Stalos hotellia

Plussat: Lovely spacious rooms which were cleaned everyday to a high standards. Very friendly and accommodating staff. Nice breakfast with a wide range of choices.

Miinukset: Nothing. Loved everything about the hotel.

Miinukset: I had the breakfast only. Wasn't happy with it. Only bad thing I encountered

Plussat: Braekfast, dinner were al very tastefool and Nice. IT was very quiet during the day on the whole resort. The cleaning was perfect.

Miinukset: I didn’t like the noise of the music after 22.00 hours when there were special musicevents. I Would liked to have the music played a bit softer, so it’s Nice to zit on your balcony

Plussat: Property and room were ok and very clean. Pool was cleaned daily.

Miinukset: Somehow one could not prevent smelling greediness all over the place. It started at check in when the lady in the reception required to pay tourist taxes in cash, did not give any receipt and charged 6 times greater amount than should have! We had just discussed the tax in our previous accommodation in Crete, so we knew how it was calculated and there it was possible to pay with card and it was documented also. Just didn’t feel like starting a fight immediately upon arrival. The quality of food and beverages was terrible. We ate the lunch buffet once and none of us liked it. The breakfast had plenty variety but quality of food and juices was poor. It was very first time for me to see that somebody served raw bacon on breakfast buffet... I’m glad we weren’t staying all inclusive. Even coca cola was some cheap copy! Unfortunately there aren’t that many restaurants near by but at least the few there was were serving better food than Creta Palm resort. I also found it very strange that they had a spa menu presenting all kinds of treatments but prices only available on request with whole lot of pressure to visit the tent spa... Beds very hard.

Miinukset: Kaksikerroksinen huoneisto (perhehuoneisto puutarhanäköalalla) sopi hyvin meidän perheellemme, jossa lapset ovat kouluikäisiä. Pienten lasten kanssa asuville huoneisto ei sovi, sillä yläkerran makuuhuoneeseen vievät portaat olivat todella jyrkät. Huoneistomme oli ylimmässä kerroksessa, ja sen äänieristys oli todella hyvä. Patjat olivat kovia, mutta niihin tottui. Sängyissä oli lakanat ja viltit. Ostimme erikseen all inclusiven kuudelle päivälle. Kahtena päivänä teimme ruoan itse ja kävimme muualla syömässä. Ravintolan valikoima vaikutti aluksi todella suppealta, mutta loppujen lopuksi sekä lounaan että päivällisen valikoima riitti meille oikein hyvin ja oli tarpeeksi vaihtelevaa. Osa henkilökunnasta oli todella ystävällistä, osa taas ei.

Plussat: I was very impressed with the staff who were very friendly and helpful. The food was amazing, great breakfast buffet as was the dinner. Lots of choice and excellent food. I couldn't fault any aspect of our stay.

Miinukset: The fact that we only spent seven days there.

Plussat: Great hotel! Would stay there again. Just like the pictures. Beach is right across the street and its great to have the pool for red flag days at the beach. Don't know what we would have done without the pool and the kids on those days. The breakfast is out of this world!! Just as good as 5 star hotels in Athens. They also have a fresh crepe stand and offer freshly made loukoumades. View from breakfast area is also great! Bar opened until very late if you want to grab something on your way back from being out all day. Food in general is good; had the lunch buffet one day and offered a lot of choices. Staff is also very friendly and go out of their way to help you. Good laundry service and taxi always available. Many choices for kids; including mini arcade. We also stayed on a higher floor and had a great view.

Miinukset: Liked everything!

Plussat: The hotel was amazing! The rooms were very large, the staff was very friendly and amazingly helpful. I had a great conversation with the night desk manager. He was very professional and courtious. I will absolutly be staying here again and would recommend this hotel for anyone staying in the area.

Plussat: Beds were really good

Plussat: Huone (perhehuone) suomalaiselle perustasoa. Ei 5 tähteä, ehkä 4. Parasta siisteys. Huone siivottiin ja puhtaat pyyhkeet vaihdettiin joka päivä. Tiskit tiskattiin. Huonesiivoojat olivat iloisia ja erittäin ystävällisiä. Paksumpi petari tuotiin pyynnöstä. Huoneessa oli hiljaista. Viikolla 43 oli mukavasti tilaa altailla (vaikka britit varasivatkin petit etukäteen). Aurinko paistoi joka päivä. Aamiainen oli hyvä. Ravintolan henkilökunta palvelualtista ja ammattitaitoista. Vastaanotossa ystävällinen, asiallinen palvelu. Kaikki osasivat englantia hyvin. Useimmat myös muutamia sanoja suomea. Sijainti oli hyvä. Bussi meni vierestä, mutta välillä oli ihan täynnä ja ajoi ohi. Hotelli sijaitsi lähellä Haniaa. Taksi Haniaan vain 13 e. Lentokentälle 40 e.

Miinukset: Illallinen olisi joinakin iltoina voinut olla parempi. Yleensä kuitenkin maukas ja monipuolinen. Hyviä viinejä hintatasoa 25 e/pullo. Rannalle mennessä varottava vilkasta liikennettä.

Plussat: Suomalainen Maria oli asiakaspalvelun rautainen ammttilainen. Jotkut muut esittivät sellaista. Hieno iso uima-allas ja hyvä aamiainen.

Miinukset: Muuten siistissä huoneessa oli likainen sohva. Sängyssä ei petauspatjaa.

Plussat: Very relaxing; spa and gym were a great bonus; access to both a lovely pool and the sea; excellent buffet breakfast; very friendly and helpful staff; easy access by bus into the delightful Chania.

