Guest Reviews

• Aikaterina (8/5): - We asked for a quiet room and even though the hotel didn't reply, we were put in very quiet room. The only thing I would change would be to have a mattress protector under the sheet and a bigger top sheet and blanket as it was a bit small. The room was immaculate.
• Andre (8/5): - Hôtel pas tout jeune, mais bien gérer par le propriétaire qui l’améliore chaque année en changeant climatiseur, lit…etc. Très bon séjour pour nous dans cet hôtel et cette région de la crête que nous avons adoré. Je recommande.
• Catherine (8/5): - Hotel Esperides is a lovely quiet hotel on the main road just across from the road into Myrtos, a quiet tourist town on the southern coast of Crete. Wonderful breakfast for 9 euros per person, with large assortment of foods. Small elevator available. Very accommodating when we arrived early from the ferry to Heraklion, Crete; we were able to purchase breakfast even before check in, and they got 2 rooms ready for us an hour or so before their usual check in time. Also arranged taxi back to Heraklion for us for the day we left. Easy walk into Myrtos and to the beach. Free parking for those who had cars. Mostly European tourists; lots of families. Would definitely stay there again.
• Patricia (8/5): - Beds & pillows were comfy. Hotel was quiet. Check in desk stayed open until midnight when I arrived and was very kind on the phone and in person... even at midnight! Upper front rooms have balcony and slight view of ocean. Toilet was leaking, hotel is a little old, but the property is kept up very nicely. Five-minute walk to village & beach. Amazing hotel for the price of $44! Didn't use shower or pool and didn't eat breakfast--only stayed one night. Hotel is a 1-1/2 hour drive from HER airport on a steep winding road.
• Eve (8/5): Nice hotel, in a great location! - Good stay in a great location - only minutes to the many tavernas. Clean hotel, family run and would stay again 😊
• Martina (6/5): - Bis auf die Servicekraft für die Zimmerreinigung unfreundliche Mitarbeiter. Anonymität wird hier groß geschrieben. Das Hotel müsste renoviert werden. Zum Schlafen und frühstücken reicht es. Ansonsten hat ein Aufenthalt in dieser Unterkunft nichts mit einem Hotelurlaub gemein.
• Phil (10/5): - Very nice place! Excellent value. Some wear around the edges, but well cared for and great service. Room was very comfortable and clean. Pool and public areas were good. Breakfast bar was delicious with many options. Close walk to beach and main town area, but far enough away to avoid the crowd if you wanted. Great value for the price!
• Sylvie (8/5): Bon rapport qualité prix. Bon emplacement - Equipe de l hotel tres professionnelle. Tres propre. Literie tres confortable. Hotel un peu veillot mais tout fonctionne. Chambre a l arrière tres calme. Merci a toute l équipe
• Janet (6/5): - Room serviceable but deco very dated. Had room at back with good view of beautiful countryside. Good location walking distance to centre of Mirtos.
• Ingvar (6/5): Budgethotell - Budgetboende. Poolen okey. Duschen liten med ett mögligt draperi och trasigt duschfäste och en trasig duschdraperistång. Verkar inte bry sig. Dålig fjärrkontroll till AC. Okey personal. Inget utöver det vanliga för en gäst. Vill man bo billigt och väldigt enkelt är det okey med detta hotell. Ok frukost.
• Benoit (6/5): - L’hôtel est bien entretenu, plutôt bien conçu mais date des années 1970 donc a vieilli en terme d’aménagement des chambres. Pour le reste, accueil charmant, entretien et petit-déjeuner impeccables et plutôt bien.
• Sylvie (8/5): Bien pour quelque jours. - Accueil tres sympathique de l équipe. Tres bon restaurant si besoin. Chambre un peu vieillote mais tres propre
• Louis (10/5): - Great location, close to the Med. and the village, very friendly staff, and the Pantelakis family will go to the extreme to make your stay a wonderful experience.
• Razek (10/5): - Ce qui m a plu c est que le réceptionniste parle français et la plage a 2 min a pied
• Laurence (8/5): Très bien ! - Hôtel situé à 100 m de la plage, accueil très sympa, propreté parfaite, piscine agréable,. Petit déjeuner 6 euros. Chambre spacieuse très propre. Clim ds la chambre.
• Serge (10/5): Séjour très agréable - Accueil chaleureux, les propriétaires parlent Français et sont très sympathiques. La piscine est très agréable. Le petit déjeuner servi sur la terrasse ombragée est copieux et excellent.
• Christian (10/5): Très bon rapport qualité prix. - L'hôtel aurait besoin d'un rafraîchissement, pour notre chambre, la salle de bain en particulier. Nous y avons passé une nuit seulement. La climatisation était parfaite. Le personnel aussi.
• arrigo (2/5): Lo sconsiglio - Letto terribile, struttura vecchia, bagno senza areazione, wifi poco funzionante
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Op loopafstand van het pittoreske gezellige dorpje Mirtos kamer 314 was gedateerd maar erg schoon er werd alle dagen schoongemaakt zelfs op zondag! Zeer uitgebreid ontbijt!
