Kris Mari

Hotel location is perfect for beaches,bars & restaurants. Room was basic but decent size & mini fridge available. However the room/ bathroom wasn't particularly clean & air-conditioning not effective at all despite having to pay extra for it. The main disappointment for us was the swimming pool. Very dirty! Leaves feathers & bird poo floating on it everyday & not cleaned off by staff. Steps into pool were dirty & had green mould in corners & drain holes around side had black mould. Very disappointing experience overall !

Poor quality hotel imo, was recommended but I certainly wouldn’t. On the surface of things it’s budget accommodation but by the time you’ve added the safe €6pn and air con €9pn you might as well stay somewhere decent and more up market. My upgraded air on did not reduce the temperature in the room, I had to leave the patio windows open or die, and got bitten of course as a result by those pesky mosquitos. At least I was alive in the morning. On complaining to staff, was a shrug of the shoulders, I asked for a refund of air con, and still waiting, I doubt they will do this. Very bad introduction to Kos.

Quite nice hotel, we were breakfast only and it was adequate, cold meat, cheese, fruit, tomato's cucumber olives etc tea/coffee fruit juice all for breakfast. The hotel is not suitable for anyone who cannot use stairs easily as there are stairs down to 2 sets of toilets (for use when in bar the location of this toilet is back though bar down to reception and either lift or stairs down to toilet and also another set for use at pool bar had to walk the full length of pool and down a set of stairs) there are also stairs down to breakfast / pool area. There are some ramps in hotel that help. While there the hotel had a private party that looked like it was for 100+ people and a live band all downstairs round the pool and breakfast room and upstairs bar. We were not allowed in these areas at that time and the very loud band played until 1am then the place emptied and all the pool beds were returned to their places as were all the dining/breakfast tables the noise was very loud and carried on till after 2am. Dont get me wrong was a nice, very clean small hotel on the outskirts of Kardamena there are plenty places to eat within 5 minutes of hotel and a couple of shops. If going back would certainly think about staying there again. The beds were comfy and pillows fine. Sheets / towels changed regularly and cleaners in rooms nearly every day. Staff and cleaners were excellent and very nice and approachable. Lovely pool area.

10 more days in beautiful Kardemena, at the Kris Mari As always, warm, welcoming staff, spotlessly clean and exceptional value. Fantastic breakfast and snack bar, lots of choice and quality. We had a friend join us from the US and they were blown away with the greek welcome and service 😀 Massive thank you to Minas, Rene, George, Kostas Lisa and Andi, you look after me so well! See you in October
