Chroniques de Rodos
Rodos, the largest of the Dodecanese islands, has a rich history dating back to the 5th century BC, with the city being founded by the Dorians. The island's strategic location made it a prized possession for various empires, including the Knights of St John, who left their mark on the city's architecture with the impressive Palace of the Grand Master. Today, Rodos is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, with its well-preserved medieval town and vibrant cultural scene, featuring a mix of Greek, Turkish, and Italian influences. Visitors can explore the city's narrow streets, visit the Acropolis of Rhodes, and enjoy the local cuisine, which includes fresh seafood and traditional Greek dishes. The city's cultural identity is a unique blend of its history, with numerous festivals and events taking place throughout the year, showcasing its music, dance, and art.
Meilleur moment pour visiter
Guide complet de Rodos →Meilleurs mois
The best months to visit Rodos are May, June, and September, when the weather is warm and sunny, with average highs of 25-28°C, and the crowds are manageable, making it ideal for exploring the city and its beaches. These months offer a great balance of good weather and affordable prices, with the hotel rates being lower than during the peak summer months.
Peak / Festival surge
The peak month is July, with the hotel prices increasing by up to 50% due to the high demand, and the city hosting various festivals and events, such as the Rhodes Festival, which takes place in July and August, featuring music, dance, and theatre performances. The peak season is busy, with many tourists flocking to the island to enjoy the beaches, water sports, and cultural events.
La saison des épaules
The best budget shoulder months are April and October, when the weather is still mild, with average highs of 20-22°C, and the crowds are smaller, resulting in discounts of up to 30% on hotel rates. These months are ideal for visitors who want to explore the city's historical sites, enjoy the local cuisine, and take part in outdoor activities, such as hiking and cycling, without the peak season prices.
Météo & Emballage
Rodos has a Mediterranean climate, with hot summers and mild winters, and a unique climate quirk is the meltemi wind, which blows from the north during the summer months, making the temperatures feel cooler. When packing for your trip, make sure to include light clothing, sunscreen, and a light jacket for the evenings, as well as a windbreaker or a light sweater for the meltemi wind, which can make the temperatures feel cooler, especially in the evenings.
Briefing de la ville — Rodos

The city's public transport system has been improved, with new bus routes and schedules, making it easier for visitors to get around the city and explore its surroundings.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to George Studios, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request upper floors (3rd or 4th) facing the rear courtyard rather than the street — quieter and get afternoon light away from Ioanni Metaxa's traffic hum. A corner room on the top floor (4th) also reduces neighbour noise from the corridor and lift shaft.
Rooms to avoid
Ground-floor rooms directly off the lobby — can pick up lobby chatter and lift comings and goings. Also avoid rooms facing Ioanni Metaxa Street on floors 1 and 2; street noise from buses and scooters is real until late evening.
Best views
Rooms on the courtyard side (request 'back of hotel' or 'rear') look onto the quieter inner block and get decent daylight. Front-facing rooms glimpse the street and sea glimpsed between buildings, but trade off for noise — only worth it if you're a light sleeper who doesn't mind traffic.
Quietest floors
Floors 3 and 4 — far enough from street level to mute traffic, and the lift serves all floors so you're not stuck carrying bags. Floor 4 also has fewer neighbours above.
🔊 Noise notes
Ioanni Metaxa is a main road connecting Rhodes town with the airport — expect motorbikes, taxis, and delivery vans from breakfast through late evening. The lift motor is audible on floors next to the shaft; avoid room 301 if it's labelled adjacent to lift. Weekend nights see revellers walking back from bars on nearby streets.
Insider tips
1. Book the €5/night public car park 100m away instead of the hotel's €10 spot — it's a 2-minute walk and saves you €35 across a week. 2. Check-in early (around 2pm) to secure a courtyard-facing room; the front desk will often honour written requests if you arrive before the lunchtime rush.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Principales attractions à Rodos
💡 Come at dawn or dusk for photos without crowds. The lanterns look magical after sunset, and the architecture is best seen without souvenir stalls in the way.
💡 Go early morning before 09:00 for photos without crowds. The nearby Jewish Quarter has fewer tourists.
💡 Walk it at dusk when the street lamps glow and most tourists have left. Look for the carved coats of arms above each inn doorway.
💡 Sunset from the pier is excellent. Bring water shoes if you want to wade. The fish market nearby is lively at 08:00.
💡 Best light for photos is just before sunset. Grab a cheap souvlaki from a harbour-side kiosk and sit on the rocks near the windmills.
💡 Start at the Liberty Gate end; the path is mostly flat and takes about 40 minutes. Good for early morning.
💡 Climb at sunset for clear views over the bay and modern city. No ticket needed.
