I really wonder if the customer really stayed at Lyda Club Hotel, seeing as it is located on a field right besides the street while, he mentions cliffs and dangerous routes to the beach. The beach is a ten minute walk from our hotel on a perfect flat terrain. Also a bus station is a five minute walk from our... More

Me and my boyfriend returned home on the 23rd October after a lovely relaxing week at Club Lyda Hotel. Its a beautiful hotel, very Greek. The room was lovely, however I think the shower needed updating. If you wanted air-con you had to pay additional charges but because we went in October the nights were cool so we just left... More

I had an amazing holiday, depsite the hotel being a dissapointment. This hotel and grounds look lovely from the outside. Very Greek, however the rooms and furniture are very worn and dated. The hotel overall is more 2-3 star, not 4. Beds were very uncomfortable. I went and bought cleaning equipment as I found the kitchen area and bathroom weren't... More

Don't normally write reviews, but have just come back from a great holiday in gouves, Crete. Had some concern when reading reviews, but have to say all the negative comments are in my opinion unfounded! The staff were great, friendly and always happy to help, the rooms and facilities were exactly as described in sales literature. A holiday at this... More

Just returned from a week here. A lovely relaxing holiday. The staff always had a smile and were there to assist with any need especially George and Maria.

Some of the bar staff seemed a little rude though but they do work very hard. The food was okay with some lovely tasting mash potato but chips and pasta... More
