An amazing holiday

Platanias village hotel offers great amenities Rooms are spread amongst beautiful gardens with ocean view balconies. The staff were very welcoming and helpful to the very last day. The access to the beach resort is an absolute bonus and we thoroughly enjoyed the Sunday Greek dinner in the roof garden with plenty of Cretan delicacies and the usual Cretan hospitality. Would definitely stay again.

Best hotel I've stayed in Greece! The pool is really nice and the restaurant also serves very good food. The only disadvantage is that I wish their pool bar serves food as well, then I would stay whole day by the pool. Location is great, right at the one side of the busy platanias street. Also 5 minutes walk to the beach. Staffs are very nice and friendly. Couldn't recommend more of this hotel!

Not a four star hotel

Never ever in my life have I stayed in a hotel (even as a teenager in hostels) where beds have casters, so whenever you move, the bed moves with you, the mattresses are so uncomfortable, I am not even going to mention the pillows. We were halfboard, the food is plentiful but repetitive, so you get fed up eating the same thing again and again, another matter feta cheese doesnt go with every dish even lasagna and pasta. We paid extra for sea view, not worth it at all, as the hotel is not high, the view is obstructed with roofs, ugly antennas, satellite dishes, water tanks...

Great Hotel with Pools and Beach Access

Very nice hotel - modern & clean, good price. A strong 4* - easily a 4.5* hotel! Would definitely return to this hotel, given the opportunity. • Booked with Breakfast included only - Hotel breakfast offered great variety & tasty food. • Many restaurants, bars & souvenier shops easily accessible along the main road (15 - 25 min walk). • Beach access was fairly close, even though hotel (Porto Platanias Village) is not on the beach. • Great big pool, and access to 2 other pools at Porto Platanias Beach Resort. • Close proximity to city bus that goes to famous Chania (Xania) Port (shopping, restaurants, very characteristic old port area). Bus ride is 25 mins. Price is €2.10 Euro/person per way. • Beach chair loungers affordable €8.00 per 2 chairs & 1 umbrella; staff walk around & offer free watermelon & cold wet naps on beach - very nice touch • Beach water is very calm & refreshing - nice swim area near the hotel only. • Room is very clean - Suite for 3 persons was a little small, but did not spend much time in room - lots to see/do nearby.

The grounds are beautiful but the room was a catastrophe. I had a one bedroom room for $350 per night. The room was tiny, the beds were the typical 2 tiny twin beds stuck together. If the mattresses were descent it would be ok but you literally would sink in the mattress. There is also no tv in the living room and the whole room was no more than 250 sq feet or 25 square meters. Do not waste your hard earned money here on a crap room. I stayed up the road at 2 other hotels for roughly a third the cost and they were the same size with nicer finishes and descent normal queen size mattresses.

Great if you like large, well run hotel complexes

Platanias village resort is one of two "sister" hotels, adjacent to one another, but divided by the coast road. The sister hotel was the Porto Platanias, which is located closer to the beach, however the distance from the sea is marginal, perhaps an additional 3 minute stroll from the village resort. Both hotels complexes are very large, but well appointed. The village resort has one large pool whereas the Porto resort has several smaller ones. Both complexes appear to be relatively new, probably around 10 years old or less, but the feel of the Village hotel is more relaxed as there are plenty of open spaces and "cobbled" walkways whereas the Porto hotel feels somewhat maze like with small piazzas and underpasses throughout If you like spending your holiday on a hotel complex then this may be the place for you as both resorts are well run and offer everything you need - BUT the hotels are set right in the middle of a very commercialised tourist area - and you will see little of the real Crete if you chose to stay at these resorts. It is possible to walk up the mountain to the old village if you wish to do so, (I would recommend this) - but in order to escape the tourist shops, cocktail bars and such, it is necessary to rent a car as the tourist area is extensive. That said the beach was nice, with several beach bars serving good food at reasonable prices. The snorkeling and diving options were worth the money as the sea is beautiful and unspoilt.

It's a 3.5 star hotel not 5 stars

The breakfast buffet definitely poor for a 5 star hotel, I was expecting fresh juices, only had pork, same 3 fruit options everyday and dry pastries. The beds were the worse, soo low, very uncomfortable and they make noises. The shower was tiny as well argh. And then one receptionist lady (Ioanna) if I remember her name correctly, wanted us to pay extra for parking just because, to qoute her "ooh because 5 euros is such a lot of money that you cannot pay it". Even though the hotel rule is, 1st day of parking is free and this was advised to us prior by another receptionist lady, I wish I remembered her name, because she was lovely with such a beautiful smile. She recommended us a local restaurant and we had an amazing experience at that restaurant. Ooh and then showers behind the reception horrible, there was water everywhere on the floor with a little space where men, women and children are supposed to get ready showers and dress up, anyone that walks can see you. Literally no privacy at all whatsoever. Overall the aesthetics of the hotel outside is 4* but the rooms and food 3*, I'm glad we didn't choose half board.

