부동산 — Royal Rose
The Royal Rose feels like a cheerful, slightly faded classic – a three-star with a sun-bleached pink facade a block back from Rhodes Town’s main beach. The lobby smells of lilac air freshener and sea salt, with a tiny bar serving Nescafé during the day and ouzo after dark. Suitable for budget-conscious couples or solo travellers who want a clean, friendly base within a short walk of the medieval Old Town and Elli Beach. It’s unpretentious – what you see is what you get: a small pool, basic rooms with air conditioning, and staff who remember your room number after your first breakfast.
Rodos 연대기
Rhodes Town, founded in 408 BC by the ancient Greek city-states of Ialysos, Kamiros and Lindos, was laid out on a grid by architect Hippodamus. Under the Knights of St John (1309–1522), the fortified Old Town rose with the Palace of the Grand Master and cobbled Street of the Knights, now a UNESCO World Heritage site. The Ottomans added minarets and domes in the 16th century, and the Italians rebuilt the seafront in fascist-modern style during their 1912–1943 occupation. Today the city thrives as a ferry hub and package-tourism landmark, blending Crusader stone with beach bars and souvenir shops.
방문하기 가장 좋은 시간
Rodos 완전 가이드 →최고의 달
May and September give you 25–28 °C days, low humidity, and the sea warm enough for swimming without the July-August crush. October stays pleasant into mid-month with emptier sights.
Peak / Festival Surge 근처 오락거리
July and August are peak – average highs of 30°C, midday temps often hit 35+, and cruise ships crowd the Old Town. Hotel rates jump 40-60% over shoulder prices; the Rhodes International Festival (July–September) pulls larger concert crowds to the medieval moat.
Budget Shoulder 시즌
Late September and early October – rates drop 30%+, temperatures hold at 25–27°C, and the sea is still bath-warm. Fewer day-trippers from Turkey, and the Lindos acropolis is visitable without queueing.
날씨 & 포장
Summer heat on Rhodes is dry, but the afternoon meltemi wind can whip sand across the beach; bring a windbreaker or long-sleeved cotton shirt for beach evenings. Explicit packing rule: a reusable water flask – tap water is safe but hard, and shade is scarce after 11am.
City Briefing 근처 오락거리 — Rodos
- Rhodes Town’s main bus station (Mandrakio) is being refurbished until late 2026; services to Lindos and the west coast now depart from a temporary stop on Akti Miaouli, 200m east of the usual terminal.
- The Old Town’s Street of the Knights is undergoing partial repaving until August 2026 – some sections are closed weekdays 8am–3pm; use the parallel Sokratous street instead.
- New direct charter routes from Manchester, Berlin and Warsaw launched in May 2026, increasing Saturday arrivals – expect heavier breakfast queues at the Royal Rose on those mornings.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Royal Rose, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a high-floor room facing the pool or rear courtyard rather than the street. With no lift, a room on floor 2 or 3 gives a decent outlook and less passing foot traffic without a strenuous climb.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the ground floor near reception or the bar area; these can be noisy with footfall and early morning breakfast setup. Also avoid rooms facing Rodos' main street if the hotel is on a busy road.
Best views
The best views are likely from mid- to high-floor rooms at the front, overlooking the old town or the sea beyond, though check exact orientation on arrival.
Quietest floors
Floors 2 and 3 tend to be quietest, as they're above street-level noise and far from the reception and bar bustle.
🔊 Noise notes
Rodos town centre has street traffic, nightlife noise from bars and restaurants, and early morning deliveries. The hotel lacks double-glazing quality common in newer builds.
Insider tips
Arrive early to bag a room on floors 2-3 facing the courtyard – they're the quietest for sleeping. If you're a light sleeper, bring earplugs for potential street or bar noise from nearby spots like Orfanidou Street.
- 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

돈 & 통화
Get a travel card →Euro, EUR
Use ATMs for the best rates; avoid exchange bureaux at the airport and on tourist strips near Mandraki Harbour – they charge poor rates and high fees.
Visa and Mastercard are widely accepted in restaurants, shops and hotels; contactless is common for small amounts, but have cash for markets, bus tickets, and small tavernas.
Round up the bill at restaurants (5–10% is fine), leave small change for taxis, and a couple of euros for hotel cleaners – tipping is appreciated but not expected.
식사, 쇼핑 & 여행에 대한 예산
Cheap car hire →A freddo espresso or frappe at a local kafeneio – about €2.50–3.
A cheese or spinach pie from a bakery (tyropita or spanakopita) – around €3–4.
A portion of moussaka or souvlaki at a non-touristy taverna – main course about €9–12.
Look for souvlaki spots along Sofokleous and around the Old Town's backstreets, not the main harbour square – gyros and skewers go for €4–6.
Lidl, Masoutis and AB Vassilopoulos are the main chains in Rodos town; you'll find them on the ring road and in the Nea Agora area.
Check the high street shops on Papanikolaou and Ethnikis Antistaseos for affordable basics; the market stalls in the Old Town sell overpriced tourist tat, not local bargains.
A single bus ticket within Rodos town costs €1.20; the cheapest way from the airport is the public bus (line 23) to the main terminal for about €2.30.
Eat in the Old Town's side alleys away from the Cathedral square to halve prices. Buy bottled water and snacks at supermarkets, not mini-markets. Use the public bus to Faliraki or Lindos instead of expensive taxi tours.

Rodos 주요 관광지
💡 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.
💡 Bring bread for the peacocks – they'll follow you. It's a 20-minute walk from the centre or a cheap bus ride (€1.20).