Plussat: Where do I start! The room excellent, the food was totally delicious & great value, the pool and even our private pool was beyond expectation, the staff all around were friendly & went above and beyond to ensure ours needs were covered, from the their morning greetings to the last goodnight. Also, the pool bar people were fantastic, highly recommend a drop or few Raiki with them. Thank you & hope to see you again

Plussat: Meillä oli puolihoito ja ruoka oli erinomaista, löytyi paljon vaihtoehtoja myös keliaakikoille. Huone oli siisti ja sänky hyvä. Allasalue oli kaunis ja lokakuussa matkustaessamme tungosta ei ollut. Hanian kaupunkiin oli kätevä matkustaa bussilla, bussipysäkki oli aivan hotellin edessä. Henkilökunta hotellissa oli ystävällinen ja palvelualtis. Merenranta oli aivan lähellä kadunylityksen päässä.

Miinukset: Olisimme kuunnelleet mielellämme musiikkia illalla, sitä ei oltu järjestetty hotellin puolesta. Huone näytti kuvissa suuremmalta, kylpyhuone oli todella pieni. Merinäköala ei ollut aivan sitä mitä odotimme, meri kyllä pilkotti taustalla, mutta katselimme pääosin toisen rakennuksen seinää.

Plussat: Executive suite was very comfortable and spotlessly clean.

Miinukset: It rained during our stay and the covers on the sunbeds were left out and couldn’t be used as they were wet! Minor point but you’d think they would have been moved under cover when it rained.

Plussat: Excellent location with a seaview. Very good breakfast.

Plussat: Aamupala oli erittäin hyvä.Huone siisti ja kauniisti sisustettu.Näköala sekä puutarhaan että uima-altaalle päin. Hotellin tilat olivat viihtyisät.Ulkoilma baarissa saattoi syödä edullisen ja maukkaan luonaan merinäköalaa ihastellen.Ruoka oli kaikissa pisteissä maukasta.Vastaanottovirkailijoilta sai erinomaista apua.Iltaohjelmaa oli parina iltana.Yöllä oli tosi rauhallista.Lähistöllä oli monia tasokkaita ravintoloita sekä muutama pienempi supermarket.Bussipysäkki aivan lähellä rantatien varressa.Esim.Haniaan oli hyvät yhteydet.Tasokkain hotelli missä olen ollut Kreikassa.

Miinukset: Sää olisi voinut olla lämpimämpi.Huhti-toukokuun vaihde saattaa olla vielä hyvinkin viileä. .Hotellin upeaa uima-allasta olisi halunnut käyttää enemmän,mutta vesi oli vielä aika kylmää.Ranta-aluetta oltiin vasta siistimässä ja tien alta kulkeva tunneli rannalle ,oli veden peittämä.Rannalla ei ollut vielä mitään johtuen ajankohdasta.

Plussat: Great value for money

Miinukset: Great for families

Plussat: The staff was incredibly friendly and the breakfast buffet was just perfect :) Everything about the hotel- location, rooms, garden, restaurant and pool area, services - was very well planned and managed. Thoughtful, professional and extremely friendly staff - beyond our expectations.

Plussat: Sijainti oli loistava ja sopivan matkan päässä Haniasta. Varaukseemme sisältyi aamupala sekä illallinen ja ruoka oli hyvää. Huoneet olivat siistejä, joista allas-/merinäköalamahdollisuus, myös parveke oli kiva. Huoneet siivottiin päivittäin ja pyyhkeet vaihdettiin uusiin. Elafonisi ranta ja Rethymno kaupunki mukavan päiväreissu ajomatkan päässä. Hotellin Ranta oli ok, mutta kävelimme välillä hieman rantaa eteenpäin Agia Marinan rannalle, mikä oli kivempi. Henkilökunta oli mukavaa ja hotelli oli sopiva rauhalliseen makuun.

Miinukset: Juniorsviitti oli hieman pienehkö ja lisävuode ”sofabed” oli kapea ja kova. Huoneeseen ei ollut mahdollista saada kolmatta normaalisänkyä tai isompaa sohvaa (olisi pitänyt ottaa kokonaan isompi huone). Hotelli oli kuitenkin täynnä, eikä tämä ollut mahdollista. Meille kuitenkin ko. sohva oli Ok, mutta hintaan nähden vähän harmitti. Kylppäri oli myös hieman ahdas ja suihkun lattialta vesi valui viemäriin hitaasti. Aamuisin aurinkotuolit täyttyivät nopeaan tahtiin.

Plussat: Hotel is in quiet place. Very nice owner, very clean. I highly recommended for everyone.

Miinukset: Wonderful swimming pool

Plussat: The view was wonderful. There was a clean pool. And the owner was really friendly with us. Really nice hotel

Miinukset: The hotel could be a 3 start hotel if there were some requirements, like breakfast, mini soaps and other little things. Also there was a missing shade of the window's bathrooom so we had to put a bag to conver the opening.

Plussat: Hyvä sijainti, ysävällinen henkilökunta, siisti, hyvä allas

Plussat: pieni rauhallinen hotelli meidän makuumme hyvällä paikalla

Miinukset: Isännän englanninkielen taidon puuttuminen(jonka ystävällisyys korvasi)

Plussat: The location is great having a walkable to beach and so many shops and restaurant's nearby. The apartments were more spacious than I imagined and the swimming pool excellent in the hotter days. The old man doesn't speak English but is very welcoming. The cleaner is very friendly. The bus service is every 20 minutes to Chania. Excellent value.

Miinukset: Bus sometimes overcrowded.

Plussat: Great position. Nice big apartment. No charge for safe or air con.

Miinukset: Only minor niggles. Could have done with a kettle in the room. The pool would be better with a surrounding wall/fence.

Plussat: Very hospitable and helpful landlord/receptionist, amazing swimming pool, great location! Very clean too. We would definitely come once more there.

Miinukset: The stay here was comfortable, the only thing I would suggest is to provide shower curtains in the bathroom for more comfort.

