Nice hotel in good location,friendly staff and good food

They are all there to answer any questions you may have. The bar prices are really reasonable, €3. 06) for a glass of local wine! The breakfast and dinner were also good, plenty of variety

Special shout outs to Genti the barman, who was really funny; friendly and helpful, Elli and Yannis at reception, and the waiting staff at breakfast and dinner all lovely, friendly and helpful as I was travelling solo

The manager also lends a hand, whether at dinner or at reception late in the evening. All the staff are very polite and take good care of the hotel guests. I was even spoken to in German once or twice

The hotel is in a quiet location, just off the main road, so there's no noise at night time from bars etc. All the staff at the hotel were really friendly and helpful

One of the best all round hotels I’ve ever stayed in for relaxation. Staff were amazingly friendly and tentative. Requested late check out because of later flight and was duly approved. Food and drinks amazing value

The hotel was absolutely superb, we were there for a 3 night stay at the end of a weeks villa holiday and it was perfect. Rooms were massive, food was excellent, staff were so friendly and helpful

She provided us with excellent recommendations for local spots that were off the beaten path, just as we had requested. Her suggestions made our experience truly special

Absolutely incredible; best hotel ever. The people are amazing, location super relaxing, friendliest human beings ever.

Apart from this little niggle, the hotel was excellent and we would definitely return

The only thing that we could complain about was the pool area - the pool itself is stunning and overlooks the golf course BUT there are too few loungers and too few towels!!! So we arrived on one occasion to nowhere to sit and nothing to dry ourselves with - not ideal, one family with little children were all sat on one lounger! The pool area is not manned in any way so once the towels are gone they...

The room was clean and the service was excellent in all areas. We will come back again and definitely we recommend this hotel to people to enjoy this beautiful hotel in the heart of the city

View from upper floor of the old city is stunning. Located just 5min walk from the old port which offers many restaurants and tourists shops. Very nice breakfast with many options. Valet parking is a big plus.

She is amazing at everything she does. I really appreciate her welcoming attitude. I have never been more welcomed at any other location. Being an outsider I really appreciate being involved in her day to day

I highly recommend that if you are coming to Crete that you look her up. Another amazing worker is Katerina. She was great to interact with. Her upbeat attitude was amazing. I really appreciate all of the staff at Kydon

The only thing worthy of improvement is that the tissue paper is placed under the washbasin and cannot be found without looking carefully. It is recommended to simply place it on the table in the room

We were staying four nights at this hotel. The view from our big balcony was amazing. Near to everything in old town. People were all friendly and polite, full of professionalism

But it is possible and the bus tried to Heraklion for a shopping ride - excellent air conditioning, Wi Fi, 30 minutes and you're in town, bus station right in the centre near the port there and all the shops - who are interested in shopping - we liked it! Overall I was expecting from the hotel is the worst when picked

Perfect accomodation, very clean and spacious, also the furniture is very modern and new. The best is the private outdoor area with a private pool. There is a fence around this area, for a maximum of privacy

The food in the restaurant is very, very tasty and of a very high quality, if you like greek food. ) The staff is very, very friendly and helpful in every situation

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The staff in particular Mike and Babis were so welcoming and looked after us in the restaurant. The villas are well equipped and the private pools a really good size

We had a fantastic stay at Paradise Island Villas. On arrival we were greeted with a welcome drink and upgraded to a bigger villa. The villa was clean and well equipped

Nothing was too much bother for the staff. Genuinely happy staff that cared about their customers visiting. We look forward to returning to this hotel/resort

Perfect location! Best value for money! Excellent service!

Very good location, perfect breakfasts ,will be better if new bottles with water will be available every day

We even took 2 more pieces on purpose, but it turned out to be a bit sour when we ate it, an overnight watermelon in summer; in addition, we stayed for two days, and 2 drinking water bottles were provided on the first day, but not on the second day

Although the service staff helped to take the boxes downstairs, the hotel was on the second floor, and we had to move one floor by ourselves after leaving the hotel; the hotel had watermelon for breakfast on the first day, and we were very happy

This is the worst service of the four hotels we stayed in during our trip to Greece, and it is also the only one we gave a bad review

Because it is close to the port and attractions, I booked it for 2 days. Unfortunately, this is the worst hotel in my trip to Greece. There is a weird smell in the hotel

Very good place. Barman George is the best!!!

