The location is very good. In just a few steps you are on the beach. A lot of markets & restaurants are in the area. To the Venetian Old Port you have to walk around 10 min. The breakfast was ok. The staff was great. The room was ok (except the bathroom). The pool is ok. Small but ok.

One of our top picks in Rethymno.Just steps away from the seafront, in the centre of Rethymnon, this modern hotel offers easy access to the entrance of the old town with its narrow streets, medieval castle and picturesque Venetian port.

The well-appointed rooms are all air conditioned , featuring views of the city or the private garden of the hotel.

Offering authentic Cretan hospitality combined with 4-star comforts, the hotel features 72 spacious rooms with balconies overlooking the sea or the lush interior garden.

Achillion Palace also has a small courtyard garden with a fountain where guests can enjoy light refreshments throughout the day, as well as a breakfast room, cafe bar and lounge.

The hotel also benefits from a rooftop freshwater swimming pool and sun deck, which is open during daylight hours.

The long sandy beach is within easy walking distance (350 feet), as are the numerous restaurants, shops and bars, for which the town is known.

This is our guests' favorite part of Rethymno, according to independent reviews.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 8.8 for a two-person trip.

Street parking for our rental. The shower head/handle was positioned wrong in the tub which made for awkward washing.

The bathroom was not renovated (not like on the peictures) and the room was a bit small for 3 of us. The pool is also small and however it should be open until 8 pm, but we were allowed only for 10 minutes when we went there at 7 pm. Overall, not a really good value for this price.
The hotel is close to the beaches, but located in a relatively quite street.

“Good location & value for money.”

The bathroom in the room is a bit old and uncomfortable. The toilet paper is near to the power hose of the WC tank and from the condensation it get wet. Also the shower curtain which is not comfortable. They have no parking lots so if you rent a car you have to parked on the street. The street is full almost of the time so if you do not fiind a parking space you have to go to the Port to park it.(it s close but you have to pay around 10 Euro for 12 hours)
The location is very good. In just a few steps you are on the beach. A lot of markets & restaurants are in the area. To the Venetian Old Port you have to walk around 10 min. The breakfast was ok. The staff was great. The room was ok (except the bathroom). The pool is ok. Small but ok.

“Very pleasant stay at the heart of Rethymno!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Stayed 4 nights
I think that the ratio of the quality and the price could be better; by that I mean that I found the room overpriced. I have stayed in several hotels in Rethymno and the only excuse I can think for the price charged of is the high touristy season...
I liked the lovely cool garden, at the back of the hotel. It is a hidden gem and a very pleasant place for all times of the day!
