Kerkyra Island Hotel

I agree with previous reviews about the hotel being average. We were very disappointed on our arrival. We were put in a very unwelcoming room in the annexe that you get to by walking out of the hotel, past another, and then up two flights of steps to a very basic room, with a horrible outlook of a run down villa with a very overgrown and neglected garden. I’d emailed previously to ask that we are near facilities as my husband has mobility issues. It seems that Jet 2 guests are placed in the annexe. Others are placed in apartments that we were quoted as ‘private’ by the owners son, These are Green apartments, the ones about the restaurant/bar/reception are the Blue apartments. These are there titles. The son put us on to a jet 2 rep who said they weren’t aware my husband had mobility issues. Even though she confirmed she knew he had assistance at the airport?? She was no help whatsoever. We were not offered help with our cases, I had to struggle along the road, past another hotel, in the heavy rain and up two flights of stones steps. We were told we should have said something. My husband clearly had mobility issues! The facilities in the room are sparse. Very little cutlery/plates/cups. Literally 2 spoons, forks, knives. We didn’t cook in the apartment, you would be very limited with what you could do. The cost for drinks is expensive, the food during the day is reasonable, the menu after 7pm is pricey for the portion sizes. The walk to the village area is long and hilly at points. You do need a torch for an evening walk and cars do speed along there, it’s quite treacherous at times. Not that we do generally return to the same hotels, as we’d prefer to explore more places, but sadly we would not return to this hotel regardless. Highly recommend Fisherman’s Haunt restaurant just up the road, beautiful setting by the sea, delicious and tasty food. A good size mythos, not the small size the hotel sold at a cost, very reasonably priced. Friendly staff.

The Kerkyra Island Hotel met all our expectations and needs. Beautiful spotlessly clean boutique like feel hotel. We stayed in room 305 with a side sea view. The room was large with adequate facilities for self-catering if needed although we ate out most days. Spiros, Voula, Giannis and the housemaid/cook were very friendly and always greeted us with a smile and had time for a chat. Service in the bar and hotel restaurant was very good both at lunch times and evening. The food was excellent, with freshly grown salad. The pool area was spotless and the sun beds some of the most comfortable I have ever used. Although the hotel is slightly out of Messonghi itself it was only 15-20 minute walk to the main village and beach area. We caught the Green bus into Corfu town only 2 euros each which was a great bargain. Food in all the Taverna's was fabulous, our favourite was George and Elenas, which was just round the corner from the Hotel, although we did not have a bad meal in any of the Tavernas/Restaurants. All in all we had two weeks of complete relaxation. I would definitely recommend this hotel for a relaxing holiday.

This hotel is run by a family who are customer focussed without being intrusive and they are what makes this place special. The pool and sunbathing area are really lovely - quiet, comfortable and surrounded by nature. The food in their restaurant and, to be honest, all the surrounding restaurants was very good. The room (103 in our case) was basic and had no view from the balcony - other rooms did have some lovely views however. I wouldn't recommend it if you really want to self cater as there was barely enough equipment to make breakfast. However it was clean and comfortable and value for money. The air conditioner was noisy but it worked and was sorely needed at 35+ degrees. Our main disappointment was that the TV was set at a maximum volume which was not loud enough to hear without being 2 foot from it and having turned off anything that made a noise (the air con for one!!) It may not be a problem for most people but we like to take a few movies to watch before bed. Spiros insisted this was the law! The location is a 15 min brisk walk into the village along a typical narrow road with no pavements and no lighting at night so a torch is recommended. We didn't mind the walk but you do need to do it to get to the beach, buy supplies and go out anywhere except for the few restaurants near to the hotel. All in all, we enjoyed our stay and would recommend this hotel due to the friendly service, the pool area and the value for money. I believe we were in the annex set aside for Jet2 customers and other (possibly nicer and more expensive) rooms may be available. We had 3 star accommodation with 5 star service.

What a great little hotel. Staff are really friendly and helpful. Food is good to. There is a nice pool on the premises with ample sun beds. Messonghi is about 10-15 mins walk away. There is loads of good restaurants nearby to suit most people’s taste. Would recommend this hotel to anyone.

Just spent a week here with my partner and it was just what we needed. Beautifil hotel with clean rooms, a lovely pool and run by a family that couldn’t do enough to help ❤️. A nice stroll from a number of bars and tavernas and a lovely beach where we spent a few days. Would 100% recommend to anyone wanting to visit Corfu for a nice break

My wife and I have just returned from a week at the Kerkyra Island Hotel. Everything was perfect. Our self catering room was really large, modern and clean. The towels and bed sheets were changed three times and every room has a lovely balcony. There were always sunbeds available and they had such comfy mattresses on them. The pool area was really clean and the pool is a perfect size to swim in or just cool off. The food and drink was really excellent and well priced. We ate there quite often, especially the snack menu at lunchtime. There are a number of restaurants nearby or you can walk a bit further (10/15 min) into town. The owners are wonderful. Nothing is too much trouble. There is a bbq on a Saturday night which was fantastic. There is also a Greek show for entertainment. There is a large tv that has all the sports channels! A really great week. We will hopefully be back later in the year!
