We hoped for the usual Greek 3 star hotel - usually one more than it would rate in UK, but were very pleased to find a hotel that was up to 3 star standard, and in some aspects better. Our room, 306, had a reasonable sized balcony, plenty of room for the 2 chairs and table. It was lit and... More

We selected this hotel through Thomas Cook and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The staff were friendly and helpful nd the standard of the breakfast was very good with a choice of hot and cold food. The pool although small was clean and kept quit cold which I enjoy. This is not a hotel for children though and I would not... More

Just returned from having spent a week at this hotel. Our room had a balcony with a sea view and was big enough although the bath was a bit small on the small side.The room was cleaned daily and the hotel was clean and well kept throughout.The staff were friendly and helpful and the self service breakfast was adequate. It... More

Nice hotel situated in the old town of Rethymno, close to the Venetian harbor and lots of good restaurants and shops. Quite new and simple hotel with all you need of appliances and ammenities. Nice back garden with pool and sunbeds. Breakfast served in the lobby and outside, but the selection could have been better and so could the service... More

We (2 adults and a 4 year old) visited the Ideon in Sept 2011. On arrival in the early hours of the morning, we were given our room key and tiredly proceeded to our room. We requested a pool view (a year in advance) but were greeted with walls and rooftops (from what we could see in the dark) and... More

My husband and I stayed 5 days in this hotel. While the greeting at the front desk wasnt all that friendly, and we were a bit surprised that we had to take our own bags to the room, though there was a lift we were quite happy with the hotel overall. I had requested a sea view, front room and... More

There are many excellent reviews of the hotel and the town here and on the whole I agree with most of them. I therefore propose to concentrate on other points. We spent a fortnight in Room 306 overlooking the pool at the end of August. Front of the hotel has lovely sea views but not much sun on the balconies.... More

After booking this hotel for a special treat I was slightly dissapointed. Unfortunately the flights were at silly o`clock and we arrived in the early hours. Our room was in the annex next door on the ground floor. The first impression was that although we had a garden the room wasnt very spacious. In the room was a kitchen area... More

for us that we travel usually in cozy small hotels/ rooms around Greece and abroad, this "standard" hotel, wasn't fitting to our style. So my review is very subjective and coming through that. cons: Simple, standard and a wannabe 4* hotel (general problem with "stars" in Greece). pros: Simple, standard, on very central location.
