Check-in: Upon arrival at the hotel around 13:00 in 5-10 minutes, we already received the keys to the room after filling out a small questionnaire with personal data, as well as access to the "all inclusive". Considering that the hotel day starts at 14:00, this is a big plus that we did not have to wait long.

Check-in: Upon arrival at the hotel around 13:00 in 5-10 minutes, we already received the keys to the room after filling out a small questionnaire with personal data, as well as access to the "all inclusive". Considering that the hotel day starts at 14:00, this is a big plus that we did not have to wait long. As I watched, in the following days, new tourists also immediately received the keys without a long wait.
Check-out: Hotel night ends at 12:00, so before that time you must leave the room and return the keys to the reception. In addition, we still could use all the available entertainment (beach, swimming pool, "all inclusive" until the very departure. We had a check-out at 16:30. Also available is the “Shower room” until 18:00 for free, where you can change clothes and swim after the beach. This is a normal hotel room. In conclusion, if it comes to check in/out, there was no problem with this.
Hotel: If we talk about the hotel itself, it is clean, looks like in the photos.
We were a group of 4, so we had 2 rooms (superior). Rooms with sea view (as in the attached photos). In addition to the room: TV, air conditioning, towels (small and large for each person, which are changed every 3 days), hair dryer, safe (free of charge), hand soap. The rooms are cleaned every day. Unfortunately, the hotel does not have towels for the beach, so you need to take your own or buy in a store nearby. The hotel also has billiards (2 euro game); 2 bars with all-inclusive access until 23:00 (then for an additional fee), restaurant. During our stay at the hotel 3 times we had additional entertainment in the evening: Saturday - live jazz music; Wednesday - live music pop style; Friday - Greek bouzouki (i. e. Greek music with dancing in national dress)
Food: The food is good and tasty, breakfast and lunch are about the same every day, while dinner is different. For dinner, the main dishes were meat and fish to choose from.
The downside is that unfortunately the restaurant itself is small and you have to wait in line (from 10 minutes sometimes up to 40 minutes) in order to get inside. It depends on how many people are in the hotel, the more people the longer the wait. But, despite everything, order reigns at the entrance to the restaurant, everyone will find a place for themselves and there is enough food for everyone (dishes are constantly delivered).
Service: the staff is pleasant and good, they generally speak English at the reception and in the restaurant, there were also people who spoke Russian.
Beach: The beach is next to the hotel, looks the same as in the photos. Sun loungers and umbrellas are free, but you need to book places on the beach in the morning. The beach also has a pier from which you can jump perfectly. I recommend bringing a snorkeling mask with you. The sea is very clean at any time of the day.
Neighborhood: unfortunately, with this so-so.
Near the hotel there is only a small shop with different products (food, souvenirs, alcohol, beach accessories), but be aware that the prices in it are 15-20% more expensive than in other shops on the island. Heading to the right from the Hotel, 1.8-2 km there will be more shops and a very good Greek Tavern (Akrogiali). I highly recommend eating there for lunch or dinner. The food is very fresh and tasty. We were at 4, ordered typical Greek fish dishes - paid between 65-70 EUR for everything. I don't think it's too expensive. Heading to the left of the hotel, after about 2.5 - 3 km you will reach the town of Benitses (there are also various taverns and shops). There are no sidewalks on the road, I do not recommend walking. Every 15 minutes, the Bus runs - the ticket price is 1.7 EUR per person (this price is valid for various distances, both close and long). For this price, you can also get to the aforementioned Akrogiali tavern.
The bus stop is right in front of the hotel where you can see the exact bus schedule.
Excursions: we did not use the tours from the agency, given that we were traveling in four - it turned out to be cheaper and more convenient for us to travel by ourselves. By bus in 25-30 minutes we drove up to the city of Corfu (price 1.7 EUR) per person. Easy to find city center and all attractions. I recommend visiting the monastery of St. Spiridon. The next day we rented a car, with the help of the hotel itself. The plus is that we got and left the car in the hotel parking lot and did not have to go anywhere else. The price starts from 40 EUR/day. We took insurance for 45 EURO + 10 EURO (an additional option is not mandatory). Also, the cost does not cover fuel. We refueled for 20 EURO, having driven 100 km in a day, we still have some left.
I recommend to go to Paleokastrica, really super view of the beaches and mountains.
From what I saw, you can also take a bus (I don't know the ticket price). From the hotel by car, the road is about 1 hour one way. The road is not straight all the time, you need to be careful on the turns. On Paleokastrica itself, we found a boat with a captain who, for 70 EURO (for 4 people), made us a 1 hour excursion along the entire coast and showed us all the sights and historical places. We were on a good beach called Paradise Beach, and in 2 hours the captain sailed for us again and took us away (the time when we chose to pick us up ourselves).
Bottom line: I think that the rest was very successful, a lot of places to visit. Sitting only in the hotel will be boring. Food is delicious, service is friendly.
The price matches the quality. Don't be afraid that the Hotel only has 3 stars because it is really good.

