Rethymno hotellia

Plussat: It was a fabulous welcome - provided with drinks and a cheese platter on arrival in the lovely courtyard restaurant. Was the best arrival of any hotel we have stayed at. The room was very large and the staff wonderful. The restaurant was excellent for breakfast, which was included in the price, and for dinner. The location was very central, close to everything in the old town, yet it was quiet.

Miinukset: The bathroom did not have a shower and the room (and only window) was facing a rundown building. This unfortunately required keeping the blinds closed which did make the room dark and closed in. In addition, the bathroom had a glass wall that backed on to the common staircase. This made it difficult to block the light at night and did allow for some other guest noise, including accessing of the spa on the floor above us.

Plussat: The manager was extremely friendly and helpful. Excellent breakfast.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The hospitality, the welcome drink and snack, the unique room and many more ..

Miinukset: Cappuccino at breakfast is a standard in almost all 4* and 5* hotels I visited in Europe and should not be at optional costs

Plussat: The white suite is exceptional . Very well decorated , huge bed and so on .... The breakfast is also of high quality .

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Everything was top notch! I loved the courtyard where they serve breakfast and dinner. It’s filled with plants, it has a huge date palm tree, a lime tree full o& fruits, pots of plants everywhere! The candy suite that we stayed in had a balcony which was pretty secluded. We used it often, for reading books and having a glass of wine. The staff are so warm and caring and genuinely interested in us and our needs. The dinner was outstanding. They do have a reputation for being the top quality restaurant in town, but honestly, the food was even better than I expected to be. I would stay in Avli every time I’m in Rethymno, no question about it.

Miinukset: There is nothing not to like!

Plussat: Breakfast was excellent as were the staff and beautiful garden and restaurant. If you stay at the Avli you could not wish for a more stunning hotel and location.

Plussat: The room was very clean and beautiful and food was really good. The staff was amazingly friendly and helpful especially Stelios (reception) who is btw a total cutie <3 for whom u will wanna come back for hehehe.He helped us a lot to find great places to have fun in rethimno and we hug him and thank him for his help. Oh and the jacuzzy was great and u have a great view of the city there as well.

Miinukset: I dont have anything negative to say about this place everyrhing was amazing.

Plussat: Everything was magic - the room, location and service was really amazing. Special shout to Stelios who was just fantastic with communications before arrival and equally welcoming after we arrived. On our last day, we had an early 7am departure and Stelios had prepared a little takeaway breakfast feast the evening before - we had not requested it so it was a lovely touch and epitomised the service. We would love to return!

Plussat: Spotlessly clean, great location (close to the city center but very quiet neighborhood, lots of basic amenities / shops nearby), very helpful and friendly staff!

Miinukset: Nothing to not like!

Plussat: The hotel is brand new, comfortable beds, great breakfast, well isolated.

Plussat: This hotel was a great find and we were persuaded to stay an extra night. The room was very modern and clean with amazing facilities - luxurious feel and some extra touches to enhance our stay - fab shower! Breakfast was amazing - rooftop restaurant, wonderful food and friendly staff. I wouldn't hesitate recommending to anyone. Thanks for making our stay so memorable.

Miinukset: Minor hiccup with the aircon but sorted by staff quickly - had to be reset at reception.

Miinukset: One of us has celiaky desease and is therefore gluten intolerant. We therefore asked for gluten free breakfast a week in advance and the hotel wrote that it was arranged. When we came the offered NO gluten free breakfast alternative. This was very disappointing and disrespectful

Plussat: Menta City Boutique Hotel is the modern and comfortable hotel with friendly staff. Room was comfortable and clean, with good bed, bathroom (shower was great!). Towels were changed and room was cleaned every day. There is a rinse basin in the room. Balcony had table and chairs with view on the pool. Staff is very friendly, hospitable and ready to help 24 hours per day.

Miinukset: It was a little bit noisy from street side (especially in the evenings) due to constantly cars moving. Breakfasts are monotonous.

Plussat: Service was impeccable! Rooms are of a very decent size and in a great location. The breakfast spread was fresh and most items were made from scratch using fresh ingredients from their own garden.

Miinukset: Nothing!

