Fragiskos Hotel
8.8 (40 reviews)

Fragiskos Hotel ★★★

📍 Pitsidia, Matala

"A very nice stay decided at the last moment and which brought us some nice surprises both in terms of the majestic setting and in terms of the welcome and the living environment of the hotel, a 3 star which surprised us very much. its buffet and exemplary cleanliness, we recommend this hotel."

Hotel Neos Matala
7.7 (26 reviews)

Hotel Neos Matala ★★

📍 Matala, Matala

"A very fond memory. We've been there twice in a row and it's always great. The owners (Cornelia and Michael) are extremely nice, as well as the related guests, all one big family. If you are looking for the luxury of a 5-star hotel, look elsewhere. The priority here is the atmosphere, maximum cleanliness, the effort to fulfill every wish of the guest. A few minutes' walk to the center or the beach. We teach everyone. Marian and Viera, Slovakia"

Matala Dimitris Resort
8.1 (32 reviews)

Matala Dimitris Resort ★★★

📍 XQW4+28, Matala Main Road, Matala

"Worst experience in a hotel: absolutely avoid. I wouldn't even call the Dimitris Villa a "hotel": it's a country house masquerading as a tourist facility. We had booked a double room, but without any prior notice, we were assigned a single with two tiny beds, barely suitable for children. The bedding was embarrassing: a simple sheet placed directly on the mattress, without a mattress protector—definitely unhygienic (I've attached a photo). The room was cramped, not soundproofed (we could hear every word from the neighbors), and the bathroom was unusable: the shower and sink were completely clogged. The check-in (after 3:30 PM) and check-out times are inconvenient, and there's no real reception. The breakfast is extremely basic and definitely not worth the extra cost. But the worst came on the second day: after returning from a day at the beach, we found the room exactly as we'd left it—no cleaning, no towel change. After reporting the problem to the agency, they lied, saying they'd contacted us to fix the room, which never happened. I just wanted to leave, even if it meant losing my money! Non-existent service, neglected property, don't be fooled by the photos: this place is anything but a hotel. A complete scam!"

Matala Bay Hotel & Apartments
8.1 (29 reviews)

Matala Bay Hotel & Apartments ★★★

📍 Matala, Matala

"The appartments are way off from the hotel. Maybee 1-2 Miles.. why par for the Beach accessability when u need to drive there? The appartment has only one bathroom, not 2. No wahing mashine. No pool. No externa lights. No reading lamps in bedroom. The paint is peeling off, poor build quility and dangerous appliances."

Matala Hostel
7.7 (7 reviews)

Matala Hostel ★★

📍 Epar.Od. Gortinas - Matalon, Matala

"I stayed at this hostel for one night during a music festival, and I had a really positive experience. The room was clean, the staff were very polite and helpful, and they even provided me with an extra blanket when I asked. The location is excellent—right next to the bus stop, just a 5–7 minute walk to the beach, and close to the city center. The room had a proper renovation, the air conditioning worked perfectly, and I slept comfortably. Overall, I enjoyed my stay"

Calypso Hotel
8.0 (13 reviews)

Calypso Hotel ★★

📍 Matala, Matala

"I think it's the worst hotel I've been in... The food, let's not talk about it, it's totally indecent (the lunch is nothing continental, low standard. The evening meal, 1 normal dish and 1 vegetarian dish. As starters, salad, tomatoes, onions, olives, ... dessert, 1 fruit...) And what's more, it's not even good, the leftovers reused as much as possible, boiled eggs that have been hard for several days... At least we discovered some great little restaurants in town! The wifi does not work in the rooms even though it says "Wifi in the rooms"! When we complain about it, they say it works on the terrace, which is not true, we have the signal but impossible to connect. And when by some miracle it connects, nothing happens! It seems that it's because of the mountains, that it's like that everywhere in Greece, I have to deal with it... while the wifi works very well in the restaurant and everywhere else in Matala in the restaurants! At the Calypso hotel, we even receive wifi from surrounding hotels, but unfortunately no password :( TV. We're not here for that but still, at the limit, I would prefer that it not There aren't any! 3 channels: 2 German and one French-speaking. All almost as scrambled as Canal + without a decoder. The French-speaking channel remained frozen 4 days a week and what's more, they chose LN24 but the African version! Nothing against it, but this information interests me less... I had asked for a room on the ground floor, we were put on the highest floor... A broken fridge remained at the bottom of the stairs during the entire stay... Icy reception, I was even yelled at because I wasn't parked in the right place. And at the reception, you have to manage: we go up there with our luggage, we are given a sheet with some practical instructions and then it's you manage. And no one to help with the luggage... they are there, sitting, but no one moves... nice The girls who take care of the cleaning and clearing the tables in the restaurant are nice, but we have to clear our table ourselves! Is this a hotel or are we at home? A word of advice, there are other hotels, avoid this one, even if it is not expensive! Written promises but nothing in practice. Positive: the swimming pool but we have the sea very close..."

