Top Institute of Mediterranean Studies Hotel Reviews

Veneto Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"An historic and charming hotel centrally located in the pedestrian area of Rethymno. Approx an 8-10 minute walk from taxi drop-off. My suite was very roomy with good amenities albeit lacking drawer space. Good quality bed linen. Bathroom small but manageable. Breakfast well presented with a wide choice of hot and cold options. Excellent and delicious evening dining. Possible in delightful courtyard. Service impeccable. (It's very highly rated as one of the best 'restaurants' in Rethymno) Friendly and helpful staff and great service throughout. Highly recommended."

Rimondi Boutique Hotels-Small Luxury Hotels of the World

10/10 Excellent

"Very beautiful property, was treated very well by all the hotel staff. Also comes with a lovely breakfast buffet in the morning."

Casa Vitae

10/10 Excellent

"The apartment is located in the heart of old town. You need to walk a short distance from the taxi stop to reach it. It is two bedrooms and two bathrooms. You can hear noise from neighbors. The shower is good after waiting several minutes for warm water. There is a kitchen and outdoors area with a small pool. I noticed someone had entered the apartment while we were out although it was not scheduled for the housekeeper visit. I was told the housekeeper needed to open the door to sweep the hall, tho she would’ve walked through the whole apartment to go outside to put the sun umbrella down. I prefer to know when to expect people while we are out so I can secure valuables better. Also it wasn’t always easy getting a response from the manager because he said a phone battery was not working. Otherwise, we enjoyed the space and great location."

Palazzino Di Corina

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful traditional hotel in a great location on the edge of the old town. All of the staff were great and super helpful."

ISIDORA home

10/10 Excellent

"I loved Isidora's Home conveniently located in Old town Rethymno. I was walking distance from the KTEL bus station and close to where the tour buses pick up for excursions (diagonally across from Church of the Four Martyrs near the parking lot) and a lot of great restaurants like Stella's Kitchen (i recommend getting there before 1pm). The host was very attentive no matter what time of night. I give this place 10 stars 😊😊😊"
