Libyan Princess

We are approaching our final day of our 2 week stay at the hotel . The hotel is a modern exceptionally clean and well run hotel with polite friendly staff . For our preference although well equipped the rooms at only 20sq m are too small for a long stay, I would say 3 to 5 nights would be the optimum stay here . There is a definite safety issue that needs addressing . Earlier in our stay I slipped a fell down a flight of marble stairs which were wet badly injuring my back , knee and foot which has turned black and I still cannot get a shoe on . We have had no form of apology or acceptance of liability from the hotel and no offer of anything as an apology other than bags of ice which is pretty disgusting given it’s ruined at least 3 days of our holiday . I’ve told them they need a warning sign at the top of the steps and a handrail on either side as a minimum , will they do it ? I doubt it . As these showers and toilets are frequently used by pool users they should ensure periodic cleaning and drying of these steps also They say mine has been the first accident of this kind which I find hard to believe Very ready to head back home

We loved our first stay at the Libyan Princess. A fantastic breakfast, one of the best on our trip, a lovely pool, spacious rooms, and a perfect location. The staff were always friendly and helpful as well. We will certainly return one day!

Lovely hotel. Been twice before. Glad to come back. It’s still as good. Friendly staff. Nice room with patio areas looking over the pool and over the road. Lovely breakfast with loads of choice. Just wish the cups were bigger; they’re more designed for espresso and slop if filled. Convenient for the town, bars and restaurants, but also just out of it. Quiet. Good long pool and had no trouble getting a sunbed; could have nipped over to the beach otherwise. Good base for the area. We also went on a super boat trip to the beautiful Elafonisi. Lots of reasonable restaurants within easy walking. Am sure we’ll be back again.

Excellent choice for stay in Palaiochora. The quality of the whole facilities is very good. They offer a fine atmosphere and the pricing was reasonable. The breakfast buffet was rich and full of good tastes. The Staff was always smiling and helpful and made the experience even more peasant. We recommend the place to solo, couple or family and we will definitely get back again !!

Stayed 3 nights in a second floor pool view room: great modern room with balcony, good a/c and waterpressure. Good beds. Breakfast with lots of variety. Friendly staff, great information. Hotel organized visit in shuttle van to Elafonisi at the end of the afternoon which was better than going with ktel bus, because arriving later, everyone is already leaving and you still have lots of sun, can walk and swim without hundreds/thousands of people. More expensive than ktel of course, but very much worth it!

Small well designed hotel on the main road into Paleochora. My room was spacious and very comfortable. Pleasant pool area. The breakfast is especially good with a wide range of local dishes. Despite previous comments excellent coffee is included together with fresh orange juice. I enjoyed the friendly atmosphere of this family run hotel. No rowdy or uncivilised guests during my week here and it would be difficult to improve on my stay here.

During the last four years we have done two tours of Crete and on both occasions we have spent a few nights at this Hotel. The Hotel is extremely efficiently run and the staff are most helpful. Simply the best Hotel that we have stayed at in Crete.

Very good plentiful breakfast

Wonderful place. The breakfast buffet is amazing! Fresh, delicious, variety….