Hotel Eva Marina
8.0 (15 reviews)

Hotel Eva Marina ★★

📍 Matala, Matala

"The 2* hotel is a few minutes from the beach and is perfect! I was there for 10 days at the end of May until 8th of June. My room was spotless, was cleaned every day by a very friendly young man and I got new sheets and towels every second day! The owners are so friendly and made me feel very welcome, their breakfast buffet and coffee was great. There were also some really tasty Greek delicacies in pastry and some Crêpes in Nutella! 😋 All in all I had a great stay and can highly recommend the Eva Marina!"

Fragiskos Hotel ★★★
"Hotel is more than average, a little dated. The rooms could do with a bit of rejuvenation with a bathroom to be overhauled. For your electric razor and/or hair dryer, bring an extension cord because there is no power outlet in the bathroom. There is also no shelf to place your toiletries. In terms of TV, 2 channels in French, France2 and Israel24! The food is repetitive, nothing transcendent. Apart from the cleaning ladies, the staff are not friendly, especially the bartender who laughs when he gets burned. The rooms are not soundproofed, so you can hear everything that is happening next door. If you want to go on excursions, take your safe because you must pay for them in cash.....!,,, at the price of €85 per person on average for excursions, add it up if there are several of you staying ! I do not recommend this hotel, however it is very well located, 50 meters from the beach, restaurants, shops. The positive point is staying in this village which has kept its hippie atmosphere from the 70s. As for the FRAM facilitator, he will only make you smile if you take his proposed excursions. "

Matala Dimitris Resort ★★★
"Set in quiet gardens on the outskirts of Matila, this small complex of apartments is ideal for a peaceful stay. The room is nicely furnished with a model shower room, tv and fridge. There is a small balcony over looking the gardens. There is a really lovely swimming pool for guests use. We were able to park our hire car close to the accommodation and walk into town in about 15 minutes."

"The hotel isn't too far from the caves, but there are closer options. There's a HUGE problem with the Wi-Fi, which disconnects very frequently. The food is just okay and quite repetitive. The room is outdated."

Calypso Hotel ★★
"We stayed at this property in Matala from 2 to 10 September, in room 19 (2 adults and 1 child). The hotel is very simple, in an excellent position to go to both the beach and the centre of Matala, and there is a very pleasant swimming pool. Our room was spacious and nice with a basic and repetitive breakfast. We had an unpleasant experience, as we had deposited our documents and cash in the safety deposit box (lockable), from which unfortunately €600 was stolen, €350 from my wallet and €250 from my husband's. We have been going on holiday to Crete in this area for years, for the first time in this hotel that we did not know, but nothing like this had ever happened to us. We returned very disappointed and bitter, €600 is not a trifle...."

Melissa Hotel ★★★
"Room 15 Family type hotel that Marina, her husband and her daughter have run for a long time, very friendly people who made us have a pleasant stay, thank you to you Located 1 km from the center of Matala on a gentle slope which allows a short walk in the evening after dinner Functional room, well cleaned regularly during our 3-week stay Classic breakfast from 8 a.m. Evening meal served at the table on a plate set menu (the menu could be displayed in the morning which would have been a plus) , fresh produce, good cuisine In conclusion, good value for money"