Hotel room with nice seaview, employees doing their very best, food OK also good choice of fruits every day.

The rooms are good, with nice airconditioning, a nice view and a spacious bathroom. The staff is very helpfull, exept the restaurant personnel. The food is mediocre at best. Quite far from the beach.

Water in the pools is filtered all the time and the guys playing the music know their businesses. Chillout after lunch and live music after dinner. Very kind and smiling you the guests

Staff is extremely helpful and willing to make your state a nice experience. Food varies and also Greek specialities are prepared. Amazing views from the rooms and swimming pool

Great hotel. Lovely pool with a sea view. Food is great and the staff are very nice. 10 mins walk to the beach. The water is beautiful and clear. Go for it

Great outdoor pool, clean and neat, friendly staff. Food is very good, with Maxim restaurant at the street level and has a very nice terrace

Cosy and relatively small, Castro is located on a five minute walk from Ammoudara Beach and has a bus stop in front of the hotel. The bus comes every 30 minutes so it take 20 minutes max to Heraklion city center

This Restaurant has been update since my last visit and food is very good and reasonably priced. Recommend the Calamari

We stayed for 10 nights and had a great time. Fantastic service with all the staff being friendly and helpful. Pool was really clean and nice. Very close to supermarkets, restaurants and specialty the beach

We appreciate very much that we had early check in because we arrived very early in the morning and were very tired. Breakfast was good and the food at the restaurant was excellent

We was last year 2024, all was ok special the food , the rooms was clean, but the furniture was outdated and the bathroom with the open shower wasn't very good. We only had breakfast, which is very ok

Very comfortable rooms and a great location. We loved the old town vibe and having a superb breakfast, sitting outside, seeing Chania waking up. You get great value for a good price, no doubt

The hotel maintains its Cretan charm and pride with modern and well-maintained amenities and excellent service from all the staff. I look forward to my return!

I thought El Greco was excellent value. Efficient service and very clean hotel

The staff was very welcoming and helpful The breakfast was quite tasty and fresh The price also I find quite cheap for 5 nights that we stayed Overall very nice hotel, with nice rooms and location Would recommend

A beautiful modern hotel located on the edge of the old town with a stunning roof top bar where you can watch the sun set. The room we stayed in was spacious with a comfy bed and a nice quiet air-con system

The room also had a fridge/safe Our shower was v powerful and toiletries are provided along with slippers and hairdryer. If I was to return to Chania I would definitely stay in this hotel again

Outstanding hotel with excellent staff, friendly, professional, warm and responsive. Loved sitting out on balcony overlooking park with chairs, footstools and table. Don’t miss the archeological museum!

The Olive Green Hotel is a clean, friendly and helpful place to stay, in a great location in the middle of the best parts of Heraklion

We had a wonderful stay at Olive Green Hotel! The staff were friendly, the atmosphere was relaxing, and the whole place was very well maintained

Excellent choice for Herakleion. Highly recommended.

The food at the restaurant is decently priced and tasted great, the staff were super helpful and can organise taxi's to the airport or port

The rooms are well priced and larger, which makes things easier for a longer stay

It has the best of both as it is in a quiet area but is only a 10min walk away from the main *****, where the nightlife is lively and there are a vast number of cafes, bars and restaurants

The staff at the hotel are amazing. Linzi was very helpful with advise of the area. Aris, the chef, obviously is very passionate about cooking. Everything was made fresh to order and the portion sizes were huge

Every morning George or Eleni knew what drinks we liked with our breakfast and after a day or two, our drinks were prepared for us without us asking. Yannis, the manager, was always friendly and helpful

For anyone that loves food you’re especially in for a treat (pun intended) the breakfast lunch and dinners are just incredible and great value for money as portion sizes are on the larger side! I cannot praise the service enough and will most definitely be coming back, missing everyone already!!

