Rimondi Boutique Hotels, an SLH Hotel in Rethymno 741 31.
Rimondi Boutique Hotels rises from Rethymno's historic old town, its Venetian architecture framed by the Cretan Sea and surrounding hillsides.
Stone facades and arched windows overlook narrow cobblestone streets that lead down to the waterfront, creating an intimate backdrop where centuries of Mediterranean history become your ceremony setting.
This 4.7-rated property positions you at the intersection of culture, coastline, and Old World charm.
The location of this hotel is excellent however this also means you cannot arrive by car to the reception area. The reception area is located in the old town which means , no vehicles. Overall the hotel was very nice with a few issues. The pool was used by the pigeons for a toilet and drinking fountain so we avoided it. The breakfast was good and plenty of choice except the hot food never changed. The rooms are quirky and the beds are on mezzanine floors in some rooms with narrow and steep stairs to get there. You need your wits about you when using them or if you had been enjoying the excellent Greek wine. Lots of great restaurants near the hotel however the old town is a confusing array of streets which you are sure to get lost. The local area and indeed the town felt very safe.
