Forest Park Hotel is located in a beautiful position on the hill above Rethymno, offering breathtaking views of the city, the sea, and stunning sunsets. From our balcony, we enjoyed a truly unforgettable panorama, which was one of the highlights of our stay. The hotel is best reached by car, as the walk to Rethymno Old Town takes around 25 minutes downhill, with the return journey requiring a climb back up the hill. However, the elevated location rewards guests with peace, quiet, and spectacular scenery. The hotel grounds are exceptionally well maintained, with beautiful gardens featuring olive and citrus trees. There are two swimming pools: a larger pool for swimming and a smaller relaxation pool. Both were spotless and very inviting. The pool bar offers drinks, snacks, and food throughout the day, and the staff prepared excellent cocktails. The entire team was friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help. We also enjoyed the breakfast, which was generous, varied, and delicious. The room was a little compact for two people, but it was clean, comfortable, and equipped with everything we needed, including towels, a mini fridge, and complimentary water. The bathroom was spacious, modern, and very clean. What impressed us most was the hospitality of the staff. After check-out, we still had several hours before heading to the airport, and the hotel kindly allowed us to continue using the pool and facilities. This thoughtful gesture made our final day much more enjoyable, and we are very grateful for their kindness. Overall, Forest Park Hotel exceeded our expectations. The beautiful location, stunning views, excellent facilities, delicious breakfast, and exceptional staff made our stay truly memorable. We would happily recommend it to anyone visiting Rethymno.

We spent a week here and couldn't be more satisfied! The rooms are clean, spacious, well-equipped, and easily accessible (really important for guests with physical difficulties). Just one advice, bring a hair dryer with yourself, but that was barely noticeable. The staff was simply lovely and always ready to help whenever needed. If you need something for the room or have general questions about nearby places that you want to explore, they will be more than willing to give you advice! Breakfast, while not included in the original price, can be ordered day-for day, and it's a lot of food, we were never able to finish it in a single day. All in all, we will definitely stay here next year if we decide to be in Rethymno. We already miss you! With regards Dimitar :)

Clean, modern boutique hotel. A friendly welcome by reception and was given an upgrade without having to ask!

Overall Impression: We stayed at Atrium Ambiance for 5 nights (July 17–22), and it was a wonderful experience from start to finish. The atmosphere is quiet, relaxed, and perfect for couples—a peaceful retreat with very few young children around. Room & Amenities: Our room was exceptionally clean and quiet, with daily housekeeping doing a thorough job. We were thrilled to receive a room upgrade featuring a private balcony with a Jacuzzi! The bed was very comfortable, there was a spacious closet, and having two espresso capsules replenished daily was a great touch. Food & Dining: We had both breakfast and dinner included, and both were outstanding. The menu changed daily, offering a great mix of local and international dishes. There was always a huge selection of fresh vegetables, spreads, fresh bread, soups, fruits, ice cream, and cakes. They are also extremely accommodating with food allergies and special requests. Location & Parking: The location is ideal—it's very close to the Old City, making it easy to explore while remaining peaceful at night. If you're driving, there is plenty of free parking in the area. Pool & Atmosphere: The hotel pool was immaculate, calm, and never overcrowded—a great place to unwind. The Staff: What truly sets this hotel apart is the incredible team. The staff feels like a big, welcoming family who are genuinely happy to help. Whether it was giving local trip recommendations, assisting with travel agency arrangements, or catering to dietary needs, they were always kind, attentive, and professional.

Hospitality at its best ! Clean and cosy rooms, good facilities, and very good food. The personnel is always friendly, smiley, and helpful. We will definitely return at Theartemis Palace!

Beautiful decor, lovely pool, nice room that was also very clean. A great value for money

What I did like the most was the people and the general atmosphere. Every evening there was an event that captivated both the adults and the children. Everyone from my family wants to make a re-do in the future.

Friendly and always helpful staff. Close to the sea. Modern and comfortable rooms with excellent lighting. I was quite pleased and relaxed with the whole experience. They offered us raki drink 😃

Localizare foarte buna. Hotel curat. Sincer au cele mai bune saltele pe pat. Eu prefer un pat mai tare.

The breakfast buffet was amazing and the staff were lovely. The facilities were good and the location was perfect for a walk into the old town, which was beautiful

I like everything about this hotel but what I like the most, is the fact that a lot of the stuff members remain in their position over the years and this gives this extra touch that turns a good holiday into a great one.

The staff makes you feel welcome, they make you feel like they will do anything to make you stay better

Great place. Unfortunately the weather was not so good. Amazing staff, pool is awesome, very different from the traditional blue ones. Nice restaurant, Service was ok. Definitely a place for family with kids.

“My stay was absolutely outstanding. Everything exceeded my expectations – from the spotless cleanliness of the entire place to the incredibly warm, helpful, and professional staff. Every single member of the team went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. The atmosphere was welcoming and relaxing, and the breakfast each morning was simply exceptional – fresh, varied, and delicious. I genuinely felt cared for and appreciated every moment of my stay. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for top-quality service and a truly memorable experience. I will definitely come back!”

The moment we arrived we were met with friendly faces and great service. Everyone made sure we were having a great time always. They even packed us a lunch since our flight was at 6am and we had to drive for an hour to the airport. Appreciated the attention to detail and the good was amazing as well.

Friendly staff, beautiful beach, delicious breakfast and snacks, great value for price

There is nothing not to like about this hotel! 😍😍

The best affordable hotel in Rethymno! Great location, wonderful staff, as we understood this is a lovely family business and they aproached our visit with love and dedication. Everyone was extremely friendly and welcoming! The breakfast was great with decent variety! Our room was cute and small, but really clean at all times, and bed was comfortable, it even has a speaker with a few stations! There is a free parking right down the street at the right side of the port. We really enjoyed the stay and we wholeheartedly recommend this hotel! We might return, too!

Mary was so helpful during the check in process and made me feel right at home during my stay. The room was cozy, clean and felt spacious. The shower is wonderful! The modern feel of it was relaxing. It’s a few steps from the beach and a few great restaurants. It was easy to park on the street as well (free). It’s a 30 minute walk to old town or you can rent an e-scooter at the beach and ride that to town.

Perfect stay. Clean, spacious room and very welcoming staff. The hotel is well located across the street from a sandy beach and within walking distance of numerous restaurants and the old town.

A warm welcome when we arrived. Our room was lovely with an excellent side view to the sea. Bed was comfortable and the bathroom spotlessly clean. Buffet breakfast was one of the best we have seen. It was only a 20 min walk into the lovely old town (mainly on one level) with plenty of restaurants close to the beach but we ate at the hotels A-la-carte restaurant which served some of the best food we have ever had. We were there in April and there never seemed any problem with finding a sun lounger by the pools or o the beach. What really made it for us were the lovely staff who were so friendly and helpful. From the head waiter in the A-la-carte right down to the cleaners all the staff made us feel so welcome. his was our first visit but we will be back.
