Atrium Palace Thalasso Spa Resort and Villas

I don’t know where to start with this hotel! It is nothing short of exceptional. The hotel staff are a core element of this hotel’s experience. Thank you to Davida, Savas, Sotiris, and Spiros with whom we had great conversation with everyday at breakfast. Davida is exemplary at her job and really cares about the guests. The endless options for breakfast are just divine, you will eat like kings and queens at breakfast time! Gabriella on reception pretty much helped us plan our entire holiday with her fantastic suggestions. She was very caring and kind. Thanks Gabriella for suggesting to rent a car - it really made a difference to our holiday. I would recommend renting a car to anyone who stays here at Atrium Palace as it’s a little further down the island. Having a car really offers you more freedom to explore the island. The bar staff were also friendly and kind. Beatrice and Polina were two staff members that really stood out for us - thank you both for serving us our drinks with a smile. The hotel entertainment every night was something we always looked forward to. Anything from rock bands to Latin dancing! There’s a must-visit restaurant within walking distance of the hotel “Alli Fasi 1907”. This is owned by Tomas, the brother of hotel staff Lukas, who was also very friendly. The food in this restaurant was incredible! The best Greek food we tasted all holiday. As it happens we visited the local town Stegna and just happened to eat at the restaurant “To Kyma“ of which is owned by the brother of the manager Savas. I would highly recommend. We loved the family connections surrounding the hotel - it truly feels like you’re part of a community. Of course I have to mention the food at the hotel was super tasty! We simply tended to eat dinner out more often than in. The pool area in the hotel is fab, so many pools to choose from. We used the gym everyday which was great to keep up our usual gym routine while on holidays. Also the beach being literally 200m from the hotel was just fantastic! Overall I simply can not fault our stay here. From start to finish our entire stay was flawless. Can’t wait to visit here again!!

We have just returned from a weeks stay at the resort. We arrived on the day it reopened for the season on a B&B basis. It was spotless and the gardens immaculate. The service at breakfast at the start of our stay was great, staff so attentive but by the end when there were considerably more guests we had to chase them up for refills etc. Breakfast was extensive so much to choose from and choice for people with different dietary requirements. Hotel is ideally located with so many excellent restaurants within walking, we went to a different one each night. Beach is a short walk made up of gravel with plenty of sunbeds and a beach bar. The shower in our room was really powerful and always plenty of hot water. I did feel the bath was a bit high which you needed to step into which could be a problem for some, also no extraction fan so mirrors got steamed up. Thee beds were comfy although a bit short, we're 5ft 6 and our feet were off the end. Welcome basket of fruit and bottle of wine in the room. We did book in for the 1 hr cooking class which turned out to be just on Tzatiki, think they do a different one each week. We were crammed around the table shoulder to shoulder and we couldn't hear what the chef was saying. Bit disorganised and finished in 20 mins. We weren't offered anything to take the Tzatiki away that we'd made so it all went to waste. On the plus side we finished in time to do an aquacise class with a very enthusiastic entertainments guy. Would recommend the hotel and overall we really enjoyed our stay

A slightly late review; we stayed here at the start of August. Due to the summer fires the hotel was quiet but it slowly filled over the following 2 weeks. We had a lovely time. The rooms were spacious, well maintained and clean; hats off the the housekeeping team who did a great job. We ate in and out of the hotel - food was always good, but sometimes felt a bit repetitive. The restaurant team were great and thank you to the waitress who got it just right at breakfast every morning. The beach was clean, quiet, and relaxing and the beach bar team are very friendly and very good at keeping you topped up! We had a great time, so would like to say thank you and we hope to go back soon.

Was very happy with this hotel for a 5-night all inclusive stay in early October in 2023. Staff were attentive and the hotel was well groomed and cleaned. Food was great as well was the drink selection. Think my only complaint was the bathroom sink was incorrectly labelled for Hot and Cold!

It is more of a good 4* hotel. It is lacking personalised approach and something special or rememberable. We stayed in the last week of them being open this season and you could feel it. Staff- 4. Some very good and attentive. Some dismissive and arrogant. Lady in the morning was serving us with a terrible coffee. Only after 3rd day we realised we could have freshly made coffee not the one from a jar. Great service at Zen, Mesogeos and Asterias restaurants. Reception - average. We asked about a few things and raised some issue out but they were not that helpful. Pool service ok but average. Seems like they were waiting for a season to end. Service in a bar- lady with piercing very good and warm. That’s what you want at this rate hotel. Food- 4 , very inconsistent. Best steak my husband ate. Some of the dishes were top class. Amazing Zen Japanese restaurant. But some of the dishes in other restaurants not so good. Shrimps were a bit off and smelt funny, put me off. But beetroot soup, salmon and spaghetti very very nice. There were A la carte restaurants for lunch and dinner but buffet for breakfasts. Buffet was ok, I appreciated smoked salmon and cheese. But a chef serving omelettes wasn’t approachable. Lady at the breakfast was asking guest for good reviews. Again this was a bit forced and probably a reason for such a good reviews on tripadvisor or google. Don’t be fooled. Rooms- 3 we stayed in a double room with a sea view. Not much of a sea view, not worth paying extra for. Rooms as mentioned by others dated and not spacious. Not our taste, bathroom average with a shower over a bath.. Pools-cold and dated. But we were off season. We liked the beach. It is a pebble beach. Beach service was so so. Again they were waiting for a season to end so didn’t care much. A lot of items unavailable. No kids club, mini disco or entertainment during a day in last week of operating. Average evening entertainment. Nothing special to mention. Good shop, reasonable priced. Never used SPA so can’t say. Poor indoor swimming pool. That needs renovating. Tiles coming off, looks quite dirty. No lifeguard in any of the swimming pools or beach. Bear that in mind. Very, very clean hotel and rooms. Great house keeping. Location was ok. About 40 mins- 1h to the airport. Close to nice town Lindos. The rest is attractions are about 30mins -1h away by a car. Overall 4 star. We don’t get 5* reviews. We have been to a few 5* hotels and it is a good but it’s not an amazing hotel. Looks like a lot of 5* reviews were over the top.
