Astali Hotel

The location itself is quite convenient, although the hotel is on a busy street, so I imagine the street-facing rooms can be quite noisy as well. The staff were mostly kind and helpful, which I appreciated.

The main issue here is the noise. The hotel has very little soundproofing, so you can easily hear doors, TVs, conversations and snoring from neighbouring rooms. The close-set rooms, tiled surfaces and gaps around the doors make everything echo. Housekeeping was particularly disruptive, with loud chatting, doors slamming and vacuum cleaners hitting walls and doors from around 7:30–8:00 AM. One morning, this continued for hours and made it difficult to sleep or even relax. I complained and was kindly moved to another room, and things did become quieter towards the end of my stay. My room faced a rather claustrophobic inner yard, while the hotel itself is on a busy street. Overall, I wouldn't recommend it if you're looking for a quiet or relaxing stay.

La proprete des lieux, le Pdj copieux, l amabilité de la direction. Et ses smoothies 🌟🥰

Pas apprecie n est vraiment pas le mot, mais iui, la petitesse de la salle de bains. Mais peu important au vu de tout le positif et l emplacement, a deux pas de la plage et du centre historique.

Ήταν όλα τέλεια , κοντά στην θάλασσα , πολύ κακό πρωινό και καθαριότητα

We had a very pleasant stay here - the rooms were clean and comfortable, with comfy beds and pillows, great A/C, excellent water pressure, and a nice big sink. The breakfast met all our needs, with lots of Greek options as well as eggs, bacon, etc. I liked the varieties of bread and pastry that changed daily! The owners and staff were lovely people, kind and very helpful with buying bus tickets and booking cabs and such. It's a bit of a walk to the town center, but super-close to Rethymno beach, easy to pop back and forth to the hotel if you forget your sunscreen :)

Obviously the traffic is beyond the owners' control, but the mopeds in particular can be noisy at all hours. We used a noise-canceling phone app (MyNoise), which helped a lot! Sensitive folks might want to request a room on the side away from the street.

Buona posizione x visitare la citta',buona colazione,ok aria condizionata.

Bagno piccolo,con doccia con tenda, non adatta a un 3 stelle, quasi impossibile trovare un parcheggio nelle vicinanze in agosto, le donne delle pulizie fanno rumore gia' alle 7 del mattino.

Ontbijt

Geluidsoverlast. Deuren zijn niet voldoende geluidsdempend.

Emplacement, accueil et proprete

Frokosten er god

Приветливый персонал, готовый помочь в любых вопросах,, очень чисто. Прекрасное расположение, море, рестраны, кафе близко. Отлично, спасибо!)

Wir wurden sehr herzlich bewirtschaftet. Ich komme gerne wieder.

Es war etwas veraltet.

Frokosten var helt ok, verken mer eller mindre. Veldig god kaffe.

Rommet og balkongen var det minste jeg noen gang har bodd på. Så greit nok for ei natt men hadde ikke klart å bo der i ei uke.

Trivelig personale og fin beliggenhet

A fost o experiență excepțională. Un dejun bun, bun. Curățenie nemaipomenită. Personal prietenos.

My family and I (wife and three children) stayed at the family-run Astali Hotel for three nights whilst visiting Rethymno for a family wedding. We booked through booking.com and regularly communicated with the Hotel via that app. We had a few requests due to our early arrival and Marios was exceptionally responsive and helpful. The family owners really make you feel very welcome and valued as their guest. The hotel itself is perfectly located and has all amenities you could need. The rooms are spotlessly clean and decorated to a high standard. I have stayed in many hotels in Europe and beyond before but this was the only hotel which I feel I should strongly recommend.

KAHVALTI YETERLİ DÜZEYDE İYİ,KONUMU MERKEZE YAKIN,MEMNUN KALDIK.

Prima ontbijt, vriendelijk personeel, heerlijke douche, fijn bed, alles op loopafstand

Erg druk verkeer

Bien situé pour visiter la ville. Propre, tranquille, bon déjeuner. Personnel sympathique E-bike avec Yannis, à la gorge de Mili! Super expérience

Buena situación al lado de la playa y a 10 minutos del centro. Personal del hotel muy agradable y predispuesto. Aparqué al lado del hotel gracias al recepcionista. Buen desayuno con zumo de naranja exprimido por uno mismo. Me hicieron un upgrade así que gracias por ello. Para finalizar decir que el hotel es algo antiguo pero a mí me valió, pero si te gusta el lujo este no es tu sitio.

