Elina Hotel Apartments, Rethymno Overview
Elina Hotel Apartments is a 3-star hotel in Rethymno, Greece. Rated 8.2 out of 10 based on 54 guest reviews.
Elina Hotel Apartments is a 3-star base in Rethymno, Crete, suited to travellers who want independence without giving up on helpful service. Set on L. Kountouriotou Street, the property is a practical choice for exploring the city on foot, with Rethymnon Beach and the Fortezza Castle both within about 1.5–1.6 km. Guests who leave reviews often highlight the straightforward, family-friendly setup and the convenience of having free WiFi and a 24-hour front desk when plans shift. Many visitors also appreciate the outdoor pool during warmer days, especially for downtime between sightseeing or beach time. The express check-in and express check-out processes are repeatedly mentioned as making arrivals and departures smoother.
Because this is an apartment-style stay, it works well for families who prefer simple in-room routines, and for couples who like the flexibility of preparing light meals. The surrounding area supports active days: bicycle rentals are available nearby, and you can find hiking and biking trails as well as sailing and water-skiing options in the wider region. If you’re planning to spend time in Rethymno Old Town, you’ll be close enough to enjoy evening strolls and harbour views, while still having a quieter base to return to. Overall, with a guest rating of 8.2/10 from 54 reviews, Elina Hotel Apartments tends to appeal to travellers looking for comfortable, functional accommodation in a lively Cretan city.
