Melrose Rethymno by Mage Hotels

What a wonderful hotel is Melrose in Rethymno! Nice, clean and spacious rooms. Plenty of facilities. Delicious breakfast and super friendly and helpful staff, especially Nikoletta, Sofia, and Stella! Excellent location 50 meters from the beach and within walking distance of the historic center. We have already booked for next year!

Melrose hotel is an excellent choice. We traveled as a couple. The hotel is two minutes from the seaside promenade, beach and restaurants. At the same time, it is located in a quiet area. The rooms are very comfortable (I recommend the higher standard ones), cleaned every day. The hotel staff is very friendly and helpful in every situation. After a few days, we felt taken care of like family. The breakfasts are very tasty, everyone will find something for themselves. Drink bar by the pool, fitness area and spa. The center of Rethymno is only a 20-minute walk away. We highly recommend this place.

The breakfast was excellent with so many different choices to choose from. Tasty breads, eggs in different ways and other cooked breakfast goodies, yummy cakes, fruits. You could ask for special coffees and frappes at breakfast without extra charge. The staff was so friendly and helpful and always smiling, they all made you feel really welcome. The rooms and communal areas were very clean. There was always space by the pool, and it was good that throughout the day there always were sunny and also shady areas by the pool. Great location a minute walk from the beach promenade with shops and restaurants and 15-20 minutes walk to Rethymnon old town. There was a bottle of cold white wine and a bottle of water waiting for me in the fridge in my room - a lovely surprise. I would definitely stay in this hotel again.

Many companies and managers already know this, your staff is the heart of your business. And all I can say is that the Melrose hotel has a very big heart. Their friendly staff could not have made us feel more welcome. Everything else was nice, clean and comfortable as you may expect from a 4-star hotel, but the staff was always there for you with a smile. A few extra facts: Breakfast: perfect, fresh and very varied. Swimming pool: nice and quiet, a welcome oasis of rest in the busy town of Rethymno. Location: very close to the beach, 50 meters or so. Close to the boulevard, that leads into the old town and harbor. Supermarkets, just one block away. We did not rent a car, since everything is within walking distance. Rooms: spacious, clean and well kept. As there is always room for improvement, I have one suggestion for the hotel… please work on your playlist for the pool area. One can only bear so many mellow songs a day :-)

We visited this resort at the end of May.The hotel was pleasent, friendly and within easy reach of amenities as well as in the Island. The staff were very friendly, helpful, and resourceful. They were always ready to help, smiling, and addressing any issues. The rooms were cleaned every day. Resort had an outdoor pool with a bar as well as an indoor pool (smaller version). The best part of our experience was the breakfast bar, very friendly staff. The choices were good with cooked breakfast, cold meter, salads, fresh bread, local greek salad and fruits, fresh juices. Both indoor and outdoor seating. Also the reception was manned 24 hours with very friendly staff. A clean hotel and good value. We will visit the hotel again sometime in the future.

Ideal location, close to beach. Room was immaculately clean when we arrived and was cleaned daily. Hotel staff were friendly and helpful. Plenty of choice for breakfast, both cooked and continental. Both pool areas clean and inviting. Perfect choice!
