Thoroughly enjoyed our week here in one of the Junior Suites - lovely to wake up to a beautiful sea view. All staff demonstrated the highest levels of politeness, friendliness and helpfulness throughout the stay, with a special mention to Vicky on reception, who was an absolute fount of knowledge and suggestions. Many thanks to everyone for making our visit so wonderful.

This property was suggested by ebooker's rep. after failing to original book online. This studio apartment was superb with all necessary newly equipped furniture and fantastic sea/beach view from the bedroom. Also in quiet location in front with open square. Restaurant , Bar, & reception staffs very helpful. Option to have towels & bedsheets change frequently. I would definitely go again here

Happy with our choice

It was a very clean, small hotel at the end of the long sandy beach area. It was quite far from the old city to walk there every day, but there are a good couple of nice restaurants nearby. The room was spacious with basic equipment in the kitchenette. Generally, we were happy with our choice but must mention a couple of things in the hope it will improve the hotel further. - Breakfast was very basic and repetitive. During our 10 day stay, we found every day the same food, which we got bored with after a few days. It would have been nice to see variety in pastries, ham, eggs or even fruits. - Showergel and shampoo...every time we had to ask for it. - The open shower was very narrow what made the whole bathroom flooding after use. On the positive side: - The staff was very friendly and helpful.

The Aristea at Rethymno

My overall experience of the Aristea Hotel was excellent from the friendliness and helpful staff, especially Vicky on reception. The hotel was very clean, well laid out and a very pleasing and relaxing environment.

Excellent location for Rethymno. Good size rooms / apartments. Not as clean as others (kitchen smelt damp inside cupboards). Power cut one evening (not their fault) but there wasn’t anyone there to reassure guests / help / let them know what was going on. Decor a little dated (but reasonable for price). Building site in front of hotel (also not their fault and looks like it will improve the hotel once finished, but would have been nice to be forewarned). Noisy water pump on roof meaning we were awake for a lot of the first night. We were put on second floor with a three year old and there is no lift. Not enough parking for guests staying. Not particularly secure (no front door that was locked at night, anyone could come up the stairs to the door of your apartment)

A hidden gem...

We took an off season break (17-24 October). I am disabled and this was our first holiday with my electric scooter and third one abroad since my accident nearly 6 years ago. Phoebe and all the other staff were very helpful and accommodating. They responded to my e-mail request of a room with a sea view on to the first floor (due to my mobility problems) by providing a room that overlooked the pool with a direct sea view where I could people watch and admire the view without climbing too many stairs. The room was clean, well decorated, functional with everything we needed for eating our breakfast/lunch or having snacks. The beds were comfortable with cotton sheets, the room was serviced regularly and fresh white fluffy towels were given every few days. We followed Phoebe's advice and frequented local tavernas, villages, sites and were never disappointed. My wheelchair got 5* treatment and carried me right to the flight of stairs to our room. We tested the bar, pool and sunbeds and enjoyed every one. Everyone was friendly, polite and nothing was too much trouble. I even asked if the owner had another hotel at different locations on the island. For us, it was a lovely holiday where we made good memories. Thank you all for making our holiday so relaxing.

Excellent small hotel

Excellent location, nice and quiet but near sea and prom. 30 mins walk into town. Parking in street. large room with big balcony with sea view and small balcony with courtyard view. Staff really helpful and friendly. Perfectly adequate breakfast. Basic kitchen in room. Only 6 hangers so travel light or bring your pens. Not a lot of drawer space either but perhaps we take too much luggage.

Lovely Hotel Appartment near Rethymnon

The Aristea Hotel was very comfortable and spotlessly clean. We had a sea view studio, which was spacious and and well-appointed, with a full kitchen. It was about 2' from a lovely mostly sandy beach, but unfortunately the sea was very rough on the days we were there, so couldn't really enjoy it. The area had some very good restaurants nearby and was about 10' by car from the centre of Rethymnon. We had breakfast at the the hotel most days and it was tasty with quite a lot of choice. Parking was adjacent to the hotel.The only downside I can think of is the Wifi, which was patchy, especially in the room, better in the lobby area. I also have to mention the very kind and helpful staff, Vicky and Vivian. I would stay here again and would recommend this hotel to friends and family.

Perfectly sited quiet hotel close to beach

Friendly staff, well kept & clean hotel, great facilities - lovely pool with sun beds, umbrellas, changing/toilet facilities, pool bar, plenty of choice at breakfast buffet. Rooms good with regular cleaning & sheet changes. Great location close to beach (with sunsets to die for) near to lots of restaurants & shops and a 30 minute walk into main Rethymnon town along promenade. Teenage son appreciated basketball court right next to hotel (quiet though). With hire car easy to reach Chania, Heraklion, South Coast beaches & lots of interesting places in between - Kalyves beach, Kournas Lake, Prevelli Beach, Knossos, WaterCity waterpark, Arkadi Monastery, Elaftherma Ancient Site, Marguerites pottery village and Rethymnon Fortezza & Venetian harbour/lighthouse all worth a visit. Stunning scenery & friendly local who couldn't do enough to help & make us feel welcome.

Great hotel very close the beach.

The room was larger than expected, clean, and provided all of the necessary items - towels, beds, a table and chairs, cutlery, dishes, a coffee maker, a fridge, and a small hob. There was a lovely little balcony with a clothes drying rack as well. It was super close to the beach - only a minute or two walk. Staff was lovely and friendly and very accommodating. I would highly recommend. Breakfast was delicious as well. There is also a pool and bar area outside.

2 star and then some - fully recommend.

Stayed for 5 nights at the artistea and if this is the level of a 2* then I'll be doing it again. Room was big and comfortable with ample facilities, local beach was lovely and on the doorstep and the hotel staff were brilliant - special mention to Vicky who was helpful above and beyond. The buffet breakfast however needs a bit of work and the pool area ok at best, but access to the really nice beach made it ok. Would recommend as a cheap and cheerful stay with everything you need to enjoy a sun break.