Plussat: Omistaja-herrasmies oli ihana, ystävällinen, vanhempi kreikkalainen mies joka tosin ei puhunut yhtään englantia mutta kommunikointi onnistui tarpeeksi hyvin silti. Hotelli oli pieni ja jotenkin turvallinen ja mukava vaikka emme jutelleet oikeastaan kenenkään kanssa. Sijainti oli oikeastaan loistava, ei suoraan kadun varrella mutta ihan kivenheiton päässä rannalta ja ravintoloista ja kaupasta (siis n 100 metriä).

Miinukset: Ensimmäisenä yönä käytävällä yllättänyt torakka oli ehkä pieni downeri mutta sen shokin jälkeen ihastuimme paikkaan. Okei, sängyt narisivat, tyynyt olivat vähän mitä sattuu ja ilmastointilaite oli sijoitettu yhteen makuuhuoneeseen eikä viilentänyt läheskään koko asuntoa... Silti luotettava paikka joka oli sitä mitä varmaan Lupasikin.

Plussat: Aircon in each room. Clean. Comfy

Miinukset: Had to be quite all the time

Plussat: the apartment room we rented was very spacious with one master bedroom, one living room area, a basic bathroom and spacious balcony. It had a brand new fridge/freezer as well as loads of kitchen utensils which helped us cook whenever we fancied. The room was cleaned every day it was spotless clean and bedsheets and towels were changed every single day. The pool was spot on, great size for the whole family to enjoy and always clean and hygienic for us and our little one. The hotel is 5 minutes walk from the sandy beach, which was crystal clear, shallow and warm enough to swim in, and with lots of restaurants, take aways, mini markets and playcenters for little ones to play nearby. Mr. Vagelis was always happy to help and there to answer to our needs. It is thanks to this hotel that we had the BEST Holiday so far as a new family. Thank you Galaxy Hotel and many thanks to Mr Vagelis and his daughter! Next year we'll stay there for longer!

Miinukset: honestly, i and my wife and little one liked absolutely everything!

Plussat: Rauhallisuus, siisteys, tosi kiva henkilökunta, sijainti mainio

Plussat: nothing !

Miinukset: It was horrible

Plussat: Nice place, helpful hosts and wonderful olive oil <3

Plussat: Ystävällinen ja huomioiva perhe!

Miinukset: Liikenne kadulla yllättävän kovaa!

Plussat: Very clean, fully equipped apartment, nice and spacious with everything you should need. They also provided us a bottle of water, oil, raki, jam, tea and nuts as entrance gifts. Staff is very kind and friendly. Cleaning and new towels are provided every other day. Free public parking easily available along the street.

Miinukset: The shower maybe a little bit tiny but we managed anyway

Plussat: Everything fine. It is not luxurius but neither is the cost. They really try to make your stay comfortable in every respect! It was clean and had all necessary amenities.

Miinukset: I chose it primarily because my dog's name is also Melina. Than I noticed that they do not accept pets :-) But this is understandable, not everyone has to accept them and I was not travelling with my dog anyway.

Plussat: Nice and spacious lovely comfy beds sheets changed every two days. Very well equipped kitchen and a nice balcony with a veiw of the sea.Nice and quiet at night but only a ten minutes walk to beach and restaurants.

Miinukset: Shower cubicle was a little small

Plussat: The room was very comfortable and clean. Spacious washroom. Beautiful view.

Plussat: We greatly appreciated the hospitality, kindness and helpfulness of the owners, Antonius and Melina. Very comfortable bed and space. Very clean, new towels and bedlinen every other day. We very much enjoyed our holiday in beautiful Chania.

Plussat: Nice host, opportunity for parking, clean apartment, lunch on the balcony with (some) seaview, welcome raki. Good starting point for car excursions, the beach is in walking distance.

Miinukset: N/A

Plussat: The place is very quiet and good location, near beach. The guest are very kind and always close to help us. I strongly recommend those who want a modest and easily accessible location.

Miinukset: The bathroom and the kitchen would be refurbished. The showers are very old and small and it is very difficult to take a bath.

Plussat: George was very helpful and willing To assist with any of our questions etc... It was a quiet place which we were looking for away from busy street but also only ten minutes walk to shops etc. Overall was great location and ease of checking in and out simple.. will be going back.

Plussat: Everything was good.

Plussat: Comfortable, very clean, spacious, beautiful outdoor space!

Miinukset: Staircase was difficult to use, so at least our room not recommended for people with moving difficulties. Bathroom facilities could use a repair (liking and hard to turn off)!

Plussat: Location, helpful owner and quite location

Miinukset: Spiral stairs were a bit of a problem

Plussat: Everithing! Spectacular views from the room and from the roof, exceptional room conditions, great pool, great guests, friendly kittens, parking place available etc. We will be back for sure.

Miinukset: The shower was to small but they told us that they will start renovating the baths next month.

Plussat: Very nice establishment, beautiful garden and a very nice and kind gentleman with his adorable dog cleaning and taking care of the flowers all the time, peaceful place, very very close to the center of Stalos, very well equipped rooms and nicely made.

Miinukset: I don’t know about the rest of the rooms but ours had a very intense and annoying smell of mould and moisture that did not go away all 3 days that we stayed. A complete cleaning of the bathroom would be appreciated as it was cleaned only partially everyday.

Plussat: I loved staying at Kurmulis. It is a delightful and quiet appartment complex, small, very clean and very pretty and quiet and in an ideal location to explore all of Crete. Hari, the owner, is charming, knowledgeable and very helpful.

Plussat: The owner Hari Kurmulis It's very cool man and you can ask him about everything....The place is in a strategic position to visit Chania (7 km) and to go in Balos and Falasarna...There's a good restaurant close the studio. Rooms are clean and very large.

Plussat: I appreciated the nice and helpful staff; the pool was nice. It is a quite place not too far from the beaches.

Miinukset: The bathroom was not so nice.

Plussat: I liked swimming pool and It is near the center.

