Pros:

Parking is an issue. The the evening stroll along the waterfront, literally across the street and a few stairs down is one of the best atmosphere spots in Crete.

Pros:

Air conditioning did work properly
Food was terrible - eggs left out so rock hard and inedible / maybe make anyone ill
Let non residents use the pool so no where to lay down etc - had to resort to a ‘bean bag’ on floor
Avoid this place - 2 star at best and over priced

Pros:

Great centrally located hotel. Friendly staff, nice room, not all the facilities were working (after peak season I think) but very convenient for Elounda’s restaurants, shops and bars. Lovely!

Pros:

Nice hotel, with comfortable rooms and generally good service. It has three main issues: the rooms are located in different blocks and reaching one block from another is complicated (insufficient signs, several lifts to take); the parking is very limited, unattended and difficult to reach due to a bumpy road; the breakfast is quite insufficient, no local products, low quality and thus inadequate for the price you pay in a 4/star hotel. A positive note: the kindness of the receptionists, particularly Sophia, who try their best to help despite these objective difficulties.

Perfect Stay for Adults
Pros:

Every member of the Orama is helpful, friendly and welcoming (especially Dora). We booked this hotel as we had a family wedding in Elounda and this hotel had a great location, the rooms are modern and clean. The pool is perfect for a dip or to hang out in with friends. I would however not recommend this pool for young families as the pool is very deep. The views for breakfast of the whole bay were amazing and we would definitely come back! Thank you!

Nice hotel but so many parts not open
Pros:

Lovely hotel but disapointed the spa wasn't open. Jacuzzi wasn't working and the rooftop bar and hotel bar weren't open. If id known before would have chosen a different hotel. Also sea view room was partial and only if you could see above the trees.

Return, yes.
Pros:

a very comfortable small hotel built over several layers and buildings

Only one night at teh end of a trip but it was very comfortable and teh pool looked nice

Well located with a very short walk to the centre of town

Reception staff v friendly. Good breakfast on a terrace with great views

Only "challenge" was finding the car park - I suggest they have a small map made for guests as google maps isn't helpful

Overall; a good place to stay i- good value and comfortable

Pros:

Das Personal ist super lieb.
Die Zimmer gehen so. Sind in einem miserabelen Zustand. Die WC Bürste verrostet und im schlechten Zustand. Türen schleifen auf dem Boden, viele Lampen funktionieren nicht oder sind defekt, die Abluft im WC lauter als der Fön meiner Frau u.s.w.
Das Frühstück ist reines convince. Der Kaffee aus Sirup und der Saft auch.
Absolut keine Empfehlung von mir.
Für einen Stopover OK aber niemals für länger.

Pros:

Our stay at Orama was a mixed bag. The hotel seemed very nice, but pictures were very misleading. Rooms were small and not clean.

We had a problem with the air conditioning in the room. It made a terrible noise and the side of the panel came loose. It also made condensation drips, which fell on to the bed.

We spoke to the receptionist about this, but he seemed baffled and offered no real solution. We ended up moving the bed, because i don’t want condensation drips on my head, or the whole cooler.

When moving the bed, we quickly noticed how dirty it was behind the bed and the stains present on the sides. It was as if somebody puked on the bed and they only changed the sheets and linnen.

We didn’t make use of the pool, so we had little to complain about except for the ridiculous opening hours. The pool opens at 10:30 and checkout is expected at 11:00. The pool also closes at 18:30.

Staff was kind and breakfast was alright. Overall, would not be coming back.

Pros:

Great property and a real value! Staff is excellent even when I made a mistake of thinking I was checking out the next day, and they found me a new room.

Breakfast was generous and rooms and views were great.

Great place!

One night was enough to never come back.
Pros:

The place was dirty, found a huge ball of long hair on top of the bed. The rooms are very tight, the space between the bed and the walls is less than 20 cm/8in.

The hotel is in a hill, lots of stairs, very uncomfortable overall.
