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

to get started.

Delightful family run hotel. Superb breakfast. Lovely ambience. Quiet, but within easy distance of all the town’s facilities. Friendly and helpful staff.

Jacqui, United Kingdom

Great location, for those who like to be on the peaceful edge of things, but it is still only a 5-10 min walk to all main shops/bars and restaurants. Beautiful gardens, not far from waters edge so you can experience great sunset views. Comfortable, big room, which was modern and clean. Overall, friendly chilled vibe, with friendly and helpful staff. Oh and great breakfast too!

Fareena, United Kingdom

Location Breakfast was good Staff helpful, attentive, friendly Nice clean rooms, balcony, air conditioning good

Drafus, United Kingdom

Charming welcoming personnel always keen to ensure the best for their clients. Excellent breakfast and so diffficult to resist eating too much!! Different breads, cakes, fruit, cheese, cold meats, eggs, tomatoes, cereals and of course yoghurt and honey. Delicious freshly pressed orange juice.

Beverley, France

Friendly, competent, and memorable staff. This place instantly feels like an old friend, I mean that in a good way!

Michele, United States of America

We liked the location a lot, a bit outside the main traffic but with easy walking access to everything. The rooms were very clean and the staff was very nice and helpful.

Frank, Switzerland

Everything. Staff friendly and helpful without being “in your face”. Rooms individually designed, with comfortable beds, good functioning hot water and air-conditioning, delightful balconies. Beautiful sculpture garden. Above all, the breakfasts were superb, with lovely breads, cakes, fresh and dried fruit, local olives and nuts, home made jams, olive paste and always something different every day, from avocado salad to cinnamon biscuits.

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.

눉The rooms are really small and probably not appropriate for a longer stay. There is very little privacy as the balconies are shared and other guests pass the balconies to join their rooms. If guests are chatting a bit on their balcony “space” in the evening, you just hear everything.
눇We liked the location a lot, a bit outside the main traffic but with easy walking access to everything. The rooms were very clean and the staff was very nice and helpful.

눉I didn’t know about it sooner.
눇Everything! 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.
