Leptos Panorama Hotel - Kato Daratso

I had high hopes for this place, but the rooms were positively outdated and, woudl ve been better insulated. So much noise! Encountering wild cats in the restaurant was not quite the exotic experience I expected. A simple room upgrade for my troubles would have made a world of difference. I almost thought of giving a good review but just couldn't.

Good quality hotel, lovely view, decent service, good room and bathroom. Hotel food was good for a buffet. Convenient for getting to beaches and into Chania, which is a lovely town.

Twin beds rather than double (with separate covers) - not a big deal but a bit inconvenient even when pushed together. Also, we were staying near end of season so some things were winding down (like restaurant opening times). But very good overall.

The room was kept very clean by our cleaner and available in the executive area with gorgeous views...

Fine Views and Friendly Service

The amazing views from our room were lovely, especially during sunsets. The buffet offered a fantastic variety, with delicious traditional options that kept our meals exciting, especially the Cretan themed nights. The pool area was lovely and was great. The nightly entertainment could use some improvement. More engaging activities would really enhance the overall experience.

Free upgrade to executive floor - amazing semiprivate pool!!

Little flexibility with timetables - hot food not served in the pool at 4:03 pm when the official time finished at 4:00 pm

Fine views and cozy atmosphere

The outdoor dining area was perfect for enjoying our meals while taking in the fine sunsets. The food offerings were diverse and delicious, with something for everybody. The location made it a bit challenging to explore nearby areas without a vehicle.

Well-maintained and ideal hotel in every way with efficient staff on the reception desk. Carpeted and neat rooms with gates. A wide array of fresh breakfast options. Magnificent location to Balos beach.

Beds were very firm.

Breackfast was acceptable.

Awful hotel,the bed was the most uncomfortable I have ever slept in, we got no sleep the whole night and we were refused a refund even thoiugh we did not stay the second night. The hotel is not a five star maybe a two star at most.

The Scenery fron the hotel was wonderful. having breakfast, near the pool was lovely, the pool was great, the rooms comfortable, and the bus into the old town started at the hotel gate No 23.

Trying to walk up the very steep entrance way after a night of drinking the local whine

The panorama hotel offers fine sea views and excellent housekeeping. The buffet was varied, with different themes each night, made dining enjoyable.

some staff lacked enthusiasm.

Very good pool, comfortable lounge and pleasant restaurant areas.

The beds are too hard.

We booked queen room with amazing views, a pleasant balcony, as example. The breakfast available was fresh with an omelette.

The panorama had an excellent location with fine views, especially at sunset. It's just a quick 20-minute bus ride to chania's center. We loved the breakfast selection at the outdoor restaurant, and the free wi-fi was a nice bonus for our family time.

totally recommend

Exceptionally comfortable and great place with very good staff on the reception desk. Delightful queen room in the executive area with gorgeous views. The pool area is amazing too❤

Would recommend for a fleeting moment

Friendly staff, comfortable room, with helpful amenities like free Wi-Fi and a lovely seasonal outdoor pool that was perfect.
