This was our preferred hotel in Crete. Great area, spacious rooms with all the amenities necessary and attentive staff. We were upgraded to a 4-person apartment with what seemed like the BEST shower on the island. We had a car, which was super-convenient to check out Rethymnon's and Chania's attractions. Axos is very accessible, there are supermarkets and great bakeries... More

Very good value for money. Friendly staff. One minus to cleaning. A BIG plus point for a large balcony. More

We returned to the Axos after twelve years to find it just as good if not better than before, still run by the same lovely family who could not be more helpfull and friendly, it has a great location just a short walk from the beach, shops and many restaurants, the rooms are nice, clean tidy with tv, a/c, fridge...

Received a warm and friendly welcome from one of the owners called Manos. We found the staff we met to be very helpful and informative. More

We spent days searching for a holiday, not really being package holiday kind of people, we were a bit nervous! The friendly welcome on arrival from Manos (one of the owners) was the start of many reasons we loved Hotel Axos. The room was great, clean, comfy bed & nice balcony. Fridge/freezer & hob included. There was a nice pool... More

We stayed here from the 26/8 to the 9/9 2011. Overall the hotel is lovely with a central location in Platanes, handy for the restaurants, the beach (and Lidl!) Delightful clean uncrowded pool with convenient bar facilities, and the bar staff were very pleasant. Pleasant room with a wonderful balcony overlooking the pool with some music noise at night until... More
