St. Anthony Gorge is an ideal place to begin your discovery of Rethymno. This steep-walled valley comes recommended by fellow travelers, but it isn't the only thing to do here. Allow some time for other sights like Fortezza Castle, University of Crete, and Rethymnon Town Hall to fully experience what the area has to offer.

Domus Reis is amazing! I loved that the property keep many architectural and artful features from the previous palace. It is in the heart of old Hania. The staff is respectful, informative and eager to please. The breakfasts were delicious. I loved the avocado toast! Free parking is available close by. I highly recommend it!

Beautiful thoughtful renovation of a very old building. For design and architecture fans. From the linens to the woodwork every detail done with finesse. Sweetest staff and fresh breakfast buffet on a comfortable little terrace among the rooftops.. Hotel is in a pedestrian part of the old town, in a quiet alley off a narrow street that comes alive at night with outdoor dining. Quiet but very central. Loved this place.