Good location at about 5 mins on foot from the beach — the town centre is a bit farther away, at approximately 15 mins. Breakfast was small but it had everything I needed. The staff are very welcoming!

The room was not too soundproof.

Veldig enkel frokost.........

Petit hôtel très bien placé, qui permet de tout faire à pied. Personnel très agréable et disponible. Bon petit déjeuner. Très propre.

Chambre pas très grande..

The place is spotless, the people who work there are awesome and they give a great free breakfast considering the price point

It was our third stay at Astali. I believe this is the best location in Rethymno. The old city and the beach is only a few minutes walking distance. The staff is absolutely kind, we always enjoy our stay. See you next year ;)

The sewers are a problem in the city, they can be smelly, but this is not something that the hotel can control...

We loved everything about our stay. PROS: . Very convenient location close to a beautiful stretch of the beach, the port and the old town - Lovely mother-son team running the hotel: friendly, helpful and efficient. Always there to answer your questions and offer advice - Excellent breakfast with Cretan/Greek specialties, fresh orange juice on top of your regular continental breakfast options. CONS: Not much to complain about. The washroom is a bit small and gets wet when you shower but that wasn't a big deal for us. Highly recommend Crete and this gem of a hotel

Hele schone kamers, fijne bedden, heel lekker ontbijt, familie Astali is erg gastvrij en erg vriendelijk .

waarom toch altijd de te kleine douche met douchegordijn( al was deze wel superfris) in Griekenland

Localisation centrale pour ce petit hôtel. Parking gratuit dans la rue, j'ai trouvé une place devant directement ! Petit déj correct mais rien de fou.

La chambre était tres petite. Le rideau de douche qui colle aux f*sses en 2025 ca n'est plus autorisé... Pas de plaid ou couette, un drap plié : il faut faire le lit soit même. Vue sur une cour intérieure sans interêt. Ascenseur minuscule (1 personne)

Good hotel. The location is excellent, not far from the sea and the old town. The staff are very friendly. Breakfast is generally good and without excess. I was especially pleased to find an iron in the room — a small detail, but very convenient.

The only thing I really disliked was the shower curtain — it was a nightmare, always trying to stick to you. Apart from that, I have no complaints

I cant say enough good things about my stay at Astali Hotel. Everyone working there is so incredibly nice and everything you need is right around the corner. They made my stay in Rethymno very memorable and if I ever come back ill be staying at Astali Hotel again.

Very conveniently located Hotel, 5 minutes to the beach or marina with it access to shops and restaurants. Good breakfast, clean room, comfy bed. Very friendly and pleasant in general. I really enjoyed my stay there

N/A

Πολύ descent ως προς τη σχέση ποιότητας-τιμής. Είναι σε σούπερ κεντρικό σημείο οπότε μετράει πολύ. Έχει μπαλκονάκι και είναι καθαρά! Έχει επίσης καλό ίντερνετ. Οι καθαρίστριες όταν τους είπαμε αν μπορούν να έρθουν σε μία ώρα αντί για την ώρα που έπρεπε δέχτηκαν! Πολύ εξυπηρετικό προσωπικό γενικά, με γρατζούνησε μια γάτα και μου έφεραν οινόπνευμα, μπεταντίν και βαμβάκι!

Δυστυχώς, οι πετσέτες είχαν μία περίεργη μυρωδιά.. Δε μύριζαν δηλαδή την κλασική καθαριότητα. Επιπλέον, η ηχομόνωση ήταν πολύ κακή... Ακούγαμε τις καθαρίστριες και δυσκολευόμασταν να κοιμηθούμε ή να συνεχίσουμε τον ύπνο μας... Επίσης, είναι πολύ μικρός ο χώρος - βέβαια αυτό το αναμέναμε από την περιγραφή, απλώς το αναφέρω. Επίσης, θέλαμε ένα δεύτερο στρώμα αλλά δεν είχαν - βέβαια ήμασταν σε διπλό κρεβάτι και είχαν ήδη ένα διπλό στρώμα, απλώς δεν ήμασταν ζευγάρι και προτιμούσαμε ο καθένας να έχει το στρώμα του. Κατά τ' άλλα πολύ κομπλέ!

