Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was lovely. However, the room floor was dirty and not swept prior to arrival. Window was left open prior to arrival and we had numerous flying bugs in the room. Given it is an old property the amenities, specifically in the bathroom, were lacking. High step in tub, narrow and difficult to shower in. I regret not being able to recommend this hotel.

The hotel is located on the edge of old town, by the bay and next to the Venetian Fortress. It has a convenient parking onsite which is a big plus for a hotel located in old town Rethymno. The room is clean and the staff very friendly and welcoming. The location is ideal for exploring old town and surrounding area. Rethymno Beach is on 15 minutes walk away. Dining options in old town is endless.

Well positioned hotel
Hotel in a lovely position right near the castle and old town, great for exploring and loads of restaurants nearby. The "suite" was a little underwhelming - just a small extra room with a mini-kitchen, table and single bed all wedged in. Breakfast had a good variety and the public areas were clean and quiet, but could have done with something to give some shade for the roof terrace.

Adonis was a gracious host, and we especially enjoyed talkig with Nikki, who was part of the staff. Our apartment was spacious, and had a nice balcony with a nice city view that also looked out on the Fortezza. Adonis oriented us to the neighborhood with suggestions and a map. We had kitchen facilities that were very convenient and our bed and air conditioning made our sleep very comfortable. We were even able to easily extend our stay on short notice. We definitely recommend Palazzo Vecchio!

A fantastic stay in a beautiful hotel in the old town. The staff was amazing - friendly and so helpful. The beds were super comfortable and the pool and roof terrace are an extra bonus. I would highly recommend it.

Warm welcome
A very warm welcome from the manager on arrival. The room was large with a fridge. The breakfast was very good. The location was excellent right by the old quarter. The car park was excellent and we left our car there the following morning after checkout which was handy. We were sorry only had one night there.

Crete Travels
Overpriced compared to other accommodation stayed at during our travels across Crete. Breakfast was poor. It could be a H&S issue with going up 2 flights of stairs from the small courtyard pool to the sun terrace. Water coming up the floor waste when bath water left out.
