Have just come back from 10 days at this hotel. I am sorry but it is not a 5 star hotel. Service was at times very slow but friendly we booked a standard room with sea view. The room was little better than a motel room. Very small dated bathroom and only 3 English speaking TV channels (all news). Room... More

Have just returned from 2 weeks at this hotel. Although the hotel is classed as 5*, the rooms let it down and it should really be graded as 4*. However, the location, the food, the drink and most of all the staff make this a wonderful hotel. This was our annual girlie holiday and we had asked for a twin... More

My wife and I wanted a special holiday for our Pearl wedding anniversary (30 yrs.), so we paid a little more for the sea view and the extras. This hotel came through with the goods, fresh flowers, sweets and a bottle of bubbly greeted us on our arrival at the room. A la carte meals every night and a special... More

We have recently returned from 2 weeks in Rethymno, after getting married in Adele at agreco farm estate. We choose the Porto rethymno as our hotel as it was 5 star all inclusive. A number of our wedding guests choose to stay with us. The hotel was clean, the staff were very friendly and the food was delicious. Branded alcoholic... More

The Thomson brochure says 500mtrs from the town but it very much a city hotel with all the city sounds associated with the city including lots of... More

Just got back from a week in this hotel. The location is wonderful. Just a 10 minute stroll to the Old Town but the hotel is across the road from the beach which is wonderful. The location was the key for me, I wanted easy access to Rethymnon in the evening but a beach for the day time. I wasn't... More

The staff are great the location excellent. The food is goods and the drinks prices high but hey the supermarket is over the road and the fridge keeps the beer cold... But the rooms, come on really it is time to spend some money. I have stayed here twice so I clearly like it and I would love to stay... More

Our first visit to Crete and Rethmyno . We really enjoyed two-weeks in a great hotel and lovely resort. We’d booked a Standard Room with a “Garden View”. No garden view, as our fifth-floor room (512) overlooked the street at the back of the hotel. Directly opposite were private apartments with colourful balconies decked out with plants (maybe that was... More
