- Melenos Art Boutique Hotel

This hotel has a spectacular setting of nature and history for its distinctive accommodation: it nestles within the high above the ancient Lindos Acropolis and offers a panorama of the Aegean Sea and distant coastline. Adapting the early 17th century Lindian architecture, this Lindos luxury hotel is uniquely enriched with an array of detail throughout hand carved stone facades, elaborate carved woodwork, hand-painted ceramics, as well as decorative painted ceilings. Massive stone walls support the guests' private terraces paved with pebble mosaics. On terraces overlooking the Aegean and the distant coastline, the twelve suites of hotel share the same traditional 17th century style. However, each room has an individual ambiance, depending upon its size and orientation within the complex. The suites contain luxurious mattresses which are set on large traditional Lindian raised wooden platforms. Specially executed hand-painted ceilings and ceramic panels, old carved village doors, mother-of-pearl inlay furniture and mirror frames, marble mosaic floors, combine with luxury items and natural bath amenities. By 2007 the combination of all these unique aspects, led this Hotel to become a member of prestigious Small Luxury Hotels of the World.

Most beautiful place, perfectly located in Lindos! It takes only a few minutes to walk to the beaches, restaurants, and shops. The staff is attentive, responsive, and extremely helpful in organizing transfers and tours. The hotel is decorated perfectly. Rooms were clean, and common areas in our villa were equipped with everything we might need. Melenos made this trip one of the most memorable ever!
When you step into this hotel, you’re stepping back into time. This place is magical. It has a beautiful view of the bay. The is absolutely divine. The location is amazing and the rooms are spectacular. I can’t say enough about this hotel. This is the second year a row. I’ve stayed here. A special thank you to Georgia, the hotel concierge. She is so knowledgeable of the island and the city of Lindos. This is a must if you are staying on the island of Rhodes.
Fabulous stay in this Moorish-style palace with rooms lovingly re-created in traditional Lindian style! Warm welcome from Georgia as we were part of the hotel family! The hotel is ideally located halfway between the Lindos Acropolis and the village, with easy access to the beaches, and with a panoramic view on the breathtaking bay. Top rating without reservation!!!
We recently had our wedding at Melenos hotel and it was truly one of the most special places we’ve ever stayed. The entire team worked so seamlessly together and nothing was ever too much trouble.
From Chrysanthi, who worked closely with our wedding planners to coordinate everything perfectly, to Georgia on reception who went above and beyond for us throughout our stay, every single member of staff made us feel so looked after. The breakfast team and housekeeping staff were also incredible- always warm, friendly and attentive, and they helped make the whole experience feel effortless from start to finish.
The hotel itself is such a unique, beautiful and quaint venue. There is beauty and so many thoughtful, unique touches everywhere you look, and the setting is absolutely breathtaking, with the most incredible views over Lindos. Sitting on the terraces looking out over the view is so peaceful and tranquil. From the moment we stepped foot in the hotel to view it we knew it was the perfect place to host our wedding.
Having exclusive use of the hotel for three days with our closest friends and family made it even more special. It felt like our own little corner of paradise for the entire stay, and being able to take over all 12 rooms made it feel so intimate and relaxed.
We couldn’t recommend Melenos highly enough for anyone considering a wedding or special stay in Lindos. It exceeded every expectation and will always hold such a special place in our hearts. We know we will be visiting again for many years to come.
Great quiet location away from the fray of Lindos, yet walkable to the town sites and restaurants. Very accommodating professional staff. Beautiful authentic rooms with unique decor to historic Rhodes. Outdoor spaces were lovely! Even packed a breakfast for us when we were missing it due to our flight. They also assisted with taking us to and from our parked car! Lovely property!
