Guest Reviews
- Jamie (6/5): - The property had a good location. The staff was really nice, pool was very nice, our room was not up to par a shower curtain would have been nice, morning breakfast below average, but not bad for older property
- Catherine (10/5): - Belle piscine et personnel accueillant parlant plusieurs langues.
- Catherine (10/5): - L’accueil chaleureux des employés. Une belle piscine.
- Natalie (6/5): - Friendly staff and nice small pool area, facilities were clean
- Jean Michel (8/5): - Une vue sur la mer décevante
Le repas du soir dans la demi pension était bon
- Matthew (8/5): - Nice place, clean and quiet
- Laurent (10/5): Hotel sympathique - Hotel en retrait de La Canée. Appart hotel plutôt.
Mais un personnel sympathique et de bons conseils.
Seul hic le parking sur le bord de la route mais cest la Crête :)
- Violetta (8/5): - Wir hatten die Zimmer 222,223 und 226. 222 und 223 waren Studios und relativ groß und geräumig. 226 war auch ein Studio aber viel kleiner. Das Bad war bei diesem Zimmer sehr klein und die Dusche nur ein Dreieck und ohne Vorhang. Die Ausstattung in den Zimmern war ausreichend aber der Kühlschrank war relativ laut nachts. Auch sind die Zimmer sehr hellhörig, was nicht jeder mochte. Man konnte ab und zu auch die Straße hören, was bisschen genervt hat. Bei unserem Zimmer 222 ging leider die Verriegelung der Balkontür nicht, was etwas störte. Auch hat die Putzfrau immer die Balkontür offen gelassen, was meiner Meinung nach nicht in Ordnung ist und so ist auch die Hitze auch immer ins Zimmer gekommen. Auch war die Klospülung sehr laut und hat lang gedauert bis der Tank wieder mit Wasser gefüllt war, weshalb lange laute Geräusche entstanden. Was mir gefehlt hat, war das jedes Zimmer gleich ausgestattet war. Beim Zimmer 223 hatte nämlich der Schlüssel für den Safe gefehlt. Und bei 222 war kein Hinweis ob man das Wasser aus der Leitung trinken darf und ob man das Klopapier runterspülen darf oder nicht. Aber im großen und ganzen waren die Zimmer in Ordnung für ein 2 Sterne Hotel. Der Pool war sehr gut und auch die Außenlange sehr schön. Die Familie der das Hotel gehört hat sich um jeden Wunsch gekümmert und war sehr hilfsbereit. Das Frühstück war auch sehr klein. Beim Abendessen gab es immer nur eine Vorspeise und Hauptspeise. Aber es gab auch durch nachfragen Alternativen.
- Garin (10/5): Super séjour - Super séjour passé dans cet hôtel. Les chambres sont tout a fait correcte et le personnel est vraiment très accueillant et très sympa
- Erik Anton (10/5): - Very nice and priceworthy hotel. The staff is very friendly and helpful!
- andrew (10/5): Akasti cool - Cleanly decorated clean good shower pressure great pool compy bed breakfast adiquate air con like ice 4 min from fab beach and shops and restaurants
- William (10/5): - 👍
- Aurélie (10/5): Chambre avec kitchenette - Nous avons séjourné 2 nuits dans cet hotel avec un enfant.
Tout s'est bien déroulé. La chambre est propre et suffisamment grande. La literie était confortable. La kitchenette est un réel plus pour les séjours un peu long. Elle est bien équipée.
Un lit parapluie est disponible gratuitement sur demande.
L'accueil a été chaleureux.
L'hotel est en bord de plage et en bord de route. Les nuisances sonores sont tout à fait correctes à l'intérieur de la chambre.
Le petit déjeuner est un peu inférieur à d'autres établissements en termes de qualité-prix mais reste tout à fait raisonnable.
En résumé il s'agit d'un bon rapport qualité-prix.