We rested together with a friend in the first half of September. The hotel was chosen on the recommendation of our friends, they have already rested here before. Host company Ambotis. The flight is very convenient - from Vnukovo at 10.15, arrival in Corfu at about 14.00. Return departure at 15.00, arrival in Vnukovo at about seven in the evening.

The flight is very convenient - from Vnukovo at 10.15, arrival in Corfu at about 14.00. Return departure at 15.00, arrival in Vnukovo at about seven in the evening.
The hotel can really be recommended for many reasons. Convenient location, the view from the terrace and from the hotel rooms is simply amazing (we had a sea view in the room), all meals are included.
The beach is pebbly right in front of the hotel, you need to go down, but I even liked such a warm-up there. You need special shoes. We occasionally went to the sandy beach in Messini for a change.
But mostly we traveled around the island, because it is so beautiful and interesting. We took a Grand tour of the island from the host company (I liked it very much) and independently went to Benitzes and to the capital Kerkyra. Bus stop near the hotel.
Special thanks to the hotel staff - very friendly, cleanliness all around.
Of the minuses - paid Internet. Well, the beach is not for everyone. We really liked the hotel and vacation on the island of Corfu. We will definitely come back here and recommend to everyone.

We love Greece very much, and especially Corfu. We try to come to this island every 2 years. This time we rested in early June at the Belvedere 3 * hotel. We liked the hotel. Good trio. The rooms are basic, nothing special. Everything you need for relaxation. Moreover, we only sleep in the room. The beach is across the road, pebbly.

The rooms are basic, nothing special. Everything you need for relaxation. Moreover, we only sleep in the room. The beach is across the road, pebbly. On the beach you need special shoes to avoid getting hurt and sometimes we saw sea urchins. We had shoes from last year, but in general you can buy them in a store near the hotel. Beach chairs are free. There are not very many of them, but if you come in the morning, there are always free places. The sea is clean and warm. In early June, the sea temperature was about 22 °C. The hotel itself is located in the southern part of the island near Benitses. We went there on foot. The territory of the hotel is green and well-groomed.
I would like to commend the restaurant. Really delicious food and variety. There have always been fruits. Very good yoghurts. Dinner included both fish and meat dishes. When we checked out early, you could order an early breakfast or lunch box. The pool bar offers ice cream and snacks throughout the day. 3 times a week entertainment program in the evenings by the pool. Greek evening and live music. It was very nice to be there, as the hotel offers a beautiful view of the Ionian Sea. We really rested there.
The island is also worth a trip. There are many beautiful places. We were on a sightseeing tour of the island, where we visited the palace of Elizabeth of Austria-Hungary and Paleokastritsa. The tour was led by a very good guide, who constantly told something interesting.
And for the second time we flew to Bari. This tour is great. We visited the Basilica of Saint Nicholas. A lot of information. The guides are true professionals. And the city of Bari impressed.
See you soon. Wait for us in a year.

We rested at the Belvedere hotel on the island of Corfu at the end of August. They settled us quickly - an hour after arrival, although our flight was early. We went straight to breakfast and were pleasantly surprised. Good food, great selection of dishes. At lunch and dinner everything was excellent. There were always meat dishes, and fish or seafood.

We went straight to breakfast and were pleasantly surprised. Good food, great selection of dishes. At lunch and dinner everything was excellent. There were always meat dishes, and fish or seafood. It's hard to stay hungry in this hotel. The restaurant is clean. Tables were cleared very quickly. In general, the entire staff of the hotel did a great job. There was always someone at the reception, and at any time you could ask for help. Room cleaning was also carried out regularly and efficiently.
Near the pool bar there was always several types of ice cream.
The hotel beach is across the road. You need to go down the stairs. The beach is pebbly, as is the case on the entire east coast of the island. We immediately bought swimming shoes in the nearest store. It made getting in so much more comfortable. There are not many sunbeds on the beach. We went early in the morning, and at that time there were always free sunbeds, but in the afternoon there were most likely problems with this. The sea is clean and warm. . .
Near the hotel there is one small shop, a bus stop a few steps away. In general, the place is quiet. No restaurants, bars or discos near the hotel. So this hotel is suitable for lovers of peace and quiet.

The location is well suited for getting around Corfu. The hotel is decent with good food and regular cleaning. The area is cramped, but it's not five. The beach is also not big, but the water is clear, you can see the fish. Liked.

Rested from 9 to 15 August 2014. I rested just the way I wanted to. I just wish I could spend more time there. This is indeed a beautiful place. The sea is warm and the water is very clean.

Nice balcony with sea view. I liked it all very much!

My husband and I went on vacation after 2 years, we chose Greece, a wonderful country and, on the advice of friends, flew to Corfu to the Corfu Belvedere hotel. At first glance, a small but cozy hotel, a small area, but well-groomed and full of different flowers and trees, vegetation is everywhere, while it is also well-groomed.

