Matala Hotels

Great welcome from staff who seemed genuinely pleased to see us.Room was clean and well furnished and bathroom likewise. Hotel in quiet location but within short walk of the beach,town and all facilities.Breakfast was excellent ...the apricot jam is a must!

Be aware that ceilings in the rooms are very high and this combined with hard surfaces throughut mean that sounds echo and are magnified....not a problem during the day, but a snorer in the neighbouring room disturbed us...and probably the rest of the hotel.... on our first night!!

The main staff was quite friendly, and the pool was nicely maintained and refreshing.

The rooms were quite small and not very comfortable. Everything was quite bare-bones, and there were frequent complaints about the bugs. Unfortunately, without screens on the windows, you either have to have the bugs, the heat or pay for the A/C. Also, the wireless internet was out and they didn't accept credit cards. The breakfast was most disappointing. Typically, buffet breakfasts that we ate in Crete at least included yogurt, but here it was just a bit of meat, cheese, bread and instant coffee. Yogurt is available at an extra fee. Overall, a disappointing experience.

Very nice white wine bottle included!

Great location, a few minutes walk from the centre. Good breakfast, and lovely pool area. Room and bathroom clean but dated, but for such a good price it didnt really matter! Hard to find on the way into Matala, but a sign is visible as you exit the village. The turning is opposite the Matala Bay Hotel.
