Telhinis

Room - very tired looking, 1 plug that is attached to an extension lead and also had the fridge plugged into it. Fridge, worked ok but that is the extent of your self catering equipment. I had to borrow a bowl, mug and spoons from the restaurant. Luckily I took a travel kettle. We had the worst view from our balcony, basically a deserted bike shed. I have to say though that the beds were extremely comfy and I slept very well. Air con worked well too. Wifi - pretty good around the pool not so good in the rooms. Bathroom - urgently needs some work. We had to use a sponge to hold up the shower head, pretty much non existent shower screen so bathroom floods but they kindly give you a mop to clean up after yourself!!!! No plug in sink. Cleaners - very efficient, we had clean towels almost everyday. Bins were emptied every day. Clean bedding twice in 7 days. Pool - This is the star of show here, the pool is big and well maintained. Lots of sun beds although some are a big grubby. Lots of shade for those who seek it. The snack bar has a small but good menu and is very reasonably priced. Big freezer with ice lollies. Location - 10 minute walk to the busy areas and shops. Hotel is up hill so not for the faint hearted.

We had 2 family rooms and 1 double room and we were all very pleased with our rooms. The staff are so friendly and our room was cleaned every day. The WiFi is glitchy but you don’t come on holiday to be on screens all the time. Our kids loved the pool. Plenty of loungers and space in peak season. Breakfast was simple but nice and food from the pool bar was delicious and very reasonable in price. We loved our stay here and would highly recommend. Great location although crossing the fast road to the centre is a bit risky! Very happy overall!

Telhinis hotel is in a good location, not too far from any shops or the restaurants in Faliraki. The staff were very friendly and lovely during our stay, we cannot fault the staff. However, agreeing with previous reviews, the hotel itself is outdated. It is stuck in the 80s. Our fridge was dirty, the toilet leaked which caused a smell and there was only one plug socket in the entire room at the front door which made it difficult to use things such as hairdryers. Also, the wifi is free however it does not work inside the rooms. One positive is the aircon as this was included in the price. The pool was also large. It is clear that people revisit this hotel so it cannot all be bad, however, it was not what we expected at all. For the £700pp we paid this hotel was not worth it. Overall, if you are looking for a luxury getaway, spending time at the hotel, then I would not stay here. However, perhaps this is more suited for a cheap getaway where you will mostly be exploring the island.
