Girogiali Hotel

The hospitality of the place is truly genuine, you feel at home instantly. No matter what, they help you out. A very quiet place at the beginning of the beach, you can easily relax at the balcony with just the waves sounding. No rush in the morning to get ont of the (free) sunbeds. We went for several walks up and down the beach and no other hotel felt better than Girogialis. The other hotels are more classic tourist places with a lot of people in the crowded sunbeds. Room with big bed, excellent air conditioning, bathroom is fine. Calm. Relax. Enjoy the beach just a staircase down from the pool area. We also had a kind surprise from Mike to celebrate our special occasion. So touching! We can’t wait to return. Love this place!!!

Vi bodde i ett superior rum med pentry i två veckor. Det var ett supermysigt hotell, bara några steg ner till en fin, lugn sandstrand och en ren fin pool med poolbar. Lugnt läge precis innan den livligare delen av gatan börjar. Bra kommunikationer till Chania, busstation nära hotellet. Jättetrevlig och hjälpsam personal. Rent och fräscht rum med sköna sängar. Vad jag förstod under vår vistelse så beror nog trivseln på vilket rum man får, vi fick inte ett rum som vette mot vägen men förstod av de som bodde i dessa att det var väldigt mycket ljud från vägen. Hotellet var väldigt lyhört överlag men gästerna var tysta och lugna så det var inget som störde. Det som jag personligen tyckte var negativt var pentryt. Det fanns bara vattenkokare och kaffebryggare och ett kylskåp. Ingen kokplatta, vilket var konstigt, för de hade köksfläkt. Bestick, tallrikar och glas fanns till två personer. Överlag är vi jättenöjda med vår resa hit och skulle absolut åka tillbaka.

This is a lovely hotel. The owners are so nice and made us feel very welcome! It was at the end of the season and we got three lovely rooms with balconies next to eachother, with sea-view. One minute from the room to the lovely Kato Stalos beach. The bed was good, and the air-condition very quiet. We had a lovely holiday at this hotel and would highly recommend it. No noise from the busy road behind the hotel. We changed hotel during our stay in Crete and fully experienced how much it means to have a mangagement who cares for their guests. We were leaving for the airport late in the afternoon, and got to keep our rooms till we left.

Me and my girlfriend had the most pleasant week long stay! The hotel was fantastic as well as the staff. The location was absolutely perfect, as it is situated right at the beach and in the middle of a multitude of stores! Lot of delicious places for food nearby aswell. We will definitely be coming back!

Realy good hotel - direktly at the Beach. Clean rooms, and a very friendly staff. We loved staying there, and will come back

I stayed here with my son last week (Oct 21) and we loved it. It was exactly as described and looked just like the photos. The room was spotless and very comfortable with nice fluffy pillows. I asked for some extra blankets as I was a little chilly on an October night and a couple of hours later they were bought straight to my door so I was impressed with the service. They were very friendly and made time to speak with us when we walked past the reception in the morning. Our apartment had great views of the sea and we could lie in bed and listen to the sea. As I am recovering from a brain injury, this was the perfect place for some respite. Thank you so much and we will definitely stay again!

We stayed in this hotel/apartment for 10 days in July and we really liked the location. We booked a room with partial sea view on the first floor and we loved waking up and having breakfast looking at the sea from our balcony. The apartment is equipped with a kettle, some cutlery, (handy for when you get takeaway food) a wine opener, fridge that has a freezer section in case you buy ice creams, hairdryer, tv, and chairs & a small table on the balcony. Beds are ok and the room is a nice size, the only thing that could be better is the bathroom. Every time we showered the water would go outside the shower, which is a bit small especially if you are above 6 ft tall. The hotel has a pool and you can use the sun loungers if you spend at least 6€ at the bar, ( they have fresh juices so we didn’t mind it at all ) also the beach is right in front of the hotel. The location of the hotel is just perfect, close to 2 supermarkets and also to a friendly fast food ( healthy one) that makes amazing gyros for 3.50€ and many others delicious things at very good prices. Our favourite restaurant for romantic dinners nearby is KriKri, has a sea view and their meat and fish platters are very very good! I am really happy we picked this hotel, the staff was super friendly and helped us a lot, they booked taxis for us and called the ferry company to help us with our tickets and also arranged other tours to see Elafonisi and Gramvousa. Most of all we loved passing through the reception to see and pet their super cute dog Bobby. We already can’t wait to go back.

I find this extremely funny how my stay at Girogiali was not what we booked and yet when asked to leave a rating online, giving them ‘3 star’ didn’t cut it. This is not the type of behavior one should receive when leaving a review. I’m sorry but if you can’t handle the feedback then get someone else to do it. This was extremely unacceptable and it felt like I was dealing with a child! Email after email just because they were not happy with a review. Incredibly unprofessional to say the least!