Plussat: Everything, absolutely everything. Breakfast was lovely too, I would highly recommend it. Very chic hotel, modern, clean and conveniently located. Spacious rooms, very good lighting, comfortable bed, nice decoration, fancy lobby.

Miinukset: The hairdryer is not great.

Plussat: All of it. Cozy, great food, great pool, excellent service

Miinukset: Everything was perfect expect for the location. It is pretty far from the old town were everything happens

Plussat: Everything was perfect and super peaceful.

Miinukset: The only reason I'm not giving 10 points is because of the lack of parking slots.

Plussat: Value for money!

Plussat: Nice hotel, friendly staff

Plussat: aamiainen loistava

Miinukset: sijainti

Plussat: This hotel is very well positioned (max 5 minutes walking to the beach, to restaurants, to shops and a super-market). It has a very friendly staff and owner and also a very good breakfast. It's the perfect place to stay and relax with your family. You can stay at the pool and have a drink at the bar or you can go to the beach. Our time here was great!

Miinukset: Just one suggestion: the light bulbs in the room should have warm colors, the current blue-neon lights are a little bit not welcoming.

Plussat: Location suited our needs (we were going to a wedding locally). Pool was very good with Roman steps. Parking just outside. Short walk to the beach, shops, cafes and bars. Bed was comfortable, and bathroom newly renovated. Staff were friendly.

Miinukset: There was an smell of damp and drains each time you opened the door to our room. The breakfast location was good - outside. However the quality of the coffee/orange/juices were poor. If you arrived towards the end of the breakfast period there was only a limited selection.

Plussat: Cosy family place. 3 minutes walk to the public beach (chairs are 3 euro each). 2 minutes walk to Platanias shops and restaurants. 2 pools and beautiful rooms. Great hosts.

Miinukset: If only there was a private beach...

Plussat: Aamiainen oli aivan täydellinen!

Plussat: The staff were all very nice and Incredibly helpful. The first room we were given wasn't really suitable for our needs, but we were able to change the next morning for one that was, which was great. The place was very clean and modern and the breakfast was amazing. Our flight was leaving late so we also managed to get a room for the day which was a great help with two kids! the high reviews are totally deserved. I can't recommend it enough.

Miinukset: The WiFi signal in the rooms was pretty poor. The draught beer at the bar is not great.

Plussat: We absolutely loved this hotel and it exceeded both our expectations. It was a last minute booking as we were in the area and we weren’t expecting much. The price we paid proved to be amazing value for what we got; from facilities, the amazing room which was new, super clean & super modern design and amazing comfort. The included breakfast with lots of in house baked food & jams and great selection. We were also surprised at the level of hospitality and professionalism of all staff. This is a family owned hotel who have worked very hard to build this business and really appreciate every guest. The gift upon check out was unexpected and very much appreciated.

Miinukset: We genuinely don’t have a single complaint.

Plussat: It is a quite family hotel which was exactly what we were looking for. The apartment was very comfortable and implacably clean. A beautiful beach just 5-10 min walk away form the hotel is another bonus. I would be happy to go back and can definitely recommend this hotel to everyone who is looking for a quite family vacation!

Plussat: Aamiainen oli hyvä ja hotelli hyvin siisti.

Miinukset: Varatessa majoitusta, tarjolla oli paljon kuvia huoneista, mutta todellisuudessa huone voi olla mitä vain, eikä se mitä kuvien perusteella luulee saavansa. Tämän kanssa pitäisi olla tarkempi.

Plussat: All of the staff were beyond friendly, helpful and welcoming. The rooms are very modern, clean and practical - but they are charming as well. Multiple pools, including options for (young) children.

Plussat: Almost everything. The room was excellent.

Miinukset: Would feel a bit better if our every move wasn't watched by the owners

Plussat: Our first visit to Crete so we were unsure what to expect in terms of the area we chose. Maybe because it was September, most tourists in Platanias were over 40 so it suited us perfectly! Amazing apartment - modern design and high-end finish , spotlessly clean, everything needed supplied. Staff were lovely - friendly and helpful yet not obtrusive or pushy. breakfast fine. location excellent for exploring region - easy access to Rethmyno by bus or an enjoyable walk along the coast. We stayed in Mary Hotel for 2 weeks and never got bored. great restaurants and bars nearby with lots of veggie options. fantastic beach a short stroll away. Overall would recommend for a relaxing holiday with plenty to do and see when you want to - take a trip to the south coast, its beautiful!

