This was a very clean and convenient hotel. The breakfast which was included was delicious
Great hotel just outside of the main village, very clean and quiet. The hotel was recently renovated and is very good condition, there is also a tasty complimentary breakfast. I would definitely recommend this hotel.
Small hotel with A/C and clean nice accommodations. The lobby area is cute with albums available to play in a turntable. Nice breakfast and a funky driftwood sculpture garden next door. Restaurants and shops in walking distance and parking easy.
Best hotel I've stayed in Crete so far (I've stayed in over 6 already) The rooms are modern and soundproofed with double glazed windows and AC. The breakfast is amazing, fresh orange juice with a selection of healthy fresh bread and local /international produce.
Very friendly owners and staff. Great location near port and center. Nice breakfast.
Season had finished so only skeleton staff. Shower very small.

A good stay with one disappointment.
Booked a partial sea view but were not allocated one. Our room overlooked the garden which although pleasant enough it is not what we booked. Yiannis did apologise but it makes me insecure about what room I might be given if I wish to stay again,
Kleines feines Hotel , idyllisch am Ortsrand mit Blick zum Meer!
Personal unaufdringlich sehr freundlich, Frühstücken kam Freien mit seitlichem Meerblick ein Genuss!
Der Bau hervorragend renoviert, aber trotzdem etwas hellhörig!
Hôtel très agréable, déco pleine de goût et originale, petit-déjeuner excellent avec plein de produits locaux. Super accueil et conseils de Iannis ! Je recommande à tous ceux qui passent par Paleochora !
Kommer tilbake år etter år. Vakker hage. Deilig takterasse med hengekøyer som man kan ligge å se på stjernene i, eller titte ut over havet. Nydelig frokost. Rom vaskes og pyntes hver dag. Vil helst ikke at så mange skal oppdage dette hotellet og Paleochora, vi vil at det skal forbli stille og rolig. Langt vekk fra turistmaskiner.
Wir hatten im Aris Hotel einen wunderschönen Aufenthalt. Es liegt direkt am Meer und ist wirklich sehr ruhig gelegen. Das Frühstücksbuffet war lecker mit viel Auswahl, hier ist für jeden was dabei. Die Zimmer waren schön eingerichtet und sehr sauber. Auch das Personal war äußerst freundlich und rund um die Uhr erreichbar. Eine klare Empfehlung, wir kommen gerne wieder!
Hyggelig og hjelpsom betjening, god frokost, rent og godt vedlikeholdt hotell. Rolige omgivelser og gå-avstand til både sentrum og strand. Takk for hyggelig og avstressende opphold. Vi kommer gjerne tilbake hit på ferie!!
Nice pieces of art everywhere, friendly service and tasty breakfast. If I would've stayed longer I would've gone through the vinyl collection in the lobby.

Nice hotel with friendly staff
Nice hotel with very friendly staff and beautiful location. The hotel is a 5 min walk from the town center overlooking the sea. Rooms are quite small and especially the bathrooms are tiny. Breakfast is really nice with fresh vegetables and fruit. We had issues with the toilet not working which can happen but staff was very helpful. I think the value for money is very good.
