Just back from a fantastic stay in Georgiopoulis, loved our stay at the Athena Hotel, lovely family run hotel, friendly, spotlessly clean, lovely swimming pool area. Only tiny problem was the shower pressure some evenings was very low but not a big problem. Will definitely stay again

Great choice!
Lovely, clean, large room with kitchen and balcony. Staff are very friendly, helpful, and welcoming. Great pool and hotel is a very short walk to the center of town and the beach. Great value for the money; will definitely stay here again.

This was a wonderful small property to stay in. The proprietor was so lovely. Could not fault her. The location was excellent. Pit of the very centre of Georioupolis but so close the town square was only a five minute (if that) walk away. Restaurants and shops were almost on the doorstep, with lots of choice. The beach was a stone’s throw away. But at the same time if you were there in high season you would be slightly removed from the hubbub. Our maisonette was impeccably clean. The beds were comfortable. It was nice to have a mini kitchen, in particular a fridge. We also appreciated that there was a table and chairs on our balcony for dining outdoors. The pool area was kept clean and tidy, and there was a sandstorm while we were there. All sand was removed from the pool the following day. Honestly, great value for money. The only fault I could find was the sofa which was not comfortable at all. It would make a great place for an extra bed, but for sitting, not so much. Would recommend.

Aivan loistava lomakohde meille. Etsimme hiljaista kohdetta jossa palvelut kävelyetäisyydellä. Tämä oli sellainen. Meren ranta oli lähellä, joskin aika tavalla varattu eri hotelleille. Kyllä rannalla käveli, vuorovesi vaan piti liput punaisina. Onneksi oli rauhallinen pieni allasalue, jossa poikkeuksellisesti ei ollut näitä ”pyyhkeiden kuljettajia” varaamassa petejä. Tämä toimii näin hyvin. Isäntäväki oli sydämmellistä, kiitokset heille. Vaikea löytää yhtä miellyttävää paikkaa/huoneistoa. Kiitos!

Great location, central and close to everyone, friendly helpful staff, fabulous pool, not sure if the bar was available. The beds were a little on the hard side but it was cleaned daily and had all the facilities we needed. Would definitely stay again.

The rooms were cleaned daily and adequately equipped for our stay. The staff were very friendly and helpful and made our stay very pleasant. We would definitely recommend this hotel to our friends and will be happy to visit again next year. The only downside was that there was quite a bit of noise from the roads outside but we eventually got used to this.

Käyty monta kertaa
Kolme kertaa oltu - tällä kertaa kolme viikkoa kesä-heinäkuussa. Mukavan rauhallinen, sopivasti sivussa (= parisataa metriä) kylän keskustasta, niin illan metelit eivät kantaudu hotellille. Toki viereisen valtatien äänet kantautuvat huoneisiin, jos pitää ikkunat auki. Siivous päivittäin (pl. sunnuntai), pyyhkeiden vaihto parin päivän välein. Hieno puutarha. Ilmastointi toimii, safety-box löytyy. Omistaja ja hänen poikansa todella mukavia. Sängyt voisivat olla hiukan pidempiä ja ovat ehkä jonkun makuun liian kovia (tämä on toki mieltymysasioita). Kylässä paljon hyviä ruokapaikkoja, hyvä leipomo, hotellin vieressä kahvila, josta saa vuohenmaidosta tehtyä jäätelöä ja fantastinen Kreetan pisin ranta, jota pitkin voi kävellä vaikka Kavrosiin. Hotellin asukkaat olleet yleensä rauhallista porukkaa (ei remuavaa nuorisoa). Isot huoneet.

Petit hotel sympa
Hotel propre et accueil très sympa. Pas le grand luxe mais très bien pour le prix. Ambiance famillial et calme. Proche du centre et plages (5 à 10 min à pieds) Un peu bruyant si chambre côté route. Grande terrasse.

You get what you pay for. DISSATISFIED.
Room had poor lighting, no blanket (only sheets), and uncomfortable mattresses. However, the room was in good condition and had working AC. In addition, when we went to check out we were told that we had to go down the street to the ATM to pay in cash since the owner did not know how to use a credit card machine and that her son was not there to help her. We were VERY DISSATISFIED about this. Also, the wifi only worked near the office area and not in the room.

Athena Hotel kan anbefales.
Fin beliggenhet med lite tettsted bare noen hundre meter unna. Nesten like kort vei til fin strand. Athena Hotel er rent, trivelig og bra. Vi hadde 2 roms leilighet med bad, kjøkkenkrok, stue/oppholdsrom og balkong nede, og 2 soverom oppe. AP oppe ga behagelig temperatur på natten selv med over 30 grader ute. Fint og rent basseng. Et behagelig opphold.

giunti a tarda notte, siamo stati accolti benissimo e senza attese, sistemati in un bellissimo e confortevole appartamento che avevamo prenotato. a 5/10 minuti dalla fermata dell'autobus, sulla strada principale Chania/Rethimno, è collegato benissimo con i paesi interessanti circostanti, alle città maggiori della costa nord di Creta, alle meravigliose spiagge vicinissime e raggiungibili a piedi, e ad un bel sito da visitare, il lago di Kounas, con autobus frequenti e prenotabili facilmente dal sito internet. L'appartamento era pulitissimo, spazioso, bello fresco e avevamo accesso per tutto il giorno alla piscina della struttura!!!!!c'era anche una piscinetta per bambini, c'era il bar e la reception a disposizione per qualsiasi richiesta, molto gentili e disponibili. Accettano carta di credito e cash, rispondono subito alle e-mail e mi hanno addirittura richiamato personalmente per confermare una prenotazione che avevo inviato via telematica. Vicino all'albergo Athena ci sono ottimi ristoranti molto caratteristici ed economici e relativamente rapidi nel servire, aperti fino a molto tardi. Il prezzo è buono e considerando l'alta stagione è conveniente! Georgioupoli e Athena win!
