★★★★ 9.1 (41 reviews)

"I could not fault the hotel! All staff were very helpful and accommodating. There is a shop on site that sells everything you could need. The buffet food is good quality and everything is well cooked, however there is not much variety and most dishes are meat or fish in a tomatoey sauce. On some nights we found it difficult to find things to suit our tastes (however we probably just have a boring english palette , and if you are more adventurous this may suit you better.) There is a variety of drinks available from 10:30am-10pm from the bar, bar staff lovely and drinks all very nice. Pool are is lovely and sunbeds were always available (no sunbed wars!). The only downside to this hotel is probably the location. There is only 1 restaurant and 1 small shop in close proximity, beach is okay. If you want to have a day out i would recommend Rhythmeno which is 20 ish minutes away (2.20 on the bus, or 25 in a taxi). If we came again we would probably hire a car to see more of the island. We really enjoyed our time here and did a boat trip and a bus tour, aswell as nice restaurants and shops. Rooms were all nice and clean and with lovely views."

"A lovely resort with fantastic staff. Thanks to Nikky for her advice. They offered some great excursions. The pool was a bit chilly, but we were there in September. The beach, however, was really not great. It would be a good idea to install motion-activated lights in the hallways, as it would save them a lot of money and be better for the guests, since light leaks under the doors and it's a bit annoying. Overall, a great and very relaxing stay."

"I booked this holiday a few months ago with my boyfriend, we stayed for a week at the end of June 2026. We had the most wonderful time, the hotel is spotless & exceptional service all round. The staff were incredibly helpful & nothing was ever too much bother for them. The Canteen which provides your snacks throughout the day between 10.30-6.00pm was amazing, the quality of food was fabulous & the chef was so kind & helpful. The only downfall I would say is that the all inclusive buffet is VERY SMALL. There isn't a lot to choose from & the variety isn't great either. The hotel was based in a very good location to Rethimyno. This is a must visit, the old town their is beautiful. Chania is also gorgeous in the evening, by the port, this is a must have visit! We travelled to WaterCity Water Park, one day which was about 1 hour 20 minutes away, closer to Heraklion, hiring a car if you want to go out of the days is essential as everything is quite far apart from one another. If you want to visit a really lovely beach, Elafonssi is stunning. It's about a 2 hour 30 minute drive but wow is it worth it! The clear water & the views are incredible. I would 100% recommend this hotel & location :) My boyfriend & I had a lovely stay, thank you so much."

"Lovely hotel, very clean and the staff are amazing. I would absolutely return. Great location to the beach, which is a maximum of a 10-minute walk. Shop over the road for ice cream and whatever else you need. Bus stop just outside. The food was good. We all found something to eat for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. "

"My wife and I spent 10 nights at this hotel. From the very start, right through to the last moment we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Because of late flights, we were due to arrive at around 1 am and really weren't expecting anything on arrival except a swift booking in procedure, so when we were told we'd been upgraded from a double room to a suite we were very pleasantly surprised. We were also offered a lovely pasta salad in case we were hungry after the journey which we both gratefully accepted and devoured having not realised just how hungry we were. We had hired a car from just outside the airport and I would advise anyone else to think about hiring a car if you want the convenience of independent travel while staying here. You can park out the back of the hotel on a very quiet little road with access to the hotel grounds from the rear. The suite was modern, clean, spacious, quiet and very comfortable with all the amenities one would expect. There just wasn't any traffic noise at night, there's nothing else I can say about that. One evening, a couple of days into our stay we noticed a mysterious water leak coming down the wall, I informed reception, not to complain, but just to let them know about it and it was immediately addressed by the front desk and we were offered a different room, which we didn't take up as we really didn't feel it was needed and we were happy with the room. The next morning the hotel technician came, assessed the problem and fixed it completely with no further leaks for the rest of our stay. Things happen, all you can ask is that they're dealt with efficiently, and I couldn't possibly have asked for a better response from all concerned. The restaurant is buffet style both for breakfast and dinner with a good selection to choose from at breakfast including having one of the chefs cook any type of omelette requested if you wish. Dinner has even more choice and I availed myself of several starter dishes and deserts every night as well as a great choice in both international and Greek cuisine for main dishes. No complaints at all. A very reasonably priced lunch option is available from the pool bar and it really was a very good price for food compared to when we ate out for lunch in Rethymno, Heraklion or Chania. This is a very clean hotel, you will constantly see staff washing and cleaning around the pool in the morning, mopping the floors throughout the day as well as keeping all the rooms clean and well serviced. What makes a great hotel standout from a very good one? In my opinion it's the staff that make the difference. The staff at CHC Imperial Palace, and I mean every single one of them from the cleaners, restaurant staff, front of house and pool bar staff are only too happy to be as helpful and friendly as you could possibly ask for. Their welcoming nature and helpful friendliness seems effortless and never forced. I can't emphasise enough how much of an asset they all are to the successful running"

