I stayed at Hotel La Vita during my 5-day visit to Rhodes, Greece, in May 2007. Thanks to some friends, I paid less than 20 euro per person for a single room with breakfast, private bathroom and decent facilities, I thought it is a good bargain. Nowadays it is difficult to find a decent hotel (note: real hotel, not private houses or family-run pensions) that charges less than 60 euro per night for a room anywhere in Greece, let along Europe.

Given that I paid less than 20 euro for my room, I was suitably impressed upon arrival that this hotel is a proper hotel with proper facilities, not some kind of make-shift budget accommodations.

                               My room for less than 20 euro per person
As soon as I entered the lobby, the reception staff greeted me by my surname. She already has a list of all guests due to arrive today in front of her. I was given a double room for single use. Great! But the room has no sea view. Well, I only paid less than 20 euro per night so I should not ask for too much, should I? The room itself is simple yet comfortable. And there is a small fridge where I can buy cold drinks from outside and stock them up for the evenings.

The breakfast room on first level. Self-service breakfast is served from 0630 to 1030 and I find the choices of food available are pretty decent. Because I absolutely love freshly prepared fried eggs for my breakfast, any hotel that offers this on the spot is bound to score points with me.
La Vita has freshly prepared fried eggs, scrambled eggs, pancakes, omelettes etc. on offer during breakfast hours. There are several types of bread (soft and hard) to choose from, plus cereals, preserves. jams, fresh fruits, pastries, hot food (baked potato wedges, boiled sausages, stir-fried tomatoes etc.), as well as juices, tasty olives, fresh yogurt and some sweet stuffs that Greeks love for breakfast. Since I don't like sweet stuff at 0700 in the morning, I simply stick to the European selection available. The good thing is, it's self-service so I can eat as many fried eggs as I like....
As La Vita Hotel does not have its own swimming pool, hotel guests are asked to use the swimming pool at nearby Grand Hotel, also owned by the same hotel group. But I prefer swimming in the sea instead, especially as La Vita is just 1 minute away by foot from the long white sandy beach of Rhodes Town.
The hotel is conveniently located, about 15 minutes walking distance from the Mandraki Harbour, 2 minutes by taxi if you are in a hurry, It is close to Rhodes Casino, Rhodes Aquarium, as well as the Old Town.
