Overview
With a privileged central position in the beautiful city of Rethymnon, this hotel is situated 300 metres from the beach with the entire city accessible in minutes via public transport. Nearby are the old town, Fortezza Venetian Castle, Venetian Port and the archaeological museum, as well as the public garden, the Neranje Jami, the Krini Rimondi, and the Historic and Laographic Museum. Most rooms offer a magnificent view of the fortress, the harbour, the port and the centre of the town, or the beach. At night you can visit the Olympic Hotel Bar, where you can taste Cretan wines, accompanied by a collection of cheeses, or try some of our special drinks.

“good place to stay”
location is very good, about 300-400 meters away from the beach. room had a full sea view,not "side view" as said on the room description said,so that was a big plus. breakfast was very good, you had plenty to choose from, on the buffet. the bed and the pillows felt really comfortable to sleep with.

“not recommended, easy to find something cheaper and better to eat breakfast in town”
hotel was just OK, enough for one night, but I do not recommend it. It was clean, but everything had at least 20 years with no investments at all. Staff polite and helpful.

No character hotel..pretty much a big empty building with a very small gym and a breakfast room resembling school dinner hall.