Lovely hotel in great location

We were upgraded on arrival from a 1 bedroom apartment to a 2 bedroom apartment which was great. The apartment was fairly spacious, clean with plenty of storage and 2 separate balconies. The kitchen area was very small but had a fridge and 2 ring hob. There were not many plates, only 3 cups and 4 glasses and you would struggle to self cater here, no sharp knife or chopping board. It was fine for us to prepare sandwiches for lunch. We bought a corkscrew/bottle opener as there wasn't one. Might be an idea to bung one in your suitcase ! We also ended up buying washing up liquid, dishcloth and tea towel but all very cheap to buy locally. Ou apartment was in a great location on the second floor facing the back with views up the hill, very quiet except for the cicadas. The pool was lovely, warm and quite big. We tended to use the sun beds on the grassy area which was a bit more spacious. We only ate in the restaurant for breakfast and this was fantastic, with a huge variety, from fruit, to pastries and pancakes, cooked and cold meats, even salad! Fruit juice very watered down but everything else very good. Fresh coffee delicious. Platanias beach is a short walk, 5 minutes away. Nice sandy beach with good snorkelling by the rocks. Boat trips go from the small port. There are a good variety of restaurants to choose from, along the main road, down by the beach and up in the old part of town. Our favourites were Meteoron and Viigli at the top and Waves on the beach.

Sköna sängar, rena rum, bra krut i duschen. Trevlig personal överallt bortsett från i receptionen, de var inte speciellt hjälpsamma. För få solsängar och trångt vid poolen. Skyltar finns uppsatta runt poolområdet som säger att man inte får boka solsäng och att handdukar tas bort av personalen efter 30 min - detta var tyvärr ett tomt hot. Folk paxade solsängar vid 6-7 på morgonen för att sedan inte nyttja dem under stora delar av dagen. Vattenlandet uppskattades av barnen. Mat och dryck var OK.

Personalet snakker engelsk, så kommunikasjonen gikk greit. Bra renhold hver dag. Air condition var separert i to soner, det var veldig bra. Kjøkkenet har svært begrenset med utstyr, og det blir kun vasket opp for hånd. Ok for en enkel lunsj. Soving: Anbefaler IKKE dette hotellet om du er over 170cm og vil sove komfortabelt. Dobbeltseng var grei, men sovesofa/gjestesenger var elendige og altfor korte. (Hadde bedt om 2 dobbltsenger i bookingen, men fikk ikke dette hverken i 1. eller 2.leilighet) Fikk byttet leilighet etter første natt, men dessverre ikke mye bedre. (Vi var litt uheldige med at personalet hadde hvilerom vis a vis døren, da det ble mye støy og røyking inne. Høylytt skravling, en god stund før vi hadde tenkt til å stå opp) Frokosten har godt utvalg av både varm og kald mat. Laktosefrie alternativer til melk. Oppskåret frukt, kule-is. Kaffe, te. Savner god juice (det som tilbys minner mer om en sterk, ublandet saft) Bading: superfin strand med egne senger. Deilig at vi fikk egne håndklær til strand/basseng. Det reklameres med badeanlegg, men kun bassenget/solsenger kan benyttes om du ikke har all inklusive, ellers er det 15€ ekstra pr. person pr. dag for å ta sklier. (Tror aldersgrense for gratis inngang var 7 år) Vi benyttet ikke spa, men et velutstyrt treningsrom som var døgnåpent. Ingen mulighet for sen utsjekk, heller ikke mot betaling. Noen katter rundt leiligheten, men de var bare søte. Endel lyd fra sirisser, som er vanlig på Kreta.

Meget smuk oase med masser af beplantning og blomster. Aircon i hvert rum,som kølede godt ned. Vi manglede lidt information fra receptionen da vi checkede ind ift.faciliteter og muligheder på søsterhotel,men vi fandt ud af tingene efterhånden. Morgenmad var fint og god service. Juice var dog mere saftevand og dårlig kvalitet.

Skuffende

Levede slet ikke op til forventningerne Som jeg ser det, så er det langt fra et 5 stjernet hotel. Maden i restauranten var lunken og udvalget begrænset Vi har været på 3 stjernet hoteller hvor maden var betydelig bedre. Håbløst pool område med at for få liggestole

Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication

Obeskrivlig dålig

Väldigt dålig och tråkigt hotell, städning var väldigt dålig, rummen städades inte alls så bra plus att sista dagen för oss u rummet städade de inte alls och vi ringer receptionen och klagade men inget hjälpte. Poolen var väldigt smutsig, vi håll hela tiden på att halka i poolområde, dålig cirkulerande poolvattnet, ingen svalkande vatten och dessvärre varm vatten. På hemsidan står att hotellet har underhållning men det som de hade var att två tjejer var vid poolen på morgongympa ca 30 minuter och inget annat annars måste man gå till dottershotell för ta del av deras aktivitet. Dessa information hade vi inte fått förrän sista dagen för oss i hotellet när vi skulle checka ut . Sammanfattningsvis rekommenderar ingen att boka detta hotell för att man får inte ens 10% av det man betalat för . Synd att jag inte fotograferade.

Sängyt aivan hirveitä. Pomppi ja liikkui mukana kun käänsin selkää. Parveke täynnä muurahaisia jotka kulkeutuivat myös kylpyhuoneeseen jonka lattia oli niitä täynnä niitä.