Miinukset: The kitchen furniture weren't clean enough

Plussat: We chose this place because of the low price. We did not use the pool but it looked clean and nice. There is nothing wrong with the place but it is not great either. I would consider using it again because of the low price.

Miinukset: On the map it looks like the place is right next to the beach, but it is not. It is at least a 5 minutes walk away and a bit difficult to find.

Plussat: The owner is lovely and added to our experience. He was very accomodating and welcoming. He went to a lot of effort and gave us great advice on where to go for food and beaches! We will definiately return!

Miinukset:

Plussat: The owner (Mr Kurmulis) is a very nice person always ready to help and provide informations about the most amazing places of the island.

Miinukset:

Plussat: nice welcome

Miinukset: no view, bathroom was not 100% clean

Plussat: The owner and the people there are wonderful. A good place for relax and/or make friends. Moreover, the best way to learn and enjoy the Cretan way of life!

Miinukset:

Plussat: Everything! The structure, the place and above all the kindness of the owner and his raki.

Miinukset:

Plussat: These studios and apartments are located just off the main road and literally across the road from the beach. We stayed in a basic studio, which was very clean, spacious and had plenty of wardrobe space. The beds were typically Greek and very hard! Kitchen facilities included a mini oven, kettle and microwave. The balcony was a decent size too. The little bistro at the front served good food at a very reasonable price. There were lots of tavernas and several supermarkets within a few minutes’ walk. The owner and staff were lovely and very helpful, arranging a late check out and a taxi transfer for us.

Miinukset: The pool was lovely, but could do with a few more sun beds in high season. No bar or toilets by the pool.

Plussat: Rauhallinen sijainti, lapsiystävällinen. Ranta lähellä. Kaikki tarvittava kävelymatkan päässä. Henkilökunta ystävällistä, sopivan kokoinen allasalue. Siistiä.

Plussat: Sijainti ja ystävällinen henkilökunta.

Miinukset: Wifiyhteys todella heikko!!!

Plussat: Everything was so perfect the owners and staff couldn’t do enough for us x

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Great location 2 minutes or less from the beach and 1 kilometer from more than you can eat at , my favorite was friendly restaurant great pita Gyro for less than 3 euros

Miinukset: We were on the ground floor and people walking by could look in . So we had to keep the curtains closed most of the time

Plussat: Keittiössä oli kaikki mitä tarvitsi, raastinrautakin löytyi. Kahvin-/ja vedenkeitin, leipägrilli, uuni, liesi, jääkaappi, pakastin. Kattilat ja paistinpannut hyvät. Uima-allas alue oli ihana, altaassa sai uida mihin vuorokauden aikaan tahansa. Rauhallinen hotelli aivan päätien varressa. Hyvät yhteydet esim. Haniaan, Plataniakseen jne. Meri 150m päässä. Huoneisto iso 45 neliötä, kolme parveketta. Henkilökunta auttavaista, kaikki toimi.

Miinukset: Wi-fi oli heikko. Patjat oli kovat, mutta siihenkin sain avun, kun laitoin muutaman viltin päällekkäin petaus-patjaksi. Kato Stalos paikkana pieni, mutta eipä oikein 30 asteen helteessä tarvinnut kuin uima-altaan ja meren. Mies oli oikein tyytyväinen, kun kauppoja ei ollut paljon lähettyvillä.

Plussat: ilmalämpöpumppu piti huoneiston ihanan viileänä öisin. Uima-altaalla sai uida myös iltamyöhään. Erittäin ystävällinen henkilökunta.

Miinukset: sänky olisi voinut olla vähän pehmeämpi ja se natisi.

Plussat: Siisti,rauhallinen,pieni hotelli ja hyvä sijainti. Uima-allas sopivan kokoinen.

Miinukset: Makuuhuoneeseen olisin kaivannut lukuvaloa yöpöydälle.

Plussat: Kerrankin huoneisto jossa kaikki oli kunnossa! Isäntäväki oli todella auttavaisia ja ystävällisiä! Todella vastinetta rahoillesi!

Plussat: Close to the beach and bus stop!

Plussat: Easy access to this nice small complex as it was an overnight stay having just arrived late at night at Chania airport. Lovely apartment with nice onsite taverna selling Charma (local) beer with friendly staff. Spacious room - just the start we needed for our Cretan adventure.

Miinukset: Our 10 minute warning of eviction from the cleaning lady the next day! LOL - good job we were going anyway.

Plussat: Huoneisto oli todella tilava. Hotellin sijainti oli erinomainen: lähellä kauppoja, rantaa ja uima-allasta. Allas-alue oli hyvin hoidettu. Ystävällinen palvelu.

Miinukset: Hotellille oli hiukan vaikea päästä autolla, mutta parkkipaikka löytyi kyllä.

Plussat: Directly on beach. Only drawback of this is that in nights some stupid guys roared with their motorcycles. And therefore we must close door to the balcony (we were accommodated on left side). And use air-conditioning. But no problem. Rooms are after reconstruction and very neat. Wc/washroom are perfect. Rooms were thoroughly cleaned every day, bedsheets changed quite often. Sunbeds on beach are only few meter (or little-bit more feets) away. They are convenient. Beach relatively clean. Sandy beach is perfect for kids with usual drawback :muddy water if higher waves. We often used pool with sunbeds and bar of hotel Koukouras where Lia belongs to. Bartender Michael is fine, you can have also a meal there. Sometime homemade by his mother. Free wifi is reliable. Perfect communication with Mrs Evangelia. Clear, no hassle, everything was exactly as agreed. Totally satisfied.

