Hotel Description

So you’re thinking about Xenones Lindos – honestly, I get why people are drawn to this place. It’s tucked away near the police station (which sounds weird but actually makes it super easy to find when you’re wandering Lindos’ maze-like streets with luggage). The thing about this hotel is that it really gets the whole “authentic Greek island experience” thing right without feeling like it’s trying too hard.

The building itself has that classic Lindos white-washed look, but what I really appreciated was how they’ve managed to keep things quiet despite being right in the heart of everything. You know how some places in tourist towns can feel like you’re sleeping above a nightclub? Not here. The rooms – well, they’re exactly what you’d want after spending the day climbing up to the Acropolis or lounging on St. Paul’s Bay. Clean, comfortable, with those thick stone walls that actually keep things cool during the scorching afternoon hours. The 4-star rating feels about right – it’s not trying to be some luxury resort, but everything works and there’s genuine character to the place. I mean, you’re staying in a building that probably has more history than most entire towns back home.

What really sold me on the place was the staff’s local knowledge. They don’t just hand you a generic tourist map – they’ll tell you which tavernas the locals actually eat at (hint: not the ones right on the main drag), and more importantly, when to visit the Acropolis to avoid the cruise ship crowds. Speaking of crowds, staying here puts you in this perfect sweet spot where you can duck back to your room when the day-trippers get overwhelming, then emerge in the evening when Lindos transforms into this completely different, more intimate place. The narrow streets fill with the smell of grilled octopus and you can actually hear conversations instead of camera clicks. Parking can be a bit of a dance – you’ll need to leave your car at the edge of town since the old streets weren’t exactly designed for vehicles, but honestly, that’s half the charm of staying somewhere that’s been around since before cars existed. One thing I should mention – if you’re looking for a pool or beach right outside your door, this isn’t that kind of place. But Lindos Beach is literally a five-minute walk, and there’s something pretty magical about staying in the actual village rather than some resort complex outside of town.

Reviews

  • Steph from United Kingdom – 6 June 2025 (9/10)

    Location and views great.
    Big room, very clean and cleaned every day. Water and tea coffee in room which was great as were delayed.
    Great communication with host. Lovely bar area.

    What could be improved: Shower was very small and sprayed out of the curtain which was so close it was touching my skin.
    Could have done with a small set of drawers to put tshirts/shorts etc as only place available was the rail to hang things up.
    Managed ok though as left in packing cubes in the case.
    Only little things though. Made up for by the view.

  • Roberta from United States – 8 October 2024 (9/10)

    My stay here was the quintessential Greek memory. We thoroughly enjoyed chatting with Arthur as we sipped a glass of wine on the terrace while looking at the Acropolis as the sun set and the lights of Lindos town below came on. Highlight was when the Acropolis lights came on. My room was clean, quiet, bright, comfortable and had a view of the terrace and beyond. Great value for your money.

    What could be improved: Because no cars are allowed, you have to park and walk to the hotel. Just be mindful that you have to haul your luggage down a hill and then up the hill. My friend's room was a family room that was large but dark. There was no outlet near the double bed so she had to sit on the twin bed to use her computer.

    Communication was slow before we checked in. Wish they had a WhatsApp number.
