Pros +
- Front desk / So nice Informative / Great person
- Best location. Nice room with balcony although I did not use it because it is quite small and in addition pity not to walk arround with this best location in the old city close to everything.
- The hotel is very elegant and wonderful. The location is terrific. The room was very big and very comfortable. The breakfast was great, with very good variety. There is a nice little bar, pool area and several sitting areas. A favorite hotel for us.
Cons -
- Room was quite simple to this level of hotel. Breskfast was fine but I expected more
- The parking and drop off were not clear to us, but we got a spot in the private lot less than a block from the hotel and everything was perfect.
- The fact we had to leave the passports with reception.

The location was fun in old town, and the pool was super relaxing to sit by. Breakfast was good. Facilities are a little bit older, but everything was super clean, and the a/c ran well!
It's a nice hotel in the heart of Rethymno. Clean, relatively spacious.
The fact we had to leave the passports with reception.
We loved the central location of the hotel. The staff was warm and attentive.
The parking was tricky but acceptable.
Nice well maintained hotel. Room was spacious and had real conditioning! Breakfast had a large selection of stuff
A perfect but quiet location in the heart of the Old Town. A smart hotel with a nice pool, comfortable rooms, fresh towels and cleaned every day. A very good breakfast selection but don't expect a full English! Highly recommended.
A spacious breakfast room with the option eating out in the garden area. Up on the roof ( access on the 3rd floor ) there was a great view of the hotel pool from above.....the pool was very pleasant, with enough sunbeds for all who were there. From the balcony of our street - facing room we had a good view of life in the street outside. Location was very good: close to the old town area, easy to find from the bus station and very close to the Venetian fortress.
nothing to say here.
A/c and breakfast
Bed frame feet at footboard corners accident waiting to happen.
Location is amazing
Bad smell came out of the shower drain and filled the entire room
Location very friendly and helpful staff the pool
Bottle water only supplied once no tea or coffee in the room the shower needs updating wasn’t very good
Staff helpful and friendly . Property clean
No tea making facilities in room
Great location. Very friendly staff.
Std room looked onto other dwelling. No privacy on balcony.
Location, nice pool, lovely staff. Shop right across road for cheap water and a varied amount of everything- you have a little fridge in room, use it for lunch stuff (and cold beers :))
Breakfast spread a bit ‘meh’ (go to galero), no coffee facilities in rooms, fridge in room a little noisy- but with air on you don’t hear it anyway. If you are a light sleeper bring ear plugs.
We loved the pool and the fact that there was parking (10 Euro) right next to the hotel! Parking is challenging in old town, so this is a big plus! Everyone who worked at the hotel was warm and friendly. There is also a handy grocery store across the street!
It was totally fine! The only thing I didn’t like was the coffee at the breakfast— it was a powdered espresso from a machine… You can get decent coffee (from ground beans at the bar for extra $), but why not have a good espresso machine at the breakfast buffett?
Hotel right in the middle of Rethimno with paid parking (10 Euro) available. Room had everything we needed. Hot shower, cold AC. The included morning breakfast was absolutely delicious as well. Do not underestimate the value of parking in Rethimno. It has a very cute and compact old town! Great hotel! My wife and I recommend it.
Value for money, good location, excellent staff. Comfortable bed.
Good location. Value for money. Excellent staff.
Location good. Character great-comfortable with a traditional feel.
Our room only had a “Juliet Balcony” onto street.
