Palazzino di Corona

Frommer's Review

Setting a new benchmark for stylish accommodations in Rethymnon, this boutique hotel is in a centuries-old Venetian mansion restored with taste and restraint, using natural and original building materials complemented by fine old furnishings. Each of the 21 rooms is named after one of the Greek gods or goddesses and each has some distinctive configuration and appearance; size varies considerably but all have comfortable beds and private bathrooms. A courtyard offers a delightful place to retreat from your city walks or wider excursions -- plus a small pool in which to cool off. Its location offers closeness to the old town's center while providing a quiet night, but there is one drawback for some: There is no elevator and some rooms are on what Americans call a third floor; however, there is a room for those limited in their mobility. Definitely only for those who appreciate subdued luxury and are willing to spend this kind of money for such an environment.
