We spent 2 weeks at Iaxian Grand Hotel recently. We had an inland facing room which was nice and spacious but was lacking in storage. Hotel was very clean and tidy. The main restaurant was very repetitive, same type of meals and not always hot. All the hotel staff were very helpful, friendly and polite. There were two barman who need a mention, they are Petros who worked the day shift and in the evening the head barman and his team. They were always helpful and friendly. They worked constantly to keep the wait to a minimum. The Hotel was situated a short walk from a few bars and the main strip. If you go out of the hotel and turn right, then left there is Phillips bar on the right where you will find a very warm welcome, they do meals and sell English canned beers. The hotel has a coach/mini bus service into Rhodes Town which you book via the app on the reception desk. It cost €8 return, this is well organised both ends and drops you near the harbour. The Hotel grounds and swimming pool area are well kept, pleasant and on a pebble beach. There are plenty of sun loungers and umbrellas. Entertainment is outside around the pool, they had a varying range of acts each night. We had a lovely relaxing holiday.

My partner and I stayed here for a week in October and had a really lovely time. We're both vegan and I'm lactose intolerant, so we knew there might not always be options for us to eat every night — but I have to say, the staff were amazingly helpful with this. I want to particularly mention and thank Chefs Giota and Angel, who came to speak to us personally every day to make sure there were vegan/dairy-free options available. And if there weren't any, they offered to prepare three-course meals for us, which were all absolutely incredible. A truly remarkable level of care and service for their guests.

We stayed for 7 nights all inclusive.
The room was comfortable & well kept, room service was respectful & everyone was always welcoming.
The images of foods shown are from the sushi restaurant on site but all foods had while we stayed were stunning quality, you can tell they all really care about quality.
If you're a cat person, there's many cats all around the hotel, most are friendly and love a cuddle, we very much went out of our way to buy some food for them from the local shop.
Public transport is incredibly easy & takes you into old and new town for a day pass it's €6 or of you just want a one way trip it's €3. I would definitely recommend getting public transport over a tour bus situation, it's cheaper & you have no time constraints this way.
10/10 recommended.

Wonderful hotel! We had a fantastic week here, absolutely nothing to fault. Rooms were basic (we booked a basic one) but comfortable and cleaned to a high standard. Staff were so friendly and helpful.
Poolside etc is great, never had any trouble getting a lounger, 2 pools and the sea to choose from, drinks delivered to you, snack bar open all day.
Buffet restaurant was really good, I found the variety decent each night, always something new to try, one of the better buffets I’ve been to.
The Greek al a carte was incredible, went there for our last night - you order your main in advance and then the rest is a tasting menu with half a dozen courses, each was delicious.
Good location, Ixia itself I didn’t think much of, but you’re so close to Rhodes town. Cheap bus can be booked from the hotel into the town, and the onsite car hire with galaxy with so convenient.
Loved our stay, and would absolutely return in the future

Nice hotel which is in need of some renovations. The staff are second to none all very pleasant and attentive. Food in buffet of a good standard and variety. Drinks are a bit hit and miss on the spirit and mixer front , beer is ok. The other bookable restaurants are all very good , our favourite was the Asian fusion
