2 star hotels in Platanias

There were neither shampoo nor soap in their containers in the bathroom. The kettle in the kitchen had a layer of calcium that I needed to clean before using it. Other than these, everything was fine. It was very clean property. Swimming pool was also very clean. There is a limited parking space on the street and no where else to park since I’m the road ends at the property. We had to park by blocking...

Stayed for one week, overall is OK experience if you don’t expect a lot. Nice relaxing garden with nice big swimming pool and pleasant to rest around in the sun-beds. The apartments are pretty basic but will do fine if you’re alone or as couple, with children i don’t recommend, unless they have better options for families. Basic furniture, AC only in bedroom and is noisy, kitchen utensils ok, I would...

We stayed in a one-bedroom apartment for three nights and this place is just fabulous. The apartments are very spacious and quiet, on nice grounds with a pool in the middle. They also have a nice bar and light meals available with delicious chocolate shakes too. The family who runs the business are super friendly and very helpful. We highly recommend. If there is any downside to note and only a small...

Just returned from a 7 night stay at the Elea apartments. Suited us down to the ground, lovely and clean, spacious apartment with plenty of amenities. The location is perfect being only a 5 minute walk from both the nearest beach and supermarkets. The pool area is lovely as you are surrounded by banana palms and shade is provided by olive trees. Will definitely stay here again on our return.

Stayed in Elea in October, this was my second visit and cannot recommend the apartments enough. They have everything you need, are 5 minutes walk from 2 supermarkets and really close to several beautiful beaches. We will hopefully be back in the not too distant future.

Loved my stay at Elea. A peaceful place to stay that is a short walk from the beach. Great for families with young children.

10/10 location, so many restaurants and supermarkets near the hotel The food at the beach bar was amazing and very good price!! Very nice staff, clean room, comfortable bed. This was my second time staying there with my boyfriend and we were very satisfied and would love to come back!

Lived in the superior room with terrace. The staff, so so friendly! The pools, so nice, very clean, close to the beautiful ocean. Overall amazing! Would definitely come back, Love Greece in every way. The food, history, and people. My son loved everything about the hotel :)

Me and a group of 17 people (5 kids) stayed here for a week. The staff and the family that owns this hotel were so friendly and so kind! We felt so welcome and at home. The location is great, you have a walking distance to everything you need (beach, supermarkets, restaurants, shops) Big and nice rooms with great balconys, the room had everything you need and were always very clean! I have a 1-year...

we where here 14 days, with kids, super good hotel, good food, good pool, of course it is a place where families with kids go, so expect happy kids playing in the pool. it was VERY hot in the room, but AC is available at 7.5Euro extra cost pr day, we did that, and it was a life saver,

Nice and comfy staying. Housecleaning level was 100%.

VERY NICE PLACE, Very god service, and extremely nice personnel. Delicious and quite cheap food, to eat in the pool bar day and evening. Nice location, close to very nice beach, places to shop, a little amusement place and not further than a good stroll along the beach from Chania, or a direct trip in the bus. We have been there two years in a row, and are going back again next year. LOVE this place

Great stuff, pool bar. Some rooms with old furniture but newest are realy big and clean.

Good food with reasonable price and friendly service make this place easy to visit.

Very friendly staff, helpful and kids friendly. Pool with a kids section, perfect for our one year old

Close to beautiful beach. Calm place.

Just got here today, already loving it, very nice pool area, friendly staff, good food, nice room, good location and cozy atmosphere

Amazing location, nice walk distance to chania. Good food at the hotel.

Excellent place to stay! Location is great, near a very beautiful beach.

Staff was amazing. Beach across the street, another a short walk up the hill. 10 euro taxi ride to Chaina. 45 minutes to Kissamos, do a private charter to Balos. Food was very good. Friendly staff at breakfast and dinner. Very local feel.

The staff is very friendly and always helped me with my requests. The hotel is near a wonderful beach and a bus stop right in front going to Chania. The are so many options to take any activity or tour from this hotel, in good prices. Excellent room cleanliness, beautiful view from our room and very comfortable bed. The breakfast buffet was also really good.

