The hotel was excellent and I can highly recommend it. This was our first stay at this hotel and since there were four of us we needed that many beds. The hotel was one of the few that offered four separate beds at the reservation time. The hotel was very clean, well maintained, easily accessible and offered all the amenities that traveler to this town would like to have. Centrally located yet quiet, the hotel offered convenience to all main attractions, supermarkets, coffee shops, additional shopping, etc.

Hébergement mal insonorisé ( touristes assez bruyants aussi), manque d'équipements au niveau de la kitchenette ( pas de micro-ondes, pas de poêle, pas de ramequins.) Piscine fermée à 18h00 au début du mois de juillet ! Pas de télévision même si présente dans l'appartement (pour information pour ceux qui y sont accros). En revanche tout ce qui était lié à la blanchisserie très bien, l'emplacement de l'hôtel est parfait avec un parking à proximité. L'appartement en lui même était assez spacieux pour 2 personnes avec un petit balcon. Zone piétonne à proximité, bord de plage, très bonne situation géographique.

Die Unterkunft liegt sehr zentral in Chersonissos und so kann man gemütlich durch die Straßen schlendern und erreicht alles in sehr kurzer Gehzeit. Im Hotel selbst war alles super, der Rezeptionist hat uns so freundlich empfangen und uns während des ganzen Aufenthalts mit Tips und Infos begleitet, auf eine nette und nicht aufdringliche Art. Das Zimmer war sehr sauber und ausreichend groß, es ist nichts auszusetzen! Ich würde es auf jeden Fall nochmal buchen.

Aanrader!

Begin Juli naar Elychryson gegaan om 6 dagen te feesten en naar het strand te gaan in Cherso. Ligging is ideaal, dichtbij strip maar wel rustig. We werden enorm aardig ontvangen door de behulpzame host. Hij was altijd beschikbaar als we vragen of problemen hadden. Zwembad is goed en hotel is rustig. Kamer is schoon en wordt elke dag schoongemaakt. Top vakantie gehad en wij zouden Elychryson zeker aanraden als accomodatie!

이용후기가 적어 걱정하였으나, 매우 만족합니다. 사장님은 매우 친절하였으며, 객실은 청결하고 넓었습니다. 취사를 위한 기본적인 시설이 포함되어 있었고, 가족 단위의 여행에 매우 적합하다고 생각합니다.

Greatest hotel in Crete!

I have been vacating in Greece many times now, and of all the hotels I've stayed in Elychyson has without doubt been the best in every way. All areas are clean and nice looking, the rooms have comfortable beds and excellent curtains (!). There were no loud noises and nobody woke me up when I wanted to sleep during the day. The location is optimal, just 3 minutes walk to the restaurant area but still far enough not to get bothered by noice from the street. The hotel's perhaps biggest asset is the manager, Giorgos. To this date I have never experienced a higher level of service, what a cool guy! There is no doubt where we'll be staying the next time we're in Crete. Thank you!