- paolo (4/5): - Non è tutto oro quello che luccica. Le foto della struttura sono fatte bene... ma arrivi e ci sono tanti punti neri. Dalla pulizia ai servizi offerti. Il wifi non va dappertutto se vuoi usufruirne devi stare fuori. Il buffet colazione: tristissimo e pessimo. Ho chiesto un caffè per macchiare il latte, mi hanno risposto che non lo fanno ci pensa il capo e il "capo" se nonché proprietario o gestore mi fice che c'è il caffe americano se lo voglio. Il vomito,acqua sporca,il succo acqua colorata . Non esistono fette biscottate, me le sono comprate e non esiste pan carré tostato . Solo pane, l'unico buono. Posate poco oulite, vassoi poco puliti ... non mi dilungo. La struttura è da rivedere un bel po' . La nostra vacanza è andata benissimo mah, in quel posto mai più.
- Valeri (10/5): - very good hotel in the aspect conditions-price.
there are beaches nearby on foot distance;
bus stop for public transport on 50 m (buses are until midnight every 15 minutes and it takes about 15 minutes to the center of the city for 1,5 euros only);
delicious affordable food in the hotel restaurant;
kindly and responsive staff;
cleanness - the towels and sheets are changed every day; the room is big enough
- José (10/5): Estadia muito agradável - Hotel com relação preço/qualidade boa. Regime de meia pensão com boa qualidade e quantidade. Muito agradável o restaurante com vista mar. Quarto espacoso. Wc com nececissade de algumas pequenas melhorias.
Funcionarios e Gerencia muito simpaticos e atenciosos. Foram 5 dias muito bons.
- Francesco (6/5): - Ottima posizione, colazione molto scarsa, personale molto gentile e camere da modernizzare
- Didier (8/5): Petit hotel familial et sympa. - Nous avons passés 5 nuits à l'hotel Akasti 2 étoiles correspont bien a l'ensemble des prestations,à notre disposition télé, frigo,seche cheveux, rangements. Repas du soir bons mais manquent de cuisine cretoise, literie . Personnel agréable. Et belle vue sur mer.
- Leonnora (10/5): - Spotless very well maintained the manager walked the property continuously the kitchenette was a huge plus
Will definitely be going back family & beach !
- Catherine (8/5): - We were there overnight, and it would probably make a good budget to stop for longer, as the pool area was nice, and the restaurant has a great view and very good food.
The actual room while large was fairly basic, particularly the ensuite with handheld shower and curtain, the room smelled a bit smokey, but the sheets were very soft and good quality.
Also we had expected on-site parking, it turned out to be roadside, though there was plenty and it seemed fairly safe.
The staff were very pleasant and helpful.
- Franc (8/5): Prijazno osebje, prijetna lokacija - Zelo prijazno in ustrežljivo osebje, dobra lokacija, hotelski bazen v sredini hotelskega kompleksa, sobe so potrebne obnove.
- Aleksandra (10/5): Great location, very nice place to stay - Great locations as just few mins to bus stop (bus no 21 goes directly to Chania). Within max 10mins walk you have few nice restaurants ( highly recommend Sunbaboo!!)
The hotel is clean, good swimming pool, new and clean aircon, rooms are cleaned every day. And very decent price.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Gute Lage, Bushaltestelle in der Nähe, Top Restaurant Salavantes direkt nebenan, nettes Personal, tägliche Reinigung
- E.xplorer (6/5): - A good price and wonderful location, but we had no Wifi or cell reception in our room. We also had poor drainage in the shower and a broken fridge, but the manager fixed both of those problems.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Bien mais... - Hôtel sympa, bien situé
Points négatifs : ils indiquent un parking lors de notre réservation sauf qu’en fait en arrivant on vous dit que vous pouvez vous garer dans la rue!Petit Bémol : rue avec beaucoup de restaurants donc pas toujours simple pour trouver une place.
Aucune info concernant le changement des serviettes, un matin serviettes posées au sol pour être changées, en rentrant ils avaient juste repris ces mêmes serviettes pour les faire sécher sur notre balcon!
