“My” Little Camelot (again)
Speaking of hotels, once again I will also have to mention Nina Macheraki’s little Camelot in Rhodes Town. I cannot help but feel at home here, after all these years…
Thomas Hotel
So where to stay in a small village like Monolithos? Surely there are no comfortable options, but you will have to try to rent a small room somewhere? Quite the opposite, surprisingly (or maybe NOT so surprisingly) Monolithos has a very nice and cosy small hotel, the Thomas Hotel. You will be well taken care … Continue reading
