"Decent hotel for the money. Pictures are deceiving. Pool has limited chairs. Did not eat at the hotel at all because there was always a faint smell of vomit. Room was old and needs updating. The housekeeper opened the door to the deck daily which made the room extremely hot upon entering and you are unable to leave on the air conditioning when you leave the room. The smallest shower I’ve ever seen with no wash rags available."

"Had a wonderful stay here. The property is charming with a lot of character and a perfect central location. The “superior” room was spacious and bright and the staff were incredibly friendly. The cleaning staff especially were so kind and sweet. The shower did switch temperatures from hot to warm back and forth which was odd but that was the only thing we noticed. Overall fantastic and highly recommend!!"

Top Marine Life Museum Hotel Reviews

Civitas Suites Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean and a really lovely room. Bed was comfy. Would return!"

Avli Lounge Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent choice! Stay was superb and went out of their way consistently to make sure we were well served in every way. Property is eclectic, intimate, and stylish through out and superbly located in the best area of Old Town with easy access via foot to everything. Discounted Paid parking is convenient to property only 2 blocks and easy for luggage transport. Breakfast is outstanding every morning, although not available before 8:30a which is a bit late if you have plans to explore Crete beyond Rethymno. Walk to main town beach area is about 20 minutes. Missed having a ceiling fan in our Junior Suite room. Much prefer authenticity and quaintness of entire Rethymno and Avli experience over larger and much more crowded Chania."

Casa dei Delfini

10/10 Excellent

"Stunning boutique hotel that is the envy of every person walking past. The owner and her son were lovely hosts. Loved our loft style room overlooking the old pedestrian street in old town. Our room was located in the Venetian wooden extended windows above the hotel entrance. Just fantastic. Breakfast is continental but they do make you eggs to order. Loved the location as it is right in old town but not on a laneway with bars. Parking is difficult in Rethymno old town as cars aren't allowed in, so you need to find street or lot parking offsite and wheel your luggage in. No biggie. We parked about a 8 min walk away."

Casa di Gaga Luxury Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing stay!"

Gateway Suites

"Amazing hotel for the price. Good location near a lot of restaurants, shops and the harbour. Good breakfast and friendly staff. Small pool to enjoy with staff ensuring that people don’t leave towels first thing then disappear for hours. 👍 Would definitely recommend and stay again."
