The coolest place in town. Yes this youth hostel could be your next home in your vacation. This family-run hostel was established in 1976 and is situated in the centre of the picturesque town of Rethymno. Entering from the street you will find a typical Venetian building with thick stone walls and wooden floors upstairs. Downstairs there is a beautiful patio surrounted by the green of our gardens for relaxation. In the evening most travellers gather for a drink (or two) on the hostel's patio to chill out, before starting the usual restaurant and bar hopping!!! The hostel enjoys easy access to both the bus station for inter-island travel and ferry port for boats to and from Piraeus. Centrally positioned on the island of Crete, travellers can use the hostel as a base for day trips to the most attractive sites of the island like the Samaria Gorge, Lake Kournas, Preveli beach, Falasarna, Elafonisi and the various historical and archaeological sites around.

Try in the heart of the old town...

If you do want beach and sand, but within a more or less walkable range of the “real Rethymno” and its centre and old town…
