Small, clean hotel. I booked through travel Republic just the hotel so was a little worried as you do that when I got there they may be problems but no all was fine the man on reception didn't speak very much English but enough to get me checked in OK. Nice pool area as I said a small hotel so a quiet pool with ample beds for all who wanted one. I never ate breakfast there so can no comment on the food.The bit that has set this hotel apart from most is... 3 days after I arrived home I realised I had left one of my phones in the room, I emailed the hotel with my room number and dates I stayed, they replied the day after saying they would go look. I gave them a few ideas to where I may have stashed it! 24hr later I got an email saying they had found my phone! 😁 Wow I was so surprised and so grateful for the honesty of the staff!! Luckily I have friend in the area who went to collect it the same day. So I'm my opinion a fab hotel with fab honest staff👍🏼

Great hotel

This is a very pretty little hotel in the perfect location close to the beach bars, bus route and restaurants. Our room was simple clean peaceful and comfortable, with everything you would expect, comfy twin beds, clean pleasant bathroom lovely balcony surrounded by flowers and banana trees, small fridge and a TV that we never used. The staff were friendly,especially the lovely cleaning lady. The breakfast were plentiful and good, typical of what you would expect and plenty of tea and coffee available. The pool is lovely, and the bar is fine. I can't understand the previous poor reviews.if you want more then pay more.its excellent value for money. 

We will definitely go back. We felt welcome and comfortable and can't wait to return.

Lovely peaceful hotel,excellent location

Just arrived home from 6 days in the filis hotel had a very lovely stay. It has a very quiet pool area lovely and relaxing sun beds always available.Room was basic but has everything you need rembering this is a 2 star hotel and you get what you pay for but this will not disappoint. Fatima the lovely cleaning lady came to our room 2 or 3 times and it was spotless she was a very lovely lady nothing was to much trouble for her. Next onto the night man he could not do enough for you we came back for a drink every evening and he would always chat to us what absolute lovely polite man. Then there’s Alex he runs the whole place he is a absolute credit to this hotel he did everything and would sort anything out that you needed doing .we would 100per cent come back here to this little gem of a place. I FEEL SOME OF THE BAD REVIEWS ON HERE ARE MISLEADING AND VERY UNFAIR after this is a two star hotel not a five star and people need to remember this you get what you pay for. A lovely place with lovely staff what more could you ask for . See you all next year x😃😃

Was dubious about staying here after reading some of the reviews BUT was exactly what we were looking for a relaxing peaceful week. Plenty of sunbeds, most days only a few round the pool. Breakfast was standard, no complaints. Rooms cleaned every day and towels changed. The only thing I'd change is lunches, it would be perfect if lunches were served instead of having to go out in the peak sun. Bed and pillows were the comfiest ever had on holiday. Would 100% stay again

Peaceful

Me and my husband went to the fili for our first holiday away together without our children. 
It was so relaxaing the hotel was spotles the rooms are clean and always cleaned with bedding and towels getting changed. There was plenty of sun beds round the 3 pools. We went room only but our room had cooking facilities and a fridge. We upgraded when we got to our hotel to half board. For our breakfast and dinner every day we paid €15 each a day which is a great price . The food is good and filling.Im a fusy eater and even i enjoyed the food its also reasonable priced if you decide to just pay as you go😀. If you have a slight change or small request then they will try there best to help i asked if they would make me cheesy-beenos for my dinner one night and they were happy to make me them and they were good. 
The safes are kept in the main reception you get a key and the reception  also has a key and the safe can only be opened when both are used together its €10 a week to hire them.
There is air-conditioning in the rooms we were roughly €70 for the 2 weeks .but in the heat you need it.
The hotel is a good distance from the main  beach but theres a wee rough beach just down the road thats where me and my husband went . Theres a bus stop at the end of the road that takes you into tigaki town and then on too kos town its really cheap im sure we were €1.90 to tigaki and €2.30.
To get from the hotel to anywhere you need to walk down a quite road. Its fine threw the day but at night theres no lights so the road is dark.
Greek night on the saturday is also a bbq night its good for a giggle. The owner wears some really cool funny tshirts.
Im disabled and in a wheelchair and found this hotel suitable for me i mailed the hotel a few weeks b4 i flew out to let them know and they made sure i had a ground floor room. Theres ramps to get to anywhere you need in the hotel the pool toilet has lots of stairs but the room for disabled people are just as close to pop back to. You can also go round the building to miss out the ramp at reception.
Theres 3 pools the kids pool and 2 big adult pools. 
Not much to do in tigaki for teenagers but ideal if you want to relax and enjoy typical greek life.
Me and my husband loved it pleanty of quality time together. Thanks paul marie and all the staff. I will defo go back here .💖🖤🖤💖

