My wife and I arrived to Alianthos Garden on Sunday Sept 2nd just after midday. It was about a 90 minute drive from Chania Int'l Airport (CHQ). We were amazed with the property as we were driving up the main road. Beautiful beaches, quiet and peaceful surroundings. We checked in promptly and were given a room, not exactly the view... More

We only stayed here one night while travelling round but I have to say it ticked all the right boxes. Immaculately clean rooms, very friendly staff, good buffet breakfast included in the room price. The pool area was clean and attractive, though you can't swim until 10 am when breakfast finishes (I would have liked an early morning swim). I... More

We spent a 10-day family holiday in the hotel. Generally, we were really satisfied - a cosy, modern, middle-sized hotel with family atmosphere, friendly and helpful staff, comfortably furnished rooms, clean swimming pool. Also the food was all right, generous buffet for breakfast and dinner, including fresh fruit and vegetables. We were lucky to be alocated the rooms overlooking a... More

The hotel itslef was nicer than the others in Plakias. The rooms were basic but the beds were comfortable. Shower was ok, could have been better. Breakfast was decent, many choices, good yogurt, fruit etc. We did not enjoy the dinners, too much basic buffet food, was plentiful but not great quality. Hotel staff was nice and helpful, spoke good... More

This being my very first time visiting Greece, I was very excited (despite the current Euro crisis). After hours being lost on the mountains, my parents and I were eventually shown the correct route and booked immediately into the Alianthos Gadren Hotel. My father sorted out the room including breakfast and dinner (on a special offer at that time, considering... More

After a somewhat adventurous journey from Rethymnon we arrived at Plakias. The Alianthos Garden (4 star) is pretty much the first subtantial accommodation you come to as you enter Plakias. For us this was a relief. Being early July and technically just outside the school holiday period we were able to secure a double room without any difficulty complete with... More
