Summer Lodge Maleme Crete 25/6 to 2/7 2019

Posted 3 Jul 2019 on Hotels
Excellent budget hotel with good sized pool,very clean with very pleasant and helpful staff,Vassilis & family couldn't do enough for you.Plenty of positives here with negatives being very patchy WI FI reception,also room we stayed in no ground level socket for kettle not practical,also no cutlery or crockery provided which is very surprising as this is primarily a self catering accommodation.That said,would definitely stay here again and would recommend to others, other point a good 500M to main resort area.

Excellent friendly family run small hotel, lovely location close to beach with lovely pool if sea a bit choppy. Cleanliness excellent. Vassilis and Rebecca always helpful. Bus stops nearby to get anywhere you want in the region.

Sehr herzliche Betreiber. Das Zimmer war wirklich sehr gemütlich. Jeden Morgen konnten wir uns direkt auf die Terrasse setzen. Bei Fragen wurden uns wirklich sehr gute Tipps gegeben und auch Services sind sehr günstig. Ich vermisse den Ort jetzt schon sehr. Und ich werde alles daran setzen,die Summer Lodge wieder zu besuchen

Mysigt familjeägt hotell.

Posted 15 Sep 2019 on Hotels
Trevlig familj som äger och sköter hotellet. Mysigt. Charmigt. Stranden nära men EJ sol å badvänlig. Bussar går ofta in mot Platanias och Chania. Beroende av bussen. Dålig städning, en gång på en vecka. Annars toppen. Prisvärt!! Lugnt å skönt. Området heter Pirgos å ligger utf själva centrala Platanias m alla dess restauranger å bad.

Sängarna var väldigt hårda och det är väldigt lyhört så man hör biltrafiken väldigt bra då det ligger brevid en stor väg.

Buon albergo, prezzi modici, evitate la colazione

Posted 29 Jun 2016 on Hotels
Bell'albergo dotato di piscina. Impresa familiare, tutti gentilissimi specialmente la signora Athena, prodiga di consigli anche su dove andare a mangiare ( consigliata la Black Lanter a 300m, ottimo cibo) Manca il condizionatore ( viè un ventilatore tipo quelli da tavolo fissato alla parete). Camera ampia, letti abbastanza comodi, frigorifero. Bagno un po' piccolo se confrontato con la camera e lavandino piccolino. Colazione a parte costo 4 euro per qualche fetta di pane, un po' di marmellata ed un caffè filtrato all'americana che per un italiano equivale a sciacquatura di piatti, semplicemente imbevibile. Evitatela Tutto sommato un esperienza positiva visto il prezzo. PS: il luogo è un po' isolato, se non avete l'auto non so se vi è lì vicino una fermata dei mezzi pubblici.

Thank you for your preference to the Summer Lodge during your recent visit to Crete. Guest satisfaction at the lowest possible prices is our primary concern and it pleases us to learn that the surroundings with our swimming pool and friendliness of our family members & staff lead you to share your kind comments. However, we would like to note that it is clearly written in our website that Summer Lodge is proudly participating as active member in the GreenLeaders eco program introduced by TripAdvisor and therefore we have installed a cooling fan in each bedroom instead of the energy consuming A/C Continental breakfast consists of freshly brewed coffee (unlimited servings) freshly squished orange juice, toasted sandwiches filled with ham & cheese, fresh bread & biscuits served with butter & choice of jam & marmalade and all these with just 4 EURO. Above description and price are displayed clearly in front of our breakfast area. We thank you again for your valuable feedback as comments such as yours allow us to address certain areas in need of improvement. We do hope you choose to let us try and restore your faith in our guesthouse by returning again. Yours sincerely, Vassilis Hatzimihail
