Saint George Palace Hotel

Worst experience ever. For couple of days we had only cold water when it was already cold outside. It made me sick. Then for whole day the electricity went off. Food is mostly the same the whole week. And quite cold. But the worst - bed bugs. When we told the receptionist the manager said well I don’t see it. Location is okay. It’s a village, not much to do, but honestly I do not recommend this hotel. The conditions are not sanitary.

I would give the hotel 3.5 stars. Our room was very basic, with the bare essentials like a fridge, T.V., hairdryer etc but this was fine. The room was also very clean. However, our shower was poor - the holder for the shower head was rusted, so came away from the wall a couple of times which could be frustrating. Alongside this, the showerhead was also similarly rusted/damaged so all of the water would come out of the side of the head. This isn't something we mentioned to the staff as it was bearable, but is a shame it hadn't been picked up prior to our stay. The bedroom had a lovely balcony overlooking the main pool and the air-conditioning in the room was great. Sheets/towels are changed every 3 days, which from a sustainability perspective is excellent. The food was okay - their was a good selection of foods to choose from, including salads, stuffed vegetables and plenty of meat/fish options also. The food was quite basic but was tasty, although at times was samey and I was ready for a change by the end of the week. It would be good if the foods could be labelled with allergens as my friend is gluten intolerant, although I'm completely understand that this is a small business so this likely isn't possible. I wasn't a huge fan of the ice-cream, and the wines weren't particularly nice, although the cocktails were very good as were the soft drinks options. We enjoyed the location - there is a beach just a short walk away from the hotel. There are plenty of local shops & restaurants by the beach also, a couple of which we tried and enjoyed. There aren't many bus connections available - there is one bus that goes to Corfu town (A7), that you need to pre-book tickets for at Alexandros Bikes which is by the beach and is €4 each way. There is another bus but I can't remember where this goes! There is also a sulphuric smell, particularly sitting in the outside seating area, however I don't think this is something the hotel can control and is likely due to the older plumbing on the island. The staff are also very friendly & willing to help - multiple times we asked the reception staff for help and the woman manning it was really helpful, answering all our questions and helping us navigate the buses & our trip to Aqualand! This made us feel very welcomed and did really come in handy when it came to getting out & about. Overall, I have to say this didn't feel like a 4 star hotel.

I would give this hotel 5 stars, the food is great as part of the all inclusive, the bartender Nico is the best 👍🏼😎 he gave us great tips for trips and mixed excellent drinks. Overall I would rate this place as perfect. We were very satisfied with it.

Honest opinion. Room small.with a frosted glass door on the bathroom (toilet). 2 staff members were brilliant they rest of they like they don't know you existed. One bar man was so rude he would just slam the drink down in front of you. Food was grim very basic but the worst thing is that nothing was hot, just warm at a push. Drinks- poor choice, watered down beer, cheap fizzy pop. Also drinks are only served in plastic cups day & night. We ending up going out for food & drink as the hotel was so bad. Our family came to join us on our holiday for birthday celebrations but had to spend 2 nights in a hotel 30 mins drive away, due to an issue with the rooms. In this time we saw others actually check in.

The hotel is in a good location, situated on a hill with a nice view, and it’s only about a 10-minute walk to the beach. However, there are several downsides that made our stay less enjoyable. One of the biggest issues is the very strong smell of sewage around the hotel, especially near the dining area. This was extremely unpleasant, particularly when eating. Transportation is also quite limited – the only bus connection goes directly to Corfu Town, so getting around without a car is difficult. The rooms are clean, but not very functional. The shower is very small with a curtain that constantly sticks to you, and there is no space to put toiletries. There are also no wardrobes or shelves in the room to store clothes, which makes longer stays inconvenient. The dining room is small and often overcrowded. Breakfasts are repetitive, and desserts were frequently missing. Drinks are served in single-use plastic cups, which is shocking and environmentally unfriendly. There is very poor mobile reception and the Wi-Fi does not reach the rooms, so staying connected is a challenge. On a positive note, the staff are kind and always willing to help.
