Amazing host and an amazing space to stay in. My partner and I resided here for 3 nights and had a great time. Iro was friendly and provided plenty of information and resources on the area to check out and eat at. Would highly recommend!
Great location and right in the action of Reythmno. Beautiful and spacious suite. Great rooftop deck and several nice courtyards around the property. Quiet , safe and beautiful!
The location is amazing, a few minutes walking distance from the harbor, tons of restaurants nearby. My room is spacious and clean. The air conditioner works well. The only thing I would remind is that if you carry heavy luggage you should think about twice before your booking. You need to climb a steep stairs(more than 10 steps) before you arrive at your room, and you should not expect to get any help even there is some staff on site.
Iro was so great! Loved meeting her, she has such an amazing personality. So helpful with all our questions. Great comfortable room and perfect location.

Nice place to stay in Old Town Rethymno
A great location on the northeast edge of the old town and very close to (paid) parking lot. It's clean, quiet and convenient to everything in old town. This time we stayed on the ground floor which you might prefer if you have trouble climbing stairs.
Clean and quiet place to rest in Old Town Rethymno
Whenever visiting Rethymno, we stay here (several times already). It's on the north edge of the old town, right across the road from the municipal parking lot, which is good when you have a lot of luggage. The host (Iro) is very friendly and helpful, and it's very quiet inside. All the comforts are there like wifi and air conditioning. Highly recommended.

Lovely family property with beautiful communal area including a lovely garden. Family live on site and are available daily to support guests. The property is well maintained and rooms are regularly cleaned and linen/towels changed. The property is well located and just minutes walk from both the old town and Venetian harbour. The family are super friendly and helpful.

Staying at Barbara Studios was like staying with family. Hint: Barbara and her husband live in the front and their daughter Iro is taking care of the guests. Our room was gorgeous and cozy. There are small little details everywhere and you can see and feel the love they put into it. We really enjoyed our stay and will come back for sure <3
Iro is an excellent host. She’s very friendly, helpful and gave us a lot of information about the area. Our room was beautifully decorated with wonderful stonework. The kitchenette had everything you would need. The bed was comfortable and the towels were soft and high quality. There were several communal and garden areas to rest and relax in outside our room as well. Great location. This is a perfect place to stay.
This hotel is fantastic! The location is perfect for walking around the old town. As always in these ancient towns, parking can be sporting. However, here, simply drop your bags nearby or at the hotel and look for a place. We found a free parking space quite easily and it was a very busy day. Just drive around the fortress. Our room was perfect. Clean and a great shower. The owners are lovely. Restaurants nearby have the best of Cretan cooking. Highly recommend.
We have stayed here before and it's a quiet, clean and very convenient place to visit old town Rethymno. The location is on the edge of the pedestrian-only zone, and close to the (paid) parking lot at the port. There is good Internet and air conditioning, and a kitchenette too. Our host Iro is very friendly, accessible and responsive to any problems.
Our room this time was up two long flights of stairs (and a steep staircase to the loft bedroom). So if you have trouble climbing, you may want to book one on the ground floor :) We'll definitely stay here again!
Quiet location in the Old City. Easy walking distance to restaurants, harbour and municipal gardens. The room simple and comfortable, the staff
friendly and helpful.
The room was stunning and spacious. The manager, Iro, was lovely and extremely helpful. I loved that she put together a booklet filled with suggestions for what to see and do in town and some of her favourite places to eat.

Really perfect, a beautiful place to stay with a really friendly host. Thank you
Emplacement exceptionnel dans la vieille ville et à l’abri du bruit, bâtiments anciens rénovés avec beaucoup de goût.
2 accès possibles 1 dans une vielle ruelle , l’autre donnant vers le bord de mer et les restaurants qui la bordent
