We chose this hotel based on the description on their website etc. We were very disappointed in the bedrooms. The description said “light and airy” - they were dark and dingy, so much so that we nicknamed them the ‘caves’. There was a kettle in the room but no cups, tea or coffee. There was a fridge. The rooms were cleaned daily, with fresh towels and linen. WiFi was almost impossible to use. The view from the pool and breakfast area was absolutely stunning! And some of the rooms also had a fantastic view. The pool was lovely, although not really suitable for children or non-swimmers as it is very deep. There was also no jacuzzi on poolside as stated which was very disappointing. The pool bar was never open - we did enquire and was told that the staff are there and we just had to ask. Seems like there is a lack of staff as there was only ever 2/3 main staff there the whole week. The breakfast was adequate, and we were advised to get down early otherwise it would all be gone. We ended up taking our own coffee, milk and butter down to breakfast as the coffee machine was broken, and the milk tasted off. They also seemed to have a wasp problem, which is not their fault, but it made eating breakfast a bit difficult as you were constantly worried that you were going to be stung. You definitely need a car if staying here as there is nowhere to eat or shops to buy things from within walking distance. Nydri was a great place to go to eat and shop which was a 10 minute drive away. The beaches on the island were all fabulous but an umbrella for shade is needed. Would definitely return to Lefkas but NOT to Red Tower Hotel. Think it needs better management and some updating.
