Coral Hotel, Roda Corfu
INTRO
Not knowing where to go for hols this year we decided to convert our Tesco vouchers and go for a free holiday. The one place that always seemed to come up was the Corel Hotel in Corfu.
All the pictures and info on the net pointed to a good family run hotel in a nice area of Corfu.
LOCATION
The hotel is situated on the outskirts of RODA which itself is about an hour and a half from Corfu Town and the airport.
The hotel itself is literally a small stones throw from the beach. Alas that's a pebble beach but its still right on the sea. When we arrived I was pleasantly surprised at the location. There's about a 10 mile stretch of water between Corfu and the mountains of Albania. Stick all of this together and you have nothing short of a fantastic location.

Advantages: quiet, private and safe Disadvantages: The steep hill up to it
bar very good, did a few meals! basic but filled a gap, the breakfast typical continental!! ham,peaches, bread and cereal, all ok, plenty of coffee and tea, and a lot of wasps!! we had a good veiw across the sea to corfu town, the worst bit was the HILL!!! very steep down the first 100 yards!! then a pleasent walk 5 mins to ipsos main road where there is a plentyful supply of places to eat, not the hustle and bustle of most towns but good enough!! now back to the room! basic! bathroom no bath! shower that wet everywhere! toilet that had an odur, had to keep flushing it!! telly, i think we all take thing for granted, Hotel Jason did the job, but there is a big hill up to it!! very private, 95% clean, very freindly staff, not many English guests, a large amount of Eastern europeans, but ok!! wouldn't go back as we don't do things twice! to ...
Advantages: Quiet ( usually!) Disadvantages: Some people may find the (small)hills a chore/problem
I am beginning to think we went to a different hotel to the one being reviewed here! To follow the previous review -
1. We arrived at half 3 in the morning - were met by an abrupt night manager, but wouldn't you be at half 3 in the morning, having to deal with weary English toursists not speaking a work of Greek?
2.The room - clean, basic, tidy. We were in the old part of the building, but I thought it was the new part until I realised we had no Air Con. HOWEVER, wasn't needed - the nights were getting chilly. We were only supplied with one pillow each, but we asked for extra the next morning and my tea time we had been given another one each.
3. Breakfast - we went down for 9am to be served with some unusal choices, but adequate and plentiful. What's everyone moaning about? What do you have at home???? Compare and contrast!
