Irene Palace Beach Resort

Upon arriving late at night we were greeted by a friendly elderly gentleman on reception who could not have helped us any more than he did. We then went to the bar where we were greeted by Panos, again an incredible credit to your company. He made our stay amazing. The girls on reception understood all our queries and were first class in their genuine care for our well being. The restaurant staff were also second to none, they were genuinely helpful and kept the restaurant area extremely clean. The staff on the pool bar could not have been any more friendly, at the end of just our first week they knew our drinks order and were pouring it as we approached the bar! We cannot thank all the staff enough for making our stay an extremely enjoyable one 😃 xxxx

This hotel is great! I was there with my school for twelve days and the days was amazing!! They have mini aquapark there and pool which is great! They have a lot of food and very good dessert. This resort is for everyone who like chilling and vibing.

I would like to thank the pool bar team for their excellent service! A special mention goes to the three staff members who were always friendly, helpful, and greeted every guest with a smile. Their positive attitude and professionalism truly made the experience more enjoyable.

Thoroughly enjoyed this hotel. Rooms good. Pool clean. Friendly staff. Beach close and accessible. Food varied and tasty. Nikos, the restaurant manager tasty too! Happy to return to this resort. Local shops and supermarkets within easy reach

Travelled as a family. Grandparents, daughter, son in law & 3 children. First the positives: the grounds, beach and location cannot be faulted. It was a lovely experience. We arrived a day after season opening and it showed…..not quite up and ready. The first evening in the buffet was terrible. Honestly, the food was awful and we all thought it was going to be a very long week. We needn’t have worried…the menu got better and better and in my opinion was a very good AI. The drinks were even better…..expertly mixed and very palatable! Now for the not quite so positives: rooms were average…..you have to request tea & coffee facilities from reception. This was supplied in the form of 2 green tea bags (yuk), no sugar, no spoons and no milk. Toiletries were supplied but never replenished…..fridge in the room but absolutely nothing in it. Not even a bottle of water! This is the first 4 * hotel we’ve ever stayed in where you are requested to pay a deposit AND a payment for the pool towels. The deposit I can understand but a €4 charge on top of that is just a money grabbing scheme. For our party of 7, this would have resulted in an extra charge of €28 PLUS the deposit! My advice would be is to pack your own. There is also €15 per day charge for 2 sunbeds & umbrella on the beach…..again, ridiculously expensive for a supposedly 4* hotel and something which should be included in the cost of your AI holiday. Air Con is charged extra €35 per week until end of May. The town of Kolymbia was hugely disappointing. There were a few nice souvenir shops but apart from that it was very depressing. Completely run down and full of closed businesses etc. I appreciate it was early in the season but……nice holiday but let down by the above.

As you walk into reception it looks lovely. But as soon as you step out of the elevator it was like a horror movie. The carpet and corridors to the rooms is disgusting and appalling, not even a 2 star hotel, decor is something like from the 70s. It was a disappointment straight away, I wanted to leave. The bedroom with sofa bed, not even a child could sleep on that sofa bed, there was no mattress it would touch the rock bottom. There is a kettle in the room but no mugs, coffee or tea!? It makes no sense to me. Walls are paper thin, could hear all conversations next door. Can’t wait to be back home and get a good night sleep. Have to pay for air con before May! All inclusive is not worth it, drinks are cheap and not much option. Food is very repetitive, bread for breakfast so hard. Outside is ok, not many nice sunbeds so people rush to reserve. There are plenty other ones plastic sunbeds in the garden though. Hotel was very full and not enough sitting inside in the evening, cold to be outside. Entertainment area very old. The only good thing is staff is very friendly and is a kids friendly hotel. No more than a three star hotel. A few shops and restaurants and few minutes away. Chapel and harbour was lovely. Unfortunately I’m not coming back and it does not match the pictures on the website
