Good if you just need a place to sleep
We stayed here on our way from Heraklion to Chania, as we had arrived late by ferry. It wasn't bad for a quick sleep and breakfast, but not a place I would want to stay much longer than that. The Good - The breakfast was quite good. One of the few places we stayed at in Greece that provided large custom omelettes. The Bad - This hotel looks like it hasn't been updated since the 1970's (the 14" tube TV was a nice antique to have in the room) - We paid for a sea view room. While it is true that you can see the sea from the room, the hotel is quite a way from the sea, so there was little point in paying extra for the sea view. - There isn't much around the hotel, so you will need a vehicle.

Bonne situation, a quelques metres de la plage et de la rue principale ou se trouvent les restaurants, magasins de souvenirs, tabac, pharmacie, centre medical de proximite. Stationnement possible devant l hotel, une quinzaine de places disponibles...personnel tres attentionné. A 2h15 de la plage d elafonisi, 1h10 de la ville de la canée, 1h10 d heraklion...proche de la grande route donc facile d acces si vous avez une voiture de location.

Etablissement situé à 40m de l’autoroute. Impossible de se reposer avec le bruit incessant des voitures , camions, bus qui passent jour et nuit. Le confort est très simple, la sdb beaucoup trop petite. Une personne de plus de 100k ne doit pas tenir dans la douche. Point positif, le personnel est sympa.

Troppo vicino ad strada ad alto traffico
L'hotel ha appartamenti ben suddivisi ma dove la pulizia lascia molto a desiderare. La piscina è piccola e nel periodo frequentato (fine settembre) è poco soleggiata.. Il mare non è agevole da raggiungere a piedi e non c'è un posto attrezzato dell'hotel. Il problema più fastidioso è pero la vicinanza con la strada costiera ad alto flusso di traffico con un rumore fastidioso per quasi tutte le 24 ore. Nel complesso visto la numerosità di altri hotel in zona, non consiglio questo posto.

accueil top et placement ideal
Très bon hôtel avec un personnel au petit soin. Chambre de bon confort et tout inclus (wifi/climatisation..), placement idéal pour aller en ville et en excursions à l'ouest. Proximité de la route qui pourrait gêner certain même si on l'oublie vite. Piscine agréable et transat bienvenue. Hôtel à conseiller.

Vi blev mødt af et meget hjælpsomt personale og værelse var blevet opgraderet til stor lejlighed fordi vi var nygifte. Vi befandt os rigtig godt på stedet, som er stille og roligt. Tæt på en skøn strand og byliv med gode shopping-muligheder og restauranter.

Excellent :)
We spent 8 days in the Castello Bianco in July. The Hotel is an a very good placement, near to the central of Platanes, and the sea. Inside of the room is everything clean and comfortable. The Castello particularities is the pool. It is very beautiful, and we spent a lot of time, next to it for relaxing, sunbathing or swimming. The bar is fully equipped, and the staff is always very kind, cute, and helpful. We spent our one of the best holiday in Castello Bianco, thank you for everything!

Tolles Hotel mit großzügigen Zimmern in Strandnähe
- Die Lage ist optimal, da es nur leicht abgesetzt (2-3 Minuten Fußweg) zum Tourismus-Hotspot liegt und somit auch immer Autoparkplätze zur Verfügung stehen, man aber trotzdem schnell überall zu Fuß hingehen kann. - Zum Strand sind es 5-7 Gehminnuten, also absolut TOP! - Man bekommt auch Strandtücher und muss somit nicht Eigene mitbringen. - Der Pool ist groß, sauber und direkt an der Cocktailbar. - Das Hotelteam besteht nur aus Einheimischen (die perfekt englisch sprechen), ist freundlich und gibt gerne auch Tipps. - Die Zimmer sind großzügig, komplett modernisiert und sauber.

Comodo e spazioso.
Struttura molto carina e prezzo (almeno per inizio giugno quando siamo andati) ottimo. Consigliabile affittare una macchina visto che l'hotel è situato ad alcuni km da Rethimno e che la provincia offre diverse belle località da visitare nel raggio di una 60ina di km. La piscina è molto bella e il personale gentilissimo. Il bagno si allaga forse troppo facilmente dopo la doccia ma nel complesso è un difetto veniale.
