As always, it's about the world's money. We have remained loyal to the Grecotel hotel chain over 10 times, and are a member of the Privilege Club (not important, it turned out that way) 11 times to the Creta Palace

Corona times are changing this world and society, but no matter where in this world it is primarily about money. Corona also overtakes the Grecotels. Some of their hotels like White
Palace and Marine Palace etc are all too in Crete, and Creta Palace is
not quite full. Due to Corona, the hygiene regulations are very well implemented. But what you expect in terms of the usual services and also get in normal times is actually a ... Especially because everything is so limited and other hotels in the group are closed, you should expect that the guest here will do their best Benefits. Far from it, under the guise of "Corona", austerity measures are being taken at the expense of the traveler despite the same price that was paid. The Sky Bar, a highlight of the hotel and a big criterion why we booked this hotel, was closed, again for the financially strong, it was opened for dinner. The cleaning of the rooms was only done every 2 days?
The hotel praises itself for environmental protection, and at the same time beach towels are provided in plastic bags, which has nothing to do with Corona, because at the pool and beach dispensing stations these are given out without a plastic bag. Important?? Food distribution by the staff works very well, but the meager distribution and selection of the dishes indicate very savings measures. You had to ask for a "surcharge" every time, which was also fulfilled but very much suggests ....... All inclusive has been a huge waste in the past, the concept is definitely better, but reduced too far to ..... and quality. Especially here you could collect "points" for the future, for your possibly returning guests. It has nothing to do with Corona if a typical Greek evening with a wood grill is missing, on which the meat and the dishes convey a typical Greek meal, instead of it, savings chips and gyros from the pan, which every restaurant Greek in Germany makes better and more. served. What about show cokking? Other hotels are much better positioned in terms of food. Again at the expense of the Greece vacation that you should arrange to make the vacation in these times an unforgettable one. Staff just great, mostly Greek, very accommodating. What can you say, Crecotel Creta Palace very good, can only be recommended, but the performance in Corona times is not okay, we are going back, but first we will observe the whole thing for ourselves. The management should change something here for the time in and after Corona. What is written here is true and should be a positive criticism.
Better late than never.
