Beautiful hotel. Only issue was lack of extra blanket in the room. Couldn’t get the air conditioning or heat controls to work. Was told in the morning that we could have called any time to get help. It was late in the evening so we didn’t bother. Did not have the breakfast. Very convenient location and free parking. Would highly recommend.

This is an absolute gem of a boutique hotel. Katarina and her so, Kinstantinos, are the very gracious owners of this gorgeous property in the heart of Rethymno. All the ancient and amazing sites are within walking distance, as well as wonderful dining and shopping options. The only downside is the parking situation, challenging in Rethymno, to say the least. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely go back.

Slightly aged building and amenities, still great, friendly stuff, clean, everything worked well. Amazing Terrace on the 5th floor with a great view to the harbor, especially in the morning for sunset. They offer turndown service. The room on the first floor was a bit noisy during the Saturday night traffic. Can recommend also in Winter, great value for price.

Wonderful hotel and location
Wonderful stay, great and friendly staff. Convenient location if you are coming in or leaving from the port and it has a nice roof deck. Bed was very comfortable and they made us feel extra welcome for our honeymoon. We only wish that we stayed for more than one night.