Plussat: I booked last minute at the Koukouras. The pool was fantastic, and although it was only early season, the pool bar opened the day after I arrived. My twin room was big, bathroom had a fixed hairdryer which was great (and by the mirror!), beds comfortable, lots of lighting options. The maids did an excellent job, were very polite and more than helpful, as was the owner. The price was excellent. The hotel is situated just far enough back to not get the full impact of passing traffic and was quiet and I loved listening to birds and see them swooping in the pool in the evening. Nice roof terrace to take a drink onto. There was a football table there too. Location is great, the bus stop to the beautiful city of Chania, west to Kissamos, south to Paleochora etc on your doorstep. Lots of shops, mini-markets, gifts etc 50m from the hotel. Oh, I forgot to mention the beach!!

Miinukset: Better wi-fi connection. The signal was weak/non-existent in my room 108. This is nothing to complain about really, just a point to mention.

Plussat: Aamiainen oli hyvä ja hotellin sijainti sopivan matkan päässä rannasta.

Plussat: Uima-allas oli huippu, aamupala hyvä ja henkilökunta ystävällistä.

Miinukset: Huoneen näköala ja olisi voinut olla veden keitin ja kahvin keitin. Niin ja hotellin supermarket olisi voinut olla pidempään auki.

Plussat: Amazing breakfast!

Plussat: Staff are very good and helpfull. Rooms were cleaned every day, towels changed every day also. Pool and pool area are very clean and tidy

Miinukset: Brekfast could be a bitt better. Wc could be little bitt renovert.

Plussat: Professionalism and kindness of all the staff

Plussat: Ystävällinen henkilökunta,erinomainen sijainti,siisti huone. Lyhyt matka hiekarannalle.

Plussat: Very friendly staff, they brought us food every day. Good position, nice balcony, very quiet. Blankets and toilets clean.

Miinukset: The cupboard were they kept the pans and the cutlery really stinked of mould!

Plussat: The owner of the property Rula is a fabulous lady. Even though the rental was self catering she still brought me and my husband little snacks of traditional Greek food. The air-conditioning and safety deposit box were included in the price and there was a hairdryer in the room. We found the room very clean (done daily) with change of towels and bed linen. It's a family run business and they are all fabulous. True Greek hospitality at its best.

Miinukset: There really wasn't anything that we didn't like.

Plussat: This is a place where the Madame with very big heart ♥️ welcomed me within arrival to hotel. Also I had the possibility to meet her husband and later also their adult daughter when she spent her holiday at Crete. Very nice, friendly and good people. Also lady as personnel very friendly and warm person. Due to all this the atmosphere in the hotel is very nice. It is very clean everything and it can be noticed that they take care of everybody and also about the house itself. Cozy pool with nice environment. Safe and quiet place with good location. I 'll received some surprises as cookies and some tasty sandwiches from the Madame. Very pleasant indeed. Also during departure day I' ll received so excellent, nice and to be honest unexpected good service. Very excellent, perfect place to stay. Very happy for staying there one week. Very happy and definitely , when visiting Crete next time I do not have to think twice where I wish to stay. Highly recommended.

Plussat: The location is very good. You can find everything within walking distance. Bus stop nearby. The staff was very friendly and the whole place was very clean.

Miinukset: The pool is very small and of little use. The wifi quality was not good in my room (although I think it was a temporary problem).

Plussat: We didn´t have breakfast in our reservation. The location of the hotel was not far from the beach and was well shielded from cars and noise. The owner took great care of us and almost every day she came to the door and gave us something homemade. Felt very welcomed. Lots of charm over this place.

Miinukset: The language skills were not the best due to poor english on the owner and staff but somehow it all turned out ok.

Plussat: This was close to where a wedding we were attending was being held. Good value for money for Chania. Everything you need for a short stay. Swimming pool was great for an early morning dip. Coast and beach facilities very close. The very friendly owner gave us cake when she need not have done - typical Cretan generosity!

Miinukset: Car parking was not easy but we managed ok.

Plussat: This small hotel is on a side street in Kato stalos and located within easy reach of shops,bus stops and restaurants. The owner,Rula is a gem and is so kind and generous. Would highly recommend it for value,location and security.

Miinukset: Nothing.

Plussat: Owners were absolutely lovely! The lady even brought us homemade cake!

Miinukset: Swimming pool needed cleaned but that may be because it was near end of season. Rooms etc could do with updating.

Plussat: Erittäin mukavat omistajat ja hyvä palvelu. Hyvä sijainti lähellä rantaa. Pieni ja viihtyisä. Ihana puutarha kukkineen.

Plussat: Excelent hospitality by the staff, cleanliness and value for money

Plussat: Cleaniness, location and wireness free internet access

Miinukset: The hotel should focus on dealing with customers' problems...not just superficial courtesy which is not good enough.

Plussat: The hotel is near chania and platania

Miinukset: There is no parking, the sheets have holes. There were no shutters so in the morning the room was too worm and too shinny

Plussat: Courtesy of the staff was very good, the position is good for Katos Stalos beach and for a visit to Chania. We used this hotel as a base to reach also Elafonisi and Falassarna beach. Ok a free internet access by a computer in the reception.

Miinukset: They don't accept payments by credit card.

Plussat: Access to nearby locations.

Miinukset: Nothing was perfect, but nothing was really bad either.

Plussat: The Service was perfect. Never had such service.

Miinukset: Me and my friends were in Crete to party. Tthis isn't the best located hotel. But if your interested in taking it easy, then this is the perfect choise

Plussat:

Miinukset: The only problem was that the hotel was difficult to find, the sign was hard to see while driving.

Plussat: Location great. Right on the beach and free sunbeds.Lovely clean pool.Our room was adjacent to the road but no noise from traffic. Very quiet resort if you want somewhere lively this is not for you. Lots of supermarkets bars and tavernas within walking distance. Taxi to Chania harbour 12 Euros or take the bus.

Plussat: Ihana hotelli! Siisti kuin mikä. Sängyt super mukavat. Henkilökunta huolehtivaista ja ystävällistä. Aamutakit ja -tossut pientä lisäluksusta. Uima-altaan baarista sai juomia ja pientä syötävää edullisesti. Rauhalliselta allasalueelta jaksaa tuijotella merelle tuntikaupalla.

