Reviews of Gateway Suites

Everything. Situated in the old town, two minutes frim the ancient harbour. With all the facilities you need. Even a private small swimming pool.

We had our own plunge pool.

Nothing

We had a great one night stay - there were two separate rooms with separate bathrooms, and obviously the jacuzzi outside was the highlight. Detail was paid to a lot of things - raki and peanuts, and cake was waiting in the room, plenty of towels and slippers provided, coffee maker with capsules, towel rack outside for beach clothes to hang. Location was great - inside the old town, and parking available close by.

Mattress was a little too hard.

Outdoor bath was a nice experience Staff very helpful

Our stay in the “Pathos” suite was truly special. We spent just one night there, but it was a thoroughly pleasant experience in a minimalist room overlooking a quiet inner courtyard. The hot tub was a real treat after a long and tiring day at work. The welcome with fresh fruit was a perfect example of genuine hospitality. As our work will bring us back to Rethymno, we will definitely choose the “Pathos” suite again for our stay.

Beautifully decorated, incredibly clean room, with a lovely bathroom and splendid outside area! We loved the kitchenette which was fully equipped, and the staff were very welcoming and friendly.

The waterfall for the plunge pool could have been a bit stronger but it still was a lovely pool.

Great location very close to harbour & old city.

Was indicated there was some free parking available nearby but host advised I should use the paid cark to avoid a parking fine. Cost an extra €14

Bedrooms were great, they had everything you needed. Beds were comfy. Location was ideal.

Wifi was not good. The cost of our room was high in comparison Bathroom was a bit small.

Attractive, quiet room in old style building ie a separate room on the flat roof of the building. The shower was big and not hand-held - which seems rare in Crete. The receptionist was friendly and helpful. They gave us tips for restaurants - we picked one and it was excellent. The location is excellent. It is very close to the old town but is not in the area of noisy tourist mayhem. Parking is in a nearby paid car park. It's a reasonably easy drive into town from the west.

The description of how to find the front door to reception was not easy to follow. The water in Rethymno was off in the morning - not the hotel's fault.

The location is fantastic.

It has a hostel/backpacking vibe. we had the suite with the plunge pool, the photos are very deceiving and I mistakenly thought it was on two levels and was much bigger than it actually is. It is by no means ‘executive’ The very tiny courtyard with plunge pool is overlooked by the room above it. There is no drawer space. The kitchen area is so small it is pointless. The shower is extremely small and narrow, a larger person would not fit in it and it floods. The sink is in the bedroom because there is no room for it in the bathroom. There is absolutely nothing luxurious about the accommodation. They have just crammed too many rooms into a small building. Very disappointing.

This was one of the best hotels I've ever stayed at. The location is perfectly located at the edge of the old town, walking distance from the beach, giving the best of both worlds. My girlfriend and I stayed in the deluxe suite with the private plunge pool, and this was both very romantic and very needed in the warm Cretan summer.

It would have been helpful to know to contact reception in Ink Hotel for keys etc. there was no notice at Gateway Suites address door.

Located right in old town Rethymno and easy walk everywhere. Good restaurants and shops.

The entrance where you check-in was not easy to find. Once you have checked in, there is a main door in the back on a small street, but check-in is confusing. I would recommend including a note for clarity.

Clean, beautiful, great location, unique, friendly staff, good value.
