Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Alexander The Great Beach Hotel is often praised for its beautiful setting by the sea, complete with palm trees, offering stunning views, especially from balcony sea view rooms. The fully refurbished restaurant provides a superb breakfast with outdoor terrace seating, and the four on-site restaurants, including the Italian Garabaldi and Seven Orchids for Asian cuisine, receive high marks, though some guests have found the buffet food could be improved. The sunbed allocation system is a distinct plus, and the hotel is conveniently located near the harbor, perfect for exploring, but the beach access involves steep steps. Cabana rooms are generously sized, and the hotel maintains spotless cleanliness.

Fabulous Holiday!

friendly staff delicious food easy solution

This is a very nice hotel. The staff are amazingly friendly and clearly happy to work there. The food is delicious. I booked into the Pan Asian restaurant on my last night and ate one of the best meals I ever had. It was delicious!

The rooms facing the road lack a balcony. I had to ask for an upgrade. It was an easy solution, but the first room was dissapointing.

friendly staff advantageous location delicious food dated room worn furniture weak air conditioning

the staff were friendly. the location was advantageous (close to many facilities). the food was generally delicious, particularly the breakfast. i found a wide variety of options each morning.

our room felt somewhat dated. the furniture showed signs of wear. the air conditioning was not powerful enough. this made the room less comfortable during warmer parts of the day.

The hotel offered a sunbed allocation system. This removed the stress of claiming a spot early in the morning. The hotel has direct access to the beach. It made it easy to enjoy the sea.

My room's air conditioning was noisy. It was also poor when it came to cooling the room. The gym area looked small. It had a personal trainer only booked for a fee.

The breakfast menu was good. The white unsliced loaf stood out.

I was annoyed with the entertainment. The lady singers were dreadful. The sound quality was very poor, and it reminded me of a mating call. The connection between the guests and the All Stars wasn't great this year, a big disconnect existed.
