A compliment to the people at the front desk and at the bar, they were really friendly and helpful. the hotel all in all was not so bad but not up to 4.5 stars standard. The prize of the hotel are very high. They need to do some improvement. Like at the breakfast buffet and dinner buffet. The food quality was quite poor. the pool and the beach were a pretty nice.

Really lovely hotel in excellent location. Peaceful spot but east to get to a number of very good beachfront restaurants and Kos marina. About 30 minutes walk to town or safe cycle/scooter routes all along road. Staff cannot do enough for you and very friendly. Special mention to the beautiful Bengal cat who lives in the hotel and visited us in our balcony every day 😻

Hotel Platanista exceeded our expectations (Like it did 21 years ago when we were here the first time) . The hotel itself is stunning and very well maintained. Our rooms very very spacious and clean and offered everything we needed. All staff members are accomodating and paid attention to our needs. Especially Julia and Ria were very lovely The Center of Kos can be reached by a 30 minute walk or by Bike or Bus and offers some nice Sightseeing opportunities. All in all a wonderful vacation in an awesome Hotel

We had a great stay at the hotel. The staff was friendly and did the best to make us enjoy the offered services. At the restaurant there was a wide choice for breakfast and dinner, not always of a mediterranean cousine tough. The room was comfortable and daily cleaned, we appreciated it very much.

Couldn’t fault this hotel. From the staff to the amenities and cleanliness, everything was top notch. Felt very well looked after and any question we had was answered by the very friendly staff. I’m not normally one for the entertainment section at hotels, but I must admit that the entertainment here put a smile on my face. We walked most days to the old Kos Town, but the hotel will happily arrange a taxi if needs be, which we did in fact use for an evening to watch the sunset in Zia. Highly recommend this hotel for anyone wanting to visit Kos.

I can't fault the property. It's clean comfortable and a good selection of food. The drinks are expensive but that's expected of a hotel. The walk to the beach you have to be super careful, as the walk down from the hotel is very narrow and on that lane is a vehicle hire company and coaches and cars are up and down there every minute. You have to cross a major road to get to the pebbled beach, if you have kids it's mega dangerous. The beaches are man made with brought in sand and the walk into the sea is very bad as the beach is made of large stones. Wrong side of the island really if you have children.

Schöne Hotelanlage, große helle, gut isolierte Zimmer mit Balkon/Terrasse und immer frisch gemachten bequemen Betten (mit deutschem TV, leiser Klimaanlage und ebenerdiger Dusche), im Juli/August mit Animationsprogramm, reichhaltigem Buffet und eigenem Strandabschnitt in 2 Min. Laufnähe (kostenlose Liegen und Sonnenschirme), 2 große Pools und Poolbar. Die Frühstückszeit für Urlauber ist grenzwertig (7:30 bis 10:30 und man findet früh kaum einen Tisch, 6:30 bis 12:00 wäre besser), die Getränke (Flasche Wein 25 EUR, Cocktails 11 EUR) komplett überteuert. Der Pool ist nur von 10 bis 18 Uhr geöffnet, in Ruhe schwimmen Fehlanzeige. Die Hinweise (keine Liegen besetzen, Abendgarderobe) werden von den meisten Gästen ignoriert und vom Hotelpersonal nicht geahndet. Das Restaurant-Servicepersonal ist (bis auf wenige Ausnahmen) langsam bis unfreundlich - Tische bleiben ewig unabgeräumt, es fehlt Besteck, Getränke dauern ewig (extra, nicht im Preis enthalten). Es gibt zwar einen Kühlschrank aber keine Minibar, der kleine Kiosk im Hotel verkauft keine Getränke. Der Pool ist immer voll, der Strand liegt nicht direkt am Hotel (über eine Straße) und ist steinig (Einstiegshilfe über Sandsäcke). Der vorhandene Minigolf-, Tennis- und Volleyballplatz hat keinen Sonnenschutz und ist im Hochsommer eigentlich nicht bespielbar. Kos Stadt ist in ca 30 Min zu Fuß (10 Min Fahrrad) erreichbar, der lokale Bus ist unzuverlässig und Taxis im Sommer kaum verfügbar.

Disliked: Staff & service

Servizio non da 4 stelle

Purtroppo il sevizio non è stato all altezza delle aspettative di un 4 stelle anzi 4 stelle e mezzo come scritto all ingresso dell hotel. Abbiamo richiesto varie volte informazioni circa auto a noleggio e trasfer dal porto con largo anticipo piu di un mese ma non abbiamo mai ricevuto risposta. Alla fine ci siamo dovuti arrangiare chiedendo al porto e perdendo molto tempo. Inoltre al check in e al check out la nostra prenotazione era stata scambiata con un altra chiedendoci meta della spesa che invece era gia stata pagata. Quindi un servizio non all altezza di quello che ci aspettavamo. Infine non consigliato per coppie perche struttura enorme e piena di famiglie con bambini piccoli quindi molto rumorosa sia giorno che notte.
