Archontiko Old Town Suites

Last minute booking we were lucky to get. Warmly welcomed by the owner and shown to our room. We dropped off our cases then went to explore Rethymno. Beautiful hotel in an old Venetian building. The roof top was amazing with 360 views and a bar. Had a lovely night's sleep and the shower was amazing. Complimentary water and raki was a nice touch. Wholeheartedly recommend this quirky, beautiful hotel and the very kind owner. Thanks

I’ve never written a review in which I talk about how helpful the owners are— I’ve usually made all the plans and have everything organized. But in this case there’s a lot to know about Crete and the owners really helpful! Such a beautiful hotel - only four rooms in the heart of the historic district. The owner Alonya and her husband Kostas are incredible. They sent detailed and perfect parking instructions long in advance. Kostas gave us detailed and helpful ideas for our outings. He sent us more travel ideas on WhatsApp - even after we left- like a small beautiful beach not in our guidebook - a suggestion that saved the day later in the trip. They also run a cafe on site so you can get cappuccinos or Aperol spritzes (or the delicious and huge breakfast) and sit on the rooftop terrace. There are only four rooms, all of which have their own baths (small- it’s the historic district). We had 3 of the 4 rooms and all were lovely and quite similar, although top level ones have view and are quieter. Safes in rooms. They have a great plan with bottled water where they give you filtered water in glass bottles - so much more eco friendly than plastic. This type of attention to details exemplifies the owners’ thoughtfulness and attention to comfort at this beautiful romantic hotel. 10/10 recommend.

Very nice hotel in the very center of the Old Town. Beautiful rooms, all the necessary facilities for a comfortable stay. I advise everyone who wants to really have a good rest and relax in a very beautiful place.The hosts are very friendly. Thank you!
