Hotel in the mountains

Mountainous and secluded location with a large swimming pool and some lawn area with fruit trees etc. clean and renovated rooms. Good breakfast. Only small minus comes from the bees around the pool area probably due to those fruit trees...

We stayed in a standard room in the main building and it was so lovely! The breakfast was awesome and the walk down to the village was convenient. This hotel has a lovely restaurant attached with great food. Zaros Lake is just around the corner. My favorite part was the spring water running down the side of the road. A very lovely village to visit on your trip around Crete.

Perfect hotel, just renovated, rooms comfortable, modern and clean. Hotel grounds with lots of greenery, sunbeds, hammocks and a beautiful swimming pool. Quiet location, cozy bar and an excellent restaurant. Very friendly staff, always helpful. Excellent price / quality ratio. The area is not very touristy, but there are special excavations, beautiful walks and the south coast can also be reached by rental car.

Correct mais sans plus

L’hôtel en lui même est assez basique, sauf la piscine et le jardin qui sont très bien et très agréable. La literie est aussi de bonne qualité. En revanche, les chambres sont très mâles insonorisées et bruyantes, on a du changé de chambre car celle qui nous avait été donné de base n’était pas très propre. Le petit déjeuner est un buffet simple mais très correcte et de bonne qualité.

Vi ankom meget sent, og havde ikke fået mad. Det blev klaret nemt, da stedet har en stor taverne men rigtig lækker mad, og super betjening. Værelset var pænt og rent. Lækre senge at sove i. God aircon og smuk udsigt over bjerge eller flot have. Vi brugte ikke poolen da vi bare havde en overnatning og skulle så videre.

Idi Hotel boven alle verwachtingen

Perfect hotel, net gerenoveerd, kamers comfortabel, modern en schoon. Hotelterrein met veel groen, ligbedden, hangmatten en een prachtig zwembad. Rustige ligging, gezellige bar en een uitstekend restaurant. Zeer vriendelijk personeel, altijd behulpzaam. Uitstekende prijs/kwaliteit verhouding. Het gebied is niet erg toeristisch, maar er zijn bijzondere opgravingen, prachtige wandelingen en de zuidkust is ook met een huurauto te bereiken.

Hôtel et restaurant très bon rapport qualité prix

Génial, Nous avons eu une chambre toute neuve vue sur la montagne. Cet hôtel est vraiment très bien, on se sent bien et surtout une végétation luxuriante, des conseils à l'accueil, du calme, de la verdure en pleine montagne, une piscine impeccable, leur restaurant !! Génial tellement c'est bon, on y mange tous les soirs, et les serveurs d'une gentillesse, ils veulent TOUS vous faire plaisir dans cet endroit. Vraiment je regrette de ne pas vivre en Crête :-). Le chant des cigales, la montagne, la verdure, les sources, le resto dans un cadre patrimoine de l' UNESCO... trop bien, puis même les plages sont à 30 minutes, du coup, Mer et Montagne pour un prix très raisonnable.

Conforme à nos attentes. Propre, calme, le jardin est très agréable, bon petit déjeuner. Diner à la taverna située en face de l'hôtel. Attention pour venir en utilisant un GPS : l'adresse depuis l'appli Expedia vous fait prendre un chemin pas vraiment pratiquable sans 4x4. Mieux vaut viser la taverna en face de l'hôtel.
