Grecotel Kos Imperial Thalasso

Really nice stay, couple of disappointing things was the food for dinner and lunch at the main buffet restaurant. As vegetarians the options were not great and repetitive. The staff at check in were not extremely helpful to tell you about the hotel and its amenities. Not explaining kids clubs or activities during the day or eve or even navigating us to where things where. Overall a very nice hotel, staff friendly and helpful when and very clean.

Very beautiful hotel , on the beach . Lovely clean pools . Amazing staff . Tasty food and drinks. Exceptional kids entertainment . The only problem is a smell coming from outside the hotel but the hotel is dealing with this issue . Check with the hotel before booking . Other than this , possibly one of the best in the world for families .

Overall we had a good stay at the Grecotel. Only downside: the beds were quite old and uncomfortable, but it seems they were in the process of changing those. When we complained about our bed, they came and installed a new one (which was much, much better) in very short time. Also, some of the decor in the rooms were fairly old, and the shower head looked like it had been there since 1976. These are things you don't expect from a 5 star resort. Negatives aside (yes, the hotel is a bit old, but otherwise ...): The outside looks beautiful and the gardens are really nicely kept. The hotel also has its own beach with plenty of sunbeds. It has a well equipped gym and also overall a nice feel to it. However, the surrounding area is pretty vast, so you will need a scooter or a bike to get into Kos town (about 4 km). However, there is a taverna right outside of the hotel, which we can highly recommend. Taverna Romeo. Romeo and his family are some of the nicest people we have met. Romeo himself is the friendliest and most attenative restaurant owner you could ever meet. Go there and you won't be dissapointed!

Grecotel is a BEAUTIFUL property! it has many pools varying for your needs. Its a kid-friendly hotel, but not designed exclusively for kids. Of note, like many other beaches on the island, this is a rocky beach, water shoes recommended! Also, if you do book on Hotels.com or a 3rd party site and don't opt in for all-inclusive, its worth exploring, as the hotel itself doesn't have much to offer since its situated away from most major towns.
