Great service, ok room
Service: excellent, staff were so great, great communication and attentive to our needs, they packed up breakfast since we had to leave very early I booked a family room expecting comfortable beds for 4 people, I ended up sleeping on this horrible mattress that has this disgusting stain, I’m in so much pain this morning! Also there is no lock on your doors, anyone can just come in if they want to, felt very unsafe especially that were on the roof top ( which sounds great but it’s not) and a bar was above us I assume cause we heard people talking and walking above us

Fantastic hotel in Rethymno
Stayed here as part of a larger trip and must say the service I received was great. From them helping to arrange an airport transfer, to a seamless check in and answering any questions about the local area.

Un hotel donde sentirse como en casa
Ante todo agradecer la atención de Eva, Gloria, Maria y la otra chica del restaurante... el personal, lo mejor. Habitación amplia, buen wifi, balcón. Piscina en la terraza con tumbonas. La comida del buffet un poco demasiado para el turista pero había opciones varias. Ubicación genial a 5 minutos de la ciudad vieja pero sin los ruidos e idas y venidas de turistas.

Sehr nette Mitarbeiter , unser Zimmer war schon ab 13 Uhr fertig . Frühstück war gut, aber einfach. Hotel ist 2 Min zu Fuss zur Innenstadt entfernt . Pool auf dem Dach sehr kalt , aber sehr schön mit dem Blick über Rethymno. Die Dusche im Bad hat eine zu kurze Duschwand, das Bad schwimmt im Anschluss an das Duschen . Unser Zimmer war leider zur Hauptstraße gelegen, extrem laut , man kann kaum schlafen bei offenem Fenster . Geschlossen ist es ok, aber viel zu stickig . Die Klimaanlage macht das Zimmer sehr kalt ., lässt sich leider nicht verstellen . Parplatzsuche ums Hotel eine Katastrophe, da braucht man viel Geduld und Zeit .
