Olympic Palladium ★★★

📍 Moatsou 42, Rethymno

"Good clean central but basic hotel. Breakfast was OK. Would book again."

Atrium Ambiance Hotel
9.1 (63 reviews)

Atrium Ambiance Hotel ★★★★

📍 Mark. Portaliou 24, Rethymno

"Okay, let me start by saying this hotel is okay. It’s a good base, close enough to everything. We have had a lovely time but… … it needs work. We booked the executive room with jacuzzi. Personal choice, we always have a jacuzzi. Now we do have reasonable expectations especially when at check in you are told this is their best room. Now on first impressions it’s lovley. Big bed that is really comfortable. Lots of storage, living room area that we didn’t really use, good shower and sinks, toilet is fine, but seat cracks when you sit in it, making it noisy in the night and a little worrying every time you go. There is also a very strong chemical/acetone smell when you run hot water, not sure what it is, but we have both struggled with dry, itchy skin. In places the room is tired and needs attention, like damaged furniture and the fridge is small, I’ve had some exceptional practice at fridge Jenga! Balcony is lovley and big, 2 loungers and a table, two chairs and table, big beanbag lounger, large parasol and of course the jacuzzi/hot tub. Sadly the jacuzzi is very old, quite a few of the jets don’t work, head rest missing and the others degraded. The biggest downfall is the birds… they see the hot tub as theirs, they visit to drink and bath… and poo… everywhere. The glass around the edge is covered in it. They perch on the pergola and poo in it, we had to have it emptied and cleaned numerous times and for the last 5 days haven’t used it. See pictures. Internet is an issue, it’s terrible, so if you don’t have a deal look for an overseas eSIM because just loading a simple social media page is painful. I usually do my food shop for when we get home… haven’t managed it this time. Talking about food… it’s terrible. In 12 days I have managed to find one thing I liked… a ham and mushroom pasta bake. Even at 6:15pm when dinner starts everything is cold… and if you decide to buy a drink with your meal, be prepared to be hassled to pay for it whilst you eat. we’ve given up and found some lovley restaurants on the front. And make sure you try the bakery out of the back door and turn right, on the opposite side of the road. Delicious xx Can’t really comment on the bar nor pool. It’s small, we didn’t use it but looks to not have sun all day. Some staff are lovley, especially the cleaning team. some clearly used to work in a prison. Would we return… to beautiful Rethymno yes, we have already booked. Just not here"

Petradi Beach Lounge Hotel
8.0 (47 reviews)

Petradi Beach Lounge Hotel ★★★★

📍 Stamathioudaki 79, Rethymno

"The Hotel is located at a 25 min walking distance from the old town. There is no on site parking. The nearest free parking is 10 to 12 mins by walk. The family room is not appropriately designed. The main bed is in a loft with no ventilation or air conditioner. The toilet is very small. The breakfast at the restaurant is very sparse. Expected much better. This is not a value for money hotel."

Sea Front Old Town

Sea Front Old Town ★★★

📍 Arkadiou 159, Rethymno

"Excellent room, high level of cleanliness, staff could not be more helpful and friendly. Very comfortable bed. Good shower. Perfect location in the heart of Old Town. Would certainly recommend. The one way system can be a tad difficult but the staff were so friendly and helpful with directions and parking, I would not count this as a negative."

Mansio Boutique Hotel ★★★

📍 Papamichelaki 23, Rethymno

"We recently stayed here during our trip to Crete and it was a delightful experience. The hotel is new and beautifully designed, and exceptionally clean, which made our stay all the more comfortable. The modern aesthetic and attention to detail really stood out. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, always available to help with a smile. Their genuine hospitality made us feel right at home and ensured that everything went smoothly throughout our stay. The location is perfect, you are right in Old Town, close to the water, shops, and all of the restaurants. Everything is a quick walk. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Rethymno area."

