Louis House

Hotel Description

You know what caught me off guard about Louis House? I was expecting another typical Rhodes Town boutique hotel, but walking up to 41 Χατζηαγγέλου street, I realized this place actually gets the balance right between being in the thick of things and giving you some breathing room. It’s tucked into this quieter stretch where you’re not dealing with the main tourist chaos, but honestly – you’re still just a few minutes’ walk from Mandraki Harbor and all that medieval old town magic.

The thing is, Rhodes Town can be tricky with hotels. You’ve got places right on the water that sound amazing until you realize the cruise ship crowds start rolling past your window at 7 AM, or you end up somewhere in the new town that feels disconnected from why you came to Rhodes in the first place. Louis House sort of threads that needle perfectly. The staff – and I mean this – actually seem to know what they’re doing. Check-in was smooth (I got there around 2 PM on a busy July day), and the woman at reception gave me this little hand-drawn map showing the best route to avoid the crowds when walking to the Palace of the Grand Masters. Little touches like that, you know? The rooms have this modern Mediterranean thing going on without trying too hard. Clean lines, decent air conditioning that actually works – crucial in summer – and the beds are legitimately comfortable. I’m picky about mattresses, and I slept well. The bathrooms are updated and spacious enough that you’re not bumping into everything.

What really sold me though was the neighborhood feel once you step outside. There’s this family-run taverna about two blocks down that locals actually eat at (not just tourists), and in the evenings you get these amazing cooking smells drifting through the streets. The hotel sits right in that sweet spot where you can walk to Elli Beach in about 10 minutes if you want to swim, but you’re also close enough to duck into the old town’s cobblestone alleys whenever the mood strikes. Parking can be a bit of a puzzle in this area – I mean, it’s an old city – but the hotel staff helped sort that out too. After staying at places with those brutal 9.6 ratings that turn out to be total marketing nonsense, I was skeptical, but honestly? This one feels earned. It’s not trying to be the fanciest place on the island, but everything just… works. The kind of place where you spend less time thinking about the hotel and more time enjoying Rhodes, which is exactly what you want.

Reviews

• Ferenc from Hungary – 22 April 2025 (10/10)

  Well equipped, supermarket, pharmacy, restaurants few minutes walking – even with a kid 4-5mins.
  Free parking almost always in front of the gate, or in a 5-10meters distance.
  Lidl, city center 5 mins by car in April – so in mid of tourist season may take longer especially the center.
  Still need any kitchen-, houseware, toys, gardening etc, Jumbo is 10mins by car.

  Louis's house was perfect.
  First of all, Louis is very kind, friendly and helpful.
  The house was clean, everything you need was there, stove, toaster, microwave, oven.
  The bed was clean and comfortable.
  All rooms had air conditioning.
  Cold water and treats were waiting in the fridge.
  There was a shop, 2 minutes away, and the zephyros beach is about a 4-5 minute walk away.
  We would love to go back and we recommend it.

  I don't know how to start this review. I came to Rhodes with my family to have some good time. One of the members of my family got ill and needed to be hospitalised immediately. From the start until the end, the owners of the house treated us like we are one of their own. They did everything they can to help us with everything we needed help with. They drove us back and forth from the hospital and even checked the patient, cooked us dinner. I cannot truly express how thankful I am to them with a simple booking.com review. The venue is perfectly clean, has a very good location for the beach and the city that we regret we could not enjoy it more. Beyond everything else, the owners are great people. Please be kind and courteous to them if you choose to stay here. Once again, thank you very much Louis and Maritsa for all you did for my family while out stay in Rhodes. I hope to enjoy a longer vacation sometime in the future. Best wishes from the other side of the sea.❤️

  I've been to Rhodes several times, this is the best accommodation I've ever had. I like private accommodation, not hotels. If you like the feeling of privacy and comfort of home, Louis house is the right place for you. The house really looks like in the pictures. It is equipped with everything you need for a long stay. Each room has its own air conditioning. The beds are very comfortable, and the hygiene is at a high level. The yard is nicely decorated, and in front of the house there is free parking. The hosts are extremely friendly, always smiling and cheerful, ready to help you at any time very quickly. Our flight was much delayed. We arrived around 11 p.m. This was not a problem for the hosts. They offered to pick us up at the airport, we didn't need that, a rented car was waiting for us. But it's a gesture that immediately shows you how much Hosts care about their guests. And the accommodation was waiting for us dinner, wine, fruit, juice, water especially for the child, although it was not included in the price of accommodation. I've never experienced so much care and cordiality and kindness of the hosts. All praiseI would rent Louis house again to stay in Rhodes.
  
  What could be improved: It's a suggestion, not a complaint. In the double rooms, you could add a blackout curtain, because only that room does not have blinds.

  I recently had the pleasure of staying at this property in Rhodes, and I cannot recommend it highly enough. From the moment I arrived, the hospitality of the owners was unparalleled. They welcomed me warmly and had thoughtfully offered me some home cooked Greek food that made me feel instantly at home.
  
  Throughout my stay, the owners were incredibly helpful and attentive, always available whenever I needed assistance. Their genuine care and dedication to ensuring I had a perfect experience was evident in every interaction. One instance that truly stood out was when I found myself in a bind trying to get to the airport. Without hesitation, they offered me a lift, turning what could have been a stressful situation into a seamless and pleasant journey.
  
  The property itself was immaculate, beautifully decorated, and provided all the comforts I could ask for. It was the perfect base for exploring the beautiful island of Rhodes. The combination of a fantastic property and such gracious hosts made my stay unforgettable. If you are looking for a place to stay in Rhodes, this is absolutely the best choice!
  
  What could be improved: the Wi-Fi isn’t always reliable but you’re hardly indoors anyway.

• Zepp from Germany – 10 November 2024 (9/10)

  Gut ausgestattet und super Lage, um nach Rhodos Stadt zu laufen und die Insel mit dem Auto zu erkunden.
  Der host ist super freundlich!
  
  What could be improved: Leider nah an einer stark befahrenen Straße und daher laut.

• Heléna from Hungary – 25 September 2024 (10/10)

  A szállás szuper tiszta, ízlésesen berendezett tágas. A szállásadónk Rendkívüli ember csodálatos vendéglátós! Volt szerencsénk az édesanyával is találkozni nagyon kedves mosolygós hölgy, házi lekvárral kedveskedett ami isteni finom. Minden jól megközelíthető a part nagyon szép. Ilyen csodás szálláson még szebb a nyaralás. Mindent köszönünk!

• Al from Hungary – 26 August 2024 (10/10)

  Minden nagyon jó volt , a szállásadó meg a fogadtatás s a közeli közlekedési belföldi buszok amik időre erkezdtek néha pár késsesél
  
  What could be improved: egy picit zajos volt esténként a forgalmas utca miatt az autó zajától , de nem vészes
