“Excellent location, will definitely comeback”
We had a fantastic stay in Rethymno and the host, Giannis and his family, were incredibly welcoming. Their home was conveniently located right in the heart of the city.

“EXCEPTIONAL. We wish we had booked for more than two nights only.”
Polyxenia Suites is in the "beating heart" of Rethymno's historic Old Town, surrounded by a charming network of narrow streets, local boutique shops, traditional tavernas, and lively bars just steps from the front door of this amazing property, which our very gracious, helpful, and wonderful host Giannis grew up in. Polyxenia Suites is immaculately clean, and obviously well-maintained. Our bed was quite comfortable. Giannis took our bags to our room on the second floor, which was a great help, and most appreciated (despite being both fit and strong for my age - 67 - it's not as easy getting my wife's and my luggage up multiple flights of stairs as it was a couple years ago - thank you Giannis!). For what we paid (having booked months in advance) Polyxenia Suites delivered exceptional value for money. If my wife and I are fortunate to ever return to Rethymno we will absolutely 100% stay again at Polyxenia Suites...we can't say enough good things about our experience.

“Just perfect!”
Polyxenia Suits are located in the heart of the old town, everything you think of is nearby. You can step out and have a hot coffee with pastries or ice cream or gyros just underneath of the suits before exploring the neighborhood . We contacted Giannis in advance with request whether we can leave our luggage in the premises before checking-in. It just happen our flight landed earlier and taxi brought us to the suits 1.5 hours before agreed time. Simply dialled Giannis phone number and were let in. We checked-in early into sparlking suit and were offered pastries baked by Giannis mother. There were tea, coffee, water and even a bottle of rakia as a warm welcome from the host. Next day our room was cleaned and a fresh homebaked coconut cake was meeting us with its aroma :-). Giannis was very kind and offered us to stay after check out time as our flight was late in the evening. Huge thank you, Giannis! we hope to be back :-)

“A very pleasant place to stay to absorb the delightful atmosphere of Rethymno.”
A fantastic Location. On the top floor overlooking the old town. A wrap around deck meant that you had a great view of the colorful lanes below and could take in the atmosphere whilst being very private.

“Beautiful location, comfortable, clean and extremely friendly and helpful hosts.”
An amazing welcome and very understanding about our delayed arrival. Everyone was so helpful, cheerful and friendly. The room was very clean and great care was taken into making our stay relaxed and pleasant. Location was right in the middle of the Old Town which had many lovely advantages. The views were also lovely, giving us many aspects of the immediate area and especially sitting on the balcony when the sun set over the distant mountains.
