What's nearby

  • Above the beach at Matala, on the south coast of Crete, are a number of caves carved into the cliffside. During the Roman rule of Crete, the caves housed tombs. In the 1960s, the by-then empty caves hosted hippies who used them to camp out in. Matala still has a slight counter-culture feel to it.

Directly opposite stairs that lead down to the main street with various tavernas,restaurants,cafes and kafenions. Pool was just what we needed,the down side the sun beds are old and need replacing. Where the sunbeds are sited is neglected and looks temporary. Needs to be tidied up and tiled.

Agia Galini again and again

Great value for money. Cleaners came every day to replace sheets and towels. Breakfast included in the price and offered plenty of choices. Pool was fantastic and clean. Friendly staff. Good location. Parking spaces on-site. Only downside was a lack of WiFi in the room, however, good WiFi in reception area and at the pool. Also, extra charges applied for air con (€5/day) and fridge (€2/day). We would definitely return here.

No where near where we wanted to be ,

I had looked up rooms in Matala , this is no where near Matala , 40 minute drive away , no Wi-Fi in the rooms only down in the lobby , no elevator so we had to carry our bags up 4 flights of stairs ... most disappointing hotel of our entire stay .

A very good compromise on location and price

The Petra Hotel is about 150-200 yards out of the center of town, up the hill on the busy road out of town. But that's not really a problem; it's easy to walk down into the town. Our room was spacious, pleasant, and newly renovated. Strangely, however, the hotel charges for air conditioning (5 Euros/night), the use of the refrigerator (2 Euros/night), and the use of the safe (1 Euro/night). I have never in all my travels been asked to pay for air conditioning or to use an in-room refrigerator. The hotel is amateurish in general; I recommend they professionalize and just raise their rates by 5 Euros in the summer. There was a mediocre continental breakfast. They did not serve "English breakfast" as advertised.

Hotel Petra

The hotel was to the usual Grreek standards. The air conditioning system dripped water in the room, when I reported this they said they would fix it, of course this was not done during my 3 day stay. The staff were friendly.

This hotel was so so...

The air conditioning was off and the windows were closed when we arrived so the room was super hot and it took a lot of time to bring the temperature to an acceptable level. There is no elevator and our room was at the third or fourth floor! The parking is limited but it's not surprising. It's really a 2-star hotel...
