Oktober Downtown Boutique Hotel stands on 28th October Street in Neochori, the modern district of Rhodes Town, a short distance from the Old Town. It is a compact hotel with a terrace, a garden, a library, a bar, a coffee shop and a restaurant, and a seasonal pool. Rooms come with a stocked minibar, a safe, a kettle and a rainfall shower, which is more than many hotels at this price offer.
Location and getting around
The hotel is in the lively new town, among cafes, bakeries and shops, and the walls of the Old Town are a short walk away. Mandraki harbour and the beaches along the north coast are also within reach. The hotel rents bicycles and can organise tour and ticket help, and a round-trip airport shuttle is available for a fee per room. The 24-hour front desk and concierge make it easy to arrange taxis for Lindos or the west coast.
The rooms
The hotel offers double rooms with a balcony and city view, superior rooms overlooking the pool and street-view doubles without a balcony. Rooms are air-conditioned and have free WiFi and daily housekeeping. A buffet breakfast is described by guests, though you should check whether it is included in your rate. Late check-out is available for a fee, subject to availability.
Who it suits
Independent travellers, couples and budget-conscious visitors who want a real neighbourhood base with restaurants on the doorstep. It is a good value for a stay of a few nights split between the Old Town and day trips by car or tour. Light sleepers should ask for a room away from the street, since the area is lively in the evenings.
Good to know
Check-in starts at 3pm and check-out is at 11am. The pool is seasonal, and pool-view rooms are best in summer, so choose a city-view room if you travel in the cooler months. We could not confirm winter operating dates, so check availability for your dates before booking, and contact the hotel if you need to be sure. Walkable and compact, it is easy to combine with the Old Town sights on foot.
