Have been reading on another site about the big yellow hotel.It always reminds me of the hotel from the shining/jack nicholson maybe not so big. Imagine a caretakers job there in the winter anyone interested.Nice to see the lovely friendly forum back to normal,many thanks.

It seems to have captured peoples imagination in a "gothic horror" kind of way. We have gazed at it for years but never ventured as far as looking at it. Sorry! Can't watch horror movies !
Could be fun thinking of who could you imagine staying there. Or, who would you condemn to staying there! Now that could haunt your thoughts! Anyone up for a visit on the 31st?

I'll go if you will Don!!!!! :o :o :o :o

What about John & Sandra?

We had a walk up to the hotel when we were there in September. It was creepy enough in the sunshine and there is no way that I would go in the dark!!
It's all very sad really. The bedrooms are all fully furnished - beds made, pictures on walls, tvs, etc - which makes it all the more eerie. If the rooms had been empty it may have felt less spooky.
The grounds are very overgrown and the hotel has been broken into so you can go inside (we didn't dare!). There are a few bits of furniture lying outside and a couple of TV's broken up.
It could be a lovely place but the money needed to 'fix' it would be enourmous. The building is now starting to decay and over time it is going to become more of a wreck, and with it being the largest building in SS, will become a blot on the beautiful landscape.

We had a walk up there in september but did not venture inside.There was someone inside and it appeared as they were sleeping there, they did a quick disappearing act when they saw us outside.
-
I thnk we were in San Stef the same time as you Kemo and I agree, there was someone inside. We could see the hotel clearly from the Tsaros and the shutters were open on one room on the upper floor and there was washing hung over the balcony.
-
Damn does that mean I'll have to pay for my accommodation next year!!
:D :D :D :D :D :D

Terry, I also had a good view of the yellow hotel from the Athina and I could see the upper floor room with the shutters open. We were told by a waiter at one of the restaurants in SS that squatters often stayed in there and that over the coming winter all the furniture, fittings etc will disappear[not sure what he meant by that].
-
that over the coming winter all the furniture, fittings etc will disappear[not sure what he meant by that].
I've a pretty good idea what he meant!! ;D Guess the surprising thing is that it hasn't happened already.

Makes you wonder why all the stuff wasn't removed when it was closed down.

Hi Don & Terry, it seems we are all thinking the same thing! ;D ;D

Hellooooooooooo there Sandra Good to see you on here, Welcome to the mad house!!!!!!

I wonder if anyone will be doing anything at this hotel this year. Its a shame as its its in a nice position.
-
I Didn't win the Lottery so won't be doing a "Grand Design" transformation with it!!!!!!
-
You and me both Sue.... Sandra still blames me even though we have used the same numbers since the first draw! She chose them, but it's my fault for not stopping her! Personally I'd rather try to stop a runaway train! ???
-
I was wondering what the connection was at first - then I realised - yellow hotel - and the yellow shirt,
must be connected - he wears sunglasses otherwise the sun would burn him up!!
I think he did win - he did buy the hotel - and it may be called "Doncula's Rest" Apartments,
-
I'm really intrigued.. I have no idea what this hotel is... Can you tell me whereabouts?
-

It was going to be the "HQ - Hotel" for a German holiday invasion, but was closed as it never had planning permission.
Seems a bit of a waste and will soon be an eyesore if not sorted out!!
-
Cool, I'll have to check that out. Thanks ;D

It could end up being like the Blair Witch Project -
The Don Glitch Project - Don never seen again!! Just a camcorder and an empty mythos!!

dont know if it is true but we were told the hotel was raided by the police all the people thrown out and the owner carted away something to do with taxes that is why no one can buy it as they would have to pay lots of money on top before they could open it up

Not quite correct - the owner escaped, he was last seen wearing a YELLOW T-Shirt, (in sympathy),
and is known locally as "the DON"!! Anyone seen him around - call crimestoppers-@-stavros!!

went in there two years ago everything was pretty much still there, even cases of stella.
one of the waiters at the athina hinted at it now being owned by corfu mafia.
dont know how true it was but will check out june 2011, cant wait, my 7th time in ss then, always feels like coming home when i get there.
put a couple of pics on my flickr page showing the view fro the roof (helyou2007) flickr page

It looked much worse this year, but it's not owned by the Mafia - or it would still be in business!! LOL