Great stay at Forum Suites! Our family of 9 enjoyed our stay at Forum Suites this summer! The property is well maintained with a lot of privacy between all the rooms. The rooms are large with all amenities and very comfortable beds. Everyone who works there was great and you could see they take an active interest in ensuring their guests have everything they need and enjoy their stay. The only opportunity...

Very helpful staff, close to beach and town

Would’ve been nice to have a chance for a firmer and thinner pillow. The pillows in the closet were the same as the ones in bed.

The restaurants head waiter is very kind and polite. As we arrived midnight after 15h travel, we did not have any toilet paper until next day. Luckily we survived. Would have been nice to apologize immidiately and offer some extra as a kind gesture. The shower head’s upper holder was broken in our room but we weren’t bothered about it after not having toilet paper the first night. Hope they wont try...

Good location (which is what you're paying for) but the rooms are a bit dated.

Just returned from 14 nights in Despina Apartments, our third time, nothing is too much trouble for George, the apartments are spotless, attended to by Valentino, and the surrounding area, by George. Plenty of restaurants to choose from and shops all along the main road, and a short walk to the beach with sunbeds and shades. We are looking to go back again next year and highly recommend this complex

Couldnt fault the studio . Spotless, everything you needed .. Lovely balcony with sun in the morning then tea time . Host George was very friendly and left juice and biscuits on our arrival and some basil which was lovely as we made pasta a few times instead of going out . Good location.. . The only thing I found disappointing was there was no pool ! It was advertised with pool but this was a...

Lovely hotel! It’s such a nice hotel, George is really accomodating. The cleaning lady (i didn’t get her name sadly) is so sweet and good at her job. We stayed for free on the day we were leaving ‘till 6:30 in the evening. George arranged transfer to and from the airport so we didn’t have to worry. Would definitely stay here again!

The hotel is located in Platanias, nearby Agia Marina. This is a small, but cozy hotel with service-minded and nice staff. The management is allways solution-oriented. The hotel has air-condition and sunbeds. The hotel is located by the beach, so you are practically living next to the sea. Nearby there are a lot of nice restaurants and other shops. Nextdoor neighbour is a minigolf and playground for...

Service was good. Not 24/7 but when it was open it was on point. Verry helpful. Our room was nice and we had a greta view from or beach front room, Kitchen in room had all the things we needed. Bed was god. Had some ants on the flor and went to reception to tell them. I think problem was solved within 2 minutes. Wow. No food here but hey. You are on crete. Dont eat at hotells when there is worlds best...

The owner greeted us with a smile and great spirits. It is an excellent family run place. I highly recommend it to travellers and families. Thank you!!!!

Recommended! Clean, good service and perfect location! Very helpful staff. Sunbeds are right by the beach and included. Comfortable size of the rooms and cozy atmosphere. We highly recommend this place.

The property was perfect for us. A good base for a day on the beach or trips in the surrounding. Clean, tidy and comfortable.

Simple and inexpensive accommodations. Beach is right there! Clean and well-kept. Wifi was almost pointless- barely got any signal. Shower was tiny, water gets everywhere even with best efforts to keep curtain in place. We were only there to sleep so it was fine. If you wanted a place to hang out it had no character or charm.

Lotus was amazing, staff were so friendly (and funny) the rooms and entire hotel was clean and beautiful and had a lovely community feel to the space. The location is great too, on a really direct bus route into Chania itself, and we counted four (not three as advertised) beaches which were within a ten minute walk from the hotel. Resident cat was cute and friendly too :D Really loved our stay, thank...

Great apartments, spacious and very clean. Breakfast excellent choice and again everywhere very clean. Pool areas spotless and many sun beds available. The staff were all very professional polite and friendly. Breakfast room lady was excellent and worked really hard keeping the venue clean. Reception staff very helpful and friendly.

Our favourite hotel in Chania Agia Apostoli! Excellent service,hospitality and cleaning! We have stayed there ceveral times since 2007 with our children and as a couple and its the best.The best beaches near by and close to the busstop to Chania.Wonderful breakfast and this is just the perfect place for us!

