Kos Aktis Art

The reception staff were lovely, super helpful. The room was exceptional with a hot tub outside but the bit that blows you away is how close you are to the sea and yachts The view left is of the old town and port. The sun is outside in the morning only but if you go to the sister hotel it’s sun for the day - they don’t have these breathtaking views but they have the swimming pool you can use foc Theres a smoke alarm or co2 alarm that’s at the head end of the bed and flashes a green light so throughout the night it lights up the room - an eye mask would’ve helped! The bed was super comfy and faces the view. The blinds are automatic and black out the light completely
The food for half board is the same limited menu every night - if you are veggie I would recommend just having breakfast there The hotel is situated a 5 minute walk into Kos old town where there’s lots of places to eat and drink. The Square is maybe 10 minutes strolling. Straight outside the hotel there’s a cycle path built into the pavement so it’s really wide and very child safe. Bike hire is around €5 a day and the bike path goes on into different beaches and view points

I was initually a bit concerned about staying in a modern hotel near the ferry port, but it turned out to be an excellent location and hotel. First of all, you are close enough to the ferry landings to walk but far enough not be bothered. Second, the hotel is really nicely designed with a comfortable lobby and very nice rooms. The seaviews are lovely and it's a joy to hang out on the room's balcony. At night you can sleep with the windows open enjoying the sea breezes and sounds of light waves. The breakfast is good and copious. The hotel is walking distance to most of the main sites and restaurants in Kos Town. We had a car to explore the island and while the hotel has no dedicated parking, there was plenty of free parking in the nearby streets.