Il personale è molto gentile, la reception è aperta h24

Non c'è il parcheggio, però abbastanza vicino c'è un piazzale dove il parcheggio è libero salvo la giornata del mercato

Confortável, central e perto da praia

Funktionelle Familien-Hotel nahe zum Strand, zur Altstadt und zur Einkaufsmeile, sehr sehr freundlich, ohne Mankos. Danke!

Warm welcome, all the staff was lovely and helpful. The room was absolutely clean. Breakfast generous and tasty. Perfect location, very convenient

Colazione pessima

Das Hotel liegt sehr zentral, ist ordentlich und sauber.

Die Zimmer sind sehr hellhörig, es war mir zu laut…

Das Hotel ist perfekt mit seiner Lage und den tollen Zimmern. Es ist alles Fuß läufig erreichbar. Ich habe gut geschlafen und eine schöne Zeit in Rethymno gehabt.

Szállás központi helyen van, minden elérhető távolságban. Barátságos, segítőkész tulajdonosok, vidám légkör, családias hangulat.

Immaculately clean hotel. Every morning the cleaning was done but it was done to such a standard that was literally Immaculate, hats off to the cleaners because this absolute gem is pristine. The breakfast was lovely and everything was so fresh. It has such a lovely, welcoming vibe and the two brothers are so very nice, polite and make you feel very welcome. All the family is lovely, always a hello and goodnight. Beds comfy, the location is ideal to explore the city and I will absolutely come back to this hotel

Returning to the Astali hotel, that we've stayed at several times, and everything first class as always. The location is great being close to the beach, and old town. Very friendly welcome from the family and staff which is so nice. Rooms and hotel spotlessly clean. Breakfast very good with plenty of choice and good quality produce. Also air conditioning that works well, which we were grateful for with the high temperatures that we experienced whilst there. Always enjoy our holidays here and hopefully will have more.

This is a great hotel, fantastic location and great service. Food is great, rooms are well equipped and clean, regular cleaning and towel changing. It’s a small hotel not crowded, very pleasant and quiet inside. The only downside is the traffic because the area is crowded with cars and motorcycles the whole night. We had a great balcony with a nice view. Everything is functional. I’d give it a 5/5

An absolute gem of a Hotel! Spot on location - 2 minutes from the beach, 3 minutes to a beautiful marina and maybe a 5-10 minute walk to the old town - depending on your speed of course. It was spotlessly clean and I'm quite picky. The staff were so lovely, friendly and helpful. Very simply decorated room but with everything you need - a mini fridge, hairdryer, even an iron and ironing board. If you forget your charger they have some you can borrow. There are mini safes but there is a charge for them - I didn't bother as I didn't feel the need. Breakfast was a standard continental Greek breakfast - fruit, meats, cheese, eggs and pastries etc. You can squeeze your own orange juice and the good thing is that they serve til 10.30 so you can have a lie in - you are on holiday after all. Great for solo travellers.

Only one small negative, the shower - very small with just a curtain so water would go over the floor. I can see it's a space issue and I don't know if it's the same in all the rooms - it definitely wasn't a deal breaker and if I were ever to go back to Rethymnon I would stay here again!

We had a wonderful stay at Astali Hotel in Rethymno. The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating. We were able to leave our luggage at the hotel before check-in, go on a trip, and when we returned, our belongings were already waiting for us in the room. The staff was always helpful and attentive. The location is perfect – very close to the beach, the city center, and plenty of great restaurants. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Rethymno.

The location of Astali Hotel is excellent, very close to the city center and the beach. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful throughout our stay. Highly recommended!

Breakfast was buffet style served between 7.30-10.30. Had a large array of fruit, yoghurt, breads, pastries, eggs, meats, Greek breakfast ingredients. Endless coffee, tea, water and you could sit as long as you liked. Very relaxed, very lovely What a lovely find! The whole experience centres on 5* staff and the family who own the hotel. Perfect location, perfect price and a casual (which requires hard work) feel so that you can settle wherever you fancy. Just perfect!

