Michelangelo Resort

"Whoever awarded 4* to this hotel must have poor taste. It is quite clean with daily visits to the room and alternating towel and sheet change. The rooms would benefit from upgrading, and some still have kitchenettes in place but nothing connected, and whilst the sink has running water, there is no plug. The location is a little further out than some would like, but it is quiet as well as being a 20 minute walk to the beautiful Avlaki bay with a great taverna (better than the hotel food). The negatives are: upon arrival you have to pay the tourist tax in cash, very surprising for 4*; you cannot run a room tab, and everything has to be paid upon order via the pool/restaurant bar; there are no pool towels supplied or available to rent (4*?) ; we arrived late and to find our room we had a choice of either negotiating steps onto the road, or via a dark path with a lot of steps, before getting to the block, we then had either a flight of steps down to the block, or a steep vehicle ramp, so anyone with a mobility issue should avoid this place. The entertainment leaves a lot to be desired, the Greek night would have been better had my wife and I done it rather than the old couple who did. Whilst this “resort” gave a choice of dining options, all inclusive should be avoided, as the food whilst edible is not the best, and even breakfast is a gamble due to once a week omelet or pancakes is not what 4* is about."

"A positive hotel review for Michelangelo Resort Hotel. Excellent choice for anyone travelling solo, with a family, children, teenagers or for the business traveller. Overall good value for money. The location was quiet and ideal. Perfect walking distance to Kassiopi village and local restaurants, a supermarket, petrol station and a beautiful nearby beach. From check-in to check-out, everything went smoothly. The staff on hand 24/7 were professional, friendly and very helpful. The rooms were clean, comfortable, peaceful and pleasant. Bathrooms sizeable and plentiful hot water. Excellent WIFI throughout the hotel areas. Clean swimming pools and various activities including a tennis court on a maintained site. Large restaurant with very good varied choice of foods and drinks, also a bar. Good facilities and car parking area. A well-run hotel for long or short stays."

"We were relocated to the Michelangelo Hotel as the hotel we had booked had some type of issue, which meant we couldn’t stay. To be honest the Michelangelo is of very poor standard, the staff look constantly miserable, the food is inedible, we ate out every evening and the cleanliness of the room was non existent! Towels and bedding changed once in the week, the drain in the bathroom constantly overflowed, we used towels to mop up the excess water to avoid any slips or falls and reported this to the hotel reception numerous occasions without any response. Having said all that the location and views were good but I would certainly not be a returning guest"
