Lock in a great price for Aris Hotel – rated 9.1 by recent guests!

to get started.

Staff were very friendly and gave lots of great tips for restaurants and beaches to visit.

Jensully, Sweden

This is a lovely hotel to stay in. It's located in a quite area of Paleochora but close to the center and sea. The room was modern, confortable and very clean. It has air conditioning, comfortable bed, fast wifi and a nice small balcony to drink your coffe or smoke. Common sitting area was lovely with vinyl records and books. Owner and stuff were super friendly, warm and helpful! Overall, i highly recommend staying here.

Flora, United Kingdom

Everything! True Greek seaside experience in a beautiful little town. The breakfast was delicious and healthy with local food. The rooms were spacious, clean and modern with amazing ocean views. I wish I had known that these small towns are where you want to stay. Because we have 4 kids, we were under the impression we had to stay in a big beach resort town. However, my kids (especially us parents) loved Aris Hotel and didn’t miss the loud music, bungy jumping, amusement park feel of northern Crete. The Host was so very helpful and honest with his opinions on local attractions. We appreciated this, instead of the gimmicky salesman ship of the resort towns. Every single staff member was warm and welcoming.

Ednamae, Italy

Friendly staff always happy to chat and offer suggestions (if requested), clean and comfortable, relaxed atmosphere, good breakfast on the terrace, off the beaten track but a short stroll to the centre of the village.

Nick, United Kingdom

Overall attention by staff was great and not intrusive.

Superb peaceful accommodation with a great view of the sea Aris was a friendly host and Yannis a great asset to the property Excellent choice of food for breakfast BEAUTIFUL gardens

Mark, United Kingdom

Fabulous garden and outlook, very stylish lounge area with vinyl record and book collection. Great staff, nice breakfast available 7.30 to 11.00, in lounge or on terrace. Spotlessly clean, modern showers, good bed, kettle and hot drinks supplies in the bedroom

Valerie, United Kingdom

Super little hotel. Very clean and the beds were unbelievably comfortable. Breakfast was an international buffet style, so hams, cheeses, cereal, yoghurt, tomatoes and olives, fresh bread and pastries. Super friendly family run. Within a short walk to the beach and all the tavernas in town. The garden is really pretty and full of driftwood sculptures and other artwork so a lovely place to sit.

Norfolk, United Kingdom

Very basic but clean room with comfortable bed. Working wifi. Free parking on the street outside of the hotel. In walking distance from the town center and restaurants. The staff offered us bicycles for moving.

눉We have traveled both on- and off-season here and there, but this was the first time we were told in a hotel that they were "not prepared" for guests cause the season usually starts later, with such a tone it made us wonder are we really welcome there or not. We booked the hotel months beforehand so we did not come unexpectedly. Just a little hint: if you don't want paying customers do not take bookings.
눇Very basic but clean room with comfortable bed. Working wifi. Free parking on the street outside of the hotel. In walking distance from the town center and restaurants. The staff offered us bicycles for moving.