It was a great experience and I could not identify any negatives

What a lovely find! The whole experience centres on 5* staff and the family who own the hotel. Perfect location, perfect price and a casual (which requires hard work) feel so that you can settle wherever you fancy. Whatever you want is provided without any fuss. Just perfect!

Friendly staff, OK for a night.

No parking nearby. The bathroom is very bad - tiny shower with a horrible curtain - everything gets wet after shower.

The room is very clean and has everything you need. The staff of the hotel is very kind. The position of the hotel is also very good just a few minutes away from the city center.

The room was a bit small.

Great position near to the beach but also near to the old city Very clean, staff very nice, the owners are nice people, ready to help and to give advaces Everything is top

Everything was just fine

The staff were super friendly, the hotel is close to the beach, there are a few restaurants around and some markets too. The room was clean and very spacious even for one person.

House keepers were a little bit too loud in the morning. We get it that they have to clean the rooms daily but please don’t start it at 8-9 am when everyone is still sleeping

You really can’t go wrong with the Astali. It is in a great location close to the old town and beach. The rooms are impeccably clean. Breakfast is fresh and plentiful with lots of choice. Wonderful staff. Would not stay anywhere else in Rethymnon.

Väldigt trevlig personal. Väldigt rent och fräscht. Läget var perfekt. Frukosten var bra. Rummet städas varje dag. Skönt att kunna lämna nyckeln i reception så man slipper ta med den till stranden.

The best affordable hotel in Rethymno! Great location, wonderful staff, as we understood this is a lovely family business and they aproached our visit with love and dedication. Everyone was extremely friendly and welcoming! The breakfast was great with decent variety! Our room was cute and small, but really clean at all times, and bed was comfortable, it even has a speaker with a few stations! There is a free parking right down the street at the right side of the port. We really enjoyed the stay and we wholeheartedly recommend this hotel! We might return, too!

The rooms are very clean and the stuff are really friendly

I didn’t have b&b

Can’t say

Great location. Very Clean.

Great breakfast, great location, excellent staff, very clean.

Smokers on the terrace but it's Greece so it's hard to avoid. The rooms are small but they are priced very well, comfortable, clean, well air conditioned and quiet. It's a very high budget standard and for a holiday where you don't spend much time in your room it's ideal.

Great location. Family owned and pleasant. Would highly recommend

The bar could have done with stocking more choices

Great location, very friendly people and all round good stay. Just a bit far from the bus station.

The breakfast (included) was a little basic, but I’m probably just spoiled. :)

It's really close to rhe centre and the room was clean. The personnel was also nice.

The room was very small for two persons.

Great location close to both the beach, nightlife and the old town. Balcony with ocean view. Room was cleaned every day. Very friendly and professional staff. I would love to stay here again, they made my birthday vacation extra special!

nice and great staff...

to expensive for just a room that is filled with the bed...

We stayed at Astali for 6 nights, and had a really nice stay! The staff at the hotel were so friendly and always willing to help when we had different questions. For example, they helped us planning trips to places around the island. The hotel is located close to the old town, and also the beach. You can walk to almost everything from the hotel. The bus station is also a 15 minutes walk away, if you want to explore some of the other villages and attractions nearby. The room had AC and a little fridge, which was nice in the heat. The cleaning was impeccable, for instance we got new towels every day. We would highly recommend this hotel in Rethymnon, and we would love to come back!

Nice experience in this family hotel, very well run! Good conditions for the money and for a 3 stars hotel: confy beds, very good AC and wifi, elevator. Have to pay for the safe, 2 e/day. Pretty small bathroom, but ok for an economy room. Every day cleaning the room. Also, every day changing towels. Very close to the beach, around 200 m, and also close to the old center, about 500 m. The breakfast also good for a 3 stars hotel. I would go back for sure.

Very good location, clean and the staff was very friendly

Hotel and staff were great, I was a single traveller and whilst the room was ok for me, the shower was on the small size for me a biggish bloke (not fat). The visit to the Astali was pretty good , just the small niggle wrt the shower. Would recommend and go back there.

Location

The breakfast: the supply was very limited,and quality of the food was very poor
