Silver Bay Hotel

We were presented with an old and dirty room, the pool and outside area were decent, but clearly are being used to increase the price of a property that has been left to fall apart. The rooms are consistently not attended to, there is dust, rust on the taps, the doors are dirty and have clearly not been changed or painted in a long while, even the are curtains not properly placed on the rails. A picture of complete abandonment. Completely different to what is being showed and definitely not worth the per night price. The only silver lining was the great receptionist who did whatever was within his powers to get us the best room he could so we could have a decent stay. A good guy left to deal with the results of a terrible business model. Do not recommend!

If you enjoy sleeping, do not come here. The bed was hard as a rock, the air conditioner was broken, and the room smelt of sewage. Do not stay here to save money. Spend the extra 30-50 euro to enjoy your life. NOT WORTH IT.

Overall I'd rate the experienfe a 6/10, as ut did take some time to get used to hownthis hotel is run and acclimitise to lack of services on offer. I'll split my ratings into 3 categories: Service, Comfort and amenities. Service - I'd give this a 6/10 as the staff at the hotel did a good job to make themselves a available. First night was almost a disaster as we weren't talked through how to control the ac unit of the room and it led to time being wasted, in a hot sticky room. Once that was resolved, staff were usually quite attentive and the hotel manager was helpful with providing advice on how to get across corfu. Comfort - I'd give this a 5/10. Overall, the rooms were clean and our rooms were cleaned every day. However, the biggest let down was the fact that my room had bugs and i was getting bug bites. This was hugely disappointing and made the first few nights disappointing. Hotel lounge was clean, as well as the pool side. Me and my family when we were at the hotel, spent alot.of time by the pool side sunbathing, which was a pleasant experience. Its quite peaceful also alot of the time, as it wasnt busy at the time we stayed. Amenities - I'd give this a 4/10. There were some stuff which were said to be available upon arrival but just werent provided. An example being an ironing service. This was unavailable and it resuled in me having to buy an iron which disappointed me. Also you didn't have a dinner menu, you ordered the food from a third party restaurant.

You should not take cash from your customers and refuse to give them a receipt. You receive cash on Monday and you refused to give me a receipt. Come back and I did still no receipt. That is illegal. I told you on Monday that I needed to change my reservation to depart on Wednesday and it was approved. I asked for my receipt as I departed and no receipt was issued. Your rooms are full of mold. You can open the door to the room because it has been damaged from the humidity.

A really lovely stay at Silver Bay Hotel. All the staff were really friendly and helpful, helping to sort excursions for us. Very good English. Food was nice and a variety of options to choose from. Perfect location, not far from the bus stop to get into Corfu old town and 15 min walk to Kontakali Bay or Gouvia beach. Rooms were slightly basic but for the price we paid, the hotel was great with lovely swimming pool and outside area and bar. Would recommend.

I have a very good stay at the Silver Bay. All of the staff were amazingly friendly and helpful. Thank you... The room was good and clean. My one downside being there were only Greek tv channels in the room. However, I didn’t go to Corfu to watch tv!!! The hotel has a lovely outdoor pool and bar area and it is very easy to get to other places on the island. All in all a great hotel.

The staff and all the service was amazing, equal to a 5 star hotel. Very very kind. The rooms were partially renovated, but needed some more, they were very clean but not so big. The breakfast was perfect. Good location, easy to drive to Kerkyra and most other places. The most important is that you feel like you are in a 5 star hotel, because of the quality of service, and the behaviour. Also, the food we ordered twice had very good quality and excellent prices. Strongly suggested, especially for the price.

Nice hotel, friendly staff. Nice breakfast with great varity of food, breakfast area on nice veranda facing garden and pool. Located on the west side of main road close to corfu hospital. Apx 5 min walk to Kontokali village center, 10-15 min walk to Gouvia. Bus station right by the hospital (apx 5 min walk). However the downside - the hotel overbook to prevent themself from having empty rooms due to flight cancellations (2018) on arrival I was told that they were gonna re-locate me to another part of Corfu. I was not happy with this information as I was specifically looking for hotels in Kontokali. When I just wasn’t going to give in they finally gave me the last available room in the hotel. Leaving someone else without. I was happy it was sorted out and greatful to the staff who are left with this impossible situation of overbookings. As I travel solo I choose hotels very carefully and I absolutely don’t want theese kind of surprises on arrival. I’d think twice about booking this hotel again. Unless you have an early flight and can check in directly in the afternoon the risk of being relocated is probably high. So in conclusion very nice if you acctually get a room. I didn’t try out the pool due to restrictions of only to be used 10-19, I would have loved a morning after run swim though.

The pool area was very pleasant, not too busy. The room (although the bed was hard) was exactly as advertised, and there were no mosquitoes bothering me! It would benefit from having a toilet close to the poolside as the nearest one was down stairs from reception area. We ordered cocktails but they were not as we would expect served in a plastic pint style glass with no decoration. The internet connection was intermittent once in the room but fine elsewhere.
