Ulasan Elounda Krini Hotel

Perfect getaway. The staff were super friendly and helpful. The pool was clean and there were plenty of loungers for all. A few minutes walk into Elounda the location was great Rooms had a mini fridge and the beds were comfortable. Would / will be back.

Superb views, great standards of cleanliness, rooms absolutely everything you'd expect or more for a hotel in this range. Ideally located both for Elounda itself and the peninsula where you have some wonderful wilder beaches. Didn't eat in the hotel much but had breakfast once and dinner once, both of which were excellent value. No hidden charges. This is our second time in Elounda and our first stay here but if we come back again, we won't look anywhere else.

The hotel staff were great the room really clean. Unfortunately we were in rooms near the reception area next to the cleaning supply cupboard. The cleaning ladies woke us every morning at 7am getting supplies out. The bed in one room was really good the other room they were rather hard and you could feel the springs. The Air conditioning was very noisy but works well. Had our rooms been located somewhere else I think it would have been better so we weren’t disturbed so much. The breakfast was what you expect for a 3 star and the dinner was good.

Not quite sure where to start with this hotel, but I will start by saying it is a 3 star hotel at a push. The rooms are very run down, the showers are lukewarm at best (we had 2 warm showers throughout our entire 7 day stay), and the daily 'clean' of the room was laughable. Whilst we got fresh towels every couple of days, our sheets were never changed, our bed was either not made at all, or made very roughly & the bathrooms or surfaces were never cleaned. We got given one free bottle of water each upon arrival, and was told any more water we would have to pay for. While you were allowed tap water at breakfast, you were not allowed tap water at your evening meal, which, considering they have it available, is a bit out of order. However, the rooms were not the worst thing about this hotel. The food was at best passable. I am a pescatarian and the options for my diet were extremely limited. When we made the hotel aware of my diet we were told that the menu is based on what the chef can get hold of, and despite being on the seafront, we only had fish on one evening (which was completely inedible as it was coated in salt). When we asked to see what the menu was, we were told there was no menu, and we would get what we were given. The vegetarian options were extremely limited, plain and incredibly salty, often consisting of beans in a tomato sauce, boiled rice with boiled vegetables, pizza, or penne pasta in a tomato sauce. Everything was so salty that I often just had the Greek salad (which was nice) and plain bread. There was one evening, however, in which they did stuffed tomatoes and Greek peppers which, while salty, was ok. My partner had the same opinion of the meat (I.e. it being incredibly salty), and that it was often overcooked, but there were more options for meat-eaters. Considering the proximity of the sea, it would've been nice to have more fish options rather than the same dishes repeated multiple times over the period of a week. In addition, the food was ALWAYS cold. Regardless of whether you arrived as soon as the food was put out, or whether it was breakfast or dinner, everything was cold. The breakfast was more edible, but the same options were available every single day, and again it was all cold, so it would've been nice to have more of a variety. In terms or service, it was a bit of a mixed bag: some staff were friendly, whilst others were very stand offish and generally quite rude. We certainly would not recommend this hotel and we definitely won't be returning.

Great people, great atmosphere, delicious food , quiet, very clean, very nice view from the balcony, sea and mountains ! Amazing experience, very close to the beach, very close to Elounda Center and Kolokita Beach. Stuff is very friendly, rooms are very clean.

Clean, quiet and comfortable. On outskirts of town but easy 10 minite walk to centre along restaurant strip. Seems to have been spruced up and looks nice and fresh and clean. Rooms are basic but perfectly adequate. Helpful staff. In house breakfast and dinner is limited but reasonable and good value if you want to avoid more expensive restaurants. Pool area was clean and quiet. Pool itself often had rather a lot of flies amd leaves in it although at other times was good for a cool down.

Just returned from a lovely stay at The Krini. Great location, just a 15 minute walk down to the harbour and restaurants/shops. Had an amazing view from my room, which was so peaceful with only the sound of the birds. Nice little pool area, plenty of sunbeds and not busy (May). Enjoyed a very tasty meal at the hotel - starter, main, dessert and a drink of your choice for 12 euro pp which was great value. A small and friendly hotel, great staff and great location. I want to wish Eleni (hope name spelt correctly) every success in her new venture. Such a lovely lady who deserves to succeed. I would definitely return - I didn't want to leave! Carol x

Maria really made the trip for us! She was super helpful and kind. She checked when we skipped breakfast if everything was ok, which it was, but appreciated the way she checked in. So friendly. After a dodgy start the rest of our stay was fantastic. We paid extra for a sea view balcony and after the first night's hiccup we had one and it was so nice. I read on some reviews that rooms weren't clean but ours was very. The hotel is a ten minute walk away from the main bustle and that was perfect for us. The hotel was quiet in the evenings, it was October so end of season but that suited us. We had an amazing relaxing week. With secial thanks to Maria!

We stayed in a family room with mountain view which got the sun on the balcony in the evening. It's basically two interconnecting rooms, with a door between the two bedrooms which suited us well as we have two small children. The hotel was clean and staff friendly, but the whole place is lacking personality and atmosphere. There is a bar but it is inside. We didn't eat here so can't comment on the food. About a 20 minute walk to the main restaurants and bars but there are more closer than that too. We spent one day at the pool and it was so quiet (no background music even) that we went and used the pool at a bar down the road which had much more going on.

