Our week at Rimondi was truly wonderful, highlighted by an enchanting ambiance and beautifully presented meals. The hotel’s charming touch and tranquil atmosphere made it a delightful retreat after strolling through Rethymno’s captivating streets. However, we did encounter a slow Wi-Fi connection at times and found the bathroom in our room a bit cramped, which may not suit everyone’s preferences.
