Thomas
A hidden gem in the heart of Rethymno town. The recently renovated Venetian house exudes charm and history. I loved the small courtyards and the rooftop patio with stunning views. The owner, Nicos, went above and beyond to accommodate my dietary restrictions, providing different bread for breakfast. The location is unbeatable, with a plethora of restaurants, historical buildings, and a beautiful beach within walking distance. Despite some drawbacks mentioned by other guests, I found this hotel to be a delightful and memorable experience. I highly recommend staying at this unique hotel.

The Hotel exceeded all expectations with its ideal location, super comfortable beds, and jaw-dropping terrace for ultimate relaxation. The young and laid-back owner, Nicos, went above and beyond to please, even accommodating dietary needs. The breakfast was mind-blowing, offering a wide variety of delicious options. The hotel itself oozed with character, featuring beautiful wooden furniture and high ceilings. The cleanliness and attention to detail were superb, and the small courtyards added a charming touch. The friendly staff made our stay unforgettable, providing excellent recommendations for local attractions. Would highly recommend this gem for an unforgettable experience on the island of Crete.

We stayed at a hotel just inside the gate opposite the public garden. The Byzantine Hotel was easy to find with a visible sign. We were pleasantly surprised by the young guy who spoke some English and handed us a key without asking for our names or passports. The room was comfortable and clean, with a nice AC and reliable Wi-Fi. The old building had been renovated to our liking. The breakfast, although not a buffet, was delicious and served at 8:30. We enjoyed the outdoor patio where we had breakfast, and the location was perfect, being close to the old town. The free parking area recommended by the helpful staff was a bonus.

The historic building had a unique charm and the staff were friendly and helpful during our stay. The breakfast spread was also satisfying with a variety of options to choose from.
We had a less than pleasant experience with some aspects of our stay. The room we were given was small and cramped, while the air conditioning was loud and hardly effective.

This hotel is situated right at the edge of the old city and conveniently near a historic Mosque. The rooms have large windows that provide a pleasing view of the inner-courtyard and the spacious bathroom is fitted with a walk-in shower. The breakfast is unlimited and consists of delicious, fresh servings that are satisfactory for the day. The hotel is clean and well-maintained, with a welcoming hosting staff and a comfortable atmosphere.
The wifi connection is unstable and can be unreliable at times.

We had a fantastic stay at this luxurious hotel. The location, right on the edge of the Old Town, was perfect for exploring and experiencing the charm of the area. The service was impeccable, from the friendly and knowledgeable staff to the efficient car hire service. The room itself was spacious and comfortable, with all the amenities we needed including heating and air conditioning.

The free toiletries and flat-screen TV were also a nice touch. we were impressed with the quality and attention to detail.
We highly recommend this hotel to our friends.

I recently stayed at the Byzantine Hotel in Rethymno for a few nights. This charming hotel, located just inside the gate opposite the public garden, exceeded my expectations in many ways. The room, housed in a beautifully renovated old building, was comfortable, clean, and equipped with great AC and Wi-Fi. The staff, especially Nikos, were incredibly friendly and helpful, providing excellent recommendations for beaches and attractions. The hotel's location was perfect, right next to the town center but on a quiet side road with free parking nearby. The breakfast, served and delicious, offered a variety of tasty options. it was a fantastic stay with excellent value for money.
Can't recommend highly enough this hotel.

The hotel was situated perfectly, right near all the attractions we wanted to visit. We loved that the breakfast was included with our stay and it was always delicious. Another great advantage was the rooftop terrace, where we enjoyed having tea in the morning while enjoying the stunning views.
The check-in process was a bit of a hassle. We had trouble getting in without a phone and had to wait half an hour for the owner to arrive and let us in.

The rooms at this hotel were spacious, clean, and offered stunning views. The bathroom was also spacious and well-maintained. The highlight of our stay was definitely the warm and welcoming host, Mr Nikos. He went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. The breakfasts were a delight, with fresh orange juice, homemade bread and cheese pies, and even homemade strawberry jam. Mr Nikos provided excellent advice and directions, and his attention to detail, such as playing jazz music during breakfast, created a wonderful atmosphere.
