In this article you will find a comprehensive and complete analysis of the hotel Alia Mare Resort (Greece, Rhodes). The hotel on its sign has four stars. But, of course, this alone does not guarantee an adequate rest, even in the countries of the European Union. Therefore, to describe the hotel, we relied on the reviews of those tourists who visited there recently - in the summer and in the velvet season of two thousand and sixteen. And, although their opinion can also be very subjective, it nevertheless reflects reality more than rainbow leaflets.
First, let's say who this hotel is suitable for. It will be comfortable for those tourists who crave a quiet and measured rest. There is animation in the hotel, but you will have to go to the nearby resort towns for an incendiary nightlife. But the sea is ten steps away, and the restaurant's terrace hangs over the beach. The main contingent of vacationers at the hotel is young people, couples and senior citizens from Central European countries.

Despite the fact that the hotel is not in the center of the village, this place cannot be called a wilderness. Around the same resort hotels, and within walking distance there are two supermarkets, taverns and many small shops with souvenirs and goods for a beach holiday.

Guest opinions on rooms at Alia Mare Resort
Almost every review mentions the notorious glass wall separating the bedroom from the toilet. At first, she bothered some tourists. But then it turned out that the glass was completely opaque, even when the light was on in the bathroom. The guests were pleased that the air conditioner was not dependent on an electronic key pulled out of the slot. That is, it was possible to come from the heat to a rather chilled room. Maids were cleaned every day: towels were changed and new hygiene items were put in. And fresh linens were laid twice a week. Guests loved the spacious, furnished balconies. Recommendations for choosing a room: do not skimp on the "sea view" and ask for a room on the upper floors. Although the sound insulation is good here, people are sitting late at the bar on the basement level. In general, tourists gave the rooms and their service four points out of five possible.
