Veneto Boutique Hotel

its a unique place in the heart of Rethimno

Very charming hotel. Pleasant stay and very friendly staff. Also they were very helpful. Breakfast was excellent. Not sure why other reviews didn’t like the breakfast! It was really good.

Loved this tiny hotel. It’s 600 years old and used to be a monastery, so it’s very tastefully decorated in an Old World style. It’s on a charming narrow alley with greenery hanging overhead. They offer a welcome drink. We had no intention of having dinner here but we looked at the menu while having the welcomed drink and the menu was amazing. We had the lamb and cheese in pastry and the vine leaves stuffed with lamb. And they even gave us 10% off since we were staying there. But back to the room. It was huge. It had a hair dryer and plenty of places to put your luggage. The view from room 109 was of the fortress and a charming courtyard restaurant below with a gurgling fountain. Since it’s a restaurant below there is noise but it was minimal and the fountain overrode the restaurant noise. We were exhausted and went to sleep at 9 with the window open and the noise wasn’t a problem. The fountain was turned off at some point and it was very quiet. The fountain was turned back on at 7 a.m. I really loved the white noise from the fountain. The bed was king sized, medium firmness. There is a safe but it’s too small for computers. The receptionist was very friendly as was the waiter. We highly recommend this hotel. We were only staying one night so we parked at the Fortessa Parking Lot 20 euros for 24 hours. There are cheaper parking lots a bit farther away. Ask and they’ll send you a list of parking lots.

The Veneto Hotel is wonderfully located for exploring Rethymno. It’s in the old town section of the city. It’s an old mansion renovated into a hotel. Our room had a lovely patio attached, as well as a balcony. Both the patio and the balcony overlook the restaurant courtyard. The furnishings are somewhat dated, but the bed and pillows are comfortable and the shower has plenty of pressure and hot water. The room and the bathroom are large by European standards. Because the room overlooks the restaurant courtyard, bring white noise or ear plugs. The staff at the hotel are very helpful and accommodating.

Lovely and cosy hotel with very friendly staff. Fresh flowwrs and delicious breakfast. We were very pleased. Recommend!
