Return, yes.
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

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.

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.
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.

Amazing boutique hotel
We have stayed in elounda many times at different hotels. We came across the Orama which is new and it appealed because of its location to the town square and boutique status. We were not disappointed. We had a beautiful superior room in block D with a stunning panoramic view. Lots of nice touches - coffee machine, kettle, robes, slippers, beach towels etc etc. The pool area is amazing. The breakfast restaurant has lovely views also - the food is good but definitely needs to include toast! The staff were some of the best staff I have ever met in any hotel. Overall we were very pleased to have found the hotel and will definitely return.

Lovley hotel but has some flaws. Lots of steep stairs to negotiate, some without handrails and we felt the bathroom area was poorly designec wasting a lot of space and making the toilet ans shower spaces unnecessarily small.

If Frank Lloyd-Wright had designed a Premier Inn
The Orama hotel is newly openned and probably the best in downtown Elounda. Their Facebook page has pictures that well represent the look and feel of the interior and exterior design. The public areas are beautiful and the pool is truly amazing. There are still some shakedown issues, plus snagging work going on, but none of this adversely affected our 9 day stay in 3302. Book now for 2018.

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.

Très belle et grande chambre. Buffet déjeuner très ordinaire, préférable d'arriver tôt. Belle piscine mais le gym sur le toit était fermé et désuet. L'hôtel commence à manquer d'amour... mais excellent emplacement pour les restaurants près de l'eau.

Stunning seaview, but improveable room service
Super nice hotel with a stunning seaside view, good breakfast and nice facilities. Unfortunately the room service is not as good as the 4* rating of the hotel. Cleaners do not actually respect the "do not disturb" sign and insist asking at what time they can clean the room - in one case the cleaner even entered the room with us inside... apart from that episode, employees proves to be otherwise super nice and kind.

J'étais un peu anxieux de lire les mauvais avis quelques jours avant mon arrivée. Mais il n'en est rien. L'accueil par le personnel est très bien. Notre chambre était plutôt spacieuse, contrairement à ce que l'on peut lire, propre, le lit est très confortable. Le petit déjeuner est varié, et le personnel, agréable et souriant, demandait chaque jour à différentes personnes s'il souhaitait quelque chose de différent afin de répondre aux envies. Petit point négatif côté boisson, mais c'est passable. Le côté piscine est également très agréable, avec une très belle piscine et un petit coin jacuzzi, il y avait un Monsieur très sympathique et chaleureux qui s'occupait du coin restauration/snacking, avec une carte assez variée. L'hôtel est situé en plein cœur du village, où vous pourrez profiter des différents commerces et restaurants à quelques minutes à pied. Merci à tout le personnel pour ce magnifique séjour !

10 schöne Tage in einem neueröffneten Hotel mit einigen internen Anlaufschwierigkeiten, die sich aber sicher für die nächste Saison beheben lassen.