Kyma Suites Beach Hotel Hotels in Rethymno

Kyma Suites Beach Hotel

"Spent 10 nights here. Location is great as right on the seafront prom. Shops and restaurants all around. 10 mins walk to the long golden beach and free sun beds. Close to marina and old town. Housekeeping daily. Breakfast nice especially the delicious orange juice. Room was clean, a good size with lots of storage and a large bathroom. There was a very large step into the shower - stepping over the side of a jacuzzi bath. Not ideal for all and future guests should be made aware as this could be dangerous. We paid extra for a sea view room but were disappointed. Our room was very noisy on the first floor over the main road and taxi rank. We saw trees, traffic, tops of boats and masts - just a bit of the sea. Sure this would improve from a higher floor. Staff we met were professional and polite but a more friendlier, personal approach would have been nice especially as we were there 10 days."

Kriti Beach Hotel Hotels in Rethymno

Kriti Beach Hotel

"This is our fourth stay at the Kiriti Beach Hotel, which we definitely consider our "Happy Place." The hotel's location is perfect, with a beautiful beach right across the street and the old town just a short walk away. The rooms are very well-equipped and immaculately clean. We opt for the half-board option and are consistently impressed by the excellent quality and wide variety of food. Above all, it's the wonderful staff that makes this hotel truly special. Their professionalism, friendliness, and helpfulness are exceptional. I am pleased to say that they have become friends, and we eagerly look forward to seeing them each time. We are not alone in our appreciation, as many guests return year after year, with some having come for over 12 years. A huge thank you to all the staff for making our stay so wonderful. We look forward to seeing all of you again next year!"

Elina Hotel Apartments Hotels in Rethymno

Elina Hotel Apartments

"Dear traveler....this hotel hosted us for a few nights in the city of Rethymno after a suggestion from friends and even locals. I think it is an honest accommodation proposal depending on the surrounding hotels and its price is reasonable in relation to the prices available. What impressed me is that quite a few locals were staying... It is what the 3 stars indicate.... that is. Advantages: Central, you can do everything on foot... beach... old town... food... etc. The room is spacious with a fully equipped kitchen... separate room... living room etc. Cleanliness is good... and quiet Staff is super polite and helpful, available to answer questions and give directions. Breakfast is typical... not super rich but satisfactory. Of course AC TV fridge... complete bathroom... everything is good... it also has a balcony. Small pool... but it serves a need... but the space is limited as are the sunbeds... 24-hour reception... Negatives: It does not serve room service.. It also does not have a snack bar... for drinks... coffee... food etc. after breakfast. However, it has tables where you can sit and order whatever you want from right across the street. It has a mini market right next door... even for coffee... pizzeria... 20 meters away.. Food next door for sandwiches... and everything is around. Now time shows its wear and tear but it stands decently for its price and category. It does not have parking... but there is a public one very close by... you can find a free or paid space. I think it is a good case... now if you are looking for luxury... you can go elsewhere... but with double... triple prices per star and so on. I think it is open all year round... and this may serve some. Anyway, I didn't regret my choice...and I have stayed in other hotels in the city before. Recommended.."

"Hotel location is OK, very close to the beach, 20 minutes walk from the old town. But the hotel facilities are too old and too general. The advantage is that you can cook by yourself. After playing in Greece for so many days, I really want to make a hot noodles by myself, so I went to the nearby supermarket to buy ingredients and make it myself."

Macaris Suites & Spa Hotels in Rethymno

Macaris Suites & Spa

"The environment was nice. I stayed in a loft suite with a view of the sea from the balcony. It's next to Resimonon, on a hillside, and parking is easy. Crete is actually quite large, so tourists don't significantly impact the lives of the locals. You can drive to various beaches. For just a few euros per person, you can get a parasol and a lounge chair. Some are even free. On my last day, I randomly picked one and just relaxed on the beach, enjoying the sea breeze and the view – very comfortable. The Blue Lagoon is beautiful, but it really tests your driving skills, car condition, and physical fitness! The meat on Crete is the best, and they have a unique traditional grilling method – grilling it above the oven, surrounding it – so fragrant!"

