Ratings and reviews

The hotel seems a bit worn. If you want a quiet and relaxing holiday and perhaps are not very young, you should not choose this hotel. The music by the pool is very loud, and let's just say the music selection is very youthful. If you have a room facing the pool, the music can be heard clearly from 10 AM to 10-11 PM every day. We tried to address this, but we were not taken seriously. We have stayed at the hotel several times, but this was the last time. We are around 60 and generally quite up-to-date, but this was far beyond acceptable. Many agreed.

The hotel should not be 5 star, we would give it 3. Private pool very small also not secured so anybody can come in via terrace. I did not like bathroom not nice colours and it does not look like bathroom in 5 star hotel at all. Room itsepf was nice ,same sitting area in patio. Food ok but same all the time and nothing amazing but I was ok as I could always find things to eat. I did not like they did not have tea/ coffee at lunch and dinner time on the restaurant ( you had to go to reception or pool bar).location ok, good communication to chania by bus. Beach ok.
8.0 / 10.0
The big plus is friendly staff, good kitchen, value for money when on all inclusive. Otherwise, there are some things which need attention. That said, I would like to thank Louis the general manager for taking time to listen to what I had to say. By the way, the hotel group have another property that is the Galini Palace.

We had a fantastic stay in the hotel. Hotel is located 5 min of walk from the beautiful beach. Amazing service and friendly staff. An excellent choice of food served. Would decently recommended.

we were firstly offered a room in the depths of the hotel which was almost inaccesable with approx 20 steps we were then given a room which had no wardrobes no cupboards and no draw space and had to live out of our suitecase for the week the internal phone did not work at all there were no pluses at about this hotel and should never be rated as five star which we expected and think that you should send a rep for first hand experience

Gallini hotel was a nice stay.
The staff were really good - reception, dining room, and room service. They provided a really professional, and friendly atmosphere.
Special thanks to Sofia - customer relations Manageress. She helped us with tours, transfers, and good advice on excursions which we wholeheartedly appreciate.
Gallini provided us with an extremely relaxed vacation. Thank you

Property definitely not 5 star ! Many things not as expected after previous 5 star experiences! Pool was very small , made to seem mich bigger on advertising, surrounded by balconese beds which was intimidating! rooms alrhough clean were under equipped- no drawers ? Open wardrobe , no mirror above vanity table, although vanity stool was there ? Pool towel exchange in a basket in front of reception - very unsuitable and untidy! Bathroom areas around reception not checked and cleaned during the day - was needed. Entertainment was very poor - disappointed no Greek music, dancing.
Good points- breakfast buffet was plentiful and varied, cleaners worked hard , staff were generally very pleasant, although on checking out nobody thanked us for staying and basically ignored us , just chatting amongst themselves - topped off quite an underwhelming stay.

The property was nice as expected. All inclusive really wprth the price. Got an upgrade of the room for free.
The roim with the private sharing pool was very nice and furnished.
The hotel was massive and the amenties very nice.
Food was great with different options available.

Over all experience, it’s okay, the hotel is in need of refurbishment especially exteriors areas just some of the examples again, this might be a one off, but this is my personal experience no air condition on and off for 48 hours in temperatures, reaching 46c outside
No water running at times during my 5 day stay also there is charge for all and then refunded at the end of the stay example need towels €10 euro each need a extra key €10 euros never been charged in a 5 star hotel before ?
This hotel is more like a 3 star to
4 star at best
But staff was very helpful and polite. I think it’s just the rules for the hotel that have been put in place that had to follow, but they could not be so more to help you considering the circumstances.

6.0 / 10.0
The hotel was very cute and quite. Staff were very helpful and friendly. But this hotel for sure is not a five star as the hotel is very old and need refurbishment, also the food is not for a five star hotel, food options is very limited, i have been to many all inclusive hotels and never seen some thing like this.

Nice hotel, food very good, service great.
Not all facilities were open.
2.0 / 10.0
Initial reception was good. Disappointment upon entering the room. Wardrobe doors removed for some reason. Black grouting in shower compartment. Design of chair on veranda of pool access room was dangerous. decking was uneven and poor quality. loungers were old an not easily moved due to screw heads which had previously held some sort of foot to the lounger now digging into the wood of the decking.
The dining facilities were worse than a works canteen. An eating factory with no atmosphere, tables a metre from each other and a turnaround time for evening meal of 15 minutes. Awful. Not a one star experience. Can't imagine where 5* came from.
8.0 / 10.0
The hotel was lovely, nice peaceful, quiet atmosphere and a very relaxing stay! The amenities are great lots of different pools and chill out areas, we made us of the free gym too which had everything we needed. Food was nice would of liked a bit more of a variety though. Room was clean, nice welcome pack only issue was no instructions for the safe and the shower was in need of a bit of tlc (shower head wouldn’t stay up on the pole and there was no plug to run a bath). Otherwise a lovely, relaxing place with very welcoming, friendly staff. Would highly recommend.

It is a nice hotel but not very new and can do with better maintenence. Also the beach is far down hill and the shuttle service is horrible.
6.0 / 10.0
Paid for a double sea view room which was on the 5th floor at the front of the main hotel building so the room location and view could not have been better. Would not have been happy to have been in one of the annex buildings, including the one down near the beach. Also some 'land view' rooms look to be in disappointing locations.
Don't know where the 5 star claim comes from, this is a very average 3 star at best. Restaurant food also average and not particularly to UK tastes although always found something to eat. We experienced some illness during our stay and were a bit disappointed that hotels like this with a large self-service buffet style restaurant don't have a hand gel policy. Similarly they allow water fountains to be contaminated with guests refilling bottles directly from the nozzles.
Air-con in room worked only intermittently, servicing of rooms was a bit haphazard including toilet bin not being emptied on one occasion. Bottled water in room replenished, strangely, every third day.
Overall, had a decent week's weather (mid-May) which helped us enjoy our week in Crete, but won't be going back to either the Galini or the Stalos region again.

