The property was located at the edge of the village but close to everything and had ample parking available. The breakfast was simple but nice. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Would stay there again

Excellent hotel, with very good taste in decoration and comfortable rooms in the heart of Paleochora. The location is great, just one step away from the restaurants and bars, but at the same time calm and quiet. The bed was super comfortable, the kitchen very well equipped, the bathroom very comfortable and clean. The communication with the properly was excellent and smooth, they are very kind and helpful with everything. We loved our stay and we would absolutely come back!

If you are looking for a small laid back beach town in Crete, this is a greatchoice. Many of the more full service touristy options are on the north side of the island, Palaiochora is on the south. You can drive from Palaichora to Chania in less than 1.5 hours : drive to Heraklion is closer to 3.5 hours.
Plenty of beaches, good food, good people. Not really a party crowd, at least when we were there at the end of the season. There are many options for boat trips, hiking and outdoor activities. Ebikes and similar are easy to rent.

Lovely relaxed seaside town - really chill atmosphere in the evenings with lots of restaurants along the sea front and in main and back streets serving great food and generous extras (bread, olives, small desserts and raki).
We enjoyed a good balance of some hiking (Aghia Irina Gorge was lovely and very quiet), hiring a car to explore the area and a couple of days of swimming, snorkelling and reading on the beach.
I expect Paleochora is heaving n high season, but in Kate September was wonderfully laid back - a few days here and a few in Chania& Rethymno was a really nice balance.
I would stay right in the town next time - lots of small studios advertised along the road from town to harbour looked nice, quiet and close to everything

Palauochora is lovely low key resort with great food and beaches. We really like the vibe of the town which is authentic and friendly. Highly recommended for 3-4 days or longer. Really like the fact that it can be easily accessed by a very efficient bus and ferry service. We’ll definitely be back

Pretty little town with a chilled vibe but still has some action. Excellent cocktail bar in the middle of town. Amazing sunrises on one side and the most stunning sunsets on the other side.
Sandy beaches for those who like that but rocky beaches on the ither side that offer great snorkelling opportunities.

What a lovely place this is.
What a lovely place this is. It has lots going on in the harbour town. With a very friendly vibe. Soooo many places to eat, either on the harbour front or in the lovely little narrow streets of the town.
The town beach near the harbour is pebbles but across town is a wonderful wide stretch of beach that is lovely and sandy. It did get a bit windy and this makes the sand blow around. So use the edge near the Castel.
The ferry comes into the main harbour , so although we didn't venture that far ypu could take day trips from there. Next time we will🙂
We will revisit- its one of those places that you want to return to.
Check-in was easy and efficient. The hotel staff were friendly and helpful. They were very knowledgeable about the hotel, local interests, and listened well in both Greek and English so that they were able to make satisfying recommendations for us. The hotel is conveniently located next to a lovely cafe that is open for breakfast and lunch, and it is also across from the beach. Want to shop or see a castle.... just a few minutes walk away.
Wonderful place and the best hosts in Crete. The studio was clean, the AC worked great, and housekeeping was done daily. It's located close to a supermarket, a sandy beach and a bakery. It's also a very short walk away from the center. The host was very polite and careful to all our needs. We stayed there for two weeks and it was one of the best holidays, we will definitely come here again.
Beautiful and authentic house, in a great location. We stayed in a small room and were very satisfied. The owner offered a larger room upstairs, but we didn't take it as we spent all our time on a thick sand beach, which is less than a minute walk. Great low-key restaurants as well, which we prefer a lot more than busy main streets full of tourists restaurants.
Small comfortable unpretentious hotel right opposite the sandy beach. Room had all the usual amenities and good wifi. Excellent and plentiful breakfast. Helpful staff. Private parking. Five minutes walk across the main street to the other side of the peninsula with pebbly beach, ferries, and most of the restaurants on the ‘promenade’.
This place has special vibes… if you need restart your mind, power - it is very good place. For living there are good comfortable room that includes small kitchen with everything, big balcony, nice view, nice mattress for sleeping. The villa for 5 minutes from Palaiochora by car. Perfect sand beach 3 min walk.
The hotel has its own almost private beach. Katerina who was an excellent host gave us water bottles, sunbeds and an umbrella to take with us at the beach. The balconies have a great view and the location is really quite. Would definitely go there again
Very nice location within walking distance to the beach, Bakery and supermarket. The owner/manager was very friendly and helpful with an introduction to the village and tips on what we could do. The rooms where very clean and they were cleaned daily.
Very nice pool
Super clean
Full-service hotel (bar, food, gym, etc) but with a personalized touch
Well located - on a small street - close to the center.
Dozens of restaurants and 5-10 mins walk to a nice beach
Very good breakfast buffet
Breakfast was very enjoyable, with a wide range of options. I found all aspects of our stay in Aris Hotel to be very satisfactory. There was a shower gel dispenser in the shower cubicle. Staff were very friendly and obliging.
Supremely cool dude (Stelios?) taking care of us at the hotel. This is the hotel that Pal was missing, one step up from everything else, room-wise. Short way to The Palm restaurant and it is right on the beach, just perfect.
Lovely room, right next to the sea. Excellent hospitality, Michael provided us with a wealth of local knowledge and suggestions to maximise our time in Palaiochora. We would definitely come back.
Thank you!
We stayed here for a single night only, but the room had a wonderful view right next to the beach and the staff prepared a breakfast platter to take to our own balcony and enjoy the peace and quiet.
This is a lovely beach town, the property is located by the sandy beach and close the restaurants around the corner. The balcony was nice to sit and have coffee but just faces another building.
The location is perfect, clean, modern, comfortable and with an amazing view. The staff is super, Maria gave us the right advices for eating and best beaches to visit.
Small hotel in a great location. 5 min walking to center and beach. Spectacular view from every room. Easy free parking. Good breakfast and great staff.
