Hotel Albatros

We booked our holiday through tui who didn’t tell us any of the extras that would need paying for - sunbeds around the pool are 9€ a day! Which when we was there for 2 weeks is a large added cost just to sit down! A few days into our holiday the cleaners stole from us and all we got told was no they wouldn't we never got an apology or anything Our bathroom would flood every time we had a shower Drinks menu for all inclusive is very limited no diet options for soft drinks only wine, beer and brandy The food was okay just a standard buffet no complaints until we got food poisoning and was stuck in bed for 2 days The bistro had nice food and staff there were lovely The jacuzzi was cold never heated up we eventually fount out you had to ask for it to be turned on but was never warm and as soon as you stepped out of it they would turn it off Pool was dirty had dead bugs floating around everywhere and I never saw one member of staff clean it at one point I saw a woman scooping them all out with her child’s toy net Overall awful holiday would think twice before booking this hotel!

We were offered this hotel by Tui when the hotel we had booked informed our travel agent that it was closing early. We booked an all inclusive package. The staff were lovely, very helpful and friendly. The hotel was clean and the room comfortable. The bathroom needed updating as it was impossible not to flood the floor when showering as the doors did not seal but there was plenty of hot water which was good. Be aware that the inclusive package only included ouzo and local brandy, beer and wine in their alcoholic drinks package, white & black coffee, and soft drinks did not include diet options. We were aware that there was a charge for sunbeds around the pool and on the beach but the daily rate for two was a bit more than we expected. Food was tasty but choice was quite limited so a fussy eater might struggle. The bistro bar, where we spent most of our time, provided seating and was right near the beach. The sea was easy to access and looked safe for swimming. The bistro bar was open to the public and there was a noticable difference between how all inclusive guests and paying guests were treated. Paying guests were served and were offered different crockery, with the niceties of crisps or nuts or biscuits with their drinks but not for armband wearers. We got our own drinks and there were no little extras. Athough the waiters were always polite, we have to admit to feeling like second class citizens despite in reality, having actually paid in advance. We were the only British people there and they very much catered for the German holiday market. There was no Tui rep ( which we did know in advance) so no offers of tours or sightseeing but there were places within walking distance that offered those and the locals were very friendly and helpful. The hotel is not somewhere that is going to provide children's entertainment but it might suit those who are happy to entertain their own children and enjoy a quiet beach holiday. It wasn't quite what we have been used to when booking an all inclusive holiday but as older people we enjoyed the quiet and being able to sit by the sea and watch the world go by!

I would only recommend this hotel for retirees. There are no organized activities offered by the hotel, and there's nothing for children to play with or keep them occupied. They can either be in the water or in their rooms. The rooms are generally okay, though the cleaner didn't reach our room even once in three days. The bathroom door can only be closed from the inside due to warping, and there’s a persistent sewer smell in the room because there's no odor trap in the shower drain. Every sunbed on the hotel and beach grounds costs 5 euros, but if you want two beds, it’s only 9 euros. Of course, benches and chairs are only available at the public bar where anyone can enter. So, a 10-day stay adds up to nearly 100 euros in extra costs. Despite these issues, the staff is friendly, but they must adhere to hotel policies. The food selection is small, but mostly tasty.

The hotel staff are very friendly and helpful. The rooms was nice size and the balcony was also a nice size with enough room for a table and two chairs, there was also a pull out washing line, which was very handy the Hotel is located in nice and peaceful area, close to the beach and not near a busy road. The only thing that let it down was the food and the fact they had several countries flags flying outside the entrance and the English Union Jack was upside down Just one bit of advice if you have not been to Corfu before. This idnt to do with Hotel .Please be aware that all the trips I went on didn't tell us about the hidden charges. Unlike any other country where I've been on a trip , they do not provide any food or drink.also if you have Mobility problems please check with the tour people.also please remember to bring your Euros as you get a better exchange rate in England

4th visit to this lovely family run hotel. All the team are wonderful, friendly and welcome us back warmly each time. A relaxing holiday was needed and it did it disappoint. Will definitely not be our last visit. Food is lovely and Yannis makes the best cocktails!!!

Another fantastic stay at the Albatross. Staff very attentive and friendly, food great and hotel is very clean. All rooms have a sea view and it's in a great location on the beach. Would not hesitate to recommend this hotel, we love it there !!