Atrium Ambiance Hotel ★★★★
"Location: This was perfect for us - we didn’t want to be too close to town but also not too far. It’s about 20 minutes walk along the seafront, which is just 2 minutes away. Hotel: The hotel is modern and clean. Some of the corridors are open to the air and it can mean that the noise travels. Room Location: Number 401. Our room was supposed to be a “Twin Deluxe Room (Poolview)” - it wasn’t in a twin setup but that wasn’t a problem. Unfortunately we only got a corner view of the pool. I deliberately booked this type of room as others had mentioned it was quieter than the street view. On some hotel web sites it is described as “courtyard facing” (rather than road) with a pool view. What we actually had was a pool bar view and road. This meant that it was very noisy on the entertainment nights; and although the entertainment did not go on too late, the banging Ibiza music did. We really couldn’t be bothered packing up again and the desk told us there were only 2 nights with entertainment so we made do with ear plugs. The room was cleaned daily and the sheets changed after 3 nights. Plenty of storage. The water temperature was very hit and miss. My husband would come out of the shower complaining it was cold and then when I got in it was fine! Strange but the hair dryer had a really short cord which made drying my hair very difficult lol! Generally I didn’t sleep very well, but that wasn’t the fault of the hotel - other than what appeared to be an alarm test at 4am one morning when we all traipsed down to the pool. Nobody seemed to be in charge of the evacuation, which I found very odd. We all just milled around and then went back in when the alarm stopped. Food: Was always plentiful if a little boring. I have to say that I did experience a bad tummy on our departure morning which I can directly relate to part of my meal the previous night. It was annoying that there are no drinks included with the evening meal - even water, tea or coffee! Staff: All the staff were brilliant, especially Nikos who helped us understand a bit more about Greek beers. Overall my opinion is that the hotel isn’t bad (if you get the right room) but it’s not spectacular either. My adjective would be “unremarkable”"

Wonderful hotel and resort just book you won't regret it."

Petradi Beach Lounge Hotel ★★★★
"We were a bit hesitant before coming here because of all the conflicting reviews, but it turned put to be one of the best vacations ever :) What was I looking for: - not a super fancy, expensive hotel as we wanted to go out and eat at various different restaurants - Check - direct access to the sea - Check - decent size pool and pool bar - Check - clean rooms and surroundings - Check - intimate vibe, boutique hotel, nice staff - Check Some useful points: - the breakfast is kind of basic BUT you will find things to eat every morning - the beach area is narrow and not really clean / maintained and the entrance a little rocky BUT once you get past the rocks it’s lovely, sandy and water is very clean - the rooms are small, it’s true we lived from the suitcase (but we are used to it :D) BUT we were still comfortable (AC works great, bed is very comfy, there are plenty of hangers, shower was good) It’s my 4th time in Crete and I’ve stayed at fancier hotels but to be honest I cannot say I wouldn’t consider coming back here, we felt great and had everything you can possibly want from a holiday. Places where we ate nearby (all good) Cavo - the absolute best in terms of food and vibe. Make sure to make a reservation as it gets full in the evening. It’s a 5-7 minutes walk for the hotel. Tanepa - huge portions, tasty food, located 3-5 minutes from Petradi Prima Plora - nice here as well, 5 min from the hotel We found these places much nicer than the restaurants in Rethymno, the food is better. It’s a big plus the hotel is located next to these :) So overall, we recommend Petradi 👍"

"The location couldn’t be better, right across from the sea, offering that calming coastal feeling from the moment you arrive. The hotel itself has a refined, elegant style that makes you feel instantly relaxed. Our room was very comfortable, especially the excellent mattress. Service was very friendly, and Filio (hotel manager) was always available and genuinely helpful throughout our stay. Highly recommended for a tasteful and welcoming seaside getaway!"

"The room is large, the terrace pool and the view are very good, the pool is very clean, and the hotel's private beach is better than the beach next to it. The restaurant is very good, the five-course dinner is impeccable and worth the money. The snacks provided by the beach bar are also very delicious. The only drawback is that the double bed is not ideal and the bedding is not comfortable enough."
