Entering from the street you will find a typical Venetian building with thick stone walls and wooden floors upstairs.Downstairs there is a beautiful patio surrounded by the green of our gardens for relaxation.
If you use Rethymno hostel you'll have easy access to both the bus station for travel within the island, and the ferry port for boats to and from Piraeus.

In the evening most travelers gather for a drink ( or two ) on the hostel's patio to chill out, before starting the usual restaurant and bar hopping!!!

Stayed in Rethymno in this hostel for two nights, and would've stayed longer if I had the time! For only €10/night I had a simple bunk bed in a female dorm, but it was the friendly people staying and most amazing hospitable staff that makes your stay that extra bit special! I've stayed in plenty of hostels but this one tops the customer service!! Cheers Alex's and George!! :D

This is one of the nicest, cleanest hostels I've stayed in for years. The staff are really friendly and helpful. My original flight was cancelled, so I arrived a day later than my original booking in the middle of the night which was no problem when I arrived at the hostel. As a single, young woman travelling alone I can't agree with the previous review on this page. The male staff have been professional and in no way inappropriate towards me during my trip. I feel completely safe staying here and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this hostel to friends and any woman travelling alone. The location is great too.

we book for 2 night but we changed our mind spending just one night at the end. We didn´t get our money back but the guy told us we could come back here during our trip around Crete and don´t pay for that night. We didn´t come but at least we had that chance. Cheap place to stay if you go to Rethymo for one day. Close to the center many restaurants. If you go to Rethymo you can`t miss Kyria Maria and have rabbit. One of the best things we had during two weeks in Crete. 100% recommend. just go and try is even cheap. nice terrace just in the street.

oh my...i was just reading my diary and really got a nice feeling since i refreshed my memory as to what Rethymno Youth Hostel meant to me. First of all i must say that Crete is so beautiful...amazing sceneries, food, surfing, live music, prices, people...it is Credise (Crete + Paradise) This was my first time travelling by my self and i was not feeling 100% cool as in everything we do for the first time! The place even though it is in the center...it is so quiet & lovely! As soon as i arrived i felt closer to being 100% cool. I met amazing people...French (Artouros french guy playing baglamas...omg), Canadians, Icelanders. The place has 2 big balconies which are really nice since you meet people, even if you are the most closed person in the world. It feels as a home. Sasha and Manolis the boss are polite, nice & friendly human beings from day one to day five. "Sasha=Alexander welcomed me...a positive vibe emerged within me..." The bathrooms, beds where very good for what you pay...the omelette for 2 euros made by Sasha would make my day! Surely i will visit again soon...October when Crete is even nicer under the cloudy sky!:)

Rethymno youth hostel is so far the best hostel I have ever stayed in.Good location and near the beach! Nice,clean rooms and toilets.The hostel is newly renovated with new kitchen with BBQ in the garden which will be a great spot for people during the summer. The staff are always very friendly and helpful, if you need suggestions on where to go or what to do whether its about best beaches on Crete,the best bars or cheap taverns in the city ive always been recommended good places.All in all i cant find anything to complain about. Very happy with my stay!!

We had a lovely time at the youth hostel. This was made especially homely by our excellent hosts Tristan, Nikos, Joseph, Natalia, Raye and Fran. Made our visit to Rethymno very special. Great knowledge of the local area, restaurants and good suggestions on what to do. Was brilliant to meet so many different people and to be made to feel at home. Tristan hasn’t hosted a family before but did an excellent job.

I just spent 10 days at Rethymno Youth Hostel, but I have been there several times in the lapse of a decade. It's one of my fav hostels in Europe. There's a great vibe and it's perfectly located in the old town. The managers and the staff do a great job to make everyone feel like at home, and they also made great my experience. Thanks Nikos, Joseph, Tristan, Amas and Maya! (Ah: the most of the photos here on TripAdvisor are very old and do not represent the hostel anymore, since it has been rebuilt in these years).
