Visiting this place during my trip to Kos was a delight. It offers fantastic photo opportunities while exploring. History enthusiasts will particularly enjoy this site. A leisurely stroll takes about an hour, or an hour and a half if you stop to take pictures. On the top of the castle provides stunning views of Kos. It's advisable to bring a drink with you, as there were no facilities inside during our visit. The remnants of damage from a past earthquake are visible. Entry was free when I went. Convenient parking is available nearby, so there's little walking required. The locals are quite welcoming. I liked it so much that I visited twice.

I would happily pay couple of euros each to come into this fine place. A combination of modern and mythological history situated in the heart of Kos, for any history buff this is an amazing walk. As said it is free with local eateries nearby on the harbour. Please explore it is safe go down the unlit tunnels and let your inner kid go wild with enjoyment. Wish for more educational aspects to it as I was explaining to many the parts of the building and how some of it was changed to incorporate the use of it during ww2

Entrance to castle and walls from outside look really very beautiful. Unfortunatelly inside is not any exhibition. Which is very sad, it would be awesome place for museumabout history of castle. You can go around castle (part of walls are closed because they are collapsing) and take pictures of beautiful views.

Lots of stones. Without any historical background or a tourist guide you won't know (just like myself) what's going on, what I'm watching or why it's there. One of many attractions but I didn't really know what's what. Free entry for everyone

It's okay. It's free to enter, so visit it. But don't expect too much from it. I really missed some information about its history and the things I was looking at. Nice view of the Harbor from the corners of the castle. You can't visit most of the castle by the way.
