Rethymnon is one of the most well-preserved Venetian old towns on the island of Crete. Its 16th-century buildings are stunning examples of ancient architecture, and the monolithic Fortezza reflects both European and Moorish influences. Explore the magical waterfalls, rock formations, and ‘"cave church" of Saint Anthony Gorge before taking a pleasant evening stroll along the colorful Venetian Harbor. Relax in a taverna over a plate of Cretan meze, like fresh feta drizzled with local olive oil.

Veneto is a Venetian mansion of the 15th century located in the Old Town of Rethymno, close by the shopping district, the museums and numerous cafes. The building has been renovated with respect to the character and architecture of its time, and consists of six Standard Suites, four Junior Suites and two Deluxe Suites. All Veneto rooms are fully equipped with all the amenities of a 4 star hotel and maintain a combination of traditional and contemporary character.
We stayed two nights as part of a Crete biking adventure (cycle Greece.com). The room was comfortable and the atmosphere of the whole place was historic and interesting. We ate dinner both nights at the restaurant, as the food was fresh and amazing and the staff was engaging and friendly. Salads were great, fish was terrific, wine yummy too.

Barbara Studios is, and has been, a real Cretan family home, welcoming travelers coming from all over the world since 1969, respecting the meaning of the Greek word "Filoxenia". If you wish to feel like a "Rethymnian", then this will be your real home in Rethymno. :-) In this 1600's Venetian building, the Venetian and Ottoman heritage, the exotic scents and the magnificent architecture, all endowed to us by the lords and merchants who lived here in the ancient times, is still real and is immediately revealed when you step through the front door for the first time. The tradition of hospitality has been alive at Barbara Studios, since 1969. Barbara family's Cretan love, our love, is the same love which was generously passed to us by our ancestors born and raised in Crete, the island and the mother of world's hospitality. Zeus birthplace.
Perfect location in the centre of Rethymno old town, great host (thanks again Iro!), comfortable, clean and well-appointed rooms. AC, shower, fridge in excellent working order. The mattress, pillows and linen very comfortable!

In the centre of Rethymno city we created a hotel of 23 apartments & suites,every one of them fully equipped with electrical devices.Once you enter our hotel you realise the unique decoration and the warm hospitality of our staff.On the 5th floor where the roofgarden is, there is a pool-jacuzzi and sunbeds.One of our suites also have a private jacuzzi.The location is perfect.
Such a warm and friendly welcome from all the staff. Our junior suite had plenty of space for the three of us (using a travel cot). The kitchenette was well equipped and very handy when catering for a little one. Great drench shower and comfortable pillows! Lovely area of town - yummy cafes, close to beach, handy supermarkets but only a short walk to the old town. Would definitely stay again if we come back to Rethymno.

Melitti Hotel is favourably located a few metres from the sandy beach of Rethymnon and 2 kilometres from the heart of the old town and the famous Venetian Harbour. The beach road has splendid views of the sea and the town plus great restaurants and bars. The upper street - Pahla Street - has supermarkets, the bus stops and many more amenities and services. Melitti Hotel is enjoying the advantages of being located in a quiet small street between the two roads, without the cons of their noise and business. The hotel offers elegant studios and apartments with private balcony or terrace facing the sea or the pool, free wifi, air-conditioning, equipped kitchenette, safety deposit box and bathroom. The hotel's pool has free umbrellas and deck-chairs where the guests can enjoy the sun with drinks and snacks from the hotel's bar.
We had an excellent stay at the hotel and received a very warm hospitality. The room was super clean, spacious and with a nice view at the pool. The hotel is very close to the city center and the old town and there are groceries stores nearby just in case you need anything. We will definitely stay again on our next visit to Rethymno. Highly recommended!

One word, (or name as it is) George! Five stars easy :) Helpful, funny, professional. Great reception, very helpful and the owner/director of this family run hotel in the center of the old town. A clean and calm Spacious room with a fridge, freezer, air conditioning and a private little patio poolside :) The breakfast is correct but could benefit from a small "glow up" that said you do get enough both proteins and carbs to get you started for a day of greek adventure :) Car rental is no problem, George takes care of it and hooks you up with a local rental company directly from the hotel reception. I got picked up at the hotel by the owner and then he drove to me to his office and my rental car. Same when I returned the car, I dropped it off and he drove me back to the hotell....and, drumroll.....for a cheaper price/day than the other car rental companies in town! Thank you George :) We really enjoyed the stay at Vecchio and would go back without hesitation!

This guesthouse is located in the heart of Old Town which is fabulous--the hot water is good and the beds are comfortable--but it is Niko (Nikos?) who makes this a really special place to stay. He goes out of his way to show you excellent recommendations and even does his best to personalize them upon just meeting you. Really lovely man. I definitely recommend this place if you want to make the best out of your time checking out Rethymno. Little warning is that being in Old Town it can get loud hearing people walk back from bars.

Location, location , location Best location overlooking de old harbor. Rooms not luxurious but very clean, friendly staff. Would stay here again for one or two nights, just for the location and the good price value. We had 2 rooms with each 3 people. Tip: if you want a authentic Greek breakfast for a cheap price, 2 minutes away by foot is Stella’s kitchen, Super!
