Haplotēs

Hotel Description

You know what? I wasn’t expecting much when I pulled up to Haplotēs – honestly, the name alone had me struggling with pronunciation – but this place completely changed my perspective on what a four-star hotel in Rhodes can be. It sits right on Επαρχιακή Οδός Κοσκινού in Koskinou, which sounds super Greek and intimidating until you realize you’re actually in this perfect sweet spot between the airport and the main tourist chaos of Rhodes town. The drive from the airport is maybe ten minutes, and you’re close enough to everything without being stuck in the middle of cruise ship crowds stumbling around at all hours.

What really got me was how they’ve managed to keep that authentic Greek island vibe without falling into the whole white-and-blue cliché trap that every other place seems obsessed with. The building itself has this understated elegance – I mean, “Haplotēs” literally means simplicity in Greek, and they actually live up to it instead of just slapping a meaningful name on generic hotel vibes. The staff genuinely seems to care about what they’re doing, which you notice immediately during check-in when they’re asking about your actual plans instead of just handing over key cards. There’s this nice balance where they’re professional but not stuffy, helpful but not hovering – you know that sweet spot that’s surprisingly hard to find.

The location really works in your favor because Koskinou village is right there when you want that local taverna experience (and trust me, you do), but you’re also positioned perfectly for day trips around the island. I actually ended up exploring way more than I planned because getting anywhere felt manageable from here. The beach situation is solid too – you’re not oceanfront, but honestly, that keeps the prices reasonable and the noise down, and the decent beaches are close enough that it doesn’t matter. What surprised me most was how quiet it stays at night; you get proper sleep without feeling like you’re missing out on anything. The whole place just feels thoughtfully put together rather than thrown together to meet some corporate hotel standard, and that 9.5 rating starts making perfect sense once you’ve been there a couple days and realized they’re just consistently doing everything right without making a big show of it.

  The hosts were truly fantastic and so kind. They helped us A LOT when the transport by taxi/bus didn't work. They prepared our room with melon and wine and they had toys for our kids. They were extremely friendly and responded on WhatsApp within minutes. Could not have better hosts 🙏🏽 we felt really taken care of and the rooms were great!

  Fin lägenhet med allt och lite till som strykjärn, vattenleksaker och lite andra saker till barn, och annat som ger det lilla extra av omsorg

  What could be improved: Ev ile alakalı değil ama bizim konaklamamız sürecinde komşu dairede tadilat vardı onun gürültüsü vardı sabah saatlerinde.Ev sahibinin kontrolü dışındaydı bu durum.

  Tutto perfetto. Accoglienza straordinaria. Siamo arrivati quasi a mezzanotte a causa del volo e non solo ci hanno accolto ma si sono perfino preoccupati di lasciare qualcosa da mangiare perché a quell'ora non avremmo trovato altrove. L'appartamento era pulitissimo. Munito di ogni confort. La posizione fantastica. A pochi minuti di macchina da Rodi e Falirachi per uscire la sera, a pochi minuti dalle spiagge. I padroni di casa discreti ma sempre sorridenti e disponibili. Consigliatissimo.

• Eirini from Greece – 18 July 2024 (10/10)

  Ξεπερασε τις προσδοκίες μας!! Υπέροχη φιλόξενη οικοδέσποινα, πρόθυμη να μας βοηθήσει με ότι ζητήσαμε και χρειάστηκαμε κυριολεκτικά στο λεπτό!! Ιδανική τοποθεσία, 10 λεπτά απο την παλιά πόλη της Ρόδου με το αυτοκίνητο και δίπλα στις ομορφότερες παραλίες. Διέθετε όλες τις ανέσεις. Σίγουρα θα επιλέγαμε το κατάλυμα πάλι αν βρεθούμε ξανα στο μαγικό αυτό νησί!!

  La pulizia

• Iro from Greece – 19 August 2023 (10/10)

  Αν μπορούσαμε να βάλουμε πάνω από 10 αστέρια, θα τα βάζαμε! Καταρχάς οι οικοδεσπότες κ. Χρήστος και κα Μαρία είναι υπέροχοι και γλυκύτατοι άνθρωποι. Νιώσαμε σαν συγγενείς τους φιλοξενούμενοι. Μας προσέφεραν φρουτα παραγωγής τους, μας πρότειναν μέρη στη Ρόδο, μας βοήθησαν σε πολλα. Επίσης είναι πολύ φιλόζωοι και υποδέχτηκαν με αγάπη το σκυλάκι μας, παρ'ότι γάβγιζε στους περαστικούς.Τους ευχαριστούμε για όλα θερμά.
  Τα Κοσκινού είναι το πιο όμορφο χωριό, με γραφικά σοκάκια υπέροχης αρχιτεκτονικής, με καλές ταβέρνες, πολύ κοντά στην πόλη. Το σημείο που βρίσκεται το σπίτι έχει την απόλυτη ησυχία τη νύχτα.
  Το σπίτι είναι πιο όμορφο και πιο μεγάλο από ότι στις φωτογραφίες! Όμορφα διαμοσμημένο, πεντακάθαρο, είχε τα πάντα, με πολύ άνετη βεράντα, καλό κρεβάτι, 2 τηλεοράσεις εκ των οποίων η μία με Netflix. Ένα από τα πιο καλά καταλύματα που έχουμε πάει.
  Περάσαμε καταπληκτικές και άνετες διακοπές στη Ρόδο χάρη σε αυτό το σπίτι και τους υπέροχους οικοδεσπότες του!

• Chiara from Italy – 16 July 2023 (9/10)

  Haplotes è un appartamento davvero carino, pulito, ben arredato e funzionale, in cui non manca nulla. Un ringraziamento speciale alla signora Maria e a Vassili che hanno soddisfatto in tempo reale ogni nostra esigenza. All'arrivo abbiamo trovato frutta, caffè, grissini, dolci. Koskinou è strategica se si ha la macchina e si vuole girare in piena libertà l'isola ed è a pochi minuti di auto da Rodi. L'appartamento è in una zona tranquilla, ha il posto auto interno e si può raggiungere a piedi il centro del paese per cenare o fare una passeggiata. Abbiamo davvero lasciato il cuore ad Haplotes!

  Att det låg i koskinou. Hon som mötte oss var väldigt snäll.
  
  What could be improved: Lite för personligt för att känna sig avslappnad. Men helt okej.
