Lovely hotel set on the edge of the very pretty old town of Rethymno. Staff were lovely. The pool was very nice, with sunny and shady areas along with table and chairs for relaxing at or having very reasonably priced drinks and snacks from the bar. Plenty of sunbeds in May, height of summer maybe more trickier. We had a nice room with a balcony overlooking the pool. The room had a small fridge too. There is a supermarket across the road where we brought water and a few refreshments for sitting out on the balcony with. The bed was 2 singles pushed together but as it had a mattress topper, you didn't notice. it was very comfortable. We had a bath with a shower in it. Breakfast was ok, with a variety of foods. The old town is beautiful and this is a great base to explore it and pick out one of the many mouthwatering restaurants, all very reasonably priced - however, be careful around the 'harbour' restaurants (by the lighthouse) - they are very pushy and clever, and we ended up somehow purchasing a fish dish, only to find out, when the bill came, it was 85 euros, the whole meal was 124 euros (most of our other meals were around 40-50 euros) - even better - just buy a drink - but check the price first! The Castle Fortezza is worth a look around. As it was May, there were not too many spare 'books' by the hotel lift, however, we found the Old Bookshop in the town which sold second hand books - a saviour! We did spend one day at the beach, it was around a 10-15 walk. Where we sat, you didn't pay for the sunloungers but you brought a drinks from the restaurant behind - again very reasonably price. the beach was very clean and sandy. We visited in early May and would have like to have done a couple of trips but they didn't start until around the middle of May. Would definitely recommend Hotel Fortezza.
Would have been nice to have had tea/coffee in the room. The air con was above the bed (rather than opposite it) which was quite noisy the couple of times we used it in May - maybe if its on all the time you get used to it?

This is our 4th visit to the Hotel Fortezza and once again it didn't disappoint. The room, bar and breakfast room were excellent and the hotels location with respect to restaurants is superb. Available parking opposite the hotel is a bonus and is at reasonable charge. Finally all staff are friendly and couldnt be more helpful.

The location is perfect on the edge of the old town. All the staff were cheerful and friendly and responded to requests swiftly. The beds are comfortable, and the air conditioning is quiet and efficient. They even provided a breakfast bag for an early start to the airport.
The room we had faced the road and was noisy at times in the early hours with inconsiderate people talking loudly as they walked by, and loud music from cars. I would choose a pool view next time. Tea and coffee making facilities would have been nice.

The hotel staff were so friendly and made us feel so welcome. They booked us 2 rooms that couldn't be better for us and my mother. The breakfast was very good and constantly restocked, so it was always fresh. The communal areas were lovely and comfortable to sit in during the day. The hotel is just the right size making it feel homely and so clean.
We arrived late and would have loved a cup of tea, which we had to go out for. Tea making facilities would be have been great. Also walk in shower would have been easier than over the bath showers, and a little safer for older people.

Amazing location - you’re in amongst the old town in seconds and on the beach in minutes. Fantastic for parking - there is a private car park just opposite and even in high season the guys there will get you a space sorted. The room was really clean and every room had a balcony. Pool is a good size and temperature!

This our 4th visit to the Fortezza and as previously we were welcomed by fantastic staff. Hotel is perfectly situated within the old town, handy for the nearby fantastic restaurants.
The room this time needed some improvement. The shower was situated at the tap end in the bath, however the screen was at the other end!!. This meant you needed to hold the shower head to have a shower, would have expected better. The airconditioning unit was extremely poor . The hotel requested you not to go below 23Deg C, however in the high heat this is not acceptable, you need to be down at 19deg C. Tried turning air con down however ineffective so had poor nights sleep.

Comfy bed, big balcony with view over the pool, mini fridge, air con, nice pool, quiet. Good breakfast with plenty of choice. Staff very friendly and accommodating.
Bathroom tiny. Taps in the wrong place on the side of the bath so kept getting bruises on my thighs every time I had a shower! A shower would have been better for the size of the bathroom. No working extractor fan so very hot in there with the door shut. No light over the dressing table.

Location is excellent 👌 bed is really comfy. Reception Staff very friendly. I would stay again. Supermarket across the road. Parking very close for 10 Euro a day.
Breakfast staff were grumpy. Orange juice was really sweet orange cordial horrible. But overall the breakfast was nice. The balconies has no divider so when someone is smoking it blows straight into other rooms. No facility in your room to make tea or coffee.
