Spirit of the Knights

Top choice in Rhodes Town


With their thick rugs, dark woods, stained-glass windows and sense of tranquillity, the six opulent suites in this gorgeous boutique hotel ooze medieval atmosphere. Perfectly isolated down a side alley near the Old Town walls, it’s a true work of passion and vision. As well as a fragrant garden courtyard to read in and take breakfast, there’s also a library.
