Lindos Royal Resort

Essen war gut

Falsches Zimmer kommentarlos (downgrade) gegeben, erst Tags darauf wurde das gebuchte Zimmer zur Verfügung gestellt. 1 Tag zu früh von der Rezeption ausgecheckt, obwohl über booking.com Zimmer 1 Nacht länger gebucht war, danach erfolgte eine halbstündige Diskussion über die Reservierung, obwohl die Buchungsbestätigung vorlag. Nicht funktionierende Toilette Rezeptionpersonal sehr unfreundlich Schmutzige Tische im Restaurant Schimmel im Zimmer Poolzimmer: Liegen extrem schmutzig, Poolrand komplett schimmlig Duschkopf fällt fast von der Decke

As others have stated didn't get room i booked, although I emailed hotel prior arrival to confirm. Arrived late at night, went to reception but told to come back next day. Lady at reception confirmed my e mail but said room booking was admin error! Eventually moved to a swim up room. No hairdryer. Reception advised not all rooms have hairdryers, yet they claim to be a 5 star hotel. I was told to buy one from the supermarket! Food lukewarm, drinks awful. Ended up eating in Lindos most nights. At checkout charged for bottle of wine we already paid for. I asked to see copy of their receipt, it wasn't my signature but no apology from reception.

Wir hatten einen wunderbaren Aufenthalt im Lindos Royal Resort. Alles war sehr gepflegt, das Personal freundlich und die Atmosphäre entspannend. Wir kommen gerne wieder 😊

My friend and I stayed at this hotel as it was highly recommended by Tui. In reality it was extremely poor, rundown & dirty. Our room was basic but clean, the balcony was filthy. We immediately spoke to the Receptionist and requested another room but they said this wasn't possible. The rest of the hotel was dirty with broken tiles and a lot of basic maintenance and cleaning required. The drinks from the bar were disgusting. Wine poured from a pump and dispensed into paper cups. How Tui rate this hotel 5 stars is a joke and a con.

My fiancé and I were looking forward to the holiday of a lifetime, but instead we ended up with a nightmare straight out of Fawlty Towers. It honestly got to the point where you couldn’t make it up. We arrived late at night and were taken to “our” room. It was beautiful and at first we were delighted — until we stepped onto the balcony and noticed a very obvious lack of a swim-up pool. We had paid a significant amount extra for this, both as a treat and for health reasons. We walked back up the steep hill to the main hotel to report it, only to be told there were no managers available overnight — which already felt ridiculous. Tired from travelling, we made an appointment to return in the morning. After what turned out to be our one decent night’s sleep, we headed to reception and were met with several other couples already waiting with various complaints. We waited over an hour for our turn. The manager was apologetic and offered us two alternative rooms to choose from. Luckily, I picked the one that faced the sun — but it was sheer luck. Then began the non-stop disasters. We were plagued by mosquitoes and bitten relentlessly. The fridge didn’t work, the outside area was dirty, and the walk down to our section was full of broken tiles, trip hazards, and unfinished, damaged areas. A few days in, our neighbour and I noticed that the pool outside our rooms seemed to be draining. We reported it and it appeared to stop — only to wake up the next morning to find it almost empty. This was on top of mould, filthy tiles, and more damage. I have many photos of all of this. To be fair, the food was decent and the servers were friendly and pleasant. The drinks were a bit grim but bearable. I became too ill to use any of the larger pools, but my partner said they were okay. However, there were many drainage and plumbing issues throughout the hotel, including our shower smelling like a urinal and the apartment opposite us having a sewage leak from upstairs. The problems became a running joke between us and other guests, but the truth is they really did spoil what was meant to be a relaxing break after a very hard few months. The island itself is beautiful and well worth visiting — just not the Royal Lindos. At best, it’s a 3-star hotel, nowhere near the 5-star standard we were promised and expecting. Many areas looked dirty, uncared for, and badly in need of a proper upgrade. Our room and bed were fortunately clean, but I heard horror stories from other guests who weren’t as lucky. I honestly can’t emphasise this enough: expect a 3-star experience and you’ll be fine, but 5-star it absolutely is NOT.

Paid for a certain room type and was placed in another. When I queried it at reception I was told I had been “upgraded”. I think not, we ended up changing rooms twice and stayed in the third room offered only because it had storage space. This hotel is falling apart. Only one electric socket in the room is not five star, electric cables hanging out of the wall is not five star, no plugs in the sink is not five star. Very limited storage space, cupboard doors won’t full open, furniture falling apart, no shampoo in holder, door key card didn’t work, no water in the fridge, WiFi keeps dropping out. I could go on and on and on. This hotel would be hard pressed to deserve even two stars, and I told the manager to her face. She looked me straight in the eyes and said it was five stars. The annoying thing is, because they label it “5 stars” you have to pay five star tourist tax which is €15 per night, so that is an additional €210 to be paid in cash on arrival. Whereas, if it were correctly labelled as a two star hotel it would be an additional €7 per night. Loud BOOM BOOM music plays all day by the poolside and in the restaurants. One night we all went for a themed dinner in one of the restaurants, we couldn’t hear ourselves talking. We asked politely if they could lower the music so we could hear each other, we were ignored. The restaurant food is only ever luke warm, the alcoholic drinks are awful. There were eight of us in our group and we were all in agreement when we said we would never return. The only good thing I can say about this place is that the poolside bar girls at the evening bar were really nice and pleasant. Otherwise I would warn everyone to steer well away from this expensive two star hotel masqurading as a five star hotel.

The open buffet, the beach, the staff, the massage place, the night shows and the cats!

Rooms could've been cleaner. They don't use a vacuum cleaner, only sweep. I didn't like the sign of "do not feed the cats" at the bus stop. The reception could give information about the bus stops and hours before you ask for it.