Fantastic peaceful holiday

Great quality for great price!! nice, modern and clean hotel. Not too big, nice to chill by the pool or take a 10 minute walk down to the local beach. 3 minute walk up the hill when you go left out of the hotel and you are on the main strip of restaurants, shops and further up have a good night life of clubs/bars. variety of restaurants and cafes to chose from at great price. the hotel serves lovely food also and really cheap drink /alcoholic drink. Alex who works there and his dad are lovely!! great to have a chat with and bit of a laugh with, also helpful. But not sure if Alex is working there over this summer, but usually does. It is great to chill by the pool and relax it is nice and quiet. Would recommend to anyone and would return there.

Nice quiet hotel

Lovely and clean hotel in a Fantastic location right next to strip with bars and restaurants. Staff really friendly and couldn't do anymore to help us with our week in sun. Would definately go back to this hotel in future

Myself and my partner have just returned from a lovely week in Turkey. We stayed in Gumbet, also visiting bodrum and Turgutreis. The weather was fantastic, the sea gorgeous, but as for the Filis ‘hotel’??!
Firstly I will say that we paid a very cheap price for this accommodation and so our expectations were of a very basic and no frills hotel. We had been encouraged by the more positive previous reviews and it is accurate to say that the hotel is in a great location, very peaceful but close to all amenities and the pool is lovely. However we found the hotel service to be absolutely atrocious! If this place was marketed as self catering we may have accepted some of the faults as it was so very cheap. However it’s called a hotel, which means there are some basic expectations, most of these were not met and then on top of that was the nonchalant attitude of the staff! So sit comfortably because here is the full list of the comedy of errors during our week:
First night - arrived at 10pm, told that air con would be additional 50 euros for the week, bit more that I expected but ok. However then told that another member of staff (a youngish guy who seemed during the week to be the one in charge), would come and sort it out ‘soon’. We had to wait over two hours for him to show up to get the air con working and we had to wait by the pool as the room was too hot. We went to our room, (2 single beds which we had to arrange into a double ourselves) and then found that the shower was also faulty. The lever that alternates the water from coming out between tap and shower was broken so it came out of both at the same time. This meant the shower had literally no power, trickled out. When we showed the owner he mainly shrugged and said it’s fine but would look at it, then tried to show off the shower heads different modes which went from; 5 small sprays of water coming out at 45degree angle, to 5 small sprays coming out at a different angle, to the supposed ‘jet’ mode which was basically just like sticking your head under a running tap. This never got fixed.
When we finally went to bed the single pillow we each had was rock hard, this didn’t bother me but my partner slept about two hours and was in a horrendous state the next day and it ruined our first morning. We asked for a new softer pillow, which finally came the following evening (after we had been out and bought soft towels to cushion the pillow as we already didn’t trust the hotel service.)
Also the first morning I went to breakfast, I was already prepared for quite basic Turkish breakfast which is fine, but was shocked at just how basic it was! I could have done a better spread spending a fiver in Asda and throwing it together for having a single mate round. On top of that the tea and coffee was absolutely disgusting tasting, like disinfectant and like the hot water urn still had washing up liquid in it. Also I couldn’t butter my bread as the butter was frozen rock solid. So didn’t stay there long and went out for brunch instead!
Having had our first day out we came back and were already not surprised to find the rooms hadn’t been cleaned. There was hardly any loo roll in the room so we had to buy our own. By day 3 of no cleaned room I asked the ‘owner’ if rooms were cleaned, he said no they weren’t and that if we wanted it cleaned we had to ask and how was he supposed to know if we were out of the room and we wanted it done if we didn’t ask when we went out?! On top of that he also told us that if the towels were dirty enough that they struggled to get marks off we would be charged!! Anyway after our third night and because I had asked we came back to a clean room. However this was the only time it was cleaned in our whole stay.
