What a fantastic hotel! If I could give it 6* I would. About an hour from Chania airport by taxi, only a 15-20min walk from Rethymno old town. The views from the hotel are simply beautiful. We stayed in a superior sea view room (810) and would come back in a heartbeat. The rooms were modern and kept very clean. Never have I stayed somewhere with such a view! The staff are all very friendly and helpful. The cleaning staff must work very hard as our room was spotless during our whole stay. Andreas at the bar made great food and even better cocktails, so it was a slight shame the pool bar closed partway through our stay, although completely understandable due to the season being practically over and not many guests at the hotel. The weather during the 2nd week of October was great and allowed us to have some gorgeous days out (I know this isn’t anything to do with the hotel but before I came I was searching reviews to see if I could get an idea of what the weather would be like at this time of year, and we had a couple of warm slightly overcast mornings but overall sun and 22 to 27 degrees, clear skies). The pool is lovely and refreshing and the sea in front of the hotel is divine. The beds were exceptionally comfortable and the shower was excellent! The only tiny downside I can possibly think of was that there wasn’t a great choice for breakfast (I would suggest perhaps fresh fruit to go with yoghurt or some nuts maybe?) but it had enough for my husband and I to have a snack before exploring. Again this could be down to it being the end of the season? Rethymno old town is magic, we ate there most evenings (would recommend To Pigadi, To Parastratima & Castelo especially!), there is also a lovely gyros place/grill about 9 mins walk left of the hotel called Peppers, and when the pool bar had closed and we wanted a quick lunch we found a nice bakery/cafe 5 mins left also, Noulis. Overall we had a truly fantastic stay at this hotel and would love to come again! Thanks to all the team at Archipelagos
