We wanted a hotel close to Corfu town so we could visit friends. Our room was clean and comfortable with a kingsize bed and air conditioning. The balcony was a good size with table and four chairs but could easily seat six. We overlooked the pool with a gorgeous view ofthe Church and school behind. Staff were welcoming and friendly. We travel extensively and this hotel met our needs. Bed was a huge kingsize and very comfortable. Sheets changed daily. Shower could do with an update but was powerful enough with plenty hot water. I really do not understand the negative reviews unless we just had one of their best rooms. Room 209 served us well. We did not manage breakfast every day but when we did there was plenty to choose from. i wish there had been a bigger pool as I like to swim but it was ok for a dip. Great location for beach and restaurants and 15 mins walk to Marina. staff were welcoming and friendly and the Receptionist always had a smile for you. The lad on night time reception was friendly and welcoming too. You get what you pay for. If people want a five star hotel they should book a five star hotel. This hotel is 3 star and worthy of it.

“Good hotel, staff make it great”

We originally booked another hotel from the same chain, and were transferred here because they were overbooked. At first, after reading other reviews, I really wasn’t happy, however I’m so glad we stayed here. I really wouldn’t say it’s a 4* by usual standards but the staff are amazing and can’t do… more

We originally booked another hotel from the same chain, and were transferred here because they were overbooked. At first, after reading other reviews, I really wasn’t happy, however I’m so glad we stayed here. I really wouldn’t say it’s a 4* by usual standards but the staff are amazing and can’t do enough for you! Place is clean, room was perfect wth great air con and we really enjoyed the breakfast each morning. The pool was a huge welcome after the hot days exploring the island. Turn left out of the hotel and you’re a stones throw away from so many restaurants, bars, shops and the beach. Thank you to everyone at the Opera Blue Hotel for making our holiday wonderful.

“Both good and bad”

I have to agree this hotel is not quite up to 4 star standard. It could easily be with some TLC. I will point out the good and bad of each part of the hotel. The pool is quite small but there are enough good comfortable sunbeds for most days. The tiles of the pool need the gaps filled in but the po… more

I have to agree this hotel is not quite up to 4 star standard. It could easily be with some TLC. I will point out the good and bad of each part of the hotel. The pool is quite small but there are enough good comfortable sunbeds for most days. The tiles of the pool need the gaps filled in but the pool area is cleaned twice a day. The pool bar is a nice area but the "drug music" is far too loud. The pool umbrellas need replacing and a few more purchased, The reception and all other staff are lovely. Our room was not over large and there was no storage space for empty suitcases. The wardrobe is adequate but not enough hangers. Not enough drawer space for undies etc. The free safe is very small and difficult to operate. The floor has a poor concrete finish. The bed is large and very comfortable with a deep, expensive mattress. Not like the usual Greek mattresses!. The air conditioning unit was quite new and was quiet and first class. The shower cubicle was roomy with lashings of hot water at all hours. The rest of the bathroom was cramped with not enough shelfing for toiletries etc. The balcony was ok with a view of the nice gardens of the hotel and close apartment blocks. The worst part of the hotel was the breakfast. The "hot" food was lukewarm at best. Eggs, no bacon, small mini frankfurters with the occasional nice Greek sausage. Any left overs were served up the next day mixed with the mini franks. Tinned mushrooms and tomatoes sometimes. Best part was the small warm , soggy spinach pies. I chose the cold buffet. Three types of very thinly sliced cold meat, all tasting the same. Two types of very thinly sliced cheese, again both tasting the same. Cucumber and tomato fresh crispy and tasty. Best of all was the Corfiot small black olives, lovely. Overall very poor. Can't see us returning unless it is very cheap.