Plussat: Kaikesta, etenkin huoneistosta, uskomattomasta suolavesiuima-altaasta, joustavuudesta, ystävällisyydestä ja huolenpidosta

Plussat: One of the best hotel to stay in Chania, with exclusive beach and wonderful swimming pool. It is close both to Chania main city and Agia Marina.

Miinukset: Almost nothing just mattress can be improved to be a bit harder.

Plussat: Great place for people who want to be close to the action but not in the midle of it. A wonderfully run clean family hotel with the nicest staff. An island of peace and fun on the beach with a nice small pool as a bonus.

Miinukset: Liked it all

Plussat: Great sea views. Staff very friendly and helpful.

Plussat: Just few steps from the very nice beach.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Very nice staff, especially owner Nikos and bartender Georgia! Thank you very much for the great time!!!

Plussat: Lovely staff, so friendly and helpful. Beautifully clean throughout. Gorgeous views.

Plussat: Modern will all the amenities, own beach front and nice pool

Miinukset: If Chania is your main destination is a 30 min ride with the public bus; however the buses run frequently like 3 an hour till midnight. No hotel parking but finding a parking on the street is fairly easy.

Plussat: Nice hotel, great location, very helpful staff!!!

Plussat: The hotel is in a very good place nearby the sea which is good for the kids too. the pool was good for the kids and quite clean.

Miinukset: Our room was a little bit old although it seems that has been renovated. a second air condition in the bedroom would be welcome

Plussat: The hotel owners were extremely friendly and helpful. They made sure that we enjoyed our holidays in every way. The location is superb, just a swiming pool dividing our room and the sandy beach! Plenty of amenities nearby.

Plussat: Clean, high standard, pool area and almost on the beach.

Miinukset: A lot of noise from main road in front of hotel

Plussat: The location is very nice. pool next to the beach !

Miinukset: All the air coolers in the rooms are not working good enough. the hotel needs new a/c in the rooms. no option for miorning caffe in hotel and no breakfast.

Plussat: Location was great and children liked both pool and beach. Apartment was roomy and nice with a great view. There were a lot of good restaurants nearby and other facilities.

Miinukset: After booking we got a notice that payment with credit card is okay but in check out heard that credit card isn't acceptable and we weren't prepared with enough cash. Paying by Paypal or with bank transfer worked so it wasn't a big deal but took some extra time.

Plussat: Fantastic location “directly on” the beach and even a very nice pool - great staff! Everything simply perfect - highly recommendable

Plussat: great staff and great location. The website states the beach is an 18 minute walk from the hotel. This was an error, the hotel is right on the beach.

Miinukset: Our room was not ready upon our arrival. We were given another room in which we were able to change and shower until our room was ready. They were very apologetic!!

Plussat: Staff were friendly, gave my fiancée a lovely birthday surprise basket with fruit & Prosecco, very clean and good sea view.

Miinukset: There was an issue with the price that has been left unresolved by the hotel. There two prices on booking.com one for a double bed and one for two singles, I paid over 100 more to have a double bed but all of the rooms only have two singles which they pushed together. They put foam line in-between but the beds are not made up as double and not worth £100 more. The hotel still haven compensated me which is very disappointing. It would have been a perfect stay otherwise and we would have stayed again.

Plussat: The apartment has a good location right on the beach with a pool over looking the beach. The rooms are good size and all of them have a sea view and a balcony.

Miinukset: The hotel has almost next to no customer services. There is never anyone at the reception for any queries. There is however a lady who seems to be the owner but isn't very helpful and just tells you to speak to the receptionist when he's available. She checked us in but had no idea of our room requests that we made at the time of booking. We asked for one of the room to be changed but she just asked us to come later when the receptionist is around. The toilets also need a lot of updating. Due to the shower area not being covered every time you shower the entire toilet gets wet. The breakfast is also pathetic for 6 euro and there's never anyone at the bar after 2 pm You get what you pay for in this place.

Plussat: Loistava sijainti aivan rannassa ja kylän rauhallisemmassa päässä Staloksessa. Siisti huone ja siivous toimii joka päivä. Koskee vain uutta puolta. Vanha puoli on kulunut ja askeettinen. Pieni siisti uima-allas sisäpihalla.

Miinukset: En saanut käyttööni varaamaani 4hh huonetta vaan puolet pienemmän tuplabookkauksen vuoksi. Viikkoa ennen saapumista varmistin sähköpostilla että kaikki on kunnossa mutta eipä sitten paikan päällä ollutkaan. Lisäksi respa yritti saada 2hh huoneesta samaa hintaa kuin alunperin varatusta 4hh huoneistosta. Pitikän ja äänekkään neuvottelun jälkeen päästiin tyydyttävään kompromissiin mutta ei oikein vakuuta tämän hotellin toiminta. En menisi uudestaan ainakaan booking.comin kautta varattuna.

Plussat: Loistava sijainti, bussilla pääsi helposti Haniaan ja kaikille mahdollisille retkille. Meren läheisyys ja ihana hiekkapohjainen ranta olivat mahtavat. Altaalla oli hyvä uida ja aina löytyi vapaita paikkoja.

Miinukset: Huoneen vessa/kylpyhuone oli pikkuruinen ja suihkussa käydessä koko vessa lainehti.

Plussat: lovely apartments located right on the beach. our vacation became perfect thanks to the staff and owners. highly recommended, for single travelers, pairs and families. we will return next year if possible:)

Plussat: Nice and clean family hotel. Friendly and helpful staff. By the beach, with sea views. Nice and quiet location. Next to the bus stop to town. Many shops and restaurants nearby.

Miinukset: Adding breakfast to the rate could be good. No WiFi connection.