Plussat: Uskomattoman ystävällinen ja hyvä palvelu...kiitos Mama, Manuela, Giorgio ja vstsinkin Konstantinos

Miinukset: Punttisali ehkä vähän puutteellinen

Plussat: Friendly welcome with a welcome drink. We received a lot of information at the reception for things to do in the neighborhood and restaurants. Wonderfull breakfast from 8 to 11, the scrambled eggs with salmon are the best.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Great location, quiet but close to everything. Staff gave us some fantastic local restaurant recommendations.

Plussat: Staff were incredible and very hard working. The room was immaculate and the location perfect for a city stay.

Plussat: The choices for breakfast and the option of having it brought to one's room was great. The room overall was lovely and comfortable, and the staff were incredibly helpful. The hotel is also located very centrally. I recommend it highly.

Miinukset: My only complaint is that there was occasionally a strong smell of drains emanating from the bathroom. I think this was because my room was on the ground level and it rained quite heavily over the weekend. It was quite off-putting when it did occur, but it only happened on a few occasions.

Plussat: The breakfast was outstanding with a lot of choices. Location was great, and most important sites were within walking distance. Inside of Old town. Service was excellent, everything provided which was needed.

Plussat: The staff is super friendly, the rooms are super clean, the location is premium and is walking distance from all major attractions, the breakfast is excellent and gives you some chance to also taste the local cuisine if you wish (Crete breakfast is awesome!), So to conclude - HIGHLY RECCOMENDED!

Plussat: Great city hotel. Very well located. Good value for money.

Plussat: Loistava valinta! Huone oli tilava, kaunis ja siisti, hotelli erinomaisella paikalla lähellä vanhaa kaupunkia ja rantaa. Hotellin oma parkkipaikka oli pieni mutta toimiva, ainakin nyt kun sesonki ei vielä ollut päällä. Aamupala oli erinomainen ja runsas. Erityiskiitos siivoojille, jotka olivat aurinkoisen ystävällisiä ja pitivät huoneet ja yleiset tilat putipuhtaina!

Plussat: huoneisto oli ihan ok,tilava ja kaikinpuolin hyvä!

Miinukset: en pitänyt joka-aamuisesta siivouksesta.huoneesta puuttui kahvinkeitin,oli lueteltu varusteissa.televisiosta ei näkynyt yhtään urheilukanavaa,ie liioin ylen 1 kanavaa,näkyvät useissa muissa hotelleissa!aamiainen ok,ainoa miinus oli liian pieni n.litran vetoinen ja aina tyhjä kahvitermari.

Plussat: Convenient hotel, good breakfast

Miinukset: The bathroom are clean but ugly, the painting is not new.

Plussat: The standard of the room was very good. It was a friendly and well organised hotel. The breakfast is excellent and the staff are delightful. Location very good for enjoying the town and beach.

Miinukset: Connectivity to internet on 2nd floor was patchy but fine in the centre of the building.

Plussat: The hotel in general is very clean, staff is friendly. The breakfast is excellent. The location is good as it is very close to the beach.

Miinukset: Our room (301) had a bad layout, however was still ok for our stay.

Plussat: Delicious breakfast. Good location and quiet, comfortable room.

Plussat: Great hotel in great location in Rethymno. Just few minutes walk from the beach and the old city. The stuff is lovely and always willing to help. Breakfast is great. Great value for money. We will surely love to come back.

Plussat: Excellent facilities and amazing breakfast. Parking on site

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Henkilökunta oli erittäin ystävällisiä ja avuliaita. Hotelli vanhassakaupungissa, missä kaikki lähellä ja hotellille oli lyhyt matka kävellä linja-autoasemalta. Hotellissa oli TODELLA rauhallista nukkua.

Miinukset: Kovat sängyt.

Plussat: Great staff, great breakfast, spotless room, great location. Perfect, will defo return.

