Theros Hotel

Very nice people, very clean, great food, near to the beach

Room was clean with a great sea view. Staff were very helpful and always had a smile. Room was cleaned daily and you could tell the owners took pride in their hotel as they could be seen around lunch time out tending to the plants and cleaning the pool area when it wasn't in use. The breakfast brought to the room was very nice and meant we could enjoy breakfast at our leisure on the balcony. Any minor issues were quickly rectified, for example the batteries ran out in the aircon remote. We notified the front desk and batteries were waiting next to our door when we returned. Staff were always friendly and would ask about your day when returning to the hotel. Additional nice little touches were the staff allowing us to charge our devices at the front desk (power goes out when you leave the room) and also we weren't disturbed by the cleaner once (we are late risers) yet the room was cleaned daily. Pool and surrounding area was immaculate.

Positives: The hotel looks very nice, rooms are cleaned daily, change of towels and linen every 3rd day. Bed very comfortable, good quality linen and pillows. Did not use the pool, but it looked very clean and good sized. Tavronitis is not very interesting place but is excellent starting point for exploring the western part of the island, being close to the best beaches, as well as to the city of Chania and the nice little villages. Many good restaurants and other places nearby (like Kolymbari). Very close to the crowded and noisy Platanias and Agia Marina, if you are interested. Negatives: breakfast was very abundant but could be more varied and more domestic food (it was 80% supermarket); pity our bedroom on the ground floor did not have a window (not counting the tiny rear one that had to have curtains all the time, facing the hotel passage) and did not have sea view, but only the pool view from our beautiful balcony. But still, we had and upgrade from a studio to 1 bedroom app. The bathroom is clean but the shower curtain is tedious and of no use since the bathroom floor gets wet and flooded every time. Absolute positives: highly recommended for the extremely kind and helpful staff, especially Antonia, who made us feel very welcome and special and made our stay in Crete unforgettable, so we didn’t care much for the negatives. Thank you again!

My girlfriend and I had a very pleasant stay at this hotel. The room was spacious and tidy with a good sized kitchenette should you wish to do some cooking yourself during your stay. The staff were very attentive and friendly, we were also able to print all of our documents at reception for the flight home (including all COVID-19 documents!) which was super handy. The breakfasts provided in the mornings where very tasty including different traditional Greek elements each day, having it brought to our room so we could have breakfast in bed was a very nice touch too. The local beach near the hotel is nice and quiet, snorkelling here we saw lots of different fish and even an octopus. We tended to drive most evenings to have dinner in Chania which was only 25mins away. We also drove to Elafonsi and Balos beach and found this hotel location perfect for being closer to these tourist spots. We have to say though that the local beach was actually our favourite because of how peaceful it was. It is a pebble beach which is still comfortable to sit and lay on but if you prefer sand a two min walk along the beach it becomes entirely sandy, we noticed turtle egg spots marked by conservationists along this beach and if we had more time we would have stayed up late to try and see turtles laying for ourselves. Parking was located out the front of the hotel, the road is also so quiet that you could also easily park on the road if the spots were full up although we never had to anyway.
