La gentillesse du personnel. Un grand merci à la Team Réservation pour sa rapidité de réponse et son aide. L’équipe de ménage: nous avions une dame très sympathique!

S’il faut trouver un point négatif, je dirai que les restaurants ne sont pas une solution très adaptées pour les enfants de bas âge (bien que le personnel soit au soins), un système buffet par ex serait plus adapté sur un site.

"Enjoyed our stay but expected it to be of a much higher standard given rating and leading hotel membership"

8.0

The Location was excellent an easy walk onto the town . We were upgraded and the room was great . Staff were lovely .

It was aged , it needs an upgrade in the main Hotel area . Stuck in the 80’s . We got half board . It was buffet am and pm . Breakfast was better than dinner . The food wasn’t good for a ‘leading hotel in the world ‘. Misleading to say also it was 5 star . It ticked the rating boxes to qualify. But the property and food do not warrant it or the leading hotels in the world membership.

Le cadre La nourriture est excellente Les chambres sont magnifiques L'accueil

L'attente pour avoir une boisson le matin ainsi qu'au dîner. Plus de 40 min pour que l'on nous demande ce que l'on souhaite boire, ou alors il faut clairement se lever pour demander que l'on s'occupe de notre table alors que toutes les autres autour sont servies même en étant arrivées après.

L'emplacement central entre Elounda et Agios Nikolaos. À 1h de l'aéroport de Heraklion. La plage privée de l'hôtel et une eau cristalline +++. Le petit déjeuner copieux, bon et hyper varié. Le personnel d'une gentillesse incroyable et serviable. Horaire d'avion tard pour le retour donc possibilité, sans frais, d'avoir une chambre pendant 2h pour se changer et se laver. Le confort du lit. Le calme. On a été surclassé gratuitement dans une grande chambre avec 2 salles de bain, c'était top.

L'hôtel est dans son jus, il est propre mais équipement vieillot! Probablement vieux d'une vingtaine d'années. Aucune modernité que ce soit dans les chambres et le restaurant. L'environnement du buffet est moche et froid (aucun cadre, couleur blanc froid). En tout cas, pas à notre goût du tout. La redondance de la nourriture au buffet, sur 4 jours, 1 jour c'est un peu démarqué avec les côtes d'agneau. Par contre, on a dû attendre 20min car il n'y avait plus de table disponible. Les extras sont hors de prix (honteux d'ailleurs), une bouteille d'eau à 5€, les coca à 5,50€, les glaces au pool bar à 5,5€ pour un calypo ou un cornetto. L'eau devrait être à disposition et gratuite. On allait au supermarché acheter une bouteille (1L à 0,5€). Le prix du spa, quasiment rien en dessous de 170€ pour les massages. On a reçu un bon de 50€ de cadeau pour le spa. Je considère cet hôtel plus comme un bon 4* que 5* palace. Rapport qualité prix bof bof. Pour les restaurants sur place, on en a testé que un. Excellent mais un peu cher pour ce que c'était. Allez manger un bon gyros en ville pour 12€! Vous ne serez pas déçu.

"We loved the facility, and the sea was absolutely perfect, crystal clear. In fact, our main reason for choosing this hot"

9.0

The sea was perfect! The beach and beach bar were great, and the staff was very polite. Both the breakfast and dinner buffets had everything we expected. The room was comfortable and had everything we needed. When we first arrived, we were pleasantly surprised with a complimentary bottle of wine, which was a lovely gesture. There were instant coffees available, but we requested an espresso machine, and it was brought to us immediately.

The hotel’s restaurants were a bit pricey compared to the local options outside, and it felt inconvenient to have to pay extra for even soft drinks at dinner.
