We rested in Rhodes from July 24 to August 7, at the Rhodes Palladium Hotel. The meeting party is Millennium Company. In general, the overall impression of the rest is normal. It has its cons, but it also has its pros. As for the hotel, everything we expected was what we got. A good hotel, no different from many of the top five European resorts (thank God, there is something to compare with). Reading previous reviews, I dare to disagree with the fact that the food did not suit. There is enough of everything, you will not stay hungry, there are always several dishes on the buffet and fish and meat are sure to be on the menu. For breakfast, champagne, and quite decent, always dairy products and fresh pastries. If you eat in a restaurant at lunchtime, you can order the freshest seafood, for children there is always their favorite pizza. Who lacks diversity - only Turkey! We lived in a bungalow overlooking the sea. If anyone is going to go to this hotel, I strongly advise you to take the bungalow. There were cases when standard numbers went out onto the road, to be honest, not very... It is almost impossible to change. Yes, and if you get into rooms with a view of the pool or the sea in the main building with children, it’s also not very noisy because of the show, which starts around 10 pm. There is practically no animation, except for water aerobics, and football with volleyball, if a team is going. There is a constant wind on the island, so neither table tennis nor tennis are relevant, although there is everything for the game. The sea is super, clean and calm, there are enough sun loungers. But around the pool at 8 o'clock almost everything is already occupied, but, which is gratifying, neither our compatriots, the Russians behave much more modestly. If you want, you can always find a place. We were not very lucky, because the first week there were no taxis, there was a strike. We tried to get to the nearest village on foot, but this did not inspire us, it was far away and very hot even in the evening. But there was public transport, and for 2.20 euros you can get to Faleraki, or in the other direction to the city of Rhodes. This is according to interests - Faleraki discos and cafes with seafood, Rhodes - shops and excursions. As soon as the taxis started working, life on the island began to boil, and you can get anywhere - the price is from 7 to 20 euros, depending on where you go. It is very popular to rent a car, but this is for amateurs. In my opinion, there is nothing special to see on the island, so the most valuable thing there is the sea! We went to the island of Halki, on the recommendation of our guide, a waste of time and money. You will not see anything special there, except that you will be offered to visit a cafe where the owner is Georgians, where you can eat fresh lobsters, shrimp and try chacha.
Who was on other excursions, were with the same opinion - NO.
And, a good point, a Russian guy Zhenya works at the hotel, upon arrival he helps with the suitcases. Here is a special thanks to him. All questions have an answer, honestly and frankly, what and how. He should be an administrator.

We flew home without incident, everything was on time and what is nice, instead of the usual transfer, a taxi came for us, and we comfortably went to the airport. So, if you are planning to relax in this hotel, then peace and excellent beach holidays are guaranteed to you. There will be questions write, I will answer.
