I fell in love with the old town, it is so picturesque, the hotel fortezza is right in the heart of it all. The rooms are a little small and the beds a little hard for the price, but everything was very clean and newly updated, which I appreciated. There was a weird sewer smell coming from the drain in...

We were 4 ladies staying at the Fortezza hotel from 10th through 17 September this year. This was our first time at this hotel. We enjoyed the hotel from the start. The rooms were nice with ok size, a bit too hard beds, however we got used to it. The bathrooms were updated, very nice and functional. The service was... More

Between the old town and the Venetian fortress, this is a wonderful location for exploring Rethymnon. The hotel, which has its own car park, is recently refurbished and comfortable, and the staff helpful and friendly. Rooms are quiet and have air conditioning. The pool is a bonus. There are dozens of good restaurants within a five minute walk. Only let... More

In the heart of the old city. a couple of blocks from the waterfront, yet with its own chained-off parking area just up the block, this hotel is full of pleasant surprises. When we first entered our room, it seemed datk and blah -- that is, until we opened the shutters to our balcony overlooking a lovely pool, which is... More

A parking spot in the old town - now this is worth getting the room for if you have a car. the hotel does not really have any local character, but if you have a car then this is the place for you. The rooms are dark as everyone keeps saying, but its becuase of the choice of dark marble... More

The service at Fortezza Hotel was very good. The staff tried to make our stay as comfortable as possible at any time. They even transported our luggage from the main road to the hotel. The room was average. A bit dark, but clean and nice. Once we got the aircondition on it became the perfect hideaway from the warm weather... More

My friend and I stayed here for a week in July 2007 during a heat wave. The reason the heat wave became a problem was the 20 minute walk to the beach. I do not reccomend this hotel in the middle of summer if you like a short walk to the beach. The hotel itself was ok. The people at... More