We loved our stay at this hotel. Staff were all very pleasant, our room was lovely with an excellent view. The Galini also has its own beach complete with beach bar, which was lovely. I would recommend this hotel to anyone in need of a nice, peaceful break. Please be aware though, that there isn't any in-house entertainment provided, so for this, a person would perhaps need to take a short stroll into the town.

The food was Always cold . Sofia is amazing .All the staff except one bartender at the pool bar were extremely friendly. He was rude.
4.0 / 10.0
Hotel was much larger than I had expected, but lovely - 4 swimming pools (plus a shared pool available with our room) to choose from and a good selection of bars.
There was some confusion with our booking/check-in and we weren't given the all-inclusive passes until we queried it the next day. I'm not sure if it was a problem of our booking through Expedia, but we paid significantly less than what we would have if we'd booked direct with the hotel. We had print outs of our booking to evidence what we'd paid for.
Had pretty rubbish weather the first 2 days, and the hotel's tiled floors are not particularly safe when wet, but glorious sunshine at the end of our stay. There are quite a few stairs, so not appropriate for those with limited mobility.
Food wise, there's good choice if you arrive for your meals on time. Don't rely on the "late breakfast" from 10-11am as it's only pastries left. Queues for dinner, but it moves fairly quickly.

Had a comfortable stay at the hotel. Was feeling quite burnt out, so not having to make any choices as I had the all-inclusive service was a blessing. The food selection on every meal was quite massive and also had a good selection of salads which was a big plus. Easy access to Chania town via bus (maybe 20-30 mins) and quite a few restaurants and little shops around the hotel area. It was a really touristy area, but luckily buses and cars take you wherever you want. The beach was lined with one hotel after another, but the water was wonderfully clear and warm. The hotel staff was friendly and overall the hotel area was neat. There was a shuttle from the reception to the beach, as the hill was quite steep. Wonderful for walking, though. The spa was nice too. Overall, a very good stay but not necessarily 5 stars. It was 4 stars would be closer to reality, but I really have no complaints. My stay was just what I needed to relax. Close to the beach, a few nice pools, good food, good access to town and had a gym. Would recommend the hotel for an easy stay.

For sure the hotel is not 5 stars, This hotel should be rated as 2.5 or 3 stars. The food is ok. For the beach you need to take a shuttle and in general the hotel has a lot of stairs so should not be recommended for old ppl.
In general i will say just ok hotel. Honestly i will try other hotel for my next visit to crete. Good point is that the day of the checkout you can use the all inclusive until you leave the hotel

The staff was so friendly and accodmodating. The room was kept clean , but we had a stain on our pillow that needed replacing, as well as on the blanket. The shower had very low water pressure, but bathrooms were kept incredibly clean. The rooms are a bit outdated as well. The pool area was awesome and enjoyable .
4.0 / 10.0
A very relaxing stay. As a solo guest, I still felt very welcome at the hotel, as the staff were very pleasant and helpful. It was more relaxing than a family-friendly hotel because it is adults only, but it still had evening entertainment to add to the atmosphere.
5.0 / 10.0
Amazing place. The hotel itself is brilliant. Lovely view directly overlooking the sea. They have a great selection of food with gluten free, local and international dishes as well as salads and fruit. For 2 nights you get to have a meal in their Chinese and Italian which are both really good and have stunning views. The staff are excellent and happy to help where possible. The rooms are a great size, nicely decorated and felt very clean. Overall, for the price I can't fault this place, a great place to relax and unwind. Only downside is the location which is about 20mins drive from more tourist related areas, although you can enjoy the local area with bars and restaurants and the beach.

I would not stay there again first we had 2 rooms 3 of us cut our legs a couple of times on the end of the bed they have a piece of metal around the leg of the bed as u go by it’s so shape u can’t help cutting your self even the cleaners also cut there legs on there too steep to go to the swimming pool there is so many steps where our room was u go down to the first floor and then u have to go down same more stairs to go to your room u have to carry your luggage down and up the stairs they didn’t have a lift direct to your floor and to go to the swimming pool from your room was the same problem .breakfast was ok nothing special l would not recommend this hotel to anyone

I had a very large room with an amazing sea view. The balcony was amazing. The shower was less than amazing. It’s needs replaced with a regular shower, not this contraption. Also it did not drain and the water was 4-5 inches deep after a shower. The fridge is very small and didn’t cool well.

Very good hotel with exceptional staff.
We stayed as a couple in a double sea view room with shared terrace and pool. Each room on the terrace is allocated two solid wood sun loungers with a fantastic view over the pool to the ocean.
We only stayed B&B so can't really comment on the AI part.
The surrounding area is very hilly with some steep inclines so not for the infirm or those with mobility issues. The hotel does provide a large golf buggy which runs back and forth all day up until 22.00pm.
Overall we really enjoyed our stay.

Wouldn't be going back here, not worth the stay. Rooms are not clean and food was mediocre, location is ok but hotel is up on a hill which you have to climb up everyday or wait for the shuttle bus to take you every time. Entertainment was good but the facilities were not and going half board shouldn't be an option if people are going to be treated that horribly.