This hotel has fabulous views of the mountains on one side. There are two swimming pools with plenty of sunbeds. Each bed has a thick mattress so they are very comfortable

Our air conditioning was leaking on the balcony when we arrived and they came and fixed it as soon as we mentioned it. Always loungers by the pool, even after we'd been out somewhere else

I highly recommend coming here if you are looking for a hotel. The drinks were top-notch and easy to find restaurant. I honestly adore this place and will never forget it

Antisocial behaviour NOT tolerated at all! Food fresh and gorgeous. few mins walk one direction brought you to the funky strip

The atmosphere was so chilled and I had the best relaxing week! The old town which was 10 minutes walk away was absolutely beautiful, lots of restaurants to chose from away from the main *****

few mins the other way brought you to quieter area of fabulous restaurants more relaxed vibe

The hotel was lovely, with an excellent location next to the old town, where there were loads of lovely restaurants. Great swimming pool and friendly staff, particularly Maria

Really enjoyed our short stay here. The room was very clean & spacious. The (two) pools were both really nice and served by their own friendly pool snack bar. The staff were plentiful, cheerful and hard-working

Their kindness and genuine hospitality made us feel at home in the best way possible. Words honestly can’t describe how amazing they all were

I can't say enough good things about Vergina Beach Hotel. From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations

Our flight got delayed and thus we arrived later than expected and the hotel offered complimentary breakfast for our stay which helped get our vacation back on track! Near restaurants and shops and lots of parking! Loved every secod of our stay! Kudos to the Team, they are experts at customer service!

The beachfront location is simply unbeatable – you’re just steps from the sea, and they even provide beach towels, which made relaxing by the water effortless. What truly sets this place apart is the incredible staff

If you’re looking for a relaxing, beautiful stay in Crete with top-notch service, amazing food, and a dream beachfront setting, I highly recommend Vergina Beach Hotel. We’ll definitely be coming back!

The staff was extremely friendly. I can't give less than 5 stars. The apartment was clean and cozy, comfortable beds, great view and ambience. Easy access to restaurants, supermarkets and the beach

The staff cannot do too much for their guests. Stavros found me a walking stick to use on my trip to Knossos as my knees at the age of 73 can be a little weak. The food was very good but it’s the staff who are unbeatable

Wonderful location, 2 minutes to the beach. Excellent services and competent staffs. Food was delicious as well, and cats will stare at you when you eat. Highly recommend!

Lovely restaurant along the beach front think it was called Mythos the one with blue table cloths at the side of pizza oven. Trips land train ok to blue lagoon but not worth the money. Local buses excellent service

Good points Nice clean hotel ,friendly staff ,especially sasha the barman. As stated before on reviews no spirits until after 6. Lovely pool and sun loungers Negative points

Not in a really good area as nothing much along the seafront. Beach not fab stones and shingle with a tiny bit of sand. Jet2 needs to update description. Food not really good , poor choice and lukewarm

Desserts same every mealtime just different colours and often still partially frozen. Other guests said food was a lot better than the previous years. Not sure why you would repeat visit if food not good

The breakfast area is small but beautiful and the girl with long black hair and glasses who serves is excellent, always smiling and kind, excellent! The hotel is located in a very central location, you can go everywhere on foot

Good location for going to Heraklion Bus station. I Don't understand the structure of shower room with bed. Hard to understand what make here five stars. But reasonable price at off season

Very friendly staff and good location

It makes everything understandable and very kind and good, warm staffs too

There was a kettle and complimentary bottled water. The breakfast was excellent, served per person, and I couldn't finish it all. The coffee was the best I've had at breakfast in years

The location couldn’t be better: just a short walk to the Heraklion Museum and local buses to Knossos, with a taxi station right across the street and the central bus station within walking distance, making it ideal for exploring the area

Excellent staff but the air-conditioning was totally unpleasant. Especially with such a hot weather a good air-conditioning is always a must. fully disappointed by that factor

I was able to book a room for one night very quickly , the staff was super friendly and willing to help with everything we needed. Considering the price , it was very good for its value

This is by far the best hotel I've stayed in Greece. Very beautiful design of the room, clean, and with a bathtub. Friendly hotel receptionist. I will definitely stay here again if I visit rethymnon.

