Hersonissos Palace

Good hotel in convenient location

From start to finish our trip was fabulous. We were greeted with some fresh lemonade by a lovely member of staff. Hotel is gorgeous through out, with lots of food options. The pools and pool bar meant you could stay in the hotel all day if wanted. The great location was close to all of the lively night life. Yet still far away enough to not hear anything at night. The beach bar is lovely, and a lovely member of staff called Andreas was incredible throughout. Beach chairs cost daily but they do on all plots. The room was gorgeous, better than imagined. Couldn’t have been better!! I would really recommend, and would definitely go back! Gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous!

Hotel a 2 star not 5 . Only thing good about this hotel is refurbished rooms , indoor pool and gym , disgusting , dirty dark and a real mess . Food very repetitive , cheap and nasty , paper cups in rooms not proper cups , do not look at the pictures they show I will show you proper photos , pool area round rear and tennis court totally mess , I’d say avoid at all cost . Rude reception staff , even the jet to rep was a waste of time , just made excuses .

This was supposed to be our honeymoon hotel. We arrived late (5am) and were held to fill out a form with our details and other information. We explained it was our honeymoon but the receptionist couldn't care less. They didn't do anything to make our stay special although we later found out that that would be an impossible task in this hotel. Definitely it is not by any standards a 5 star hotel (more like a 2 star or 3 star European hotel)... Given that there was no water in the rooms, in one of the hottest weeks of the year, we went to the reception to find out where we could get some water in an ALL INCLUSIVE regime. They told us to go the nearby supermarket or wait until 10 o'clock to ask for it in the pool bar. The schedule of the pools are nonsense. The outdoor swimming pool only opens at 10 am and sunbeds need to be "reserved" by you sitting there from 9am. They close early (at 6pm) despite the great weather until 8.30pm. The indoor swimming pool is rather small and simply exists. The air conditioned was locked at a certain temperature and power which had no impact what so ever in the temperature of the room (other than the noise). The room was okay and cleaning was good. Regarding food, the hotel offers some local and international dishes and they were mainly good. Snacks between lunch and dinner are just some low quality cookies, industrial cakes and ice-creams. Cocktails were pre-made and either too sugary or too watery. The staff from the restaurant is in general kind, the ones from the reception should work more on their customer support and kindness. The beach is still some 300 metres from the hotel and it is rather small. In the beach bar (while they serve food), you are only allowed drinks in the AI scheme. The bar has a nice view and it is close to shops and restaurants. Overall, we feel that we had a bad experience and that the quality-price is not worth it. Would definitely not return there and encourage people to search for other alternatives in the area (it's full of hotels and for sure better ones)!
