We rented a car to travel in Rethymno and we were looking for something in the centre of the town, with car parking area and breakfast. We arrived very late at night and we were very welcomed at the reception of Fortezza Hotel and our room with the view of the hotel swimming pool and the garden was wonderful. Breakfast was great and all the staff so helpful and very nice. Next time we will definitely stay longer there.

8/10

The room was ok, but rather expensive. Our balcony was so tiny we had to take turns! This was a real disappointment. The breakfast was good but the coffee (from a machine) was awful. Why don't Greek hotels offer Greek coffee? I appreciated the provision of a small fridge but it was fairly useless as the electricity was off while we were out of the room so nothing got cold.

Lovely hotel right in the heart of Old Town but away from the bars. Parking was a challenge but worth the effort.

Nice hotel and staff. Everything in the room is more than adequate but not outstanding. A kettle would be nice. Breakfast good and plenty. Communal areas including pool are lovely. Position of hotel on edge of old town so very convenient.

Lovely hotel, comfortable, clean and recently updated bathroom, efficient air conditioning, good wireless connection, friendly staff, good breakfast buffet, lovely looking pool area (we didn't get a chance to use it but it looked like it would have been great, if we had had time), close to the main tourist attractions (the old town, the fortress, etc). Parking available for 9€ at the time of this review.