Arrived late and no hot water for 2 days. Maria the fabulous receptionist/manager sorted it...the taps were the wrong way round so blue was hot and red cold! The bed was very comfortable as were the pillows. The bathroom small but functional but probably needs a bit of updating and a deep clean. The pool area was lovely, quiet and clean but the pool was freezing!! I'm not a breakfast person but seemed to be plenty for all. The staff were amazing and so helpful. I got bitten by mosquitoes so Maria gave me a plug in for my room. Maid came daily and if I left towels in the shower they were exchanged for clean ones. Nothing happening in the evenings so people tended to go out. There is a buffet type dinner available for 15€ however. Nice walk down to the port. I'd say a great place to base yourself and I really enjoyed my stay.

We're do I start at least the room was clean although very tired. We were sold the hotel as 4 star but it's not it's 3 star, the food was disgusting cold every evening. There was one member of staff on restaurant and bar know atmosphere att t all and the bar lady was exceptionally rude and unwelcoming. We spoke to several English quests who thought pretty much the same as us but when telling the manager she said she knew nothing about this. The pool area was very tired the sunbed's were tired and some ripped the pool did not look clean, would not be going back and would not recommend

A very tired hotel. We were in a family room which was bigger than a double room, which was good. Room could have done with being decorated. Some plastering had been done after some remedial works but not re painted, there was mould in a corner behind the dressing table. There were a couple of massive cracks in the walls of the balcony. Mismatched chairs in the room, no full length mirror. The towels could have been a bit bigger, but we're changed when we left them on the floor. Beds were made every day, but not always changed. The pool wasn't as clean as it should have been, sun beds poor quality and not so clean . Pool bar advertised as open daily was never open. The staff were pleasant and efficient but for breakfast, lunch, dinner and the bar only 1 person was on duty at all times.

From the off, the sink took 5-7 mins to empty after running the water, e.g. washing hands, cleaning teeth, rinsing tea cups. Two days on and the sink had not emptied overnight, so when I left the hotel at 9.30am I asked Reception if they could please get someone to sort it out. I got back just before 2pm and was told by Reception that it was done, although they would not say if something had been ****** up from the sink or poked down. Perhaps it is a recurrent problem. During my first shower, I wanted to adjust the height of the shower head holder via the slider as it was far too high for me. As I did so, the whole assembly came away from the wall; I thought this was quite dangerous as it could have hit me on the head or made me slip in the shower. From then on, I just laid the shower head across the shower taps instead of trying to slot it into the shower riser and causing it to fall forward. There was no door on the freezer compartment of the fridge. Also, the rack that holds the bottles at the bottom of the door kept coming off, so I could only use that rack for light items. There were only four clothes hangers in the wardrobe. There was a kettle and a tea tray under the mirror on the ‘dressing table’ area. However, where the tray was positioned, there was not a socket close enough to plug in the kettle. So I moved the tray to the end of the surface so that it would reach the nearest socket, only to realise that the end of the surface was unsupported underneath, making the surface slope down, quite dangerous with a kettle of boiling water on it! I did leave the tray at the end where it could reach the plug (where the blue bag is in the photo) as I did not want to be constantly moving a kettle of hot water, but I was very aware that the level of the surface was dropped and was also unsupported. The toilet seat/lid was a very thin plastic one. The lid would not stay upright unless I pushed against it with both hands at the bottom for a few seconds (yuk) otherwise it would just keep falling forward against my back (again, yuk). The toilet flush had to be pressed a second time after flushing to stop the water in the cistern from running, i.e. the water did not stop automatically when the toilet was flushed. The air con unit was reasonably quiet in the room and worked well. However, it was incredibly noisy out on the balcony when running, so that if I wanted to cool the room down for a short while whilst I sat on the balcony, it was impossible to do so due to the noise. There were a lot of tired and worn areas in the room, such as the bottom of the bathroom door, which looked like it had been chewed by a puppy. It needed a bit of a refresh, really. My room was on the first floor – there was no lift, but the stairs had a turn with a landing, which made it easier to get my suitcase up and down the stairs. However, my room seemed to be on a kind of service corridor: there was certainly a lot of activity up and down the corridor from quite

After 5 years here, we will never be back. We always loved this small charming hotel for its peacefulness, cleanliness and simple charm. Plus the wonderful staff. I don't know what's happened but it's gone to the dogs this year. All the regular staff have left. The room cleaning is a joke. Dirty cups left, shambolic bed making, bathrooms not cleaned. We asked for ice a couple of times in the bar...the woman turned to her friend lolling at a table, rolled her eyes and said "this sucks" in greek...I speak Greek! Last year the waiter would come to your sunbed with a menu and bring drinks. This year you had to go get them yourself...you'd get the glasses from the bar and they can't even be bothered to get the beers from the fridge for you. We've never experienced so much lethargy and rude eye rolling at a hotel ever. My other half walked back from the supermarket with a bottle of coke to put in the fridge and asked for ice on the way up. He was told in no uncertain terms that drinking this illicit coke with their ice was "PROHIBITED!" Bathrooms are not fit for purpose ...dirty, tiny, broken showers. Our grey bathmat was not changed once in 10 days. It's so sad because last year we had the most joyous time here with bubbly can-do staff...this year I felt like a naughty kid on a school camping trip caught with cigarettes! To add insult to injury my friend who came to wish us goodbye was rudely asked "what are you doing here?" The place was very empty and everyone there complained about the cold inedible breakfasts and bad service.
