    Pros +

    • Clean, great location across the boardwalk, lovely view of the beach. Nice breakfast. An elevator.
    • Everything was perfect. The view to the sea was amazing and the hosts incredible. All the stuff was very friendly. Their restaurant have very good food and the beach is right across the street. The walk to old town is short and very nice as you pass a lot of restaurants. If you ride a bit to the nearby streets you can park the car. There was only one day when we couldn't find a parking spot but we parked at the port parking (5min-10min walking). Totally recommend it. Thank you for everything ❤️❤️❤️
    • Super location right across from beach and free beach chair and towels. Balcony views of ocean are excellent.

    Cons -

    • Small 19 inch tv screen. Parking at the next st. Gig pillows.
    • Smelling smoking late at night creeping into the room somehow. Maybe higher floor wouldn't have this problem
    • Room was a little small with not much area to unpack. Could hear the neighbors on occasion. Traffic noise was no problem at all when the balcony door was closed.

    Seeing the balcony and view as soon as I opened the door... this was the place for me. The bed was extremely comfortable. Shower had plenty of hot water and good pressure. I left the door open at night so I could listen to the waves. Breakfast was included in the restaurant/bar downstairs. Very friendly staff... made me feel at home. This property felt very safe for a solo traveler.

    Very happy that we chose this location at the beach over staying right in the town center. Alex provided a warm welcome. All rooms face the sea so the view is the best part of the deal. Spent a great deal of time on the balcony enjoying the view. Having an associated beach right across the street was a bonus as we spent one afternoon there (free sunbeds but you're expected to purchase food or drinks). Breakfast was fabulous - eggs, yogurt w/ honey, a variety of breads, ham, cheese and veggies plus fresh orange juice. Walked to the old town center in about 12 minutes.

    Room was a little small with not much area to unpack. Could hear the neighbors on occasion. Traffic noise was no problem at all when the balcony door was closed.

    Superb location with seafront balcony and allocated beach beds opposite. Beautiful view of beach stretch to castle and sunsets. Walking distance to old town easily and flat, plus bus station around 25 minutes. Excellent breakfast and room cleaned daily. Really friendly and helpful staff. Deserves more than 2 star for sure. Fully double glazed patio door excludes street traffic noise.

    Being on first floor noises from downstairs bar travel up and room walls bit thin.

    7AnaPosted on: 4-24-2025

    Nice location, in front of the beach, 15 minutes walking-distance from the city center, very good breakfast!

    No 24 hour reception and open always open, so the feeling of security for travelling alone was scarce

    10CiaranPosted on: 4-21-2025

    Excellent value for money, great location overlooking the beach, and spotless room. Nice breakfast and friendly staff.

    10CHARLES B.Posted on: 2-25-2025

    Excellent location, clean, beautiful ocean view, friendly staff, good wifi and tv channels.

    10TeodoraPosted on: 11-1-2024

    The location is exceptional in terms of proximity to the beach. It is quite noisy because of the street in front of the hotel, which is quite busy with traffic.

    10Cc_ccPosted on: 10-28-2024

    Were here for the second time, the place has been renovated and looks amazing! Everything about our stay was great: rooms were spacious enough, clean, breakfast was for us great! Not a masses hotel, very cozy! We‘ll definitely stay here next time we‘re in Rethymnon!

    10GeorgePosted on: 10-21-2024

    The view. All rooms have sea view. You can hear the sound of the waves, but also the traffic noise. However, the balcony door did an excellent job soundproofing the noise.The wifi worked very well. For guests outside EU who have to mitigate roaming costs, this could be a major plus.Fresh orange juice at breakfast from real oranges. :)The staff were very friendly and the cleaning service was excellent.

    Not really stuff that we did not like, but things that could be improved and other that needs to be taken into consideration when making reservations.The breakfast could use some variety. However, we found it very good. Some may not... it is not a buffet type.Parking could be difficult especially if you rent a big car. We found free parking places withing a few minutes walking around the hotel every night, but not easily and it was mid October. During peak season I expect this to be a bit harder.Again, I cannot say these two things I did not like. I was very happy with the breakfast and I did find free parking 6/6 nights around the hotel.

    Room, location, staff and breakfast were perfect. Highly recommend ?

    The couple in the room next to us, very inconsiderate with the TV very loud through the night and shouting to each other over the TV noise ?

    8LiaPosted on: 10-8-2024

    Perfect location in front of the sea, simple and new facilities. Breakfast could be improved with a larger supply.

    9OliviaPosted on: 10-1-2024

    This is a dream hotel. It's amazing good value.. it's small and cute but with everything that you would need for a comfortable stay. Really appreciated the family touch and the lovely breakfast with fresh orange juice. And the Greek yogurt with honey was a lovely touch. It's also directly opposite a beautiful beach.

    It was all lovely.. nothing to complain about here.

    We had a fantastic stay at Poseidon Hotel in Rethymno, Crete! This small-scale family hotel is a true gem, located right on the boulevard and the beautiful beach of Rethymno. The hotel has a lovely terrace where we enjoyed a good breakfast every morning. The rooms have been recently renovated and offer all the comfort you need, with a great bathroom and a balcony with a breathtaking view of the sea.What made our stay extra special was the hospitality of owner Alex and his wonderful team. They are all incredibly friendly and helpful, and nothing is too much trouble for them. Despite the hotel's location on the boulevard, we experienced no noise disturbance as long as the sliding door was closed. This ensured a peaceful and relaxing night's sleep.The hotel's private beach, Prasines Poseidon beach, was another highlight. The beach staff was extremely helpful, even when it came to setting up a second parasol. The service on the beach was quick and efficient, allowing us to fully enjoy our days by the sea.In short, Poseidon Hotel is an absolute recommendation for anyone looking to enjoy a relaxing holiday in Crete. Alex and his team have everything perfectly arranged.

    It was perfect.

    Alex and his team are the best,very helpful and kind. The hotel itself worths four star rating, the cleaning team make their job highly professional ! This is the best quality vs price! Bravo! You are the best!

    10MarilenaPosted on: 8-28-2024

    The hotel is located on the seafront, and the view from the balcony is amazing. The conditions in the hotel are very good, daily cleaning, and Alex a special person, who tried to fulfill all our wishes, from parking reservation to directions for visiting the island. The breakfast was very good, like the rest of the meals served in the restaurant. Thank you for everything Alex and Ioana, we will gladly return to this hotel!