"We had an amazing time – the place was perfect, especially for families with children. So peaceful and quiet, exactly what we needed to relax. Katerina is a fantastic host – warm, welcoming, and always ready to help. The breakfast was absolutely delicious and a great way to start the day. One of the highlights was spotting a badger in the garden one evening – such a special moment! Highly recommended."

"This was the second time we visited the hotel, and we were very pleased with our room. One drawback was that the room was over the eating area, so at 7 o'clock in the morning, one could hear the cleaning staff. We enjoyed the luxury of the saltwater pool and the friendly service of Maria and Labrini especially. The beds are very comfortable, and although the TV has many channels, there's one drawback: one cannot adjust the volume. Live music was given once or twice a week and was very enjoyable to watch and listen to. We appreciated the hard work of the employees after the huge dust storm to clean up the eating area and the pool area. Within a day, it looked a lot better. I would definitely recommend this hotel for a leisurely vacation."

"We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this hotel, and we would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to the entire staff for their exceptional hospitality. The kindness, warmth, and genuine care we received throughout our stay made our experience truly unforgettable. It is rare to meet people who are so friendly, attentive, and dedicated to their work. Honestly, we have seldom encountered a team with such remarkable human qualities. A very special thank you to Lia, Martina, Daniela, Mellina, Irini, and Anter, each of whom contributed in their own way to making our stay even more enjoyable. Their professionalism, availability, and positive attitude deserve special recognition. We are leaving with wonderful memories and a strong desire to return. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your extraordinary welcome and outstanding service. With our deepest gratitude The French couple, Anaïs & Aurélie ❤️"

Maravel Star Art Hotel ★★★★
"Positive points: beautiful rooms, a perfectly satisfactory buffet, very friendly staff, and a good entertainment team. Negative points: not at all an eco-friendly establishment: far too much consumption of plastic cups and straws. I was told this was to prevent breakage around the pool, which I understand, but why not use reusable cups? The lights in the corridors leading to the rooms stay on all night, creating a nuisance as they shine under the doors (should motion detectors be installed?). It's a shame, as this gives a bad impression of the establishment, especially on an island where it's preferable to be reasonable in consumption and to preserve this beautiful environment."

"Best value for money!!! A standard 4* hotel with all inclusive services and renovated rooms. Very near to Rethymno town, just 15 minutes by car, and 5 minutes walking to the sandy beach. We relaxed and had nice time at the beach bar and enjoyed our cocktails and the sunset!!! The food was tasty and the staff at the pool bar very friendly and helpful. I recommend it for families with kids because of the small waterpark at the new pool!!!"

"Just what the Doctor ordered , wonderful , relaxing tropical paradise in Crete. About an hour from the airport with private transfers. Located at Adelianos Kampos near lots of amenities including easy beach access: Bars Restaurants Supermarkets Souvenir, jewlery and clothes shops About thirty euros return to Rethymon by Taxi booked via the hotel. Bus stop opposite the hotel if required. Living the Dream we are staying here now in a Jaquizzi Suite opposite the main road which does not bother us as we like to people watch, we havd a corner Sea View , and are overlooking the gardens quite lovely. The Reception This smells amazing the aroma fills the hotel with a sensual , calming fragrance, we arrived later than planned yesterday evening and were greeting with a choice drink which was most welcome. Checkin was very easy via the hotel App for a couple in their 60,s it was a dream. The Hotel is not too big and day one we entered the Top pool this is one of three at ANO Bar at midday to find beds available , the pool was not busy and drinks for all inclusive are served to your sun bed if wished or pool if taking a dip , health and safety depicts plastic cups however these aided keeping the drinks cold. Staff are friendly and professional , evening one I met the lady Manager who offered an overview of the hotel ,which adds to the experience. Food is fabulous something for everyone its very well done lots of variety for all , suggest if you like olives you will love the sundried they are great! We ordered a wonderful bottle of Greek wine to accompany our evening meal as the all inclusive offer was not to our taste we like a robust red wine. Would we come again , omg yes, love it!"
