I stayed in a sea-view room for just one night, but I would have stayed longer. Very cozy, attentive staff. The room was clean and air-conditioned. The bed was very comfortable. Delicious breakfast. And a wonderful beach with sun beds and shower right by the sea. There is also a great bar with good drinks.

The northern part of Crete is very windy, and swimming in the sea can be quite a challenge due to the high waves. However, this is not related to the hotel, as they have created great conditions for relaxation.

The view. All rooms have sea view. You can hear the sound of the waves, but also the traffic noise. However, the balcony door did an excellent job soundproofing the noise. The wifi worked very well. For guests outside EU who have to mitigate roaming costs, this could be a major plus. Fresh orange juice at breakfast from real oranges. :) The staff were very friendly and the cleaning service was excellent.

Not really stuff that we did not like, but things that could be improved and other that needs to be taken into consideration when making reservations. The breakfast could use some variety. However, we found it very good. Some may not... it is not a buffet type. Parking could be difficult especially if you rent a big car. We found free parking places withing a few minutes walking around the hotel every night, but not easily and it was mid October. During peak season I expect this to be a bit harder. Again, I cannot say these two things I did not like. I was very happy with the breakfast and I did find free parking 6/6 nights around the hotel.

We had a fantastic stay at Poseidon Hotel in Rethymno, Crete! This small-scale family hotel is a true gem, located right on the boulevard and the beautiful beach of Rethymno. The hotel has a lovely terrace where we enjoyed a good breakfast every morning. The rooms have been recently renovated and offer all the comfort you need, with a great bathroom and a balcony with a breathtaking view of the sea. What made our stay extra special was the hospitality of owner Alex and his wonderful team. They are all incredibly friendly and helpful, and nothing is too much trouble for them. Despite the hotel's location on the boulevard, we experienced no noise disturbance as long as the sliding door was closed. This ensured a peaceful and relaxing night's sleep. The hotel's private beach, Prasines Poseidon beach, was another highlight. The beach staff was extremely helpful, even when it came to setting up a second parasol. The service on the beach was quick and efficient, allowing us to fully enjoy our days by the sea. In short, Poseidon Hotel is an absolute recommendation for anyone looking to enjoy a relaxing holiday in Crete. Alex and his team have everything perfectly arranged.

It was perfect.

Everything! Alex and his team are amazing. The breakfast is great, you get so much and it includes fresh orange juice! The rooms are a good size and cleaned every day. The best thing is the location: just across the road from the beach and only a short walk into the old town for all the bars and restaurants in the evening. The loungers on the beach a free as long as you buy your drinks there which is a massive bonus! We stayed 2 weeks and had the best time, all topped off by being able to see the sunset from our sea view balcony every night!

We chose to stay a few nights in this hotel because it was directly by the beach. Nevertheless, you can reach the city centre in 15 min on foot. There is a restaurant/bar on the ground floor, but we barely heard anything in our room, even if we were on the 1st floor. There is where we had breakfast every day with a good mix of everything and the possibility to order extra eggs or Greek yogurt. The staff was very nice and helpful with our requests.

You barely hear anything from the bar below, but the street in front gets busy throughout the day. If people smoke at the bar, you can smell it on the stairs and directly by the room entrance. Moreover, if the air conditioning is on inside the room, you cannot sit on the balcony, as the hot air is directly thrown at you.

The hotel is located on the seafront, and the view from the balcony is amazing. The conditions in the hotel are very good, daily cleaning, and Alex a special person, who tried to fulfill all our wishes, from parking reservation to directions for visiting the island. The breakfast was very good, like the rest of the meals served in the restaurant. Thank you for everything Alex and Ioana, we will gladly return to this hotel!

It's a really nice small hotel, exactly at the beach and close to the old town, but has a lot of restaurant and shops near by too. It's about 15-20 minute walk from the central bus station. The room was great, has everything needed, and the view is amazing. The staff was always really helpful, they even moved the scooters so we could park our rented car in front of the building. I could leave the keys at the reception too, so I don't had to take back the car in the morning. We even received some gift coctails at the restaurant. I asked one time to open a bottle of wine, and I got wine glass and some snacks too. They have a beach bar too, with free wifi and shower, and great food. I would totally recommend it.

Nothing at all.

The staff was lovely, even if we arrived later than expected they were waiting for us. They have amazing customer service. The beach is just right in front of the hotel, easy access. Breakfast was simple and tasty. The room was excellent, it had everything we needed for our stay, it was cleaned every day. The view was wonderful, it was lively but not noisy. Thank your for the lovely stay.

Nothing to mention.

This is truly a wonderful hotel by the sea. All hotel rooms have a sea view. The hotel has its own small restaurant where a delicious breakfast is served. There is no breakfast buffet, but you can choose for example omelette, fried and boiled eggs, bacon, yogurt, fruit. Everything is prepared fresh. Every morning, a plate with bread, butter, various jams, cheese, ham is also served for breakfast. They also make coffee for you, whatever you want. We had a very tasty latte. And freshly squeezed orange juice is served every morning. The hotel staff is very friendly, always ready to help. The beach hotel has sunbeds that you can use for free if you order something from their restaurant. I can really wholeheartedly recommend this hotel.