Plussat: Great location on the beach, sun beds free of charge, many tavernas nearby, the owner (Katerina) was very helpful and friendly.

Miinukset: It was noisy in the room because of the road traffic behind the hotel. Kitchen equipment was not very good (only one power socket and one cooking plate), small bathroom

Plussat: This is a truely wonderful place with the best location right on the beach. Its a perfect place for a family vacation. The beach is also child-friendly with nice beach-restaurants nearby (Aminas). The owners are also very friendly and helpful. Right outside the hotel, you find shops and restaurants and a bus stop which takes you directly to Chania city. For about 20 years, the apartment hotel has been affiliated with a travel company - but this year,everyone has the oppotunity to enjoy this perfect place. If you are going to this area, you should definitely try it.

Plussat: Everything - it's perfect. But if I have to pick one thing, the attention to detail in the cleaning and the preparation of the room is better than I've seen before for such a place.... But then the view, the breeze, the sound of the sea, family vibe,... Yeah, it's perfect.

Miinukset: Nothing - it's perfect.

Plussat: Everthing was perfect.It's a very lovely,cozy,spacious hotel. Only a few steps on the beach, and has a beutiful view. Also, incredibly kind.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Everything was perfect. Maria and Anastasia were great hosts and they helped me with everything I needed. Rooms were clean and spacious, not mentioning beautiful view from balcony. I have only positive words for this property. I will definitely come back and stay with Kristall Suits when I come back to Crete.

Plussat: Great location, pleasant staff, nice beach with free sunbeds and umbrella, I suggest sea side appartments, economy is street side

Plussat: The hostess (Anastasia) is super kind and welcoming. She even played with our 3 year old daughter :) This is the true beach front location with private sunbeds and umbrellas.

Plussat: Simply wonderful! We just came back today and can’t wait to write something for the place. The people in the hotel are just so nice to us, especially my little one-year-old. Many guests are return guests over the years and sits often in courtyards together with the nice hotel family. It’s like you are part of the family, not guests. The owner loved our daughter and bought her a nice little plush dog in a pink purse! She has been carrying it everywhere. Obviously these have all added so much value to our stay. Regarding the hospitality side, the hotel is spotless clean! Tough an aparthotel, the room was cleaned on daily basis: our used dishes cleaned, all sand on the ground cleaned, even the towels folded into different nice shapes everyday, swans etc! My daughter got once a dog made of towel in bed. Made our day! Location wise, it’s the main reason we booked the hotel and it topped our expectation! Truly beach side hotel with its own beach benches, shower, etc. we also had a beach view room, just fantastic to sleep with the wave sound and see the ocean when waking up! The hotel is 30-mins driving from Chania airport and with many good restaurants and small markets nearby. We walked to most of the good restaurants from the beach side, bare foot. Stalos is not as touristic and developed as the adjacent Platanias, but still very decent facility. With a car, Plananias is 7 mins away and Chania harbor is about 20 mins. We stayed one week and enjoyed our time so much! It is the first proper family vacation for our small family since my daughter was born, and it was just such a good start. No stress, everything relax! I highly recommend the place and will certainly return if we are going to Crete again in the future. Big thank you to the hotel family!!!!

Miinukset: Not much at all, if anything the WiFi is slightly slow in our room and on the beach for video downloading, but good in the courtyard. Maybe this is only for our room since it’s far to the beach side. All restaurants’ internet are not very fast, so it’s likely a region thing. Than again, off the phone on vacation is probably better~

Plussat: Beautiful location with great views to the sea, Close to shops, bus stop other beaches and city Chania who has a great view harbour full of tavernas and restaurants

Miinukset: The place was a bit damp ,probably was late season end October or to close to the sea.

Plussat: Very nice calm location with great views from the apartment a little away from the fuzz in the beach-area. The host Platon is a great host - and has a natural interest in giving good service and advices, and everything is extremely clean and well maintained. The swimmingpool area is great. The hotel is located in a small town with a cafe and 2 good restaurants - both are good and authentic in each their special way. Since the hotel is about 1800 meter from the main-street and beach area you may prefer to have some kind of transportation.

Miinukset: Nothing to remark.

Plussat: Everything else! Quiet village location but close to Chania and the coast. Lovely pool and wonderful breakfast served on shady flower filled terrace.The highlight was the wonderful host, Platon who was a mine of information with recommendations for restaurants, places to visit, best driving routes and places to park our hire car.

Miinukset: Bedroom up two flights of steps from bathroom

Plussat: Breakfast was simple but plentiful in a calm, leafy setting. The host played carefully chosen, classical music while we ate our breakfast. There was always delicious yogurt and honey, and fresh fruit, plus fresh orange juice to accompany the toast, cheese and ham. Conversation with the owner Platon was always interesting and illuminating. Such a lovely man - so considerate, charming and worldly wise. Two excellent village tavernas - tremendous value for money.

Miinukset: I have no real criticisms because the hotel, the swimming pool and the village location were delightful. Moreover, the host/owner Platon was simply charming, helpful, courteous, warm and very intelligent company. My only reservation is that Hotel Orestis, in upper Stalos, is about 2.5 kilometres from the sea, although there is a reasonably regular bus service.

Plussat: Orestis Hotel is wonderful! Very clean and with attention to detail, this is the perfect place for relaxation. The owner is very polite and made us feel like home. Situated on the quiet village of Ano Stalos and still very close to Chania. Definitely reccomend it and coming back.

Miinukset: We should have stayed longer!! :)

Plussat: We loved this place! Quite, beautiful, very clean. And a very friendly host!