- Aneta (10/5): - Es war ruhig und schön
- Helena (10/5): Well run family hotel - I liked the hotel and the friendly family that runs it. They took care if anything I asked for, clean towels, calling a taxi, getting me a hairdryer etc. They were kind and thoughtful.
- William (10/5): - Very friendly and zero stress from start to finish.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - The location gave a beautiful view, but fairly far from downtown Chania. The bed was alright and the bathroom was functional but the shower kind of leaked onto the floor. The biggest issue was the mold on the wall of my room near my bed, luckily it wasn't black mold so I wasn't overly concerned. I didn't say anything but probably should have, didn't notice until later though. Other than that the place seemed nice, it had a pool but I never used the amenities. Did find a great little restaurant within walking distance though!
- El Habanero (8/5): - Value for money!
- David (8/5): - Good
- Mile (10/5): - Very nice hotel right on the beach. We had a pleasant stay.
- Cat (6/5): - I liked the onsite swimming pool and restaurant, but was never able to find anyone at the restaurant to serve us.
The WiFi never worked in our rooms; had to sit on balcony to get decent access:p
- Maxence (8/5): Hôtel très accueillant et chaleureux ! - L' hotel est vraiment accueillant, parfait pour les vacances en couple , délicieux petits déjeuners à savourer vue sur mer.
L' équipe est adorable; la gérante prend soin de ses clients et parle très bien français.
Nous recommandons cet hôtel pour profiter pleinement de la côte ouest de la crête!
10 jours de vacances extra a Akasti !
- Sara (6/5): Inte så nöjd besökare, - Läget på hotellet är toppenbra, men mannen som jobbar i receptionen var inte rolig att ha att göra med. Och det är absolut sämre skick än vad bilderna visar och jag tycker inte det var speciellt rent heller.
- CEDRIC (10/5): Merveilleuses vacances à Akasti Hôtel - Très bon rapport qualité/prix pour ce petit hôtel familial. Très bien situé face à la mer et à 150 mètres d'une superbe plage avec transats et parasols gratuits. Quelques magasins, bars et restaurants à proximité mais le centre ville de Chania est très proche 4 kms et très facile d'accès avec un bus/15 minutes 3.40€ aller/retour. L' hôtel est vraiment comme sur les photos du site pas de surprise. Très bien entretenu, propre, belle chambre entretenue tous les jours par une dame souriante. Piscine petite mais agréable et bien tenue également. En ce qui concerne le bar/restaurant celui-ci se trouve à l'étage surplombant la mer avec une vue magnifique et un super coucher de soleil. Nous n'avions pas pris le petit déjeuner inclus mais nous pouvions prendre celui-ci entre 8h et 10h sans réservation sous forme de buffet pour le prix de 5 €. Assez simple mais diversifié. Pour le soir le restaurant de l'hôtel était très intéressant car nous pouvions y manger avec une carte très diversifiée et avec beaucoup de spécialités et à un prix avantageux souvlaki 6 € salade grecque 4,5 € ! En ce qui concerne l'accueil, il fut formidable, vraiment, Stella qui travaille à la réception parle le français, elle est vraiment très gentille et nous a vraiment bien conseillé pour les excursions à réaliser pour les horaires de bus etc.. Elle a pris tout son temps pour nous, son mari y travaille aussi et leur fille Eva au resto très sympa et souriante. Merci à tous pour ces vacances inoubliables !
- Lincée (6/5): Hôtel acceptable en accord avec ses tarifs - Par contre pas d'eau chaude, pas de micro onde, le personnel est pratiquement inexistant...
Par contre je trouve que le prix correspond exactement à la prestations!
Le restaurant est très bon, je précise le bar n'est jamais ouvert dans la journée.
Pas en centre ville donc plus agréable, mais véhicule obligatoire pour plus de mobilité.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Close to everything - We have stayed here before. We like that it is very close to everything and you can take the bus from the airport. They renovated the restaurant patio which is nice. They said that they will be doing some room reservations next year, hopefully they put in some ceiling fans and some shower curtains. Also a few fresh fruit for beakfast might be nice. We had a good time. And may go back again.
