Rethymno Youth Hostel

This is one of the best hostels that you can stay in. If you want to stare at your phone and ignore your fellow travellers, don't stare here. If you are into meeting and hanging out with like minded interested and interesting people then this hostel is for you. Great communal vibe, helpful and friendly staff, clean and spacious bathrooms , fully functional kitchen, great location and all round top place to stay.

It's located in the old town of Rethymno, 10 minutes walk from the bus station. All around it, supermarkets, chemists and the farmer's market on Thursday. What to say about the hostel ? It is very well appointed, organised and clean. But what makes the difference is the atmosphere, I was there last year, came back this year and will come back again. People return simply because there is a warmth, a real feeling of friendship. Thank you again Joseph, Nikos, Tristan, Eloise, Maira and Estefania !

Ich habe vier wunderbare Tage im Youth Hostel Rethymno erlebt. Mit Tristan und Joseph habe ich zwei der drei mitarbeitenden kennen gelernt. Beide sind Perlen. Maira ist eine junge Frau. Sie reinigt vorübergehend. Geraucht wurde eher viel. Aber das war im Aussenbereich.Die familiäre Atmosphäre, die guten Gespräche, der herrliche Innenhof waren wunderbar.Ein herzliches Dankeschön!

Das Rethymno Youth Hostel ist das BESTE Hostel, in dem ich je war. Der Besitzer Tristan macht einen fantastischen Job und stellt jeden neuen Gast persönlich vor. Außerdem kennt er alle Namen mit Herkunftsland von den Gästen. Das Hostel ist super zentral in der Altstadt gelegen und alles ist fußläufig erreichbar. Es ist super sauber und der Zusammenhalt ist großartig! Wie eine große Familie! Ich empfehle wirklich jedem hier hinzukommen. Einfach Großartig!!! Ich komme auf jeden Fall wi...

I stayed there for one night, as I was transferring to Chania. Location is ideal, but the social atmosphere is dead, compared to where I was in Plakias for example. Stuff is friendly and there is a map for key restaurants and sightseeings.

It's a great place not only because of the location and facilities, the terrace, the atmosphere, but above all because of the friendliness of the wo work there. Absolutely recommend!

I really have to say to have that the Rethymno Youth Hostel gave me one of the best hostel experiences I've ever made. It's a cosy place that invites to hang out and socialize in the common areas, always kept clean and tidy with very welcoming, suportive and fun staff. When I come to Crete I really enjoy coming back here :)

Excellent experience at this hostel. It's right in the old town among the beautiful streets and the rooms are clean and nice. The best part are the three hosts though, they are walking encyclopedias for Rethymno and are really friendly. And you can say they genuinely want you to enjoy your time in Crete. Tristan has fabulous recommendations for restaurants (many suitable for going out on a date too), gorges, and beautiful spots in the city. Nikos and his brother gave me some great family run and...
