It gave me some cause for concern to read that lot of Romanza regulars are staying elswhere in 2010.So much so that i searched every review forum on the internet to find the numbers involved and their possible reasons for doing so.The only adverse comments i could find were on Trip Advisor they were for oct 2009 hols and mainly complained about the breakfasts.This caused the owner Mike to post a reply blaming the pittance he receives from Thomson for Oct bookings.None of these poor reviews appeared to come from Romanza regulars.The other thing that is  slightly strange is that 2 of them were posted Jan/Feb ,a long delay for someone who had something to get of their chest.
I honestly know of only one person a friend of mine who in 2010 instead of visiting the Romanza twice is making one visit .The second visit is to the Teresa where i believe he got a good price.
I am not disputing what you say is true only that i cannot find any evidence.

They are people we've met who seem to be going to the old part of SS en-masse.

Well where-ever they go - it's still in San Stef!!
Mike don't worry -you are relatively young still so the brain should work well!
I am just a few years younger than you, but my brain is still only 30!!
Must be my job and being around the Kids and grand kids!!
Trouble is my body is not as young as the brain!!

However - I would like to swap my hip for a fit one - so I can run up the hills again!
I am trying to come to terms with Arthritis setting in - and what I can do to stave off the inevitable repair job for a few years yet!
Been very Athletic until last 6-7 years when I slowed down and put some weight on!
Linda says it's not a death sentence but some days it hard to convince me!! LOL

Hi Sandra
Your first posting saying lots of people are leaving the Romanza concerned me.Your second posting saying people were leaving EN MASSE both astounded and disappointed me.Ever since joining the forum i have spoke my mind on all subjects with no malice intended.This applies in this case.It disappoints me that on a forum that strongly supports San Stefanos and its people you make a statement that roughly translated means the rats are leaving the sinking ship.This in my opinion is a kick in the teeth for the management team who took over the Romanza at the start of 2009 who in my opinion and the vast majority of fellow guests are doing a brilliant job.The last thing they want at this time of economic problems.Lets have a look at the facts then let me know if you can justify your statements.
Leo & Jenny left the Romanza at the end of 2008 with it rated approx no6 hotel in Corfu on Trip Advisor.The talk on all the forums was the Romanza would  not be as good in future.
Katie,Alex and family took over in 2009 and following numerous excellent reviews it rose to the No1 hotel in Corfu by mid season.A position it kept until the Oct reviews mentioned in my previous posting.
As I post the Romanza is still rated the No3 hotel in all Corfu.
So in all honesty Sandra i  cannot see how your comments can be justified.
That is unless you or the people who are leaving the Romanza know differerent.
Having said all that i will still let Don buy me a pint when we meet
No hard feelings
