La proprietà — Thomas
The Thomas is a no-fuss 3-star just off Rhodes' new town beach strip. Whitewashed walls, a decent pool and a small bar keep it simple for budget-conscious couples and families who want sun and sea without frills. Standing in the lobby you get a clean, slightly dated 1990s feel, but the staff are efficient and the location is a five-minute walk from the sand.
Cronache di Rodos
Rhodes Town was founded in 408 BC by the ancient Greeks and grew into a major maritime power. The Knights Hospitaller fortified it in the 14th century, leaving a UNESCO-listed Old Town of cobbled streets and medieval ramparts. Italy ruled the island from 1912 to 1943, adding grand Fascist-era buildings along the waterfront. Today the city balances its Crusader past with a modern tourist economy, drawing history buffs and beachgoers in equal measure.
Il momento migliore per visitare
Guida completa di Rodos →I migliori mesi
May, June, and September offer warm 25–30°C days, low humidity, and fewer crowds than July–August. The sea is swimmable from late May, and Old Town lanes stay uncramped.
Peak / Festival Surge
July and August are peak season, with temperatures hitting 35°C and hotels near full capacity. The annual Medieval Rose Festival in June and the Rhodes International Film Festival in July drive bookings; prices at the Thomas can double versus June.
Stagione di spalla
April and October are the budget shoulder months. April sees 18–22°C and spring blooms, while October holds 24°C seas and 30% lower rates, though some tavernas close by mid-month.
Meteo e imballaggio
Rhodes experiences persistent northerly winds (meltemi) in July, which can chill evenings despite 35°C days. Pack a light jacket or pashmina for dinner outdoors, and always bring high-SPF sunscreen and a hat.
Briefing della città — Rodos
- The new Rhodes marina in the Mandraki harbour area opened late 2025, adding a yacht pier and a public promenade with cafes. Visitors can now walk from the Thomas via the beachfront path in about 15 minutes.
- City bus line 7 (from the bus station to Faliraki) has increased frequency to every 15 minutes in peak season, though drivers still insist on exact change in euros.
- The Old Town's main entrance at Eleftherias Gate is undergoing stonework repairs until October 2026; a temporary wooden walkway is in place, but expect 10-minute queues midday.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Thomas, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the second or third floor overlooking the courtyard (if available). These are high enough to avoid ground-floor street noise but don't rely on the lift, which is small and slow.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid ground-floor rooms facing Rodos town's main street—bars and scooters make them noisy until late. Also skip rooms next to the lift shaft on any floor; the lift clanks.
Best views
Rooms on the upper floors facing away from the main road may offer a glance of the old town rooftops or a sliver of sea in the distance, but most sides see adjacent buildings.
Quietest floors
Floors 2 and 3 are quietest—further from street level but still walkable via stairs if the lift breaks.
🔊 Noise notes
Rodos town centre means moped traffic, bar music until 1am, and early morning rubbish collection. Go for the courtyard side if possible.
Insider tips
1) Park in the municipal lot a block west—hotel has no parking. 2) Check in after 2pm to avoid queue; the reception desk is tiny.
- 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
