Loved this hotel! It was in walking distance to lake and to shopping/restaurants! The breakfast was amazing with a huge selection of items. What made it even better was the staff!!!!! Will be back again really soon!
We loved the location, right next to the sea and convenient to shops and restaurants.
The staff were warm, friendly and helpful. Breakfast buffet was exceptional. All areas were very clean and well maintained and the lobby area was remarkable.
Lovely buffet breakfast, the hot items would be perfect if hotter. Very convenient location for restaurants,bars and shops. Very clean in all areas, very friendly staff . A few more umbrellas around the pool areas would help.
Beautiful hotel. We upgraded to a sea view room with plunge pool which was stunning. The staff couldn’t do more for you and always greeted us with a smile. Brilliantly situated, just a short stroll to the centre of town on the flat. Would definitely recommend
Amazing hotel with awesome view and great staff! I have travelled 45 countries and this hotel is first class! Get a room with a pool! Live dj at the pool everyday. Breakfast rocks. Stayed 8 days -loved it!
Really nice place great value close to town center ... could do without the little pool that's on the patio it's basically a bathtub that kills your view of the ocean.. the pools are outstanding !! the breakfast was 35 euro per person which is grossly overpriced but over all really nice place with great customer service
One of the best hotels weve ever used. It had a stunning view. The pool was an infinity pool overlooking the sea. It was possible to swim in the sea as well by accessing a patio area located across the road. It was close to town for shopping and dining options. Breakfast was amazing. I would highly recommend!
Breakfast was more Holiday Inn express standard
Room faced a busy road and outside entrance so extremely noisy . Not shown on website or when booking.
Rooms were barely serviced
Pools have amazing view but be warned are not heated . Indoor pool is pretty cold also most people got out immediately . Nice sauna though
Good location if you are looking to stay in that part of Crete
For uni the concierge was awesome! Great recommendation, helpful, professional!
We had few issues during our stay and we were mostly disappointed that no one followed up with that (issues with the light in the room and alarm that disturbed our sleep)
The issues was not resolved, but the main disappointment was that no one took the time to proactively share any update and let us know if they even looked at it
We absolutely loved our stay it was great from the breakfast to the stay to the location to everything.
The staff are very friendly and professional.
Will definitely be back again
The property is absolutely beautiful overlooking mirabello bay! Breakfast is delicious and has a ton of options to pick from while you sit by the pool on the 5th floor overlooking the ocean as well. The beds slightly firm but are very comfortable and nice. Everything in the hotel looks modern and new still.
Next level service and amenities. Incredible breakfast buffet overlooking the ocean.

Brought up front on our day of departure without asking. Just plain amazing people.
