Good location when going to Balos, and nice staff. Biggest problem was the smell from the bathroom. It woke us up the first night smelling so bad. We went out in the morning and the smell was gone when we returned in the afternoon. But then it came back again same night. Checked out next day. Apart from the smell the hotel was okey, nothing more nothing less.

Clean. Comfortable. Great views of the sea Excellent spot before early morning drive to balos beach. 12 euros for 2 small (tiny) coffee was our only complaint. It was decent but expensive . Room was about $94 CAN and they give you a gift on arrival.

Magisk utsikt!

Väldigt fint läge på hotellet. En utsikt från poolen som verkligen är oslagbar. Fina rum med lika fin utsikt. Restaurangen är medelmåttig men det ligger mysiga restauranger i en by på gångavstånd. Rekommenderat hotell för några nätter.

Alles in allem top, man darf nicht vergessen das es ein 3 Sterne Hotel ist. Pool, Essen, Ausblick alles prima! Der Sonnenaufgang- ein Traum! Im Zimmer müffelt es leider etwas durch das viele Holz - Der Wasseranschluss im Schlafbereich trägt wohl massgebliche dazu bei . Das ein oder andere Eck ist leider etwas zugemüllt. Wir würden aber definitiv wieder kommen!

Ett Hotell som är beläget vid vägen till Balos berömda beach.Det gör att det är Rally förbi hela dagen och till 19 på kvällen.Det positiva är att det är ett fantastiskt hotell med havsutsikt från nästan alla rum.Mycket trevlig och serviceinriktad personal.Fin pool som iaf.under våran vistelse var glest besökt.Restaurang som serverar Frukost,Lunch och på kvällen buffé.1,2km.från Hotellet finns en by med 3-4 Tavernor.

Hotel ubicato in posizione bellissima poichè tranquilla, immersa nella natura e lontana dai centri abitati. Staff eccezionale per efficienza e cortesia; ottimo il ristorante, sia a colazione che a cena; camera (monolocale superior vista mare, 1° piano) comoda, ben accessoriata e con una vista spettacolare. Consigliatissimo per chi cerca tranquillità, silenzio, natura e relax.

Relaxing and beautiful spot to rest

Staff here are almost as lovely as the views. Breakfast was delicious with lots of variety. The bedroom was comfortable and clean, AC worked (except when you had to leave the room with the key) but the bathroom is weird with the showers allowing water to flood the floor (this is normal in Greece I think). Taxi's charge a lot to get to and from here- so book a rental! Overall- very happy with my stay and look forward to going back!

Calme et vue sur mer

Cet hôtel est situé au pied de la route menant à Balos. La vue sur la mer est absolument magnifique. Le personnel est également très sympathique et accueillant. Cependant, la chambre était très vétuste et la salle de bain était très sale, ce qui n'est pas acceptable pour un hôtel de cette catégorie et à ce prix. De plus, nous n'avons eu qu'un drap, nous avons trouvé une vieille couverture dans l'armoire mais qui ne sentait pas bon.

I needed a night stay near Balos beach and this was ideal location to enjoy my trip next day. Rooms were nice but the headboard of bed was little uncomfortable. There was counter sticking at the top of headboard which I hit my head multiple times. Its an easy fix by installing padding chusion of 3 inches on headboard.

Nice hotel in quiet area

We stayed 1 week in a nice appartment. A nice hotel 1 hour from Chania airport. Rental car is a good idea. Nice area with good snorkling by the stone beach. There are no umbrellas nor sunbeds at the beds (as seen in the hotels's pictures). Pool was great too and we had no problems finding a good spot. The very small kitchen was very limited the very only plates etc for 4 people (enough) and ONLY 2 small pots. No frying pan, chopping board, bowls or similar. So don't plan to cook to many dinners yourself. There are great restaurants in Kissamos and one 1 km away. The hotel offers only buffet in the evening.
