Could have been special
Must be really exciting during the spring/summer, but no so in December. It is not the easiest to find either. When we arrived thought that it was completely closed. After 10 minutes of head scratching it became apparent that the doors have no handles but must be opened by digging your nails into the soft part and pulling to the side. This was no glitch as it was the case all over the property. In addition, dinner is very odd in that there's a bunch of staff or just random people hanging out while a loud movie is playing in the background with no one watching. This is a shame since the hotel itself looks beautiful.

A nice mountain hotel on the island of Crete
I chose this hotel not only because of the favorable price compared to the beach properties in August, but because of its location too - it's similarly near (or far) to Chania (where my airport was) and Heraklion, which is the main city on the island. Not to mention Rethymo, which is probably the most charming town in Crete. The room size and condition is very good, the whole hotel looks nice and charming. Their breakfast is quite good, the wifi... I didn't even think about it, that's how good it was. The mountain air is great, nights are cool and the sleep quality is just great - and it's so quiet in this little village in the middle of the mountain. Oh, and it's very, very clean! The only minus for me was the reception working hours (7-21), but that didn't limit my freedom, even though I was leaving very early - they told me to just drop the keys at the reception. It would only be a problem if you arrive very late - but this just wasn't my case.

i booked a suite and i was given an apt cause they had no availability on suites. They gave me an apt At first it looked ok but not when i opened the bsthroom door. it stunk. The bathroom smelled like a sewer . i complained about the smell. They came over and cleand the shower drain up . The next morning i couldnt step into the batroom from the smell. i had to leave the room and the hotel. i have to mention that they offered to give me lunch and late check out for giving the apt instead of the suite. Which none of them were used

This property location was not described properly. It should state that driving to the location can be dangerous and challenging. Also, that one is likely to lose internet connection. The room i chose was not what I received.

Great services which make this 3-star hotel compete directly with 5-star hotels. Unbelievable value for money. Cleanliness, good taste, ambiance, attentiveness, attention to detail... Everything was great and we thank you for that. We will definitely be coming back.

Modern accommodation, good value, average service.
Hotel facilities and suites are great, however their website and literature needs updating. Cleaning is not everyday, it is every 3. Check in is not 12, it's 2pm however we were made to feel this was our mistake. Attitude was bordering on rude/dis interested. Also the hotel pool is open to the whole village and is therefore always busy, more a civic facility than a hotel one.

Le bâtiment central était fermé, donc on a été surclassé dans une suite. Celle-ci était spacieuse, moderne avec de petites attentions, fruit, bouteilles d'eau, dosettes pour café... Par contre dommage que la partie centrale de l hôtel était fermée, du coup pas de bar ou de transat.

Thanks Alexander & crew
Remotely situated place in a small vilage that really surprised us. Its a big place with interesting interior and wonderful outdoor terasse and pool However it seemed like the hotel pool was a playground for all kids in the area and as much as i appreciate that it made it close to impossible to use the pool in the daytime. Sitting on the terasse was a noisy experience, but as long as the kids very happy it was ok. Breakfast and other things destined fir your stomach were reasonably priced and there were a few nice restaurants in the village
