a chord with visitors, and after experiencing it myself, I can see exactly why. It’s the combination of authenticity and comfort that’s so hard to find — you get the genuine Greek island experience without sacrificing the amenities that make a trip truly relaxing. The location score of 9.3 isn’t just a number; it reflects how this spot manages to put you right in the center of everything that makes Rhodes Town magical while still giving you a peaceful retreat to return to each evening.

To book a hotel in Rhodes during Orthodox Easter, visitors plan ahead to balance candlelit vigils with Symi boat excursions.

  הדירה נמצאת מול החוף
  
  What could be improved: אין תחנת אוטובוס בקרבת הדירה – מומלץ להשכיר רכב

• Mi̇hri̇can from Turkey – 3 April 2025 (10/10)

  Fırtına olduğu zaman Rodos'a gittik evin konumu çok iyiydi hiç sıkıntı çekmedik. ev sahibi çok açıklayıcı bilgiler vermişti eve girdiğimizde atıştırmalık ve içki bırakmıştı. ev temiz ve güzeldi önünde geniş bir parak alanı vardı, daire deniz manzaralı idi.rodos kale içine beş dakika yürüme mesafesinde olup ev görselde görüldüğü gibiydi birdaha rodosa gelirsek bu evde kalırız

• Charleen from South Africa – 3 January 2025 (8/10)

  This is a lovely apartment (don't be put off by the not-so-nice exterior). It is very well equipped, spotlessly clean and beautifully furnished. We appreciated the bottle of wine and two cans of beer.
  
  What could be improved: On the listing, it states that there are two bedrooms. This is not correct. There is one bedroom. The second bed is in the open-plan living room. This will be a big issue if two couples rent the apartment.
  
  You do have a good sea view, but the ocean isn't directly in front of the apartment (which was what we expected after looking at the pictures).Instead, there is a large empty piece of land in front of the apartment. It is generally used for parking.
  
  We stayed for one week, and only four coffee pods were provided (in total, for two people).

• Erkan from Turkey – 5 November 2024 (10/10)

• Vabvm from Ireland – 20 October 2024 (10/10)

  This Apartment is great, it's beautifully finished,brand new with everything you could want or need.
  Comfortable beds, soft linens, great shower, smart TV / WiFi and lots of thoughtful extras added by the host. We were here with two teens and it was perfect.
  The location is great just a few minutes from the old town.Easy check in/out and great contact from the kind and thoughtful host.

• Helmi from Finland – 22 September 2024 (10/10)

  We loved the apartment! The host was so nice and helpful. She responded fast and provided us with so much info as well as freebies (snacks, drinks, shampoo etc.) The communicatiob was so easy and the apartment was really clean!
  
  What could be improved: Only minus was the fact that there were listed a wellness pool, but atleast we did not find it (we didn’t need it so it’s ok)

• Калинка from Bulgaria – 18 July 2024 (10/10)

  This is a great place to stay! The host of the apartment was very nice. The apartment is fully equipped! There are enough parking lots for the cars. The place is near the old city.

• Eleni from United Kingdom – 14 July 2024 (10/10)

  We absolutely loved our stay and had the best experience. We were met with the loveliest welcome, with cereal bars, wine and beer in the fridge and super clear instructions to enter! The apartment is stunning and in an amazing location and the hosts were always a message away. Will definitely be staying here again when back in Rhodes. Thank you for everything and for making our stay so special 🙂

• Sofia from Germany – 23 May 2024 (10/10)

  Das Apartment ist wunderschön und nagelneu eingerichtet, hat eine tolle Größe, ist mit allem ausgestattet was man sich vorstellen kann und von der Lage her perfekt! Direkt in der Gasse vor der Wohnung sind Parkplätze. In 3 min ist man zu Fuß an der Stadtmauer und dem Beginn der Innenstadt.
  Wir können das Apartment zu 100% empfehlen und kommen wieder, wenn wir wieder auf Rhodos sind!

• Dionisis from Greece – 16 May 2024 (10/10)

  Εξαιρετική τοποθεσία και εξαιρετικό δωμάτιο, ακριβώς δίπλα στην Παλιά πόλη της Ρόδου. Τα διαμέρισμα ήταν πάρα πολύ καθαρό, πλήρως εξοπλισμένο και ήταν ιδανικό για εμένα και την οικογένειά μου. Δεν αντιμετωπίσαμε κανένα απολύτως πρόβλημα και η επικοινωνία μας με το κατάλυμα ήταν ιδανική, παρόλο που κλείσαμε το δωμάτιο σε πολύ σύντομο χρονικό διάστημα. Σίγουρα η επόμενη επίσκεψή μας στη Ρόδο θα συνδυαστεί και θα προσαρμοστεί βάση της διαθεσιμότητας του συγκεκριμένου καταλύματος. Μακάρι παντού να είχαμε την ίδια ποιότητα διαμονής. Προς τους ιδιοκτήτες: Σας αξίζουν συγχαρητήρια για τον επαγγελματισμό σας αλλά και για το γούστο σας.
