The Property — Mythos Beach Resort
This is a solid three-star beachfront operation that doesn't pretend to be anything else. The lobby feels like a busy summer canteen — polished marble floors, a small bar, families checking in and out under a high ceiling. Its USP is direct access to a sand-and-shingle beach, a decent pool, and rates that won't scare you off. It suits couples who want a cheap base with sea views, and families who need a pool and nearby tavernas without resort extras.
Chronicles of Rodos
The city of Rhodes was founded in 408 BCE by the ancient Greeks as the island's capital, later becoming a major maritime power. Its medieval Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage site, was largely built by the Knights Hospitaller during their 14th–15th century occupation. The Ottomans added minarets and bathhouses after 1522, and the Italians early 20th-century neoclassical facades along the waterfront. Today the city is a living palimpsest of these eras, fiercely proud of its heritage while thriving on tourism and local commerce.
Best Time to Visit
Full Rodos guide →Best months
May and October for warm sun without the July–August crush. June is also good, with settled weather and long daylight.
Peak / festival surge
August is the absolute peak, driven by European school holidays and the Rhodes MedFest in late July/early August. Hotel prices double from June rates, and Mythos is often booked solid by March.
Budget shoulder season
May and late September offer solid discounts (30-40% off peak rates), still-poolable weather, and quieter beaches. April and November are cheaper still but cooler and riskier for swimming.
Weather & packing
Summers are hot and dry, but the meltemi wind can whip up strong afternoon gusts along the east coast. Pack a light windbreaker and sun protection, and always bring a reusable water bottle because tap water is safe but salty in coastal areas.
Live City Briefing — Rodos
- The city has extended its pedestrian zone on Sofokleous Street through the Old Town, making it easier to walk between archaeological sites and Mandraki Harbour.
- A new direct bus route from the resort area to Faliraki water park started June 2026, running every 30 minutes from the coastal road.
- Rodos municipality has banned single-use plastics on all beaches from 2026 — expect fines for littering, and bring your own reusable containers.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Mythos Beach Resort, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a sea-facing room on the second or third floor — these offer the best balance of view and quiet, as the lower ground floor rooms have limited outlook and higher foot traffic past the windows.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid ground-floor rooms at the back of the property: they face the service yard and bin storage area, and can get noise from early-morning deliveries. Also avoid rooms directly above the lobby bar (likely the first floor at the front) — music and chatter carry until late.
Best views
Sea-facing rooms on the second or third floor give a direct view over the beach and Aegean. Side-facing rooms (east or west) see the neighbouring hotels and car park.
Quietest floors
Second and third floors. Most rooms are arranged around a central courtyard, and upper floors buffer street noise while still being accessible via the lift.
🔊 Noise notes
The hotel is on the main coastal road into Rodos town, so street-facing ground-floor rooms get traffic noise from scooters and buses, especially in the morning. The courtyard pool area can be loud with children during the day, but quiets by evening.
Insider tips
1) Check in early (after 14:00) to grab a sea-facing upper floor room — these are popular and first-come, first-served despite bookings. 2) If you have a car, park in the hotel's free lot at the back (space is tight, so arrive by 10am to secure a spot). 3) Ask reception for a room with a balcony — roughly half have them, and they're worth it for the breeze. No in-room safes; use the front desk safe for valuables.
- 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

Money & Currency
Get a travel card →Euro, EUR
Use ATMs in central Rodos town for the best rates; avoid exchange bureaux at the airport and tourist spots as they charge high commissions and poor rates.
Visa/Mastercard contactless widely accepted in shops, restaurants, and hotels; smaller cafes and street stalls may only take cash, especially outside the main town.
Not obligatory but appreciated — round up the bill at restaurants (5-10% for good service), leave small change for taxi drivers, and tip hotel staff a few euros for extra service.
Eat, Shop & Travel on a Budget
Cheap car hire →Greek frappe or Freddo cappuccino at a local kafenio — around €3-4.
A souvlaki pita from a takeaway grill or a slice of cheese pie (tyropita) from a bakery — around €4-5.
A hearty moussaka or a grilled fish plate at a family-run taverna — around €10-12 for a main course.
The old town's backstreets and Mandraki harbour area have clusters of souvlaki and gyros joints, ideal for quick, cheap eats.
Lidl, AB Vasilopoulos, and Sklavenitis supermarkets are common across Rodos town and suburbs.
The large shopping street (Papagou and Orfanidou) in the new town has affordable chain stores like H&M, Zara, and local boutiques; market stalls in the old town sell cheap souvenirs and cotton items.
Budget way to get around: a single bus ticket within Rodos town costs €1.20. From the airport, take the public bus to the city centre (€2.50) instead of a taxi (around €30).
Eat where locals queue — tavernas away from tourist hotspots offer better value. Use bus passes if staying more than a few days (24h pass €5). Fill up a reusable water bottle at public fountains (free in the old town).
