The Property — Filerimos Village
At Filerimos Village, you walk into a low-rise complex of whitewashed buildings set among olive and cypress trees. It feels calm and grown-up: the pool is the focal point, and the bar serves drinks without fuss. The USP is the peaceful location on the west coast, about 10 minutes’ drive from Rhodes Old Town, plus free shuttle to the beach at Ixia. It suits couples and older travellers who want a clean, quiet base with a pool and a decent breakfast, not nightlife or resort flash.
Chronicles of Rodos
Rhodes city was founded in 408 BC by the combined city-states of Ialysos, Kamiros, and Lindos. Its medieval Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage site, was built by the Knights of St John from 1309, with the Palace of the Grand Master and the cobbled Street of the Knights as highlights. The city’s architecture layers Hellenistic, Byzantine, Ottoman, and Italian colonial styles; the Italians added wide boulevards and public buildings in the 1920s. Today, Rhodes is a busy ferry and cruise port, with a summer population swollen by tourists drawn to its beaches, fortress walls, and ancient ruins. The modern cultural identity is proudly Greek but pragmatically touristic, balancing heritage with bars, restaurants, and souvenir shops.

Weather & packing
Rhodes gets a strong, dry northwesterly wind (the meltemi) in July, which can feel sharp on the west coast beaches. Pack a light windbreaker or pashmina for evening walks, and always bring a sunhat and high-SPF sunscreen.

Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Filerimos Village, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request upper floors, 2nd or 3rd, facing east away from the main road. Quieter in the evenings and catch the morning sun.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid ground-floor rooms near the reception or pool area: foot traffic, chair scraping, and early-morning cleaning noise are common.
Best views
East-facing rooms on upper floors offer a glimpse of the sea through pine trees and a view over the hotel gardens, not just the car park.
Quietest floors
2nd and 3rd floors — well above street level, less footfall from lobby, and no lift rumble (if lift stops at these floors).
🔊 Noise notes
Street noise from the main Rodos–Filerimos road at front; pool pump hum audible from some ground-floor rooms; occasional late-night chatter from the pool bar.
Insider tips
1) Request a high-floor east-facing room at booking — most are duplex-style and quieter. 2) If you're driving, the free car park fills up by 8pm in July, so check in early or ask staff for overflow parking behind the supermarket next door.
- 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
