Rodon Hotel

This is a tough one. I stayed at Rodon hotel for 2 nights in June 2024. The hotel claims to be 3 star. I would accept that - but only barely. Let’s start with the good things: 1. Service: First of all the staff was friendly. They helped me with my booking, were smiling all the time and were very attentive to the guests. One lady brought me a bottle of ice cold water without me even asking for it. Good job staff! Good service is where it all starts. 2. The pool: The pool was very nice. It was quite large and had a comfortable temperature - not a given in all hotels. There were enough chairs for everyone - but that might depend on the season. 3. Location: It’s located around 10 minutes drive from the old town so quite easy to get to with scooter or taxi. 4. View: The view was very nice, overlooking the city and the mountains. I don’t have that many bad things to say, but the one I do have would potentially be a deal breaker: The rooms. According to ChatGPT this hotel was built in the 90’s. I am having great trouble believing that. It seems very worn down and rough around the edges. The rooms look like they were built in the 1960’s, and what surprised me the most was the lack of basic power outlets. I’m not kidding - there were two outlets - the fridge was connected to one and the tv was connected to the other. I had to disconnect both to charge my phone and power bank. I have stayed in 100’s of hotels, and this is the first time I have seen a lack of power outlets. Also, the aircondition took a long time to cool the room down, and did not have a strong cooling effect. The beds and furniture also seemed to be from the 1960’s. The breakfast was very basic - definitely nothing special. All in all, I would say this hotel is very basic, but if you are ok with older rooms and facilities, it gets the job done. Would I stay here again? Maybe, but it would be because of the staff and the pool - nothing else. I paid around 100 EUR per night.

Personnel pas très aimable ,petit déjeuner limiter et machine à café en panne pendant 2 jours, en attendant café pas bon aussi clair que la mer .des chiens qui aboient du soir au matin . Point positif très belle piscine avec belle vue,chambre correct .parking privé .

Un hôtel tout particulièrement accueillant et au calme car situé à 3,2 km à pied du port vénitien (centre de la vieille ville). Cet établissement possède un vaste parking privé et gratuit, planté d’oliviers, très pratique pour garer une voiture et éviter la circulation du centre de la ville. Le Personnel est très compétent et aimable. L’hôtel est d’une propreté irréprochable. Les chambres sont confortables et bien agencées, avec balcon donnant sur la piscine et le jardin. Il est possible de demander une bouilloire électrique à l’accueil pour la chambre qui n’en est pas dotée. Excellents petits-déjeuners qui peuvent être pris en salle ou en extérieur. Le buffet est varié. Agréable jardin, avec piscine entourée de transats. Afin de se rendre au centre-ville, le bus n° 11 s’arrête à proximité de l’hôtel, toutes les 20 mn en semaine. Le week-end, il y a beaucoup moins de passages, mieux vaut prendre un taxi, le prix étant de 6 à 7 euros la course. Pour 2 personnes, il est presque plus intéressant de prendre un taxi, en déterminant le prix de la course au départ.

L’arrivée dans un parking qui est rempli d’oliviers nous amène sur un hôtel tout en longueur qui entoure sa double piscine. Un personnel attentionné sans être dérangeant, un bon petit déjeuner, des femmes de chambre discrètes, une réception accueillante, bravo et merci à vous tous nous avons passé un excellent séjour grâce à vous.🥰🇫🇷
