Leo Hotel

I visited Leo hotel in July and I am beyond pleased with the hospitality, cleanness, kindness of the staff and overall it was a great experience! Will definitely be back!! I recommend it to everyone . Madam Eleni was a great host and her daughter was also a delight ! The gave me instructions and shared with me all the local places besides the known „tourist traps“

We recently enjoyed a fabulous 5 night stay at the Leo Hotel and we absolutely loved it. What a fabulous location, right in the heart of the old town of Rethymno. It's so lovely to be able to step out of the door and straight into the little streets and alleyways of this beautiful old town, with plenty of lovely restaurants, bars and shops to choose from. In spite of being so central, it was quiet in the hotel and we slept very well. The hotel itself is a former Venetian residence and it far exceeded our expectations. Our room was large and beautiful, beds were comfortable and all was kept spotlessly clean. Breakfast can be purchased whenever you want it, it is good value, very tasty and plentiful! We had hired a car and we always managed to find a free parking space around the fortress which is just 5 mins walk away. Best of all is the warm welcome you will receive from Eleni and Richard and team. They are just fantastic. Eleni gave us tips for the best beaches and places to visit. She even helped me in my quest to learn Greek!! What a fantastic stay, get it booked, you won't regret it! Thanks so much. Don't forget to come and visit us in Devon one day. Love Louise and Ben xx

The location and price of the hotel, right in Old Town, was great. The hotel itself was comfortable and quiet and the owner seemed like she would accommodate us the best she could. What was unfortunate was the bathroom - the door didn't ever really close. It was a swinging, glass door with a frosted appearance. There was a gap between the door and the wall so, in addition to it being frosted, it didn't lend for much privacy. My husband and I were traveling with a friend so this made bathroom time a little uncomfortable, especially because the hotel room itself was not large.

Return visit: just as exceptional as 14 years before. Boutique, charming hotel, elegant, spacious, romantic bedrooms with lovely, high quality, roomy bathrooms in the heart of old Rethymno near the harbor and the fort. Ekeni is a marvelous host: kind, caring, efficient. The breakfast is fabulous: either sit inside or outside at the little tables. Highly recommend this hotel for its elegant charm, friendly reception, and calm oasis in the heart of the bustling city.

A very warm welcome when we arrived. Quick and efficient check in. The room was tastefully decorated and very clean. The location is in the heart of the old town so no more than a couple of mins walk all the main tourist sights. There are no place to park but that is only to be expected when you book any hotel in the heart of the old town. How ever there are 3 car parking places all within 5 mins walk of the hotel.
