Kristina´s Rooms

We stumbled across Kristinas rooms whilst wandering through the quiet back streets of Rhodes old town. We stopped for lunch in the beautiful courtyard & were served beautiful plates of food. The calamari was outstanding. Excellent value. Highly recommend.

I booked this place the day before I left Sitia Crete. I had ferry tickets from Sitia to Rhodes and hoped to get to Marmaris Turkey from Rhodes City. I wanted to stay in the old town and picked out Khristinas' place from the reviews here--so happy that I did. Booking only the day before I was worried about transport from the ferry port--but there he was--Kristinas's husband--I apparently misheard his name, so he will only be called husband--meaning no disrespect--he got me to the hotel within minutes. And oh my, what a beautiful courtyard to have some food and beer--also an upper deck and gorgeous balconies--I am old with a bad back and bad knees and at first I was concerned about stairs--but like everything else the attention to detail is astonishing--places to grab are located perfectly. I was only there 2 nights--I did spend 6 hours touring the old city which was fun--but the time at Kristina's enjoying the lovely facility was the highlight. Oh and thanks as well to her 2 sons who waited on me and booked and printed out a ferry ticket the next day to Marmaris. I was again timely, easily (and I must add, economically) transported by husband to the port. Also, I had a lovely conversation the last evening with Kristina about her family (as I understand it Husband is responsible for all the beautiful plants) and the challenges they have faced running a family run hotel during global financial crisis--the last being the pandemic.

Beautiful quiet place for a drink or snack in a calm part of the old town. Lovely courtyard and sun terrace. Very nice house wine which is served with a bowl of nuts. Friendly staff and soft music, very relaxing. Strongly recommended for an aperitif (most probably also for a meal, but I didn’t try this).
