Disliked: Room comfort
Average hotel. Room on the first floor kind of dark - small windows looking straight over a narrow alley to neighbors balconies. TV picture very low quality. Coffee quality at breakfast quite awful - basically light brown hot water. :( Pool actually in the next hotel and you have to take at least 5 min walk to get there - the direct way is blocked.

Nice Seafront Hotel

Situated in Plakias on the South Coast of Crete. Pleasant family hotel yards from the shingle beach. Had room 216 on 2nd floor. Fantastic views from the balcony. 35m square metre quoted Inc bathroom and balcony. Includes spa bath. Pay 4 euro for 2 sun loungers on beach which can be deducted from hotel buffet lunch ( not evening dinner ). 1.50 euro daily for safe box at reception.Plenty of free on street parking. Large buffet breakfast. 8 euro pp for lunch/ dinner buffets extra. Only one complaint , the food is invariably lukewarm at all meals. Need to improve system of keeping it hot. Has a lift to all floors but on the small size. Might be difficult for someone in a wheelchair.

Hôtel agréable et bien situé face à la mer

À notre arrivée, la chambre attribuée ne correspondait pas à notre réservation comprenant une vue mer, mais après réclamation, l’erreur a été corrigée. Donc très bon séjour dans une chambre très confortable.

Très bien situé en bord de plage. Petit parking devant l'hôtel sinon dans la rue. Bon accueil avec toutes les informations nécessaires par le réceptionniste qui voulait pratiquer son français. Chambre petite mais fonctionnelle avec baignoire mais pas de coffre. Très bien pour un court séjour. Ascenseur trop petit. Nuit en demi pension (dîner et petit déjeuner). Excellent dîner en bord de plage avec choix de 3 plats (boissons logiquement à régler) et la traditionnelle petite douceur et digestif offerts en fin de repas. Serveurs efficaces et rapides. Petit déjeuner buffet complet.

Das Hotel Alianthos Beach ist ideal gelegen. Über die Straße kommt man direkt zum Strand. Das Frühstücksbuffet ist abwechslungsreich und lecker. Das Essen im Restaurant ist ebenfalls sehr lecker und man sitzt sehr schön unter den Bäumen mit Blick aufs Meer. Kleiner Kritikpunkt: Wir wurden zuerst in einem Zimmer zur Seite ohne Meerblick untergebracht, obwohl wir Meerblick gebucht hatten. Am nächsten Tag konnten wir in ein Zimmer mit sehr schönem Ausblick umziehen.

Hôtel en bord de mer,juste une route à traverser.La plage en face de l'hôtel n'est pas belle mais il faut juste marcher 500m vers l'est et là la plage est sublime.La demi pension est très correcte,le petit déjeuner est bon,le dîner était simple mais copieux sauf le dessert qui se résumait à qqs tranches de pastèque( tous les soirs) accompagné de raki . J'aurai préféré un peu plus de choix sans alcool tort boyaux!!