• Herve (6/5): Hôtel vraiment que pour "dormir" - Endroit agréable hôtel juste bon pour dormir ( bruyant, tv année 80, 3 chaîne en grec) lieu alentour très beau
• CHRISTOS (10/5): Άριστο - Εξαιρετική φιλοξενία, επαγγελματισμός, πολύ καθαρό ξενοδοχείο και ανέσεις. Πλούσιο πρωϊνό, άριστοι χώροι εξυπηρέτησης, ησυχία. Εξαιρετικό κλίμα και πολλά ενδιαφέροντα στην περιοχή.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Las instalaciones necesitan una renovación, pero todo el personal fue muy amable. Está bien situado si lo que se quiere es calma, con la playa muy cerca, pero se necesita coche ya que está a unos 15 kilómetros de Ierapetra.
• Verified traveler (8/5): Bien - Bon dans l'ensemble pour le prix Accueil très très chaleureuse toujours à l'écoute et à notre service
• Verified traveler (8/5): mirtos, crete - This is a small village on the sea with friendly people and not so crowded with tourists as some other places on the island. There are Minoan ruins and good hiking trails nearby.
• Stefan (4/5): - Hotel ist stark renovierungsbedürftig.
• Val (8/5): - Very friendly staff and relaxed atmosphere. Great breakfast and was very impressed that the cook said she would have catered more for vegans had she known that we required that. Only drawback is that rooms with seaview are opposite the local rubbish and recycling collection which happens about 7.30 every morning.
• Jose (8/5): - Buena ubicación. Buena relación calidad.precio. Excelente desayuno.
• SPYRIDON (8/5): Ήσυχο δωμάτιο και υπέροχη τοποθεσία - Ήσυχο μέρος, ιδανικό για οικογένειες με παιδιά, άνετο πάρκινγκ, εύκολη πρόσβαση στο χωριό, χρειάζεται σχετική ανακαίνιση το ξενοδοχείο αλλά για τη χαμηλή τιμή που βρήκαμε το δωμάτιο μείναμε ευχαριστημένοι
• karim (10/5): Super - Très bon accueil par les gérants de l'hôtel. La chambre et les parties communes étaient propre. Très bien placé à quelque pas de la mer et des commerces.
• Μανωλης (8/5): Value for money 100% - To ξενοδοχείο ήταν κοντά σε όλα αλλά και σε ήσυχο μέρος !!το μόνο μείον λιγο η ηχομόνωση γιατί ακούγονται τα πάντα από τους τοίχους!!το προσωπικό εξυπηρετικοτατο και πρόθυμο να σε βοηθήσουν σε ότι πρόβλημα κι αν αντιμετωπίζες! Η καθαριότητα επίσης άψογη!!γενικά είναι μια πολύ καλή επιλογή ειδικά για τις τιμές του!!
• Verified traveler (8/5): camera pulita e confortevole - camera pulita e confortevole, era presente il frigorifero in camera, il balcone a mio avviso un po' piccolo
• Veronique (6/5): For the money good hotel to stay - The hotel is near the beach and restaurants. The hotel have a Nice swimming pool. The receptionist was very friendly.
• Verified traveler (8/5): andate - Due stelle oneste , mare a 5 minuti a piedi , colazione abbondante a pagamento , lerapetra molto carina a 10 minuti di macchina
• Giuseppe Marco (8/5): Da provare - Ottima posizione, personale gentile!
• Marie-Cecile (10/5): Bonne escale pour Mirtos et les environs - Hôtel très agréable ,personnel très accueillant ,décoration soignée.Le village de Mirtos est à moins de 5mn à pied .grand parking.
• sheila (6/5): - Lovely place and this hotel is good for the price. It is a little jaded and time worn.
• Anita (6/5): Sehr gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis - Das Hotel ist sehr einfach und die Einrichtung veraltet. Mit wenig Aufwand könnte man die Zimmer aufwerten wie z.B. ein neuer Duschvorhang oder ein neuer Toilettendeckel. Das sehr freundliche und zuvorkommende Personal (Familienbetrieb), die Sauberkeit und der günstige Zimmerpreis machten es für uns jedoch wieder wett. Da wir immer in den verschiedenen Tavernen direkt am Strand gegessen haben, können wir zum Hotelessen keine Bewertung abgeben. Die Lage des Hotels ist perfekt, in wenigen Gehminuten ist man mitten im wunderschönen Dörfchen, bei den Tavernen und am Strand. Ein anderes Mal würden wir ein Zimmer auf der Rückseite des Hotels buchen, da es auf der Strassenseite am Morgen etwas laut zugehen kann, vor allem dann, wenn alle 2-3 Tage die Müllcontainer auf der gegenüberliegenden Strassenseite geleert werden. Myrtos ist der Hammer! Auch bei vollen Hotels und Appartements sind die Tavernen und der Strand nicht überlaufen. Es herrscht eine gemütliche Betriebsamkeit in noch ursprünglich kretischem Ambiente. Uns hat der Aufenthalt in Myrtos und im Hotel Esperides sehr gut gefallen, wir kommen wieder!
