Our directions were a little unclear but we eventually found the village. We entered through a gate into a greek village. The receptionist was very friendly and walked us to our rooms, which was good because it is a little confusing at first to figure out where you are going. Taking all of our luggage to the room was a... more

Want no sleep, Book this hotel! J&J Cape Town, South Africa We booked this hotel via the Internet - based on customer reviews. Quoted as being close (15kms) to airport, we booked to have a good night's rest before our international flight. Well - try and sleep through a Greek Baptism celebration! It is impossible unless you are deaf! This... more

I chose to stay at Arolithos to experience the Cretan culture rather than just stay at any old hotel. I am glad I stayed there, but I was also glad that I had only booked 2 nights there. The village itself is quite charming, the receptionist was extremely friendly, breakfast was adequate, dinner in the restaurant was very inexpensive and... more

The rooms are a bit basic - stone flags etc in 'traditional' style - but we had a fridge, a/c and... more

I agree with the review titled "Village and Hotel something special" with a few minor differences. There was a refrigerator in our room so perhaps they've added them since your visit. We had no maintenance issues. The breakfast was served in a room of ample space and was of excellent quality in both taste and variety. We arrived on a... more

At first sight Arolithos is a cretan village, and actually it is! Above you have the reception near the "market place" with a small orthodox church/chapel. Then you have two "main" streets descending alongside the hill with small houses each completely different in shape and style. Everywhere plants and flowers giving the little extra to make it fantastic! The houses... more

I stayed in this hotel in June 2005. The room was dirty, noisy (music for all the night, due to a marriage in the hotel), with oppressive heat (30 C degrees) and air conditionned inadequate... Not possible to have a shower: too few water from water taps... more
