Lovely family hotel

Really nice hotel! Our suite had good beds, kids loved pools and mini discos. Half board was good.
Ville, 7-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great hotel, and great staff! The buffet was good with a good variety, and not the same repeat dishes everyday. The only downside is I wish the kids pool was near the adult pool, as it’s actually separated by the hotel itself from front vs back. Regardless, would stay here again!
Irene, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel layout is definitely different, almost labyrinth like. Loved that, almost needed a map to get from point A to B, really cool. And the staff could not be better and nicer!!!

Great hotel, shower room after check out was a nice option. A couple of the staff were terrific, yet one was quite rude. Overall really good though.

Im ganzen hat uns hier in Minos Hotel gut gefallen, dass essen war sehr lecker und abwechslungsreich, es gab nationale Gerichte sowie Meeresfrüchte, Salate, Dessert, Eis und Kuchen. Wirklich große Auswahl. Was die Zimmer Sauberkeit angeht, großes minus Punkt, auch nach der Zimmer Reinigung schmutziger Spiegel nicht gewischte Tische einfach mangelhaft. Für 3 Personen auch sehr kleines Zimmer, ein Pluspunkt war der herrlicher Meerblick. Jeden Tag Animation mit Life Musik Band, Bauchtanz Tänzerin sehr nett. 4 Sterne Hotel?? Eher nicht

Huone oli ok, ilmastoinnin kanssa hiukan säätöä mutta viikon kamppailun jälkeen homma alkoi toimimaan. Yksipuolinen aamupala, joka 10 pvä:n lomalla alkoi tökkimään. Neljän tähden hotelliksi allasalue ym. yleiset tilat nuhjuiset

Nice, quiet and clean comfortable stay. The breakfast was good. We got twin bed when requested for double, they added a nice thick topper. Very helpful staff. And added bonus as they gave us free olive oil gift as well as Easter gift hamper. Just a note to remember that you get water only on your arrival then you need to get your own.

It's an old hotel, but was recently expanded with a new building at the back. We were lucky to get one of those rooms, which was a pleasant surprise. Even though it's on a very busy road, those rooms were very quiet, as they are at the back of the hotel. No sea view from our room, but a nice beach with services is only a 3 minutes walk away. Breakfast was included and was nice. Due to COVID protocols, the cleaners would not clean the room every day, but at least we got fresh towels every day. They even provided us with pool/sea towels. They should try to use the sun to heat the pool. The water was not warm enough in October.

Excellent läge

Trevligt hotell med väldigt bra läge i Rethymno. Frukosten var riktigt bra med stor variation. Sängen var bra och rummet tyst. Stranden var ett par kvarter bort vilket gjorde att jag badade ofta. Kaféer och tavernor väldigt nära. Gamla stan nådde jag på 20 minuters promenad och där var det fina promenadstråk. Massor av restauranger och en handfull skoter-uthyrare längs strandpromenaden.
