Casa dei Delfini

I have been fortunate to stay in some beautiful hotels, but I have to say that Casa dei Delfini is up there with the best. Located in a fantastic spot in the heart of the Old Town, this wonderful building has been sympathetically renovated and restored into a stunning hotel that provides all the modern conveniences without compromising the beauty of the original historic building. It is stunning. Katerina and Kon, the two charming hosts, are on hand to help with any enquiries and they take the comfort and happiness of their guests very seriously. They even happily put up with my dreadful Greek, although they both speak excellent English! A lovely Cretan style breakfast is provided. I will be back! Highly recommended.

We stayed here for 5 nights and we are so very happy with our decision! Extremely clean rooms and an amazing host! Located in the heart of old town, everything is near and also very easy to find parking space for your car! We will definitely return! Thank you for everything!

We stayed at Casa deo Delfini for several nights and we had an incredible experience! Konstantino, the hotel owner, was so nice and extremely helpful! He suggested several places for us to eat and tourist attractions to see, and they did not disappoint. The rooms and the architecture of the hotel were beautiful! Loved hearing the history of how it was built in the Venetian times. Everything was extremely clean and tidy. Breakfast was also great! Highly recommend 🙂

This beautiful characterful building is in the heart of the old town which is entirely pedestrianised. As a result the four of us (in two separate rental cars) all struggled to find parking outside of the pedestrian-only zone. So we were all a bit stressed by the time we finally found parking spots then trundled our bags from the cars to the hotel. But it was well worth the effort. Our rooms were gorgeous, breakfasts were a delight, and Kon & Katerina lovely hosts. Although located in the heart of the old town it is still quiet at night but only a short walk to all Rethymnon has to offer. It is a lovely city and should not be missed and Casa dei Delfini is the icing on the cake (or more appropriately the honey on the baklava!).

The room was simply amazing! The building itself is of unique venetian architecture, in the heart of the old town. The location is perfect to explore the old town of Rethymnon and close to bars, taverns, restaurants, local shops etc. We opted for the breakfast option and we highly recommend it. Overall, we had an amazing time there, the owners are really friendly, kind and helpfull.

Hello Casa Dei Delfini. I stayed with my partner for 9 nights between July 24 and August 02. We had no problems during this time. This very old building in the Venetian style has been magnificently restored. When we arrived at the hotel, we were warmly welcomed by Katerina. During our stay, both Katerina and her son Konstantinos helped us in every way and gave us a lot of useful information about places to visit. We stayed in room number 4. The bed in the room with a very large area was quite big and comfortable. The kitchen had enough equipment but we never used it. The bathroom was both spacious and had all the equipment. We also had a small balcony which was enough for smoking. The breakfast was also very sufficient and satisfying for us. A big thank you to Elena. She prepared wonderful things in the kitchen and welcomed us with her smiling face every morning. Thank you Elena. The hotel is within walking distance of everywhere in old Rethymno. You can find cafes, restaurants, souvenirs. As a result, it is a place where you can stay with peace of mind. If we come back, we will choose Casa dei Delfini again. Thank you Katerina and Konstantinos. You are doing a great job. See you again.

Charming boutique hotel in Rethymno's old town, offering vintage charm and a prime location. The penthouse with a private balcony is exceptional, and the breakfast was great, adding to the experience. Friendly staff provide excellent dining recommendations, making our visit to Crete truly memorable. Highly recommended!

We stayed there for a few days and loved the experience - everything was exactly as described. The architecture of the building is amazing. Common areas are very well maintained and not crowded. Our room was clean and tidy at all times. Two of the highlights were the incredible staff and the breakfast - fresh and healthy. Two things to note: (i) WiFi was a little slow and (ii) the nearest parking place is about eight minutes walk. These are expected because the Old Town does not allow cars and it is a vacation vs business hotel. Even though everything is within walking distance, the closest beach (excluding the port) is about 15-20 minutes away. This is because the location of the building is on the limit of the tourist/residential area. Overall, it was an incredible experience and we would go again.
