The hotel is beautifully situated in the old town center, with a rich 700-year history and surrounded by charming alleys and shops. The rooms are amazing and comfortable, but on the ground floor near the courtyard restaurant. The service provided was outstanding, making me feel like part of the family. The courtyard restaurant offers great food, although breakfast could have more variety. Overall, a fantastic location with a few minor dining and room location cons.

Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience. The location in the center of Rethymno was ideal for exploring the old town, but managing heavy luggage could be a challenge. The rooms were comfortable, but their placement near the restaurant entrance was a bit inconvenient. The dining experience lacked some variety, but the courtyard dining area was a highlight of the winter season.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The room was clean, comfortable, and nicely decorated in the character of the property, an old Venetian monastery. The staff was amazing and polite, making my experience delightful. The location is perfect, right in the heart of the Old Town with fantastic restaurants nearby, though a bit of a hassle with parking. The dining experience was a highlight, offering an amazing feast, although the prices could be more budget-friendly.

The hotel offers a unique stay in Traditional Venetian and Cretan style rooms, with a comfy bed. The service was blissful and attentive, but some noise late at night was noticeable. The location is perfect for exploring the Old Town and enjoying a vibrant dining scene, though noise from nearby bars could be a downside. The dining experience featured a fabulous array of Cretan produce but could offer more variety. The facilities provided a high-quality experience.