- Darren (10/5): Outstanding Value - In a beautiful beach side location just outside Chania with easy access on the 21 bus to the Venetian Port. The Hotel was simply lovely.
- kim (8/5): - Clean hotel super close to the beach. Great friendly staff. Morning buffet is daily 8am-10am for 6€ and is very delicious!! Not the widest selection, but definitely tasteful.
- Verified traveler (4/5): Mai più - L'hotel non è sul mare ma su una strada costiera di grande passaggio, meglio prendere una camera interna. Ci sono camere con vista mare ma prima del mare c'è ovviamente la strada e non c'è spiaggia ne altra possibilità di balneazione. La spiaggia è comunque a poche centinaia di metri, ben servita di localini con personale molto gentile. Al contrario in hotel si vede a malapena qualcuno alla reception la mattina. Suggeriamo di dare subito una mancia al personale delle camere perché potrebbero scordarsi di sistemare proprio la vostra. Non aspettatevi nemmeno un caffè prima dell'orario prestabilito per la colazione anche se il Bus per le gite parte presto. La cameriera del ristorante è completamente diversa dal resto dello staff: cordiale e solare.
- Timo (6/5): ihan ok meneisin uudestaan - ihan ok meneisin uudestaan
hyvää
- aurinkotuoleja riittävästi altaalla
- ystävällinen ja huomioon ottava omistaja perhe
- ilmastointi, turvaboxi ja netti kuuluin hintaan
- ravintolan ruoka ok ja krs 2 näkymät todella heinot suoraan merelle '
huonoa
- todella pieni wc / ph koko mesta kastuu kun käyt suikusssa
- osa parvekeista huono sijainti / näkymä
- pyyhkeitä ja lakanoita ei vaihdettu viikon aikana
ympäristö
kauppa, uimaranta ja muutamia ravintoloita noin. 5 min kävelyn matkan päässä
- Jon (2/5): skandal - hotellet ser absolut inte ut som på bilderna och efter femte dagen så sade vi till angående att lakanen eller handdukar inte bytts på rummen sen vi kom dit och personalen i receptionen sa att dom skulle byta dagen efter.
Dagen efter sa vårat sällskap till städaren som sa no no no.
då ringde vi till Hotels.com som inte hjälpte med någonting utom att ringa hotellet .
Då kom Hotel ägaren och skrek på oss och sa att vi fick byta lakanen själva eftersom att hans personal inte hade tid. Sista dagen så bad vi om kvitto och han blev väldigt irriterad. ALDRIG MER
- Morten (2/5): Fængsel - Vires værelse lignede et fængsel vi spurgt efter rene håndklæder efter 2 dage, personalet blev fornærmet og sagde det fik vi først efter 4 dage.... vi flyttede hotel!
- Tina (10/5): - Det var et hyggeligt lille hotel, med meget venligt personale, vi kommer helt sikkert igen.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Superbe vue sur la mer depuis notre terrasse, très proche des commodités, restaurants et de la ville de chania
- Damian (10/5): Nice hotel ! - Clean and nice hotel. Personel is very helpful and kind. Good food . Close to the sea.
- Emma (6/5): Bra hotell - Ett mycket fint hotell för att endast ha 2 stjärnor. Bra och lungt område och bra pool område.
- Stefano (8/5): La differenza la fa il personale... - Esperienza eccellente, buona pulizia e buon cibo. Il vero pregio di questo posto è il personale, mamma e figlia sono veramente squisite.
Peccato per la doccia, non bella, e la tenda che non schermata dal sole mattutino...
- Peter (10/5): Akasti hotel recommended - Small and very nice apartment hotel, clean rooms, clean pool and very nice family running the hotel.
- Rasmus (8/5): Flott uke på Akasti! - Jeg og madammen - vi er i tidlig tjueårene - tilbrakte ei uke på Akasti og er veldig fornøyde.