One of the best Hotel appartements i ever experienced. We , too friends shared a flat with 2 bedrooms ( 1 bedroom upstairs ) Both with our own bathroom, kitchn/ leavingroom and balcony. Very Nice and clean. Breakfastbuffet. 2 pools and sunbeds. The Stuff was very friendly and helpful. Will for sure come back , and i really recommand it !

Our first time in Crete We chose the Lotus Hotel as it was small & Friendly, the reviews were good, location to beach’s was a factor, as well as good transport links, I have to say we weren’t disappointed at all. The Staff were very helpful & polite, from the front desk to the cleaner, Georgia in breakfast area always had a smile. The pool areas were relaxing, the bottom pool had loads of sun beds...

We have had a fantastic week at the hotel. The staff are absolutely wonderful and helpful. The hotel is clean and the rooms are fresh and newly renovated. Only 10 minutes to all the nice beaches with the clearest water. The breakfast is okay. Go here, you won't be disappointed!!

Nice place. The room is good,but we miss a microwave and we would have liked some thin quilt instead of just a cheet. The bathroom is ok. The cleaning is ok, maybe they should sweep around the pool now and then because some guests don't know how to pick up after them selves. And it is a bit responsive, but I don't know if they can do anything about it. The staff is nice but the beer is always out when...

An extremely friendly, family-driven hotel. Clean, spacious room, close to four amazing beaches, a quiet environment directly next to an extensive park area and a bus stop right in front of the hotel with direct connection to Chania. Suitable shopping possibilities nearby, and good, local restaurants/tavernas. If you need anything, let the owners know and they will do their utmost to make it possible...

Clean apartment, staff were very friendly. Nice pool and close proximity to the beach. Could do with a few more plug sockets near the kitchen area.

We were looking for a small friendly place to stay near the Agii Apostoli beaches and found exactly what we were looking for. The staff were new, but Aida, Kostas and Rodhula made us feel very welcome. In fact we felt so welcome, that we opted to have breakfast prepared every day. The U-shaped layout around the pool opens towards the North, so the verandas are nice and shady for all (N) or most (E...

Nice hotel close to rhe beachwith nice apartments. The shower unfortunantly has low waterpreasure.

We had a very nice stay at Kiwi apartments. Great location, very close to the beach and right across the buss stop to Chania. The rooms were comfortable and we have enjoyed the little patio right out of our bedroom. The cleaning service was great and we got fresh towels every other day. The staff was lovely and very helpful. Katerina gave us great suggestions about places that worth visiting on the...

Spent 10 excellent days in this Aparthotel with the family this summer! Clean rooms, very friendly owner and personnel, no extra charges beyond usual fee for air-conditioning and safe deposit box. There is a small pool, though we were not using it. The beach is just 1 minute away. Small grocery store is nearby - everything you ever need during vacation is in close proximity area.

Just returned from a lovely 10 night stay at lambrinos suites, having never been to that part of Crete was pleasantly surprised lovely clean apartments 2 mins to main strip and 5 mins to beach.Perfect location and lovely friendly owner, first pool I have been in in 9 years as they are often to cold but Lambrinos pool although small was really nice to get in to. Would definitely recommend I stayed in...

Very nice accommodation, cleaned daily, very quiet. All the staff very friendly especially the cleaner Maria and the gardener. Ideally situated only 5 minutes to the beach and 5 minutes to the many bars and restaurants. Great value, just to add the air conditioning is extra €8 per day but much needed at this time of year.

We absolutely loved it ! Lady Katerina is an exceptional host . Lovely location , clean and accommodating

First the good points. Great location for restaurants and tourist shops and bus’ also right next to the beach. We stayed here because of the location and ease of access to everything as we have friends nearby. We have stayed here before and knew it was pretty basic without a kettle, toaster, hairdryer or microwave. The beds were rock hard and uncomfortable and makes sleeping difficult The pool...

Pros: - The outside lawn, garden and pool looks beautiful. - Perfect location near different beaches, restaurants and mini markets. - 1 very friendly cleaner called " Maria", she could make anyone smile, gentile and careful. - Cons: - Rooms not astonishing as it looks, rusted beds. - Poor ventilation working on and off. - Only have access to 1 copy of key, so if you forget the keys you have to look...
