The view from the rooms is so good that by itself the hotel is worth it. It's just such an unassumingly stunning view. Fully facing the sea, you can see Turkey, you can see the boats come and go...it's perfect. Not sure if all rooms have a view like the one I had, but if so, it's a 10/10 view. Add to it a very kind staff - especially the night manager, who helped me when the room next door sounded absolutely haunted. He entertained my weird story about hearing strangled elephant noises from the other room, even came upstairs with me and explained that it might just be a Greek elderly because his uncle sounded the same. He tried to find me a different room since they had some space, helped me move, and reshuffled a couple of bookings so I wouldn't have to move again. I'm sure it wasn't a great deal of work (super low season, many free rooms), but these little things really set a "normal" hotel stay from a great one. The breakfast selection was also very good, the facilities are fine, clean, and comfortable. No complaints and would recommend.

Amazing hotel with the most incredible view. Lovely, nicely decorated rooms, some with direct entrance to the pool. The food was delicious ( although more vegan options would be a bonus), tasty drinks and very friendly staff. Planning to return in October.

The hotel was an extremely pleasant surprise. It is located 200m from its own private beach, it has an exceptional breakfast - I don't think it is something you would want and not find - it has a gym equipped with what you need for a short period and the restaurant offers an extremely varied and very successful. I can say that I rented the car for nothing because I didn't have to leave the hotel. Of course, we tried other restaurants (a big plus for Metoxi Cafe, a family restaurant where you can have an amazing view), but we returned to the hotel's, which has everything we want. When we come back... we will definitely be here.

The Lango has a beautiful view of the beach at the front of the property,across the road. They have sun beds to relax and have a button to press to call for assistance like ordering food or drinks. They have a beautiful pool at the centre of their property with rooms around. So you’ll either end up with a pool view or a beach view room. We got the private pool room which allowed us to have a flooring breakfast and private swim time.

FAQs about hotels on Kos

A Cultural Crossroad

Birthplace of the father of medicine, Hippocrates, Kos is the 3rd largest island of the Dodecanese. Located in the south Aegean region, this green island has a temperate climate, palm tree-lined avenues, and crystalline blue waters, all accessible by bike.

Featuring a great selection of 5-star hotels and all inclusive resorts, Kos is a tourist and cultural gem with long hours of sunshine and intense nightlife. Kardamena is a popular resort for young holidaymakers, offering a large number of bars and nightclubs.

Founded in 366 BC, Kos Town is home of the imposing medieval Castle of the Knights of Saint John. The traditional village of Afsendiou is a stunning paradise with narrow alleys and spring waters. Another must-see is the picturesque village of Antimachia, with the Venetian castle and the original windmills.

Kefalos village is home of one of the most magnificent Kos beaches, as well as the iconic small island of Kastri. If you are travelling with kids, do not miss Tigaki, a long sandy beach with shallow waters and sun loungers. Savour fresh fish in Mastichari, while enjoying the majestic view of the port.

Booking.com provides everything from hotels and apartments to guest houses, including some near Kos Airport, the second closest airport to Bodrum.

We stayed at the hotel 4 adults for 4 nights. As soon as we arrived at the hotel, we realized that the level of service quality is the highest we have encountered. The entire hotel staff and the management led by Mr. Costa and Mrs. Paris made every effort to make our stay pleasant in the hotel and on the island of Kos in general. The breakfast is excellent, the restaurant in the hotel is of a very high standard - on the first evening the chef prepared a 6-course dinner that can easily compete with a Michelin restaurant. The rooms are very large and decorated in a modern design, a large TV, a huge bed and many treats. We were pleasantly surprised to receive every evening a handwritten note written by the management team in which they wish us a good night and a pleasant stay. The hotel pool is very large and clean, there are many sunbeds, clean towels and service from the hotel bar throughout the day. The reception staff ordered recommended restaurants for us every evening in the old town of Kos and hit our taste every time. The spa at the hotel is one of the best we have encountered and the price is absolutely fair. We will definitely return to the hotel for another stay. One and only issue for improvement: the beach adjacent to the hotel does not compare in level to the standards that the hotel adheres to.

I have to say a BIG thanks to the Kids Club team (amazing job from all of them, particularly Lilia) and the water sports team that are also treating the kids with a lot of kindness and responsibility.

Very modern contemporary accommodation on the beach front and close to the old town. Loved the soft cosy mattress. I was just passing through for a night and staff were extremely hospitable even prepared a breakfast pack for me take on my early departure to the airport. I loved the social atmosphere as karaoke was happening in the court yard at night and great beach club vibe by the pool during the day.

Excellent customer service, the food & drinks were exceptional & special thanks to the boy with the beard (sorry I don’t know his name) he looked after us daily & was a credit to the staff. The apartments were very central & directly on the beach, Kardamena has a lot that offer, great bars & restaurants. Hopefully we’ll be back next year. We had an amazing time. Thanks so much 😀

It's a very small town, there isn't much to see or do. You can pretty much walk in two directions. But Tigaki is close, there's a bit more variety of restaurants and bars and cafes. The beach in Marmari is perfect though! And it's very safe and quiet. I would recommend renting a car anyway, because there's not much else to do and you will be more flexible that way. The sunsets in Marmari are very beautiful!

Flight from ATH (Aegean Air) very good.

Flight from ATH (Aegean Air) very good. With luggage in-hand, we got in-line for a taxi to take us to lodging. Terrible experience. Must have been 35++ people in-line, A few taxis came initially. Wait was over 30 minutes. Standing in sun. It took a long time to get a taxi. Way to long. First impression of Kos, very poor. Then, our taxi driver could not find our lodging in the Kefalos area (think this was a rare event, as our lodging was NOT on the taxi drivers GPS display...???). Finally used Google Maps and that worked. Trip was off to poor start and never got better. Disappointed in Kos ground transportation. Have traveled a good number of the Greek Islands. This was the FIRST (Kos) that I would NOT return to.

Loved walking around in the city center and having lunch here during the day, but we mostly had dinner along the beach. Lots of things to see, many boat trips (3 Island Trip with the Oddysey and Nisyros trip highly recommended). Beach: We loved going to Tarzan and using their sunbeds. Also recommend renting a bike and touring for a day. Number 1 restaurant: The Chasapaki

Mastichari is lovely!

Mastichari is lovely! It is a chilled Greek village beside a beach with a small terminal for ferries to / from Kalymnos, and a bus stop that will get you to Kos town or the airport. There is a nice variety of tavernas for traditional Greek food, and a handful of bars. Prices in Mastichari are much cheaper than in Kos town! There are a selection of shops that sell a mixture of groceries, booze, and souvenirs. If you need a big supermarket, head up the hill out of the village and you will come to Constantinos, which has everything you need. There's also plenty of places to hire cars etc. The beach is right beside the village. It is very chilled. There are no noisy bars churning out loud music, or noisy motorised watersports. There are some sunbeds, but the beach is not dominated by them. Most of the holiday makers we saw were, like us, middle aged or older (this is not a criticism!). If you are younger and / or want a lively nightlife, this village may not be for you. Everything is fairly flat (unless you go up that big hill above the village), but you will need to tackle a step or two to get into shops and tavernas. The smaller hotels here will have stairs, not lifts, so do your research if accessibility is an issue for you.
