NEW BOUTIQUE HOTEL OPENS OPENS IN RHODES

Rhodes Town continues to be ever more upmarket following the opening of The Avalon Boutique Hotel. This stylish property combines modern facilities and services set within historic surroundings.

Located just a stones throw from the Grand Masters Palace on the Street of the Knights in Rhodes Medieval Town, the hotel has been rebuilt paying particular attention to detail and respect to its historic roots. It offers guests comfort, luxury, relaxation and the authentic experience of living in a medieval building.

Accommodation is provided in six individually designed suites each tastefully created in keeping with the style of the Medieval Town. The traditional rooms benefit from many modern luxuries including a Jacuzzi, stereo system, air conditioning and plasma television. The hotel also has Internet connections.

The hotel’s prime location makes it an ideal choice for short breaks. There are many attractions within easy reach including the Grand Masters Palace. Aside from that Rhodes Town has excellent shopping with an eclectic mix of traditional and modern shops. Away from the main square there are some amazing restaurants tucked away along the side streets, many offering locally caught seafood.

Prices start from £400 for seven nights based on two people sharing half board accommodation. For more information and to make a reservation visit www.rhodesguide.com/travelcentre and for more information about Rhodes island visit www.rodosisland.gr
