Clean and pleasant boutique hotel on the seafront, with a really helpful and friendly staff. Parking is limited but easily managed with a little help from hotel reception. The restaurants around the hotel are fun and good value, or a walk up to the harbour area and old town offers lots more great options.

The property was beyond welcoming especially as we arrived later than we anticipated. They were able to have dinner ready for us and continued to do so throughout our stay. I would highly recommend getting the dinners included with your room. It was the perfect way to experience a variety of Mediterranean cuisine! George and the rest of the restaurant staff were so attentive and friendly! George even gave us a list of words to say in Greek which we used through the week! The room was also amazing. It was clean, extremely spacious, and had a view of the beach. The location couldn’t have been better. We were a simple walk to town and a short cab ride away from the bus station!

Swell Boutique hotel in Rethymnon is fantastic!
The Swell Boutique hotel was fantastic! All the front desk and meal staff were so helpful and always addressed all our needs. Lina at the front desk was amazing- she was incredible! She spent so much time helping us to plan our days and our touring, looking up details regarding distances and directions, calling museums and restaurants, and checking in with us regularly about follow-up. She went above and beyond, always with a smile!! We were so impressed! The hotel was in a perfect location and we walked everywhere in the town and had easy access to the highway for driving and sightseeing.

Très bien … sauf la plage
Chambre propre avec tout le confort, grande douche, matelas confortable. Petit déjeuner en buffet, très fourni, avec jus orange pressé, il y a des spécialités grecs. Il y a même un petit déjeuner à emporter si on doit partir avant 8h qui est très complet. Le restaurant de l’hôtel est très bon, j’y ai mangé un soir, à un tarif raisonnable. Le parking est petit, seulement 4 places de parking devant. Toutes les places autour de l’hôtel sont gratuites, mais cela doit être compliqué en pleine saison. Précision, personne ne parle français. L’hôtel est très bien situé à environ 10 ou 15 min à pieds du centre ville. Et pleins de commerces à côté de l’hôtel. Le seul « problème » c’est la plage, l’hôtel fourmi des serviettes pour la plage, après il y a une plage parasol et transat du nereas ( nom du restaurant de l’hôtel) donc on a l’impression qu’on y a droit gratuitement, mais en faite non, c’est payant, 8€ pr le parasol et 2 transats, je vous conseils d’aller plus loin car certains c’est 5€ ou gratuit si vous prenez une conso. Dommage que ça ne soit inclus dans l’hôtel… c’est le seul point noir de l’hôtel.

Knallbra hotel med gangavstand til gamle byen.
Bare å ta av seg hatten for service her :-) Knallbra sted. Vi var heldige med rommet som hadde sjøutsikt, og to toaletter. Dette var kjempe bra. Og veldig kort vei til stranden. Litt traffikert vei, men ble oppveiet at man hadde 10 meter til strand. Samt at de hadde "deal" ang. solstoler og parasoll til en hyggelig penge. Nydelig buffet frokost så lurt å ta med denne i prisen enn å lete etter steder for å ha frokost. Perfekt avstand til masse barer og restauranter, og litt stillere (selv om den ligger langs hovedveien) enn inn mot sentrum, og langs kaien. Tipp topp, og vi kommer igjen hit.
Utsikt fra hotellrommet. Nydelig på kvelden... og morgenen.
