Hotel Aquila Rithymna Beach

We are still in the process of Aquila Rhithymnia beach as I write these lines. We ended up here because of the mostly positive reviews. Therefore the positive first: the hotel was already a bit older, but it has not lost at Charme. In southern countries are never the five stars, what a spoilt German expected. Here you can find one for Greece but adequate standard. The rooms are very clean and the daily room service used a lot of time, to maintain this condition. The whole area was very well-kept and there was nothing to complain about as good as. The hotel staff was without exception very friendly and left no wishes unfulfilled. The kitchen was outstanding variety, the variety and the quality of the offer is very satisfactory but, if a comparison with other five stars hotels don't should be employed. The (actually) quiet location right on the sea front completes the first positive impression from fast. Unfortunately, there are negative points: the public. Mostly Russian guests, but also many British determine the current time the picture (middle September). Both breakfast, as well as dinner are a raucous, esthetic-visual challenge. The atmosphere reminded us of a large cafeteria. Manners are hard to determine. So sit here many with elbows on the table, the head supporting or face almost directly in the soup. Children without any parents spit them. At the buffet there was a crowd, that you feel like you're in the middle of hundreds, greedy zappel nThe maggots occurs. With the fingers of the condition of the food 'worn tomb ALM' order then in the nose to drill (no joke) and the neighboring food to choose. Following almost perverse overloaded plates to find the way to the tables, to be up to then wait a spurned decoration of the left everything speeded on the disposal by the overtaxed staff and making loud noises for a maximum of one metre stack, amongst others, those guests. A large number of tischanweisern leads to queue waiting in food guests daily changing tables, without annoying regardless of the aforementioned 'jeeps 'neighbors or after 21:00 o' clock, killing screaming kids. You wouldn't wine for a fair but under these circumstances not justified price of at least 25 euros per bottle would probably be consumed obvious. The request, one of the quite attractive effective restaurants within the hotel area to visit down to 'experience' expecting at the lack of willingness to zero. Another, albeit at least partially yield cash drawback is the evening entertainment by Bon air speeds-combo or CD-DJ. 24 o'clock you have to listen to quite a racket, the one with the home garden hose end. The subsequent nights sleep in on very soft mattresses, the guarantee a restless sleep mercilessly nachfedernd at the partners and the participation in any form of insomnia. Outside the extensive hotel area you will find along the road a few stores, several junk shops with the compulsory counterfeiting and several fur shops. A car you can also rent (cheaper than in the hotel) and a motorcycle rental (Enduros up to a maximum of 650 CC, technical condition generally acceptable) No 200 meters away. Only in the evenings, the 'leisure' to the left. All 15 meters to cope with one gebetsmühlenartigen ' no thanks 'against the pushy tout the local dining. All in all, however, we have our decision to get to Crete, but we didn't regret it. If you have a rental car/motorcycle/s and one or the other time away from the crowds go out to eat, can go and have a nice vacation-provided you can bear it, that the actual Rhithymnia beach pearls before the Säuen land. If we are to be here come back again? Quite sure. PS: due to the flight times the room for a shower in the afternoon four hours longer be used, that is the 'small' extra charge of 60, -€ no problem. A further hour increased subscriptions to this 80, -€.'