I would definitely consider staying there again on my next visit to Rethymno

Large common areas were perfect for working. You have to walk to the sea, the historic center, or the bus station, but it's all within walking distance. There's a great supermarket across the street

There was a kettle, hot water, comfortable beds, and excellent value for money. A photo from the bed was on the TV. There's a school across the street, and kids play and make noise during the day

Two small/medium sized pools, with plenty of sun beds (for the size of the hotel) but pools are not heated, with how cold they are they may even put ice in them! The rooms are ok, more than good enough for me but some may say they could be a tad cleaner

The food was okay, would have liked a bigger selection of fruit and possibly more variety, but everything I did have tasted nice. Good selection of cocktails at the bar, along with spirits too

Not the grandest hotel I have stayed at but, for the price, it is more than good enough

Rooms 🏢 Spacious, clean, no complaints regarding the standard. Medium-sized bathroom – for bigger people it may be hard to manoeuvre, e

Fantastic location, nice and close to the beach and the main strip with all the bars and restaurants, also very close to the hills which are great for a nice hike! Loads of cats in and around the hotel, we loved it but some may not like that!

Only one elevator, with the restaurant on the 4th floor, which again was not a problem for myself and my girlfriend but for less able people, could be an issue

This is an excellent 3* hotel with a very relaxed atmosphere. The bedding towels changed everyday. The rooms are perfect ,clean and Greek. The food was very good and something for everyone

The location couldn't be any better, 1 min marina beach and excellent walks around the peninsula from Marina to the port and lake this way is a flat surface to walk it

The hotel staff are one big family and brilliant, the room staff really work hard to keep everyone happy, restaurant staff very attentive and quick tockear and clean, 24 hkur reception very experienced, I even experienced Greek dancing with the manager

Love to Maria, Shophie and Demetris

Nowhere to get changed in the hotel after you had checked out of the room. No umbrellas for the sun beds out by the pool. Our balcony overlooked a derelict building and not a city view as the booking suggested

Going down to the toilets in the bar area was dangerous as the last step was broken and covered with a towel/blanket. Also the floor was continuously covered with water

Excellent position, nice quaint family-run hotel, very helpful staff, across the road from the beach. A/C somehow not so cold and not so strong

Otherwise, the staff is friendly and the property is well looked after. Good spot to relax and catch some beach days

We adored this family-run property. Our room was very, very spacious. The property has beautiful gardens. The beach is just across the street whichbisbso convenient. We would definitely stay here again

Very kind service, affordable laundry, very spacious rooms, great view, everything worked perfectly.

Love this place especially considering you’re right on the beach. Restaurants are within walking distance

The hotel is extremely clean and the staff is very friendly. The beds are truly comfortable, and the air conditioning cools the room perfectly. The kitchen is functional and has everything you need

I stayed in this hotel for a week mid-August and it was one of the best vacations I’ve ever had! Obviously, the rooms have everything you need and are very clean and modern

Er is één mevrouw bij de receptie die zelfs Nederlands spreekt. Our room (nummer 217, 😊) is well sized with private balcony, airco and jacuzzi. It is all kept clean daily, including making the beds door twee lieve dames

But I strongly suggest booking a room with a pool view, where you can enjoy an evening or two on the balcony. We had different menus every day and the choice was just perfect, not too much and not too little

If you need anything special there is a small shop on the territory of the hotel or you can go into the town 10 mins, where there are plenty of restaurants and shops, including Lidl

People are usually staying near pool, so almost all sunbeds are taken (and yes, some guests are still having the habit of leaving a towel on a sunbed but showing up 3 hours later)

The pool is very clean and nice, the only downside is that it is still accepted that antisocial people reserve beds with their towels. Those towels should be thrown in the pool
