Hotel Kaiser Bridge — Hotel in Municipality of Central Corfu and Diapontia Islands

From the warm welcome you first receive at reception to your goodbye wave when you leave it’s all top notch. The staff, the view, the food all top class.|About 13 km from Corfu town, 9 km from the airport (all easily reached via local bus) situated on the east of the island looking over to the Greek mainland over a calm clear warm sea.|It has a small Pebble beach with access to 15 or so sun loungers with warm clear waters to swim in. |It’s not a quiet spot as the main road is between the hotel and the beech see Google maps, and you have the occasional plane taking off and landing but to be honest it shouldn’t bother you unless you want total peace and quiet.|As said it’s a family run business and they are always smiling and jolly and never a frown was seen, nothing it any trouble for them and they will do anything if the can.|Food is great and the have an 11 pound menu if your strapped for cash and it’s all good.|You can get blue bus ticket from reception for town for about 1.70e buy them from mini marts in the town near the bus stop to return.|The stop before town is the bus terminus where you catch green busses to the rest of Corfu.|The hotel is quite isolated but so are most on that side of island you may need a car if your not too mobile.|Benietsis is the nearest village about 15 min walk and only has a path half way round From the bus stop further on, it has a few blind corners so you have to keep swapping the side of road you walk on so not to get blind sided by traffic.|We did it day and night and can be done if care is taken but obviously not a good idea with small children just depends on how your walking is,or you can catch the bus or take your car if you have one.|Hotel has a limited parking area, about 15 cars so wouldn’t advise a big car.|Aircon works by key and is easily programmed and not noisey on lowest setting.|Views from all windows/balconies/breakfast are stunningly beautiful to sit and sip your drink while watching the day skip by, the hotel is worth it for just...

I had a lovely, relaxing one-week stay here. The hotel has a terraced area looking onto the sea, which is a beautiful place to sit for meals - especially in the evening. The food itself is top quality. For evening meals, there is an à la carte menu with lots of options or - my favourite - there is a menu of the day which at €20 is great value (and includes starter, main, generous salad bowl and dessert). The dishes change each day and are written up on a blackboard in the morning. Every meal I had at the hotel was delicious and Benitses is a short (approx 5 minutes) bus ride away, so it is easy to get out and visit other restaurants too. You can buy tickets for this from the reception desk at just €1.20 each way.||The hotel's private beach is beautiful and I had no problems securing a sun lounger each day, despite it being peak season (July). You do have to cross a road to reach it, and it can be quite busy at times, but after the first day I thought nothing of it.||I chose a room at the back of the hotel with a mountain view, which was beautiful, and the balcony was great for sitting out on as it got the sun in the evenings. The furniture in the room itself was a little outdated but this was of no concern to me. The room was clean on arrival and freshened up each day. Most importantly, the air conditioning system was brilliant and very easy to adjust. I slept like a log each night - which was great as I had been a little worried about how I would cope in the heat!||One of the hotel's biggest strengths is the family who run it - every member of staff I dealt with was really welcoming, attentive and generous. There is someone around 24/7 and they are always happy to help. Thank you all & I look forward to...

My wife and myself stayed for over a week and very much enjoyed our stay. The hotel is on the main road on the eastern coast, but even if you have a sea-facing room like we did, it's not very noisy (we slept with the window open without any issues). The hotel beach below the street level does not look like much at first sight, but it kind of grows on you, and by the end of the stay, we really liked it. It has freely accessible beach beds at no charge, so you don't have to think about bringing spare coins like on many public Greek beaches. The connection to Kerkyra with public transport is very good, the bus stop is right in front of the hotel, buses go every hour or so and cost just EUR 1.5 a ticket. Even so, you better rent a car for your stay, as it is kind of difficult to walk anywhere from the hotel, as the road is quite narrow and there are very few sidewalks. As regards the hotel itself, it's nice and clean, the cleaning lady did a spectacular job keeping our room clean on a daily basis, the hotel staff is very friendly, always smiling and happy to help with advice. Food is very good - breakfast has good selection, but the true highlight is the dinner, where you can have a very conveniently priced 3-course dinner of the day or choose from a la carte menu. Dishes are priced very reasonably. The view from the terrace is amazing, especially in the evenings. Last but not least, Achilleion, Sissi's palace, can be accessed via a tourist trail that starts right outside the hotel in about 30 minutes by walking. There are also a few other hiking opportunities in the area available. Overall, excellent value for money and would happily recommend this...
