Apartment setup
This is a decent place to stay with great views. It is close to wine country in Crete. The hotel grounds were nice with various areas to enjoy the view including our own balcony. Pool was good. Breakfast was tasty. We were not given much information when we arrived such when and where breakfast was served. There was a sheet inside the apartment luckily that went over the necessary details. The bed and pillows were not very comfortable. Also, the towels were so stiff and scratchy, it was like wiping off with sandpaper. Small extras like soap, shampoo, coffee/tea were not provided. Small fridge and cooktop were included. The electricity turned off in our apartment randomly in the morning. Lucikly, I was just finishing in the shower, but the bathroom was very dark. We finished getting ready with no power. By the time we ate breakfast, it was back on. We have no idea what caused it. We were only using a few lights.

Excellent hotel, host and value
We had a fantastic stay at Asion Lithos and were made to feel incredibly welcome. The apartment rooms are well equipped and comfortable and the setting for the hotel is wonderful. Nikos is a fantastic host and happy to give you tips for local attractions, restaurants etc but at the same time let us relax and enjoy ourselves in peace and quiet. We would highly recommend.

Vom Anfang bis zum Ende war es ein super schöner und erholsamer Urlaub/Aufenthalt!!! Wir wurden sehr Herzlich empfangen. Aufgrund das alles mit unserem Flug und Leihwagen reibungslos geklappt hat waren wir früher wie vereinbart am Anreisetag im Asion Lithos. Das war überhaupt kein Problem und wir konnten wenig später in unser Appartement was keine Wünsche übrig ließ. Das Anwesen wird mit Liebe gepflegt und unser morgendlicher Ausblick auf Pool und Tal waren super schön. Ich möchte ganz besonders unsere Frühstücks-Feen erwähnen die mit ihrer Herzlichkeit uns jeden unserer 12 Tage ein Frühstück mit Liebe gezaubert haben. Die Drei vermisse ich unheimlich!!! IHR SEID TOLL!!! Für uns steht fest wir werden auf jeden Fall wiederkommen!!! Wir sagen von Herzen " EFHARISTO "

Das Hotel ist im Dorf Kato Asites ruhig gelegen und mit dem Auto problemlos zu erreichen, GPS/Ortskenntnisse vorausgesetzt. Geeignete Lage, um mit dem Mietwagen die Insel zu erkunden. Malerischer Blick auf die kretischen Berge. Zimmer sehr geräumig und sauber mit schöner Terrasse. Deutlich über südeuropäischem Standard, inklusive Küche und ausreichender Ausstattung. Einerseits hilft Nikos gerne mit persönlichen Tipps zur Tagesplanung, was vielen angesichts der vielleicht etwas unpersönlichen Betreuung in größeren Hotels entgegenkommt. Andererseits ist er oft beschäftigt und nicht rund um die Uhr ansprechbar. Die weiteren Hotelangestellten sind meist mit der Reinigung der Zimmer beschäftigt, sodass für die Gästebetreuung tagsüber meist niemand mehr zuständig ist; von Bar-/Cafébetrieb war während unseres Aufenhaltes nichts zu sehen. Das Frühstück ist allenfalls auf durchschnittlichem südeuropäischen Niveau, eher süßlastig, angesichts der vielen positiven Beschreibungen enttäuschend. Lieber selbst versorgen und auf der schönen eigenen Terrasse frühstücken. Abendessen gelegentlich auf Anfrage möglich, dieses wird jedoch vorab zubereitet und anschließend in der Mikrowelle aufgewärmt; hier sind die zahlreichen Tavernen in den Dörfern deutlich anprechender. Fazit: Ideal für Selbstversorger, die einen ruhigen Rückzugsort mit Zimmerreinigung suchen. Wer professionellen Full-Time-Service mit entsprechendem gastronomischen Angebot sucht, ist mit einem Hotel ab 4 Sternen besser bedient.

Résidence en vielles pierres construite en lisière d'un village situé au sud d’Heraklion, à une vingtaine de minutes de la route côtière du nord de l'ile. Appartements confortables équipés d'une cuisine aménagée et d'un balcon ; jardin ombragé reposant très bien entretenu et piscine. Merci à Nikolaos pour son accueil.

Tolles Hotel in kleinem Ort für Ruhesuchende
Eine hübsche Bleibe für alle die Entspannen wollen. Das Hotel ist neu und dementsprechend auch in einem top Zustand. Wunderschöner Ausblick auf die umliegende Landschaft. Freundliche und zuvorkommende Hotelangestellte. Preis/Leistungsverhältnis ist absolut überragend. Mietauto beinahe zwingend erforderlich.
