Better than expected
I wasn’t expecting a great deal from this hotel as it’s 3* cheap week away for me and my son but I have to say I was pleasantly surprised.
The room was basic (very small) but had everything you need, fridge, hairdryer nice big bed & a balcony, enough storage space and lots of hangers. The shower pressure was great. My only criticism of the accommodation is that shower curtains are dated now. Could easily make the bathroom into a wet room or at least have a shower screen instead.
The pool area was really nice, big pool and great pool bar. Tan is the bar man was super friendly and helpful, made great cocktails and the cook was lovely. My son is a picky eater and there was plenty on the menu for him, hot dogs, toasties, burgers, as well as salads, omelettes, giros, pizza etc.
Breakfast was also surprisingly fine. Section of breads and jams, chocolate spread, marmalade & honey , continental section, cereal section, pastries, and a sort of English section of scrambled eggs, fried eggs, boiled eggs and either bacon or Greek sausage alternative days. Great for a 3 star I thought.
The hotel itself self is very clean and the gardens are well cared for. The staff were amazing, friendly and very understanding of my son’s SEND needs. Room cleaned daily.
Location It is in a perfect position and really close to the beach. There are loads of restaurants and supermarkets right on your doorstep, you could eat for a fortnight and not eat in them all. There is a bus stop opposite hotel to Kos town. 2.5 euros in about 20 mins.
Stephanos at tigaki rentals rented us a car for the day to go around the island.
The beach at tigaki is lovely soft sand but it is windy there and so if there is a lot of wind the sea is rough and so why we hired a car and went to the east on the really windy days. Sun loungers are expensive but we found kings beach bar don’t charge if you eat and drink there. We do pay and go to Paron one day but it’s expensive unless you plan on staying all day.
Recommend going to Mylos for lunch on Lambi beach too.
Overall great stay for a cheap week away. Would recommend.

Great start unfortunate ending
Nice 3 star hotel right on strip bit dated in places rooms are spotlessly clean and ground's kept very well very quiet and relaxing place However the down side is there's only one draft beer. As we were on our way home we were asked to pay for safety box my wife did pay for this in cash but did not receive a receipt. I'm not hard up for £20 euro but it's annoying when you have already paid, so I paid again for it lesson learned always ask for receipt, don't give cash pay by card. We have since learned that this has happened before. The front of house staff were arguing in front of us not very professional, I do hope they read this as the last day of holiday was terrible and stressful .
Amazing relaxing holiday
Just leaving after an amazing 9 day stay. Location is wonderful as it is close to bars and restaurants and the beach. Lovely friendly relaxing atmosphere. Rooms are quite small but very clean and air con is wonderful. Pool bar fabulous with very reasonable food and drinks, Yanni who ran the pool bar was always happy and pleased to see us, lots of fun and laughter all day. We can't wait to return.
Fabulous
Tropical Sol is a lovely hotel It is in a brilliant location. Near the beach shops and bars. It is spotlessly clean and towels and linen changed regularly. Vasilika who is on reception is a lovely lady and can't do enough for you. Has a lovely pool and the pool bar is run by Terry and Yanni who are 2 lovely men and they make you feel welcome.. The food is very good too. Overall it is a lovely place
