We came across Orestis quite by chance on Trip Advisor and we're so glad we did. Both the apartments and the village location are lovely, hospitable, peaceful and incredibly welcoming. Being set on a hillside, the views to the hills and coast on one side, and to the mountains and Chania on the other, are an absolute treat; quite idyllic.... More

Orestis is situated in the village of Ano Stalos, a short drive from the sea. From the hotel, views exist of both sea and mountains. The views are spectacular both at day and night. The hotel has a set of apartments in a tranquil pool and garden setting. Each apartment has two separate balconies facing both sea and countryside. Accommodation... More

We stayed three days at Hotel Orestis in September 2012. The first impression when we arrived is that, while it is so close to Hania and the very touristic coast line, the village where it's situated, Ano Stalos, is a quite traditional place where you can still see locals sitting in front of their homes and talking to the neighbours....

We stayed 11 days at the Hotel Orestis, three adults and two children and it was our second holiday there. Hotal Orestis is located in a nice and quiet area, where the relaxed life is lived and not overrun by European tourists. The town is called Pano Stalos and there are beside the hotel three wonderful tavernas where one is... More

We stayed two adults and two children at Orestis Hotel two weeks July 2012 and loved every moment. The owner and host, Platon, is a very nice and helpful man. He helped us hiring a car on fine conditions, he knows so many places to go in Crete and restaurants to visit. The hotel is top quality, and the apartments... More

We have just returned from 2 weeks at Orestis hotel/apartment. It is wonderful. The owner is extremely helpful and kind. We were very grateful for all the time he spent giving us useful advice on best places to see in the area. He also arranged car hire for us at a reasonable price. The apartment had everything we needed and... More

This was, I think, our 5th vist to Platon & Maria's lovely appartments in 7 years, the first being in 2005. Harry Miller has said it all so my comments will be brief. We feel very relaxed in Pano Stalos, conversations with Platon over a coffee are wideranging, informative and generally wonderful. Platon & Maria always treat us very well.... More

This is the fourth time that my wife and I have stayed at Orestis Apartments since 2001. For the last three visits we have stayed for a month. The apartments are perfect for couples and there is a further couch/bed for another adult or two smaller children. The apartments are modern, open plan with a small kitchen and washing area... More

Orestis Hotel is a beautiful place to stay with very clean, well-maintained apartments with excellent views over sea and countryside. There is a lovely swimming pool at the hotel and the seaside is also quite near. Tavernas in the village of Pano Stalos serve superb food and have a more authentic feel than some of those on the seafront. Platon... More