Plussat: Location right in town which is what we wanted. It was only an overnight stay so we were not bothered about a pool etc. This was more 'boutique'. Very friendly and helpful staff. Breakfast was in a little courtyard.

Miinukset: i could not shut the window that looked into the centre of the hotel, but that may have been my mistake. As it was only one night and we took our valuables with us, it did not matter. I am not that keen either on glass bathroom doors, although it was not clear glass!

Plussat: The Bellagio is in a perfect location in the old town with all the great places to eat close by and the beach a 5 minute walk away. Our room was immaculate and we had an excellent nights sleep on the very comfortable bed during our stay. Breakfast was always very good with a wide selection of local fruit, pastries and produce plus the omelettes which were very special and tasty. What made the stay special for us was our hosts, nothing was too much trouble for them and they were always available to speak to and help with advice on where to eat, which beaches to visit and with all round good local knowledge. If you are staying in Rethymno the Bellagio should be top of your list to stay in. Excellent!

Plussat: The hosts were very genuine, helpful and motherly. Really felt like home away from home! They gave us good suggestions and also good advice.

Miinukset: The beds were a little hard for our liking, but otherwise the hotel experience was perfect!

Plussat: Very friendly and helpful staff. Excellent choices for breakfast. Tea or coffee and biscuits offered each time we came in for no cost.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Really lovely and comfortable room with a private hammam which was welcome. Close to a very good parking station so overall it was very convenient to use as a base to explore the rest of Crète. Staff were incredibly helpful and hospitable

Plussat: Excellent service and breakfast. Quality decor and ambiance. Great location

Miinukset: Air conditioner unit not working properly and leaking water. No tea making facility in the room. Rather expensive

Plussat: Breakfast was one of the best we have experienced over the past 20 years ! Staff were excellent and always on hand to assist, overall facilities were excellent.

Miinukset: Cannot find any complaints with our stay.

Plussat: The breakfast buffet was fantastic! We loved the variety. The front desk staff helped us a great deal with recommendations. We loved the pool area and the beach. Antonio was delightful and gave excellent service. Our room was very clean, comfortable and relaxing, to say the least!

Miinukset: More lighting over the vanity.

Plussat: it was a lovely hotel we had been staying up the coast and decided to stay in Rethymno for one more night and found your hotel. The staff were lovely the hotel was very clean and it had a lovely pool and a nice bar and great beach and also great value for money

Plussat: Hotel is on the first line and provides its clients with the sun beads and umbrellas. The room was quite OK, with nice large bed and a balcony. However, the large bed did not have one mattress on it, but two separate mattresses, which should be noted, but it did not disturb us a lot. The breakfast was nice and had choices of hot, cold dishes, fruits and sweets. Besides, it is very nice to have a breakfast on the summer terrace facing the sea. Also the hotel has nice pool, which was nice when the sea was stormy. The pool bar serves good drinks.

Miinukset: When choosing the hotel by stars, you expect not only services that could be provided, but a certain level of accommodation. The furniture was quite outdated and the bathroom was also quite uncomfortable with a narrow bathtub, which made showering not too comfortable with the curtain sticking all over you. Besides, the bathroom did not have a built-in ventilation, but a window, which was obviously facing the neighbors balcony, and when our neighbors smoked our bathroom was full of the cigarette smell.

Plussat: Very comfortable hotel. Very attentive and frienbdfull personnel. Simply absolutely was better then great. Very good service everywhere

Miinukset: I can not find something that I did not like there

Plussat: Everything about this hotel is fantastic. The food is amazing, so much choice and lovely and fresh. All the staff are so friendly, especially Nicole and Mario who worked behind the bar. Will definitely be returning next time I'm in Rethymno.

Plussat: Clean and nice room Nice bathroom Friendly staff

Miinukset: Only filter coffee in breakfast, no cappuccino available in the bar No available parking

Plussat: Its great,clean,amazing food,friendly atmosphere,near the beach,quiet place to relax,nice walk on the side beach to the old town,very helpful staff and good customers we met.

