Comments from our managers

We were greeted with fresh strawberry juice, the hotel is mostly family-friendly, but in general for everyone. Children's corner from 11 to 17:00 regardless of parents' meals. Stroller 25€ for the entire stay, potties 10€ for the entire stay; iron, sterilizer for bottles - everything is available for a fee. Internet is free throughout the territory. The hotel has Russian-speaking staff. Eat football club Arsenal. Very good deluxe hotel for family vacation. By the way, cocktails, whiskey, etc. good imported drinks.

Another wonderful representative of the Grekotel chain! I would especially like to note the number of rooms: everything is in perfect condition. The only caveat: if you are traveling with children, make a note that the room is on the 2-3 floor since the floor there is not tiled! The hotel is not in perfect new condition; a demanding VIP client will notice nuances in small things, but they are minimal. Wide sandy beach. near the village of Rethymnon. The hotel is ideal for all categories of tourists, but with a special emphasis on family vacations.

I really liked the hotel. A beautiful area, the last renovation took place in 2009. Hotel for family holidays. Located just 4 km. from the very beautiful city Crete - Rethymno. The widest sandy beach, sand and pebble sunset. In my opinion standard rooms You can safely send it to the deluxe category. There are only suites on the 4th floor. There is a family maisonette, I would not recommend it, the steps are not at all safe. Upon arrival you will receive a gift from the hotel - wine and a basket of fruit.

A magnificent hotel with a very large area. Operates on half board, you can exchange dinner for lunch, all inclusive for children in the mini-club. There is a church on site for weddings, in general the hotel is very pleasant and comfortable. Consists of a main building and a bungalow, carpet in the main building, tiles in the bungalow. Nice wide sandy beach and good location close proximity to Rethymnon is a big plus.

Location

The hotel is located 65 kilometers from the city of Chania to the east and 79 kilometers from the city of Heraklion to the west. From the center of Rethymno to the hotel 4 kilometers. The hotel is located on the seashore, surrounded by tropical trees and plants.

Beach

sandy, about 300 meters long, sunbeds and umbrellas free, beach robes free

  • I went to May 2010 to prepare for the exam, chose a hotel so that I could practically not get out of it and read, since I had been to Crete before and had already seen a lot. The room was in a bungalow on the second floor, everything in the room was excellent - bed, bedding, sofa, welcome fruit and wine, only in the bathroom everything was a little old and pretty shabby (I am very sensitive to this). There are no other comments - the hotel is excellent, the area is nice, the beach is very close and good, at the beginning of May, from about 11, the sea warmed up and you could swim (without swearing and for a long time). Very nice staff, everyone is polite and helpful. I’ve never eaten so deliciously anywhere before, I was initially skeptical about the almost Michelin stars promoted by the travel agency, but I was convinced that they were right - organic products from our own farm really rule, even the simplest dishes are amazingly tasty and fresh! in the morning strawberries (small, not chemical!) and other fruits, natural yoghurts, dakos and other crackers-pies, honey different types, in general, there was a wide variety of Cretan dishes, fresh juices. sometimes there were queues for the chefs at dinner, but it was worth it - a piece of leg of lamb is cooked on a spit and cut right into your plate, or even a banal Caesar, but prepared from the freshest ingredients right in front of you - these are simply standards of what these dishes should be. Greek wines are traditionally not my thing, but Erdinger Weiss was a theme at dinner. I didn’t understand the review at all, where the food was bad, I really just had some kind of gastronomic extravaganza. There was also a Halfie corner with something dietary, for those who care. I only went to the spa a couple of times - the massage was very good, I also went to one Ayurvedic procedure for my back - I wasn’t very enthusiastic, but I just don’t like anything that smells strongly. although if you're being picky, the roof in the nail salon leaked a little). in the evenings on the beach in the bar they put up such tents - very picturesque and romantic at sunset. I understand that you could reserve a table there and order something a la carte. the single ticket cost less than 800 euros, I think it’s simply an excellent price/quality ratio. Another downside is that it was very noisy, a huge company of policemen from Donetsk came with their families, they were having a blast)).
    out of 5* in Crete I can only compare with Elunda Beach - there is a much more luxurious hotel - with old ladies in diamonds at dinner, with wooden "yacht" floors in rooms and buildings, Jacuzzis and steam rooms in rooms, yacht berths right next to the suites and very technologically advanced and advanced SPA, but in terms of food it was DEFINITELY inferior to Grekotel - there was little of everything, the choice was small, the buffet was really 4 times smaller, everything was somehow overcooked and over-greasy, the fresh vegetables even seemed not very good, and this despite the fact that in I was in Elounda after a two-month diet and even any cracker seemed like a Michelin-starred delicacy)))

