Margaret Hotel 2 * (Rhodes) offers onlycontinental breakfast, which will cost six euros per day. In the mornings, a buffet is served in the restaurant, which also works on the pre-menu. However, many of our compatriots prefer to eat in nearby taverns and cafes, and also cook independently, buying food in a supermarket or in numerous shops that are in every region at every step. The rooms have utensils, plates, cups, spoons, forks, in short, everything you need to eat.
Judging by the reviews, the prices in the nearby taverns are quite democratic, so many of our compatriots went to eat outside the hotel grounds.

Among those of our compatriots who, forhis holiday stopped exactly on this option, very few people remained dissatisfied. Moreover, against the background of a fairly democratic price for a meager list of entertainment, few people paid attention. Basically, those who chose this particular hotel, traveled a lot around the island and returned to rooms only for overnight stays.
As for the service, then taking into account the categoryMargaret Hotel Russians rated it for a solid four. As for the food, the opinions are contradictory. Some say that breakfasts were very tasty and hearty, but there are those who think that for this price you can have a good dinner at one of the nearby taverns.
The biggest disadvantage of this hotel is ourcompatriots call the proximity of the airport. This, on the one hand, is a big plus due to a short transfer, but on the other - the noise from landing aircraft often prevents complete relaxation and rest.
The sea, judging by the reviews, is excellent: warm water, mild Mediterranean climate - all this contributes to rest, and the island with its ancient monuments, according to many, must be seen necessarily.
Nevertheless, even with all the mentioned shortcomings, most of our compatriots were satisfied with their stay at this hotel and plan to return here again.
