King Minos Hotel

Nice stay, despite the conditions of the surrounding, that is dirt roads, incomplete construction, “dirty” houses. The hotel staff is very polite, all speak English, the facilities are very clean. Only had breakfast, and it was average+.

I have already reviewed this hotel once before, in 2017, but as a family we liked it so much that we went back. And it definitely didn’t disappoint at all, so I wanted to leave another up to date review. There are two things that really ‘make’ this hotel. Firstly, the views it offers. Since the hotel is situated high up above the little town of Tolo (I reject the view of another reviewer describing it as ‘a dive’!), you get stunning views of the bay. I would definitely recommend that you book a sea view room for this reason. You will not regret it. There are a few hotels situated right on the beach in Tolo, which is also a great location, but in my opinion the higher situation of the King Minos is a better location because of the exceptional views. Secondly, the pool area. I love the music that plays all day, and the bar / restaurant area staff are lovely. It’s a great area to relax, swim and sunbathe. If you sit at one of the tables on the far side of the pool, you can also enjoy the views some more too. The rooms are comfortable and modern, with all the expected facilities and conveniences. The lobby area is also very spacious and has lots of armchairs and sofas to sit on if you wish. There’s also a gym if you like to work out and lots of parking spaces. For me, the only ever so light downside is the food. It’s perfectly fine, but not delicious. However, since we booked for breakfast only each day, this was fine as we were free to eat out every evening anyway. Overall, I have to say that I really do like the King Minos, and will definitely be back again in the future.

This is a terrific hotel , family run and very friendly staff . The room was a sea view one which I would recommend and was meticulously cleaned on a daily basis , great facilities ., lovely lounge area with lots of sofas and chairs . The pool and outside area is fabulous with a view to die for . The food at breakfast and dinner was really good with great variety and lots of choices , we stayed four nights and totally enjoyed it . Tolon itself is a bit of a dive , over built right to the edge of the water with no regard for planning regulations , there is no beauty here and the town is no advertisement for the Greek Tourist Board and only visit Tolon to stay at the excellent King Minos Hotel.
