There will a little mix up upon arrival but the hotel upgraded us and bought us dinner to compensate us. Honestly, there was no need. The hotel was fabulous and the staff could not have been friendlier. The beach area was perfect and exactly what we wanted during our time in Greece. Rethymno is a lovely town and not nearly as busy as Chania, which made a huge difference. We would definitely go back to this hotel."Reviewed September 18, 2026Roundtrip • New York (NYC) - Heraklion (HER)EWR - HER • 1 stop HER - EWR • 1 stop$1,341$1,221found 1 day agoper traveler - El Greco Hotel
