Corfu Holiday Palace

Stayed here for 2 nights. Disappointed to say the least. There are far better in same location for the same price. Pool was dirty. Gym equipment broken, probably one of the worst hotels gyms ive been too. Cleaners start early so noisy with furniture being pulled around. Aircon/heat unit did not work Bar is overpriced. 50 euros extra for hour later check out. I approached reception staff with all of this and they were not interested...very unhelpful. Positives...the door guy very helpful. Breakfast selection was amazing 👏 However tje

The hotel was very old and not well maintained. The room had an od smell. You could hear planes landing at all hours, which is to be expected around Kanoni but it's still important to mention it. The staff was nice. The breakfast was very good and quite big. The beach of the hotel was also very nice. But all in all definitely not a 5 star hotel due to the old and unmaintained condition. It should be renovated soon.

What an unforgettable experience!, this hotel couldn't be better situated if it tried. The rooms although slightly dated, are clean and very comfortable. We stayed in two sea facing rooms at the left hand side of the hotel and although you can hear the planes (ever so slightly) it made for the most magnificent sight. The food was scrumptious every meal time there was a vast variety in buffet style to cater for all requirements, and the tastes were beautiful. We specifically enjoyed the chefs avocado salad and when it was not out, the restaurant manager Spiro would make a request and ensure we had some on our table. The staff go above and beyond in this hotel, they are warm, welcoming and very helpful. We enjoyed our 10 days here so much so that we will be planning a trip here again in the future. Huge thank you to all the staff for making our experience a holiday we will cherish forever!.

Had a wonderful 3 night stay a couple of days back. The hotel offers a lot of amenities that are not highlighted in the website or reviews. Apart from a stunning sea view, the hotel offered a main pool access to all the guests. Few rooms have a private shared pool and the villas have complete private pools. There's a wellness and spa center, a golf course and a tennis court that the hotel must consider advertising, as they came in as a surprise to us. The location is just perfect. 10 mins drive from the airport, the hotel has its own private beach area with a bar, which is convenient so as to not travel to a beach and fetch drinks. The rooms could be a little well furnished and modernized, hence the one less star. 9/10 recommend.

Have just come back from a lovely stay at Corfu Holiday Palace! We stayed for 6 nights and first of all were pleasantly surprised that on our late arrival from the airport, staff had saved some cold salad for us and taken to our room for us to eat when we got there. An example of one of the thoughtful touches at the hotel. All of the staff were so so lovely. The reception staff were super helpful and assisted with all our queries and the chambermaids and security were also cheery and wanted to say hello. The hotel offers a chauffeur service and I think the lady who drove us twice was called Dina and she was great. When we went to the port she waited for us to ensure we were getting on the correct ferry to Paxos. We paid extra for a sea view and I’m so glad we did. Our room had a beautiful view of the sea and was on the lower floor so had the added benefit of a balcony and a grass area with private sun loungers. We were quite near the bar but music stopped by 1am every night and the soundproofing was quite good anyway. We did not find the noise from the planes too intrusive and you get used to it after a night and sleep through although I can’t speak for the other side of the hotel. The room itself was probably the only thing that wasn’t quite 5 star. It was starting to show its age a little in terms of furnishing and bathroom a bit shabby for example shower could be mounted on the wall so you don’t need to hold it. However the room had everything we needed, a free safe, toiletries etc. TV was quite old but we barely used it. If you put the sign on your door for your room to be made up each day then maids will provide bottled water but sadly not new tea bags each day. The food in the buffet restaurant was great! We are two vegetarians and often are restricted on holiday but there was so much choice for us!! Lots of lovely pastas, curries, moussaka, pies, veggies and more I can’t remember. Plus a lovely salad and desert selection daily. Breakfast a little more repetitive but again a great selection of hot and cold and plenty of sweet treats. Our server was Charles who was so attentive and lovely to chat with he improved our meals even more. Alcohol is really reasonably priced in the restaurant and the main bar. We spent a couple of nights in there as cocktails were approx €10 each and the drink of the day even cheaper. There was some light entertainment too which we enjoyed. Location wise the hotel was good for us. We enjoyed the private beach and pool and managed to get a sun lounger when we needed. The beach isn’t 100% private as can be accessed by public but we didn’t see many people doing this. It is walking distance to the flight viewing area and monastery/ where you catch boat to mouse island. We also walked to mon repos park but a further trek. Make sure to also walk to monastery of the Virgin Mary which is a real hidden gem. There is a very convenient bus stop right outside the hotel the 2a which takes you into old town and runs until about 11.30pm. Buy tickets from the mini mart over the road for cheaper than on the bus I think €1.20. The Aqualand transfer service also stops here. Overall we had a brilliant stay here and would definitely recommend.