My husband and I went on vacation after 2 years, we chose Greece, a wonderful country and, on the advice of friends, flew to Corfu to the Corfu Belvedere hotel. At first glance, a small but cozy hotel, a small area, but well-groomed and full of different flowers and trees, vegetation is everywhere, while it is also well-groomed. We were checked into the room at 2 o'clock, the room is small but cozy, the windows overlooked the pool and the sea, the room had an entrance hall with a wardrobe with a refrigerator, the furniture in the room was new, comfortable, air conditioning, satellite TV. There was no shower gel or shampoo in the bathroom, only soap. We told the reception and after a couple of minutes we had it all, and also apologized. The room was cleaned daily, towels and linen changed every 2 days. The restaurant in the hotel turned out to be quite small in size, the choice of dishes was varied, and most importantly, everything was deliciously prepared from fresh ingredients. For lunch and dinner, several types of meat and side dishes were always served, often there was also fish (well, very tasty, you'll lick your fingers! ), Also there were always fruits on the table, sometimes dessert was served instead of fruits. The beach near the hotel is narrow, in order to reach it you have to cross the road, sunbeds and umbrellas are free, but from the road it turns out to be secluded, which is very good. The beach is pebbly, at the entrance there is a little pebble, and then sand begins. Nearby there is a pier from which it is possible and very convenient to jump into the sea. We rented a car, a Ford Focus on a machine for 70 euros, plus another 50 euros spent on gasoline, went to Paleokastritsa, the canal of love, drove around the neighboring small villages, and also visited the local water park, we traveled almost the entire island. At the hotel reception, they took a booklet that told about an excursion along one of 15 mountain routes to choose from - very beautiful, a lot of landscapes, I don’t want to take pictures, a lot of steep climbs, wild paths and streams, but it’s worth seeing! I remember the rest, I liked the hotel, Corfu is a beautiful island, I recommend it!

Vacation with my husband.
This year, my husband and I were choosing where to go for a long time and settled on about. Corfu and the Corfu Belvedere hotel and did not lose. The island is simply fabulous: an incredible amount of greenery, gorgeous sea, clean air. And in the hotel we were very lucky, we had a room with a view of all this beauty. The hotel staff is very good, warmly welcomed, always responded to requests, and when we left, we were given a room to take a shower and change clothes (the flight was in the evening), so we comfortably waited for the transfer to the airport.
The holiday itself was wonderful, everyone had time: to ride around the island, and swim, and sunbathe, and just take a sea of photos of this amazing place.
We liked everything in the hotel, the only remark about the cleaning of the room, but after the first contact with the administration, this problem was resolved.
I think if we return again to Corfu (and we will most likely return), then we will again stay at this hotel.

Corfu itself is extraordinarily beautiful and interesting, there is something to see. I went on excursions around the island, around the capital, I brought a lot of amazing photos. Now about the hotel itself. Corfu Belvedere 3*. I didn’t look for a hotel of a higher category in principle, because after all this is Greece, it’s just a crime to sit in a hotel all the time, therefore there are no complaints about the hotel. There were, of course, minor flaws, they can not even be called shortcomings. I came to rest, so I didn’t care at all about some little things that were corrected instantly. The food is good, a lot of everything, I was even afraid that I would bring home a few extra pounds, but swimming in the pool, on the beach and walking around the wonderful island did not contribute to this. By the way, I was very lucky with the room - I got a sea view. It was very nice to sit on the balcony and look at the clean expanse of the Ionian Sea. In general, I had a great rest both in body and especially in soul, because Corfu is an extraordinary place! And most importantly, I ended up in the church of Spyridon of Trimifuntsky, the patron saint of the island, and the locals said that he would now protect me wherever I was and would definitely make sure that I returned to the island, which I really hope for!

We decided to go with a friend to Greece on about. Corfu or Kerkera as the locals call it. The hotel was chosen Corfu Belvedere 3 *. Fans of noisy places and parties will be bored there, because it is located 3 km from the nearest village of Benitses, but this did not frighten us and in the evenings we went there by bus.

Fans of noisy places and parties will be bored there, because it is located 3 km from the nearest village of Benitses, but this did not frighten us and in the evenings we went there by bus. There is practically no entertainment in the hotel itself, in addition to the main restaurant and the pool bar, there is, in general, nothing to do. Yes, and for nothing, we came to the island not to sit around the clock in the hotel. We went to the city, to the neighboring village to taverns, so we had no time to notice any shortcomings of the hotel. Some complained that the beach was down across the road, but we knew about it in advance, so it didn't bother us. The beach strip, of course, is narrow, but there was enough space for us, so there were no problems. The numbers were fine too. The view is not the sea, but we compensated for this by sitting at the pool bar, which offers a beautiful view of the sea. We are not picky about food, we really liked everything. Good staff, always helpful. There are no Russian speakers in the hotel, but our hotel guide always helped us if we had any questions. We were satisfied with the hotel and the rest, and this is the most important thing!
