Hotel Ideon

The best stay in Crete that we have had so far and we have been coming to Rethymnon for several years. The staff, food, hotel and wonderful service made us feel so welcome. Thanks again Hotel Ideon we hope to return soon

Excellent all round apart from the bedroom floor and balcony. This needed to be dusted more regularly. If we ventured that way again we would stay there again as it was close to the Old Town and restaurants.

Lovely hotel. Modern rooms. Pool area sheltered from wind. Good breakfast. Excellent location opposite the port in the old town. Great value for money.

+ Great location, very central to old town so easy to walk around the town, friendly and helpful staff, fabulous breakfast, clean facilities, some rooms updated, great pool with a decent amount of sunbeds, reasonably priced drinks and food at the pool and 30% discount on drinks during happy hour (5-6pm) woo hoo - our room (1 bed apartment) backed onto noisy alley (arguing drunks and motorbikes at night, workmen renovating building behind during day so sleep deprived most of stay) 1 bed units are older and non renovated so bathrooms are a negative. Apartments are advertised as pool view but all face the wall of the main building. Lower floor rooms are dark and a little dingy, they share a terrace with 3 other rooms which feels claustrophobic, also smokey sitting out as everyone and their dog smokes! The only one of the apartments with a view of the pool is room 608. This is a lovely apartment with pool facing windows on the side (the room you see on their website) book this one if you can or stick to a renovated room in the main building. Parking is a pain, free parking is up the hill and difficult to find, be patient and you will eventually get a spot just be prepared to wait, paid parking is opposite hotel (around 15 euro a day) Overall a great stay, we were there for a week and found it relaxing. We really enjoyed the pool area and Panos who serves drinks in this area is a great guy, funny, friendly and very helpful. We would stay again but in a sea view room next time

Great hotel at the end of a multi stay trip. The rooms are clean and quiet, the staff friendly and attentive. We found it good value, and the breakfast was excellent. We had a 4 night stay there and it was perfect for exploring the wider area but also being able to easily wander round the Old Town. Parking is conveniently nearby and free if you don’t mind being on the street

Very nice hotel. Breakfast could be improved, no choice of beverages, no natural orange juice, and poor choice of food and very few natural food items.

This is a great, modern hotel with an oceanfront view. More like a 5 star hotel. Excellent buffet breakfast and located in the old town. Close to restaurants and shops and beach. Best place to stay in Rethymno in my opinion.

Amazing hotel. Extremely clean, modern, comfy beds, great pool, HUGE breakfast! Would give it more stars if I could!

Excellent hotel in Fantastic location. Wonderful breakfast Super seaview smart room with balcony, would recommend to couples. Thanks for another amazing stay.

This hotel far exceeded our expectations. Rooms were beautiful and state of the art Smart technology. We had a view of the water and were steps to old town. Staff was nice, pool area beautiful and breakfast delicious. No complaints!

Great location in a quiet bit of town. Only a few minutes walk from the old harbour. Breakfast was excellent with great staff and choice of food.

Excellent location and staff

Lovely rooms great breakfast and friendly helpful staff in a breathtaking place.

Rooms were clean and quiet and well appointed. Included breakfast was wonderful and had lots of variety, both hot and cold options. The old fortress and old town shopping and restaurants are very closeby. Would definitely stay here again if we visit Crete in future.

Did not like that we were put in the old part of hotel. Lots of ants in our room.

Great location, very nice room and very welcoming and helpful staff

Good service nice food clean and modern.small pool/area

I loved this hotel, and would absolutely stay again. I loved having a balcony and being able to sleep with the doors to it open. Rethymno is a very safe place and the hotel is in an excellent location - everything is very walkable and the hotel makes a great base. The staff were lovely and friendly :)

Very nice hotel near everything and very walkable

Great location for exploring Rethymno. Plenty of good restaurants and bars within a 5 minute walk and easy to find. It would have been nice to have some more loungers around the pool as we tended to struggle to get one after breakfast.
