Casa Moazzo Suites and Apartments

What a find! Casa Moazzo is in the old town - bit far away enough from any noisy bars or restaurants. Boutique hotel, all rooms and suites are individual. Very spacious, elegant, good quality bed linens and towels, and lovely toiletries. Breakfast is taken at either of the two outdoor courtyards. We arrived very late - we were greeted by Eva. Next morning we were offered recommendations of places to visit, eat, drink - all of the team’s suggestions were absolutely spot on. A lovely, lovely holiday and we were thoroughly spoilt!

Thank you so much to all the wonderful staff at Casa Moazza our stay could not have been more perfect and we feel truly looked after in every way. There is quite simply no other place to stay in Rethymno.

We had such an excellent experience at Casa Moazzo! This property is over 500 yrs old, home to a Venetian physician. It feels like a palace. We stayed in the Pegasus Suite and have never had such spacious accommodations, especially after some of the other places we stayed in Greece. A huge bedroom with closet and drawers to unpack your things, separate lounge area, gorgeous marble bathroom and a lovely terrace! The staff are so friendly and accommodating, helping with all our inquiries and requests along with preparing excellent cappuccino with a customized breakfast. They also provided excellent communication. Our ferry from Santorini was quite late, but they stayed in touch with me to know when to expect us. They gave us such a warm welcome complete with a local snack! Such a wonderful place to stay-I will never forget it! Located in Old Town Rethymno, Casa Moazzo has a great location to explore such a lovely area.

Arriving at Casa Moazzo in Rethymnon is like being welcomed by and inside a Cretan family with its traditional hospitality. And that’s the feeling we had during our whole 14 days stay in the picturesque old city of Rethymnon. We were travelling as a couple, over 70 years old, and greatly appreciated the help and useful information we got - whenever needed - from all members of the ownerfamily and their employees. Whether we asked for an additional cushion, a couch-spread, ground coffee for the machine in our junior-suite, some of the delicious honey from the breakfast-buffet to take to our room for mixing with the Cretan yoghurt we bought, a private guided tour through the city or suggestions for the best bus-trips to memorable locations near Rethymnon or further away. Without all the advice and help we got in this absolutely cosy and comfortable little hotel we could never have had such a wealth of impressions and truly great experiances to bring home from our first trip ever to Crete. It was a rare lucky stroke, that we booked Casa Moazzo for this journey. Thus from the beginning we felt like being immersed in this great history and culture, that is the hallmark of Crete. Staying in Casa Moazzo means experiencing the athmosphere of an historic building right in the middle of the world-famous old city of Rethymnon, while enjoying the comforts of well and modernly equipped rooms and apartments, each with its own flair. We had an ancient well (covered up) in our kitchen, for instance. You can read and enjoy a glass of wine in one of the quiet courtyards of the hotel with many fragrant plants, forgetting the time except for the bells of the nearby cathedral, stroll to one of the dozens of nearby taverns or discover original small shops and get to know traditional craftsmen. From the nearby bus-station you can travel to the other Cretan cities like Chania, Iraklion and Agios Nikolaos, visit the south coast, one of the many spectacular gorges, discover original mountain villages and time-honoured monasteries. What you don’t get in Casa Moazzo is a spectacular view from your room, nor a swimming pool or fitness-room or bar. What you DO get is the best imaginable service, a familiar athmosphere and the feeling of welcome by your hosts, and the experience of living in a centuries old mansion right in the middle of all that is happening and can be seen, smelled, heard and felt in this thousends of years old Cretan city and harbour. You really can get hooked on this incomparable and unique experience. Highly recommended!!!

This has to be one of the loveliest, most friendly hotels we have ever stayed in. Beautiful location in the old town, near the Cathedral, 2 minutes walk from the drop off point. Very peaceful. The rooms are beautifully furnished, very comfortable and immaculate, ours had a little balcony overlooking one of the 2 little courtyards. Tea, coffee (filter and an espresso machine), full size fridge, safe and of course fully air conditioned. Everything you want or need was a very short walk around the narrow streets. The breakfast is a buffet style with local, traditional produce, yoghurts, mueslis honey, breads, meats, cheeses, little cake things which were amazing, filled pastries fresh fruit and they will cook you eggs to order. Nothing seems too much trouble for the staff. We would gladly return to this hotel. It’s truly amazing.

I can’t say enough about the hospitality and beauty affixed by this boutique hotel. The entire team is there to make you feel like you stepped into their home and have become a valued guest by their family. It’s a stunning combination of ancient and modern, the breakfasts are incredible in the outdoor courtyards and the owner, Anna, is truly meant to be a welcoming ambassador to her charming town of Rethymno as well as fir Crete. We followed her recommendations and are not disappointed. Highly recommend if you want to feel part of the vibrant culture and tradition of Crete for a few days. And recommend Rethymno over Chania, which gets much more press but is less charming (although the port/harbor area is amazing).

My husband, son and I stayed at Casa Moazza for 5 nights. As soon as we arrived we were greeted with smiles and a team who you could tell genuinely cared about our experience. We were sat down, provided with refreshments and were guided with information about the town. This was a really unique and nice experience. The staff were extremely accommodating and went above and beyond to make our time there amazing. Travelling with a 15 month old can be difficult but the team at Casa Moazza made it so much easier. The team would see us at breakfast and immediately bring us a high chair. We didn’t even have to ask. The hotel is absolutely stunning. The room was beautiful, clean and had been set up and ready to go with a portacot for our son. We would definitely recommend Casa Moazza to all our family and friends. Thank you so much to the wonderful team. You certainly are all ab asset to this stunning hotel and we hope to see again in the future! Tia, Ari and little Theodori 😊

Absolutely loved my stay at this amazing place!!The picturesque location, right in the center of Rethimnon made for a perfect getaway. The staff was incredibly attentive and friendly, always going the extra mile to ensure our comfort. The rooms were spacious, clean, and exquisitely decorated. The breakfast options were exceptional, with a variety of delicious dishes that catered to all tastes. Overall, a fantastic destination for a memorable summer retreat.

- Very comfortable, clean, and homely feel, reflected in everything from the room equipment (with super comfortable beds and showers), to the overall decor and beautiful garden - Incredibly kind and helpful staff, always ready to give a recommendation or a smile - Lady Ana and her team really make everyone feel welcome and at home - Excellent location, on a quiet street right at the edge of the old town, 2-3 minutes away from a reasonably priced paid parking where it is easy to find a spot and 15 minutes on foot from Rethymno beach - Many little extras that make the experience complete, e.g., provided beach towels, very comfortable bath robes, option to have breakfast prepared in advance for an early morning leave, etc. - Breakfast is very tasty and with a local spin, but the options are relatively few and do not change across days - could become a bit repetitive during a longer stay
