The staff was friendly and helpful. The location is quite good, with easy access to everything we needed. Breakfast was served buffet-style with plenty of options. We used a rental car during our stay and were always able to find parking nearby. It’s not available on every corner, so you do need to look a bit—but we always managed to find a spot. Overall, a pleasant and comfortable stay.

One thing we didn’t like was the presence of mosquitoes in the room. No matter how careful we were, there were always one or two buzzing around. The room had a balcony door with a mosquito net, which we used the first night, and after that, we kept the doors completely closed and didn’t even go out onto the terrace. Still, new mosquitoes somehow kept appearing. We suspect they were coming in through the main door, which opens into a hallway directly connected to the pool area. This might not bother everyone, but for someone with strong reactions to mosquito bites, it could be a significant issue.

Friendly greeting on arrival, layout breakfast and pool times explained before being shown to Esperia for check in. Basement room but nicely presented, a good size and the terrace was more spacious than a balcony and quite private. Great value for money, when you consider you have the excellent pool and extensive breakfast of the Esperia included. It was a shame I only had one night.

The shower opening directly onto the bedroom was fine for me on my own but I wouldn't like it if sharing.

The location was excellent. For the price thisnos very good value. Simple, clean. Bed was comfy. A/C quiet. Water pressure is good. Small balcony. Small new fridge. For a place to drop in, drop off and budget base to explore rhodes it was ideal.

The sound insulation is not great. The bathroom is very small. For solo this is fine, but for couple may be a bit of a squeeze. The street is a popular place so don't expect quiet till well after midnight.

Check-in takes place at the Esperia City hotel. The receptionists are polite. Upon arrival, we found out that for some reason we were upgraded, so our room was not in the Pearl hotel, but in the Esperia City hotel. I was happy with the surprise, because we were better off this way, instead of a ground floor room, we got an upstairs room with a view in a better hotel. The room was tidy and clean, we were also satisfied with the daily cleaning. The air conditioning can be used freely, it works well, sometimes a little too strongly. The hotel also has 2 elevators, so access to the rooms is generally ensured without waiting. The breakfast is very plentiful, with hot and cold dishes and sweets. Each time you could choose from at least 4 types of fruit. Breakfast can also be eaten by the pool. The breakfast staff is very nice and cheerful. The location of the hotel is very good, the beach is 5 minutes away and the bus station is 15 minutes away on foot. The neighborhood is well-stocked, with plenty of restaurants and supermarkets to choose from. It happened that in the evening the loud music and the noise of people watching the game could be heard from the bar opposite, but it was not disturbing for me, because when I'm tired I close my eyes and sleep. This may not be ideal for families with small children. I was completely satisfied with everything during my stay at the hotel.

The beds and pillows were very comfortable I slept very well. Fantastic choice at breakfast with everything you could possibly need. Great friendly staff, the reception staff couldn’t do enough for you. The location is absolutely fantastic, short walks to the beach, shops and restaurants. Very enjoyable stay and I will definitely stay here on my next visit to Rhodes.

The staff is what made my stay. Everyone, bar tenders, receptionists, cleaning ladies, were so nice and kind! Also, the breakfast deserves mention: simple, but rich. There was a lot of food every day, and the cakes and Rhodian specials were very good. The hotel is located in the new town, less than 10 min away from the medieval city

I had a problem with my shower, since the tray was leaking. I told the reception, but nothing changed. Some silicon would have done, for the time being.

Room was small but all you needed, air-conditioning was great, balcony was lovely, all the staff were amazing! So helpful and so kind. The breakfast had a great selection of food: sweet, savoury, healthy, full English type, greek delicacies. The pool was brilliant, great loungers, clean, lovely place to relax.

Nothing, I would happily come back here.

Chose this place mainly from price/value considerations and had quite modest expectations, but the hotel turned out to be a nice surprise. Much more appealing and comfortable room than 2 star rating might suggest. Very decent breakfast, also nicely available until sensibly late (11am). Room was really quiet despite all the tavernas below. Good location and at reasonable walking distance to the old town and bus station (20/15 mins).

Bed was quite comfy and of "typical" size - meaning too short, if you are 1.8m or taller.

Breakfast was really good. Hotel staff was friendly. Comfortable room, really good value for the money and good for short stays. I would recommend and stay again if I go to Rhodes.

Bathroom was small but ok. Hairdryer was stopping after a few minutes of being used and you had to wait some minutes to continue. Room was very hot at night but there is aircondition, if you are ok by sleeping under AC all night.

*** Pearl City was still closed for the low season so they transferred my booking to the nearby Esperia City Hotel, part of the same company, so this review is for the Esperia *** Nice hotel for an off-seasons visit to Rhodes especially if you are focused on sight-seeing rather than beach holidays. The hotel is in the middle of the "new" city centre and there are plenty of shops/restaurants nearby, making it a very convenient choice. I had an angle room on the second floor, with two very nice small balconies overlooking the square in front of the hotel and the nearby church. The room itself was of average size but two people with two luggages may find it a bit on the small side. Shower water pressure is very good and there is air conditioning in the room, which I didn't need to use given the very pleasant temperature in early May which I think is the best season for visiting if you're just interested in sight-seeing, hiking or do any kind of non-beach tourism. Staff was helpful and the breakfast was good with both sweet and savoury options. When I'm in Greece all I ask for is Greek yoghurt and honey and that was available, so thumbs up :) Elli beach (both sides) is a couple of minutes away should you desire for a day or more of rest under the sun!

The bathroom was really, really tiny. Sound proofing is really not sufficient especially from outside - even with windows closed, you can clearly hear loud music coming from nearby bars/pubs and I expect much more noise until late coming from the street during the high season. Bring earplugs.