Miinukset: We could have stayed longer.There is nothing we could say it was a little bit minus.All

Plussat: I was here for 1 week, and felt so welcomed by staff from the moment I checked in. It was hard to leave. All around staff are friendly and with smiles. It does help that hotel is not overcrowded as not too big. Nikolita and Mario working the outside bar are great hosts. Can spend hours just having chats with them. Location was fantastic as the beach is around the corner. There were few occasions where I missed dinner service hours due to travelling. However, there's a great spot Sofias around the corner that do Greek cuisine at great price. Location is great too! about 30 minute walk to old town of Rathymno, 5 euro taxi trip or electric scooter. Nights spent in Bora Bora beach bar (5 minutes from hotel) and LUX in old town. Do recommend, Rooms are extremely clean! Loved the fact bathroom and shower units are separated. Air conditioning in room is very effective, were couple of nights where I underestimated and did get cold.

Miinukset: I had a car rented, it's very rare to find parking in front of the hotel. Ended up parking by the beach just a short stroll away.

Plussat: really good breakfast with lot of choice, and nice and helpfull staff during your breakfast

Miinukset: expensive for a standard room, no service, you can find much better in this area

Plussat: Superb staff - always eager and quick to help. Owner was on site every single day and always had the time for a chat. Bar staff were fantastic - you never waited more than a couple of minutes.

Plussat: Lovely family run hotel

Plussat: First of all.. What a lovely staff! I must say Olga, Debbie and Leonidas made us feel very welcome from the moment we arrived. The rooms are clean and modern and the beds better than your average Greek ones. We had a huge lovely balcony towards the pool and the back- we preferred the pool side. The location is great- only 10 min walk to old town approximately and just by the beach without hearing the noise from the beach road where all the car goes. The cleaning staff was also very respectful and kind and we appreciated them very much. The apartment has what you need in terms of cutlery, glasses, tools etc. around the corner you will find a Supermarket. We can certainly recommend this hotel!

Plussat: Very accommodating staff and they tried their best to make your stay comfortable. Great breakfast & cute cat hanging around during breakfast time. Clean rooms and my friend actually had stayed in this hotel 10 years ago, he said it was totally renovated and much much better, with same great friendly staff & Mr Leonidas :)

Miinukset: Love everything about the hotel

Plussat: This Hotel is fabulous. We stayed for a week and had the most wonderful time. A family run hotel who made our holiday so lovely and memorable. The staff are lovely. The room we had was gorgeous. Two balconies, air conditioning in the bedroom and the sitting room and a fully equipped kitchen. Immaculately clean! Beds very comfortable. Breakfast was a mix of cooked and continental with fresh fried eggs, bacon, sausage. Feta and spinach filo rolls are amazing. Good choice of pastries. Fresh bread, fruit, cold meats and cheeses. Just perfect to start the day. We highly recommend this lovely place. We will definitely return if we come back to Rethymno

Miinukset: We loved it!!

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: Charge you for everything over and above

Plussat: Great staff, great location, very clean and comfortable room

Miinukset: Everything was great

Plussat: Great location, very friendly staff, and really enjoyed their pool. It's probably only 50 m from a very nice beach as well, but not so close such that you hear traffic noise.

Miinukset: We were warned about it in advance by the hotel before arrival, but the only room they had left for us was at demi-basement which doesn't have a view.

Plussat: Very friendly staff, great location and good facilities.

Plussat: Great for kids between the various pools and beach also a contained kids playroom plus a playground. Not far from Rethymno, easy to get to by car, bus or taxi. Staff were extremely helpful and flexible. We were offered the choice of three rooms and ended up in room 922, which was the best room at the hotel between the size and the views.

Miinukset: Not much. The room’s shower water pressure wasn’t great at times and there weren’t many hooks for hanging towels in the bathrooms. Also the air conditioners were placed where the air from the vents would hit the beds, which made it difficult to figure out the best setting to help us sleep comfortably. We figured it out after a few nights.

Plussat: Everything was perfect, in fact better than we expected:)! If it should be anything to claim, then it should be the coffe. In a 4 star hotel we really expect real coffe, not weak substitut from pulver machine. So, next year we looking forward to real espresso machines :). All the best! Erik and Elena Sandgren , room 426.

Miinukset: As above, the coffe...
