Agneta welcomes you warmly to this small, family-run hotel complete with a swimming pool. Fresh fish dishes feature regularly on the menu.

The bright, modern Hotel Megim has simple but comfortable rooms with balconies and views over the sea. The dining-room is painted white to enhance the Mediterranean feel, and there are tables and chairs set outside on a shaded terrace. Dinner is included for your first night here and there is an ample choice of restaurants in Paleochora.

This is a pleasant little hostel with pantiled roof, run by the friendly Eftichis Papagrigorakis. All the rooms have a balcony with a view. The hotel has no restaurant. Breakfast is served in a restaurant along the boulevard. For dinner there are several places to eat in the village, mainly along the sea-front.

This relaxing spa hotel makes an ideal base from which to explore western Crete at leisure – and the perfect place to return to after a rewarding day in the hills. Set in the middle of an olive grove, the hotel has been carefully converted from a 200-year-old farmhouse and affords expansive views across the rolling hills to the sea. There is a pervading atmosphere of peace and calm; from your initial friendly welcome, you will find that the emphasis is on relaxation and rejuvenation. Restful seating areas have been created in the lush gardens amid fragrant herbs and towering mulberry and lemon trees, and, for that little extra luxury, you are invited to enjoy the hotel's marble Turkish bath, the cleansing sauna, a therapeutic body massage and the refreshing swimming pool. In keeping with the rest of the hotel, the restaurant uses only wholesome, local, fresh produce.

Athens is an eclectic, thrilling city, a jumble of ancient sites - not least the Acropolis, with its views across the city to the Aegean Sea - Byzantine churches, Neoclassical buildings and bustling street bazaars.
You will receive a warm welcome at the family-run Philippos Hotel. It is located in a quiet residential neighbourhood below the Acropolis, making it an ideal base from which to explore both the ancient sites and the modern side of this vibrant city. The bedrooms are equipped with air-conditioning, a minibar and satellite television.
