The Syntopia by Orion Review
The Syntopia Hotel is the perfect base from which to explore the fascinating city of Rethymnon, one of the most historical cities on this beautiful island. Heavily influenced by the Venetians, its Old Town is picturesque and features lovely tavernas and bars. This air-conditioned hotel offers an ambient atmosphere with a unique chance to face the traditional Cretan culture. It comprises 126 guest rooms and facilities on offer include a bar, a restaurant, and a children’s playground. The air-conditioned rooms are en suite and offer a private balcony. The units are equipped with a hairdryer, satellite TV, and a fridge. There is an outdoor swimming pool on the hotel grounds, complete with a poolside snack bar.

Facilities

  • Jump into an action-packed program of thrilling entertainment. Syntopia events range from ethnic music nights to live Greek bands with pop-up dancers. A few meters away, one beach bar comes highly recommended.
  • In the daytime, leisure goes beyond the beach to sports, watersports, diving, and sailing.
  • Of course, those who want to stay indoors can spend the day playing table games and bingo. And when you just want to chill, you can recline on the plush poolside beds cocooned by an incredible garden and sun terrace.

Dining

  • Whether you’re in the mood for a cool cocktail, light snack or flavorful meal, you can find something to treat your taste buds on the menu.
  • Curl up on a sun lounger with a good book and a cold cocktail. When you work up an appetite, head to our main restaurant for an appetizing array of buffet options. If you’re a big foodie, don’t miss the street food style eats from our new canteen.
  • The best part: it’s all you can eat and drink during buffet meals. Facilities are all-inclusive from 07:30–23:00, and alcoholic drinks from 10:30–23:00. Vegetarian meals are also available.