On the third morning I decided to brave breakfast again (well we had paid for it so I may as well have a couple of pieces of dried bread!) This was when I experienced the piece de resistance from the hapless hotel staff. Firstly I was shocked to see as one family left their table, the ‘chef’ (possibly the most miserable looking man I’ve seen in my life), gather up their leftover bread that they had been breathing over and put it back in the tub on the buffet table for other people to use!  Then, he casually sat down on the table next to all the food, and lit up a cigarette!! I took a photo as evidence and left absolutely gobsmacked.
On day 5 the comedy of errors continued as the toilet flush stopped working overnight. We found a ‘knack’ to get it going again after a while but obviously not good. We mentioned it to the ‘owner’ who said he could get someone out but not til the next day. As it happened,  the following morning the flush was working again. We told the owner not to worry about getting it fixed. I should add that by this point we were reluctant to have someone come in the room either to fix the toilet or clean the room again, as the previous night on day 4 I had left my D&G sunglasses by the pool and went back to find them gone. As much as it was my own fault for leaving them, given the quiet nature of the hotel I was surprised to see them gone so quick. When I asked the owner if he had seen any he just shrugged and said ‘they get a lot of random people coming in and out’. However given that hardly any visitors would have been around the pool so late we were very suspicious...
As it happens I’m now sat by the pool writing this review waiting for our transfer but will not post it til we get home as our cases are sat in reception (no storage area) and I don’t trust either the staff or their ability to keep them safe!
Other faults:
- on the first night we asked for some milk to make cups of tea in the room. The carton of uht milk must have been off as tasted disgusting compared to what we bought in the shops but we still had the owner ask for us to pay for it 3 times during our stay! In the end I gave him 10 lira to shut him up but given the other issues I can’t believe this wasn’t complimentary.
- WiFi was very temperamental. If they didn’t sell the ‘hotel’ as having WiFi then fair enough but they did. As it was it was almost non existent in the room and I would have to go to reception to get any signal.
- General non plussed attitude of owner who seemed to sit around on his mobile most of the day, and who when I informed him of the chef smoking by the food, laughed. As already mentioned we didn’t complain too harshly whilst on holiday as we were concerned about our possessions following my sunglasses disappearing and also the staffs attitude if things had turned nasty. We did put a complaint in to the Rep who met us on the first day but he just seemed to laugh it all off too.
Overall we did have a lovely week in Gumbet/Bodrum and the best I can say for the accommodation is that it was in a lovely location and should really be named Filis Hostel!
STOP PRESS - one more to add! Went to leave hotel to get food before transfer to airport, as mentioned left luggage in reception. Shockingly despite gates and entrances into the hotel being wide open, room Keys left on display behind the desk and our luggage next to it, not a single member of staff was around the reception for a good 10-15 minutes and I had to find someone before we felt safe enough to briefly leave our luggage with them!

Should not be classed as a hotel!

Visited there with my partner and though the location is beautiful and quiet near the beach, the owner couldn't be bothered with anything, our room was only cleaned once that week after we asked, we took the bins down ourselves to empty into their main big bin while they watched, non-plussed while having a fag and watching TV. We had to buy toilet roll and basic things any hotel should provide. 
The breakfast consisted of a few stale bread rolls and few bits of salami. We had to eat this while the chef smoked near the food then watched in amazement as he took bread rolls off people's plates and tossed them back into the main bread basket with his bare hands for other people to eat! 
Anything we went to them with we were met with a shrug or a defensive attitude. In the end we gave up! 
The shower was just a tiny trickle of water,the toilet broke,the TV wouldn't even switch on! 
There were so many things we couldn't wait to get out of the hotel every day. Definitely NOT recommended! !!!! Steer well clear.