Rommet var enkelt innredet og av ujålete, grei standard. Aircondition kommer godt med om natten. Rommet ligger kun sekunder fra hotellets basseng. Akasti passer for par og familier, men bassenget passer nok ikke for familier med små unger som vil plaske litt. På det grunneste er bassenget 70-80 cm dypt. Passer godt hvis barnet er ei badeløve på 5 og eldre. Fint basseng. Fikk svømt noen runder selv. Området ved bassenget har solsenger, og dersom man ønsker kan man tilbringe tid i solsteiken her for å få seg litt farge kan man gjøre det.
Vertskapet var behjelpelige, jordnære og hyggelige. Vi fikk skrevet ut flybilletene til hjemturen før vi skulle til flyplassen, fikk ekstra "dyne" (tynt sengelaken) da vi fant ut at vi manglet et på kveldingen, og fikk låne vinåpner. Små ting, men det er kjekt når ting ordner seg og vertskapet er bra. Blir drevet av Mr. Tassos og de vi mistenker er kona og datteren. Vi tror at den søte unge damen heter Stella, hehe. Hyggelige folk.
Vi fikk også besøkt Akastis restaurant noen ganger - for det meste god mat!
Vil du bo på et jordnært, fint og billig hotell anbefales Akasti Hotell. Passer ikke dersom du er en overlegen snobb, hehe.
- Verified traveler (4/5): Hinta/laatu eivät kohdanneet. - Rauhallinen sijainti vaikka liikenteen melua hieman kuului. Allasalue pieni mutta hyvä. Aamupala oli suuri pettymys, joka päivä samat setit (vain yhtä leipää, ja leikkelettä eikä yhtään hedelmiä) joten ravintolassa ei muuten edes käyty. 5cm torakka oli yhtenä iltana vastassa kun avasimme huoneen oven. Suihku oli todella ahtaassa kulmassa. Voisin kyllä mennä uudelleen, mutta maksaisin yöstä korkeintaan 35€.
- Juha (6/5): Peruskuntoinen huone jäähdytyskoneella. - Olin yksin matkalla, joten minulle kelpasi tuommoinen perushuone. kyseisessä huoneessa oli kyllä aika pieni wc-kylpyhuone yhdistelmä. En tosin tiedä oliko kaikissa samanlainen "tuskin",kun siellä oli perheitä lasten kanssa.Henkilökunta oli ystävällistä ja auttavaista.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Corfu Greece - Nice place but a little out of the way. Owner was very nice free airport shuttle. Very helpful and happy.
- Dariusz (10/5): Great place and location wonderful customers servi - What makes a small hotel in Kalamaki the great hotel ?the staff and its great customer service. if you're looking for a hotel which is not far from aiport(bus 2.3€) has great conection by bus 21 (2€)from Chania good wifi and views over the sea from the top floor restaurant then this is it!We stayed there with the family of 5. The host is the most charming and attending person you can imagine. We will be back!
- Verified traveler (8/5): Perfect spot - This hotel is located in the area of Kalamaki a really cute little village. I was privileged enough to have a room that not only overlooked the pool but I could also enjoy a sea view. The room while basic was pretty good, the aircon worked well, there was a TV and fridge and it was cleaned every day. The bathroom was very basic but still functional it does take some getting used to using a shower without walls or curtain but I soon got used to it, a hairdryer might have been nice.
The staff are lovely and very helpful and the breakfast is pleasant, it's only a short walk to the beach or to the main shopping area where there are plenty of wonderful restaurant's to choose from, there are also travel agents that will assist with any excursions that you may require. If you're looking for a pleasant economical stop then don't pass this one by.
- Michael R (6/5): Perfect for 1 or 2 nights - When traveling through Crete, this hotel is perfectly fine for 1 or 2 nights. The family who manages this hotel was quite friendly and accomidating. There is a restaurant right on the premises, however, there are several restaurants right near the hotel as well. The beach is right across the street, but if you prefer a pool, there is one right on the property. Parking is off-street, and not on the premises. Shower is in the middle of the bathroom, and not in an enclosed space, so everything does get wet.
