    A really nice hotel, superbly located and with wonderful staff - made for a very relaxing holiday!
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveler
    • Double Room (1 Adult)
    • Stayed 7 nights

    Only one small negative, the shower - very small with just a curtain so water would go over the floor. I can see it's a space issue and I don't know if it's the same in all the rooms - it definitely wasn't a deal breaker and if I were ever to go back to Rethymnon I would stay here again!

    An absolute gem of a Hotel! Spot on location - 2 minutes from the beach, 3 minutes to a beautiful marina and maybe a 5-10 minute walk to the old town - depending on your speed of course. It was spotlessly clean and I'm quite picky. The staff were so lovely, friendly and helpful. Very simply decorated room but with everything you need - a mini fridge, hairdryer, even an iron and ironing board. If you forget your charger they have some you can borrow. There are mini safes but there is a charge for them - I didn't bother as I didn't feel the need. Breakfast was a standard continental Greek breakfast - fruit, meats, cheese, eggs and pastries etc. You can squeeze your own orange juice and the good thing is that they serve til 10.30 so you can have a lie in - you are on holiday after all. Great for solo travellers.

    House keepers were a little bit too loud in the morning. We get it that they have to clean the rooms daily but please don’t start it at 8-9 am when everyone is still sleeping

    The staff were super friendly, the hotel is close to the beach, there are a few restaurants around and some markets too. The room was clean and very spacious even for one person.

    Smokers on the terrace but it's Greece so it's hard to avoid. The rooms are small but they are priced very well, comfortable, clean, well air conditioned and quiet. It's a very high budget standard and for a holiday where you don't spend much time in your room it's ideal.

    Great breakfast, great location, excellent staff, very clean.

    Hotel and staff were great, I was a single traveller and whilst the room was ok for me, the shower was on the small size for me a biggish bloke (not fat). The visit to the Astali was pretty good , just the small niggle wrt the shower. Would recommend and go back there.

    Nothing all wonderful

    Fabulous modern hotel in the old town. In a perfect position and close to everything. The rooms are a great size, bed very comfortable, bathroom spacious. The room was quiet and hotel stipulates "quiet" times which is great, didn't have people coming back at all hours slamming doors( which has occured in 2 other hotels in the islands) If we returned to chania we would most definitely stay here again Thanks for a great stay

    The room was a little too small, even if I had a double room. Was not a big problem, but for two persons a larger room might be more suitable.

    Very nice hotel, walking distante from the beach, old town. Very friendly and helpful staff. Everything was very nice.

    The hotel is in an excellent location just a minute's walk to the beach with plenty of shops and restaurants close by. The rooms are cleaned with bed linen and towels changed daily. There is a good choice at breakfast which starts at 7.30 each day. The staff are very friendly and talk very good English.

    The bathroom was very small and uncomfortable. The room was small, too, with basic furniture. It was definitely not worth the price.

    The location of Astali Hotel is excellent, very close to the city center and the beach. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful throughout our stay. Highly recommended!

    We had a wonderful stay at Astali Hotel in Rethymno. The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating. We were able to leave our luggage at the hotel before check-in, go on a trip, and when we returned, our belongings were already waiting for us in the room. The staff was always helpful and attentive. The location is perfect – very close to the beach, the city center, and plenty of great restaurants. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Rethymno.

    It was a great experience and I could not identify any negatives

    Breakfast was buffet style served between 7.30-10.30. Had a large array of fruit, yoghurt, breads, pastries, eggs, meats, Greek breakfast ingredients. Endless coffee, tea, water and you could sit as long as you liked. Very relaxed, very lovely What a lovely find! The whole experience centres on 5* staff and the family who own the hotel. Perfect location, perfect price and a casual (which requires hard work) feel so that you can settle wherever you fancy. Just perfect!

    The best affordable hotel in Rethymno! Great location, wonderful staff, as we understood this is a lovely family business and they aproached our visit with love and dedication. Everyone was extremely friendly and welcoming! The breakfast was great with decent variety! Our room was cute and small, but really clean at all times, and bed was comfortable, it even has a speaker with a few stations! There is a free parking right down the street at the right side of the port. We really enjoyed the stay and we wholeheartedly recommend this hotel! We might return, too!
