Though I did not get an upgrade, the front desk and the concierge are very friendly and helpful. The exceptional service I received was when I made a request to go to the top pool area to take a few photos before it opens at 11AM on Oct. 12, 22, they considered my Expedia Gold status and guided /accompanied me through the service stairs to the top view area, and I was able to leave the hotel at 10:30AM and bring the sunny memories with me. Great hotel!

Hotel Royal Ariston is located in a truly idyllic location with beautiful views from anywhere you are, whether it's the restaurant, bar or pool. The rooms are spacious, but the decor could use a bit of a renewal (there were marks on carpet, dents in walls, bathroom door would scrape against the floor when opening) but all very minor things. The amenities were really amazing, a good choice of pools, hot tubs, spas, restaurants & bars either on the resort or within walking distance, though prices were a bit expensive if staying on the resort, even in the off season (October) when we visited.

The catering at the hotel was abysmal. The food was unimaginative, repetitive and cold. The staff in the restaurant were glum and charmless. Nowhere near what I would expect from a so-called 5’star hotel.

The resort was wonderful. Clean and beautiful. The sea and the pool areas are stunning. You can’t even believe how girls the views are. The rooms are updated and well appointed. Love the common sea decor. Service was excellent. The breakfast buffet.. OMG!! Fantastic. I can’t recommend this hotel enough!
