Lækkert hotel, manglende pool til teenagere.

Lækkert hotel og fantastisk beliggenhed. Dog mangler de en pool fra unge mellem 6-18 år, da de unge ikke må benytte den lækre pool. Den pool de kan benytte er en pool, hvor de små børn på ca 4 -6 år bader og der er skrig og skrål. Det varmet kæmpe minus for vores 3 teenager børn.

Top Hotel, jederzeit wieder

Das Hotel liegt ca 40 min zu Fuß von der Stadt entfernt, aber direkt über die Straße ist der sehr gepflegte Sandstrand. Das Hotel besticht durch eine sehr schöne Ausstattung, Pools und extrem freundliches Personal. Ebenfalls ist das Frühstück außergewöhnlich und lässt keine Wünsche offen. Das Zimmer war über 2 Stockwerke mit kleinem Gästebad und einfachen Betten unten. Oben wunderschönes Bad und komfortables Doppelbett. Zimmer war bei Erstbezug nicht ganz perfekt geputzt( haare unter Decke, große Kaffeflecken rund um Mikrowelle..), aber die Zimmerreinigung während des Aufenthaltes top.

Fin ferietur

Fantastisk fint hotell med flott beliggenhet. Elsket at stranden var rett utfor døren. Eneste minuset var trafikkert vei veldig nærme. Topp betjening. Deilig frukost

6/10 Good

Foto del sito non completamente realistiche (sia per la location sia per le stanze). Il personale di sala era molto cordiale e gentile. Colazione ottima. Purtroppo l’albergo è separato dalla spiaggia da una via trafficata. Le piscine sono piccole e non valide per nuotarci. La nostra camera (per 4 persone), aveva doccia con tenda doccia da cui fuoriusciva l’acqua direttamente sul pavimento, che quindi era sempre bagnato con anche tappetini tutti bagnati. Luci al neon in ambedue le camere da letto. Nessuna luce per leggere nella seconda camera con letto a castello. Parcheggio quasi impossibile per strada e l’albergo non ha un parcheggio. Note positive: personale di sala gentilissimo. Spiaggia con ombrelloni e teli a disposizione, con servizio drinks e pasti portati direttamente all’ombrellone da personale attento e veloce.

Trevlig och hjälpsam personal. Tipsade om fina ställen att åka till. Bra frukost! Lugn och skön atmosfär. Ett plus att solstolar ingår även på stranden. Det enda negativa var att det var en bit till Gamla stan.

Amazing hotel, fantastic Staff!

A very good choice for a holiday in Rethymno. I visited this hotel for business and it was very conveniently located very close to the center but in a quite area with other hotels and amenities next to it. The beach is right across the street from the hotel. Towels and sun beds are free of charge. Rooms are very spacious and clean. Hotel staff is very friendly, helpful and welcoming. The manager at the breakfast buffet is amazing! Overall a great hotel and highly recommended.

The Spa between a wall, road and mini mart

The hotel gives the impression it is a spa enviroment in a lovely beach setting. Fact it is crammed between another big hotel and a mini mart on a very busy 2 lane road with the beach on the other side. We knew about the road, but its description did not include being the main road with huge and non stop tour buses. The road is also lined with mini marts and budget resturants and bars and hotels. The staff at Plaza "spa" is pleasant and helpful and one of its best assets. The 1 bedroom apartment we booked based on the wed photos, was sparce with no sofa only beds to sit on. Nothing like the photos. We stayed in that room because it overlooked the ocean and the road, better than being in the back with nothing to look at but the many beach towels and underwear hanging over the balconies. This could have been Naples. The room was quiet only with the balcony door closed. So much for ocean breezes. I booked with hotel because the Grecotel has a rep for luxury properties. This one is NOT. After we returned I discovered it was also a timeshare. Very disappointing. I should have done more research, but I took the Hotel.com and Grecotel websites at face value. I did not "buy" the additional cost breakfast option for this hotel and the comformation clearly stated Breakfast not included. Turns out is was free with the room, but we didn't know it until we tried to pay for coffee at the last of our stay. Fortunately, this hotel was the only booking mistake I made in a 4 week trip.

no es un 5 estrellas

No esperes un hotel de 5 estrellas. La suite que nos dieron era grande, aunque el colchón del sofa-cama estaba en pésimo estado. La limpieza deja un poco que desear y había olor a humedad en la habitación. El desayuno es muy pobre, no merece la pena en absoluto. Está enfrente de la playa, aunque ojo, es una playa de piedras. La vista desde el hotel es bonita con el mar de frente.El paseo al centro de Rethimo es muy agradable y está lleno de sitios turísticos pero ricos para comer. Tiene 2 piscinas pequeñas.