Plussat: Spent a wonderful week from 12/09 to 19/09 in Crete staying at Orestis Hotel/Apts in Stalus. Our host, Platon was so welcoming and couldn't do enough for us during our stay. He is one of life's gentlemen, a delight to talk with and so patient in guiding us to the best attractions on the island. The accommodation and pool area are absolutely spotless and the Cretan breakfast a real treat, all thanks to Platon's very capable Girl Friday. Airport transfers and car hire can be arranged efficiently and at good prices with Platon's partner suppliers. Orestis is located in a quite village away from the hustle and bustle of the main tourist areas but within a short taxi ride or drive of same.

Miinukset: There is really nothing "not to like" but you will need to hire a car for some of your stay if you plan to explore this region of Crete.

Plussat: Lovely clean apartments with pool & beside the beach. The beach cafe had very nice cocktails and food. Bus stop from Chania right outside.

Plussat: A Lovely comfortable stay, a beautiful pool and overlooking the beach. Close to a bus stop into Chania which was great as this time of the year when everything is closing up locally for winter. A Perfect 5 night stay, we would definitely return again.

Plussat: Great food, location and very friendly staff.

Miinukset: Kylpyhuone ja etenkin suihkukaappi oli todella pieni.

Plussat: Kotoinen tunnelma, henkilökunta hyvin tuttavallista. Aivan loistava sijainti, allaskahvila kirjaimellisesti rannalla.

Miinukset: Pieni leikkialue lapsille olisi kätevä!

Plussat: We had really nice week here. The location is good. Both pool and beach. Good food and the milkshakes was super. Next time in Crete I can stay here again. //Fredrik, Sweden

Plussat: It is amazing. Clean, everything is close: de bar, the restaurant, which has a really tasteful l food, the supermarkets, the pool, the sea, bus station. We had a room with an amazing view. Ia is also a very good place for families with children. We will turn back for.sure.

Plussat: good buffet food and the location to have breakfast cannot be bettered , Everything about our holiday experience was excellent . we had great sea views and the beach was less than a 60 second walk away . Bar area and food 10/10 staff were so helpful and pleasant . would definitely go again for a relaxing beach break

Plussat: Breakfast was great. Help yourself buffet. Right on the beach with lovely views across the beach. Staff were very friendly and it made our stay very special. Nice pool, lots of beds especially on the beach and free to use!! Quiet area of Stalos which was what we wanted. A lovely family running a lovely aparthotel made even more special by the taverna staff who could not have been more attentive. No mosquitoes, bugs a very clean place to enjoy a quiet holiday.

Miinukset: Nothing for what we expected. The only thing I would suggest is to put Moussaka on the menu and some Greek music and I believe the taverna would be full every night.

Plussat: Apartment cleaned and towels changed most days. Excellent breakfast and beach/pool bar restaurant. Property on the beach which was lovely.

Plussat: Everything

Miinukset: Esperides hotel apartments is really good.. we had awesome stay there.. staff were friendly.. owner was helpful. Breakfast was good, view is fantastic, I would recommend it 100% for families. I would definitely go again, 5 star from me

Plussat: location,cleaning every day,fresh bedlines and towels every day

Miinukset: bathrooms need to be refreshed

Plussat: I love nearly every aspect of my time here, the beach really is just on the front of this property, the garden is great and catches the sun nicely, the bedrooms are cleaned everyday and are super smart and modern the beds are very cosy also, my view was amazing and the place was super quiet, the lady who lives downstairs who was the owners mother was a really lovely lady, I wished I could chat to her as I'm sure she would have told me many stories, but she didn't speak English, the area is fine plenty of pubs and places to eat if that's what u like, the bus service is fantastic runs constantly every 10 mins and goes to the city or all the way down the entire coast which is exactly what a family or single person would like, the buses are super cheap and everyone seems to speak english, as from Crete, Crete is stunning.. Such a loving vibe..

Miinukset: Ok so here's what I found hard, its nothing major I'm sure but for me its a deal breaker, there wasn't a cooker only a one hobbed little camping stove, I like to cook on my holidays it keeps the cost down and in general I like my own cooking better than tavaners, there wasn't a toaster either, its the simple things I missed on my stay.. And that's all everything else here is great.. This is just my own preference pls dont let it put u off this place is great and I will revisit..

Plussat: Great apartments and stunning view from the sizable pool. Not brand new, but very clean and a perfect spot from which you can discover Chania and its surroundings. We decided to stay a day longer since we loved it so much. Maria is an extremely kind host

Plussat: The owners were very accommodating and very willing to ensure your stay was very pleasant. We hope we have now made good friends for the future

Miinukset: the facilities in the kitchen could have been slightly better as we generally feed ourselves over breakfast and lunch. but being old travellers we make do and mend every situation that we are given and just get on with our holiday

Plussat: Really nice staff. Fantastic location and sea view. Next yerar again

Plussat: View, pool.

Miinukset: Late breakfast

Plussat: View, swimming pool, sunset from the balcony

Miinukset: If you dont rent a car difficult to get there

Plussat: The pool, the view, the balcony, the sunsets, the staff.

Miinukset: Nothing we didn't like. Would have liked a few more cooking utensils, maybe another pan.

Plussat: Maisema merelle ja uima-altaalle upea. Rauhallinen ja kaunis ympäristö. Todella vieraanvarainen ja avulias emäntä.

Miinukset: Ilmastointi maksullinen.

Plussat: Spacious clean room well serviced. Great views. Excellent garden and pool area. Maria is lovely and is a ray of sunshine. I felt very comfortable and at home. I didn't hire a car and once I had walked to the main road (down the hill) buses ran every 15 or 20 minutes right into the night all along the coast road. If you are less able, taxis are also readily available to the door. There are also lovely walks away from the main road, but again quite hilly.

Miinukset: I was a little disappointed that the bar/dining room was not open during the evening. As a single traveller this offers a chance to meet the other guests. This did not spoil my stay.

Plussat: Place is very nice. Has nice view and swimming pool. Close to restaurants and to the see - 10 min max. The owner Maria is very nice, She organized Samaria trip which was excellent! Strongly recommend.