• Verified traveler (6/5): - Detr ett gammalt hotell, men välstädat o ligger smidigt till. Det är som att komma in i sent 80tal, duschen fungerar sådär o wifi kommer o hår. Men på det stora hela har du allt du behöver för några fina dagar
• Marjo H (8/5): Fijn hotel vlakbij centrum en strand - Het hotel is enigszins gedateerd, maar wel sfeervol en alles wat je nodig hebt is er. De kamer met twee eenpersoonsbed was volgepropt met tafeltjes en kastjes. Klein balkon met uitzicht op de bergen. Goede airco en koelkastje. Een goed bed en een fijne douche. Het strand en de restaurantjes waren binnen 5 a 8 minuten bereikbaar. Het ontbijt was iedere dag een verrassing. Echt goed!
• Verified traveler (6/5): - The family at the hotel was really nice and serviceminded. The pool area was okay, but the hotel could really use an upgrade. Really old and dark rooms and not very clean.
• pizette Sylvie (8/5): - très bien personnel très sympathique petit déjeuner copieux belle piscine petit bémol sdb un peu vétuste
• K (10/5): Ken &deb - Fantastic value for money loverly people and so clean
• Philip (4/5): Sound matters - Mirtos is probably my favourite village in Crete providing a fantastic balance of beach, tavernas/nightlife, scenery and walking. The fact that Esperides is in this village makes it an attractive and good value choice with friendly staff, great location, swimming pool etc.. However, the sound levels experienced in the rooms severely detract from it's location advantage. The walls and doors/windows are very poorly soudproofed. Noise from barking dogs, traffic, inconsiderate guests and internal machinery/services penetrate the room 24hrs a day making it very difficult to sleep at all. Would not recommend this hotel unless you are an insomniac or deaf.
• Pantelis (10/5): Lovely relaxing holiday - We just came back from a 2 weeks holiday and we can honestly say that we had a fantastic time. The location of the hotel is perfect as it's very close to the sea, tavernas and all the amenities that you need. It's a family run hotel with excellent service. All of the staff are helpful, polite and they can't do enough to make you feel welcome. Thank you all for a lovely relaxing holiday.
• Marc (6/5): Belle village et citoyens sympatique - L'hotel a besoin d'une renouvellement du sanitaire et de l'electricite
• Anthony (8/5): Easy to find, great staff - Efficent and helpful staff, clean rooms. Only let down by the age of the building. Great for a quiet get away
• mario (6/5): modesto albergo ma in ottima posizione - sebbene le camere siamo un po' vetuste (soprattutto i servizi igienici) la posizione, il prezzo la cordialità del personale, fanno di questo hotel un ottimo soggiorno
• Zouhour (8/5): Description séjour - Le patron de l'hôtel très gentil nous a attendu jusqu'à 2h du matin le jour de notre arrivée sans savoir si nous venions ou pas car j'avais oublié de confirmer par mail. Il nous a quand même gentillement offert un thé et café. Il nous a invité à une soirée avec buffet en fin de séjour, nous avons été agréablement surpris par la gentillesse de tout le personnel jusqu'aux femmes de ménage. L'hôtel est très bien situé, le meilleur hôtel de morts, le seul avec piscine d'après ce qu'on a pu voir. Bord de mer à 2min avec plein de restaurants. Un séjour de 2 semaines idéal où nous nous sommes bien reposés loin du bruit des hôtels clubs.
• Verified traveler (8/5): Les propriétaires sont très avenant et gentil - Très belle endroit la plage est à côté très beau séjour
• Verified traveler (10/5): nice hotel, lovely staff, beach nearby - Myrtos is lovely - this hotel was handy to beach, town, walks - staff/owners were very nice - food was great - good spot for families and couples (if you are looking for Malia you are on the wrong side of the island) Very highly recommended, hope to return next year.
• Verified traveler (6/5): Cole water - Was Good for the price but the water Was Cold and they didn'tfix
• Lauren (10/5): Awesome location - Our stay at Hotel Esperides was great. It is a family run hotel which has really everything you need, and the greatest service. Once we arrived and checked in, we asked the gentleman at the front desk if there was a laundry facility near the town, he proceeded to ask his mother who offered to wash our one month worth of washing for two people herself. She even returned the clothes all neatly folded and dress shirts on hangers! Everyone who works there is friendly and helpful. There is a continental breakfast in the morning which also included hard boiled eggs, cold-cuts and cheese which is great. There is a fully stocked bar near the reception as well as a pool bar, there is even an espresso machine! They do not have a restaurant, however they can make you sandwiches (which are called toast "tost") as well as an assortment of sodas, juices and waters and 3 flavors of ice creams (chocolate,strawberry,vanilla). The rooms are cleaned daily which is fantastic, the rooms also have a fridge which is extremely convenient for all the cold water you will need to consume and maybe some left overs. The bathrooms are a decent size. All in all, our stay at Esperides was great, welcoming and in a convenient location close to the town of Myrtos and only a 10 minute drive from the large town of Ierapetra! AMAZING!