    We vacationed at the Grecotel Creta Palace as a family (2 adults and 2 children) from 10.20-10.28.19 This is our third visit here. To be honest, it’s not bad, but Grekotel is not the same anymore!! Pros: -large and green area, -huge number of rooms, -always kind and smiling staff, -wonderful woman - artist at Atelier! Knows how to interest both children and adults. - wide beach. - always clean beach - the presence of a heated pool, and this turned out to be very important, since in a simple children’s pool with slides, children were freezing and could not stay there longer than 10-20 min., - good cuisine, but cannot be compared with the variety of dishes in 2012 and 2014!! Cons: -the rooms urgently need renovation! We lived in a family bungalow garden view. The furniture is stained! Dirty windows and curtains. A stained bed in the parents' bedroom. -cold water in the pools, but this is probably not thought out in this hotel. Children go to the pool with slides and run away from it, frozen. -cleaning...so-so... -guest relation work. To put it mildly, I was a little surprised! Let me make a reservation, we are regular guests of the Grecotel hotel chain. We were greeted, of course, with drinks and juices. We were shown to our room and forgot... Probably the end of the season, everyone was tired and everything is learned by comparison, but not once in 7 days did the girl from guest relations ask if we were happy with our vacation and if everything was fine with us. We are not scandalous and not stellar people . This didn’t bother us too much, but it did surprise us. This year we vacationed at the Grecotel Olympia oasis in the Peloponnese, where we encountered a completely different attitude and care! Every day the employee came up and asked if everyone was happy and if they needed help. A small thing, but nice! There is no such thing here! Meeting us at breakfast and lunch, the worker had no questions;) probably tired by the end of the season....;)) Another real problem turned out to be the neighbors smoking! We have a non-smoking family. The room was on the second floor and the door to the balcony could not be opened! Since the neighbors below regularly took a smoke break in their clearing. Honestly! It was very disturbing! I would probably suggest to the management to separate the rooms into smoking and non-smoking ones, especially since there are a lot of families with small children in the hotel. And another very small nuance and trifle. I already wrote above that this is our third stay at this hotel. I was a little surprised by this fact, don’t take it as picky. A Family Bungalow garden view room was booked. Of course, we understood that no one would put us in a room of the highest category and with a sea view :), although I want to make a reservation here... while vacationing in the same hotel in September 2014, we were very pleasant We were surprised when, instead of a Family Bungalow garden view room, we, as regular guests of Grekotel, were, as a bonus, placed in a room of the best category. Even with a view of the garden, but then this little thing was a very pleasant surprise. The room is many times larger! This time the managers strictly followed everything! We ordered a Bungalow Family garden view, you get it! What a surprise! What are you talking about!😂 Actually, we didn’t apply. Thank you, at least they listened to my wishes and accommodated us higher, but when the hotel was not fully occupied. At the end of the season (the hotel is open until 4.11), place regular guests in a room overlooking the utility rooms and each waking up in the morning to the sound of garbage trucks and broken glass was not very pleasant! It seems like a small thing, but the sediment remains! Think about this, dear hotel management! Number 653! 👏👌 Since we only arrived for a week and we are not conflicting people, we didn’t go to sort things out at the reception, but I couldn’t help but write about it! Summary: despite the many letters, thank you for reading, I’ll say this: Great management of Grecotel! You have wonderful staff on the beach, in the main restaurant, etc. Everyone is kind and smiling, but learn to appreciate and notice that people come back to you year after year!! We have been to many hotels in the Grecotel chain. We always received warmth and comfort, but unfortunately we didn’t feel it here! Congratulations to the Pavlyukov family! Riga.
