Elounda is one of the most beautiful and interesting places in Greece. The hotel is a advantageous location with fantastic views. The staff are willing to assist you any time and always smile. The rooms are good sized, modern/minimal and clean. Just what you need. The pool area big enough and my children had excellent time. Many thanks to Dimitris... more

This hotel is situated on a steep slope about 2 kilometres outside the picturesque little town of Elounda which has a pretty harbour (a real harbour not a marina!) and a good range of shops and tavernas. The walk to town is easy and pleasant (but of course uphill on the way back!). The views from most of the rooms... more

Pool - great, Food -fine, Rooms - need repairs, Staff - friendly, Facilities - requires modernisation. Do not be fooled by the website - check the visitor photos instead. This hotel is past its former glory. It has potential but it is not being fulfilled. Elounda itself is charming and there are some excellent driving to be done. Overall -... more

My husband and I stayed at the Elounda Ilion for 6 nights and we enjoyed our time there. We stayed in a superior bungalow which was beautifully furnished in a contemporary style and spotless clean.

Some of the rooms also looked very good but others did not, including the one we stayed in; so be careful what you book and, I'd suggest you book the most expensive... more

The Elounda Ilion has a beautiful setting with absolutely amazing views. My husband and I have travelled all across the world and I have not had as good a welcome as we did here. Nothing was too much trouble for Anna and her staff. Dimitri behind the bar deserves a very special mention as he, not only is a great... more

The hotel was located quite a distance from Elounda - I would definitely recommend hiring a car. The facilities were adequate but not 4 star quality. Our room was very basic, especially the bathroom which had a horrible dirty shower curtain and tatty towels. The food served at both breakfast and dinner left a lot to be desired, having only... more

My husband and I have been going to this hotel for over 19 years.The view is amazing,and it is the best location hotel in Elounda. It is situated on top of a hill surrounded by olive groves and with views of the sea. The walk into the village takes 20/30 minutes and is so pretty with the olive trees on... more
