Lato Hotel

Hôtel de charme (jardin) à 15 mn à pieds du centre-ville, donc au calme. Petite chambre très simple, dommage que la clim soit en supplément. Piscine agréable, personnel serviable, bon petit déjeuner.

Very nice family hotel. Very, very clean and lovely people. Close to the beach and only 15 minutes walk to the center. Have visit lot of hotels in this place, but this one is tehe best. For sure we will come back. Breakfast is very nice, not to much.

What not to say about this little Gem of a hotel. Family run, quaint place to relax and unwind. Breakfast only, but wow those lovely ladies make the best jams, honey, and cakes. Beautiful selection of fresh meat n fruits, choice of eggs. All to eat on the Beautiful patios. Rooms are very nice and clean. And serviced every day. Pool is small, but very adequate and you're never without a sun lounger. Jeanette the lovely lady who takes care of the bar side is an absolute asset the hotel. Best happy hours I've ever spent. She's friendly, funny and makes you feel special. We will be going back if there's room for us. It gets booked up very quickly. Xxx

Found the hotel quiet & relaxing. Rooms I thought were basic but pefectly adequate. After touring other islands we found the breakfast was the best, catering for every nationality so well done there. Staff were very friendly, got to say a big thank you to Jeanette who was great fun & a fountain of knowledge for us & cooked great lunch. Pool didn't get crowded & plenty of sun beds. It is a 15/20 min stroll into town with a mostly level walk. Didn't like the 1st restaurant to the left. A small quiet beach 10 mins turning left out of the hotel. Only sour note is paying for air con, should be included in the price.

Just spent a very enjoyable week at this friendly hotel. Room 208 was clean, had a comfortable bed, loads of storage, very efficient shower and a fantastic view of the bay. Special thanks to the staff who really seemed to want our stay to be special. Nicos looked after us at the bar before bed, Jeanette made great cocktails, generally kept us entertained and gave useful advice on the local area. Sally kept everything running smoothly at breakfast and is doing a great job looking after poorly local cats. The cheerful ladies in the kitchen made sure that breakfast was different every day with their tasty homemade pastries, jams and more. The garden is well tended with a variety of plants and trees. The pool is warm, never crowded, always with spare sunbeds in the shade and sun. Thanks also to our cleaner who kept our room spotlessly clean. All in all a great little hotel. On the down side, it is quite a walk into Agios Nikolaos...I would say closer to half an hour than 15 minutes. Especially in the heat. The sunbeds on the nearest beach are expensive and it is quite noisy and crowded. Though you can swim closer. The first part of the walk is on a narrow uneven pavement by a busy road. Not ideal at night. It would be good if the hotel sold big packs of water as they are very heavy on a hot day. Our check in experience was efficient but not particularly welcoming. However we would still thoroughly recommend the Lato and its lovely staff.

loverly little hotel very quiet but only 15 mins to town centre and just 10 mins to amoodi beach.With only 30 odd rooms it was like having a private house.The staff were all very friendly and always helpful.The rooms were small but had everything you needed,the only downside was the fridge was on it's last legs as it put out more heat than cold but it did take creases out of the clothes that were hung above it. breakfast was good with hot food and cold meats as well as home made cakes,but woe betide anyone who did'nt return thier tray to the bar.

Quite simply a lovely hotel. Friendly, spotlessly clean and relaxed, it's well located for all the amenities of Agios Nikolaios but with a sandy beach close by for those who don't want to walk too far. We took our teenage daughters and they loved it too. Nice pool, delicious breakfast and welcoming staff. Thank you for looking after us.

Like going home every time I visit. Spotlessly clean, staff can't do enough for you. Jeanette should be a national treasure. Already looking forward to next year. Five minutes from beach, and a lovely 20 minute walk into town. Plenty of Tavernas and eateries to choose from. The Asteria is my people watching place.

My first visit to Crete and stay at the Lato Hotel. Could not have picked a better location. Close to the bay, beach and shops. The rooms are cleaned daily and the beds and towels changed every couple of days (special mention to Elsa who works super hard, as do all the staff there). The grounds of the hotel evoke a peaceful atmosphere even though the hotel is on a busy road (which did not bother me at all). Breakfast is amazing! From fruit and yoghurt to omelettes. Thank you Lato Hotel for a wonderful two weeks! See you next year.
