I was upgraded to a huge room with a lovely balcony. It was a mix of updated and traditional Greek layout. The kitchen had all appliances you would require. The bed, however, it was not very comfortable very hard. However, overall a great hotel to stay close to Malia strip but still very peaceful. Lovely pool area. Food and drink reasonably priced and lovely staff

There was no emphasis on cleanliness, was there for 4 days and no changes to bedsheets and towels for all 4 days. Stinky common toilets near pool and the stench of it exists near main entrance and in common balcony. EnsuiteToilets are fairly basic too. Not at all a good experience.

Excellent stay at Dedalos Hotel! Me and my mates stayed over here for a lads holiday, and we were very happy and impressed with the amazing customer service and hospitality we were provided with. Firstly, the hotel is absolutely beautiful, scenic and provides a relaxing, homely atmosphere and scenery. It was very calming to stay here, and all your stresses will be relieved. Honestly, this has got to be one of the most beautiful hotels I’ve stayed in, and it’s just very special and charismatic. When we first saw the hotel on Expedia, we fell in love with the scenery. The buffet breakfast was delicious, and there were loads of options. Wow, those Madeira cakes were out of this world! Everything is cooked fresh and it’s absolutely delicious. The staff were very friendly and the room service was provided adequately and everything was maintained to the highest standards. This honestly felt like a 4 star hotel, not a 3 star. The facilities are mesmerising and the hotel is in a very good location, literally a stone throw away from the Malia strip and very close to other local amenities such as supermarkets, restaurants, clothing shops etc. Overall, I would highly recommend Dedalos Hotel to you.

Frühstücksbuffet war in Wieserholung und wechsel zwischen Spiegel-, und im Ofen gebackenes Rührei leider wenig abwechslungsreich und nach ein paar Tagen keine Offenbarung mehr. Da könnte dringend was geändert werden. Parkplätze sind ein Problem, denn es gibt leider nur 3. Entweder man hat Glück, oder man muss gegenüber auf einem Parkplatz 10 Euro/Tag löhnen. 60 Euro für 7 Tage oder 3 Euro pro Stunde. Diesbezüglich wird, so wurde uns berichtet, leider nichts vom Hoteleigentümer unternommen.

Complex zit vol jongeren dus tot diep in de nacht veel lawaai. Sanitair is erg verouderd en de badkamer is erg muf. Malia heeft voor mensen boven de 25 niet veel te bieden; is heel erg toeristisch. Personeel is erg vriendelijk en behulpzaam.

Voor de prijs die je betaald is het een goed hotel, maar de staat van een aantal zaken kunnen beter, o.a. de airco in de kamer die niet goed werkt, algehele staat van het appartement is redelijk. Er wordt wel elke dag schoongemaakt en dit is een plus punt. Accommodatie ligt ongeveer 100 meter van het bruisende leven van Malia, maar dit hoor je niet in het hotel.
