Advantages: The old perfectly marries the new Disadvantages: quite a bit of walking if it is hot.
Rhodestown is divided into the new and the old town and both are well worth a visit.
Rhodestown is on a main harbour and the site of the 'Collosus of Rhodes'; one of the famed seven wonders of the world, a statue of the greek god Helios said to be 110 feet high and made of bronze, proudly marking the entrance to the harbour until destroyed by an earthquake in 248BC.
Facing the harbour you will find a huge choice of restaurants and cafes offering a wonderful range of Greek and European fayre, and the most deliscious cakes and pasteries.
Wherever you are in new Rhodestown you are never far away from the imposing gothic style walls of the medievel city.
The Old Town a majestic trip back in time. It is a walled city complete with a Palace of the Knights, it is large and very well preserved. Of course you have to expect ...
Advantages: Family friendly, all inclusive, next to beach Disadvantages: Insects in rooms, no cash machine, not enough toilets
access. These were all paying machines. Internet cost ?0.50 for 8 minutes. We tried some of the game machines but a couple of them just ate our money and didn't work! We told reception and there was no problem getting our money back.
There is also a laundry service at the hotel. You can fill in a form and the cleaners will pick up your washing. This is quite expensive though. Since we were in London beforehand we were running out of clothes and decided to get some essentials cleaned. This did end up costing us about ?15 though. This also took three days and we were only there for a week!
There is no cash machine at the hotel. It is a 5 minute walk to the closest one, which is next to some tourist shops.
There is a bus stop right outside the hotel which went all the way into Rhodescity via some other small towns. We did go to some ...
Advantages: A book of sumptuous recipes many of which are used in Rhodes' own restaurants. Disadvantages: Recipes are generally for more people than you find in the average family.
I?ve always had a soft spot for Gary Rhodes right from his first series for the BBC back in 1994. No, it wasn?t the spiky hair (which I hated) or the puppyish charm (which grated) it was the fact that it did seem that the man could actually cook and his love of the food shone through in everything that he prepared.
It didn?t even worry me that he?s thin when no chef has the right to be thin. He?s a cook; it?s what his life is about, whether he?s appearing on television, running his restaurants and brasseries or writing books. They are all part of a seamless whole. Go into the kitchens of his brasseries and you could well find that the chefs are working from photocopied pages from my latest find: his ?New British Classics?.
First published in 1999 ?New British Classics? is not just a cook book; it?s a work of scholarship too ...
