    Good Points: All the family


    Bad Points: Not open in winter


    General comments: Was there again in September, still the best place to go for holiday & atmosphere. Respect for the staff for making it so memorable. Cheers to our Irish friends for all the laughs. Will be back next year.

    Having been to the Elen hotel 13 times now with mates, girlfriend.
    The place is fab for meeting people 9even at 47) still get chatted up, there is a famous road called the beach road which has the most amazing choice of nightlife from foam parties to r&b clubs to rave and trance and a good selection of disco pubs which are the busiest ones due to people recognising the music that is played.
    The strip is buzzing from about 11 pm to 6 am and is the best nightlife I have experienced in my travels a ...

    You couldn't ask to come to a friendlier place for your holiday, I've stayed here a couple of times but my parents have been here loads of times and love it so much have now retired in Malia and live just down the road from the Elen. They spend time at the Elen every week in season and regard the owner as a great friend. The rooms are on the basic side but the hotel in general is excellent, it has two pools with loads of loungers, a great bar area, the beach is 15 mins in one direction and the n ...

    The Elen Hotel is one of the most friendly and unassuming hotels I have ever been to. Been going here for more than 10 years, can't fault it, I love it, need I say more. Bad points non zero.

    Elen Hotel is a wonderful place to stay, went on a lads holiday with 10 of us, for two weeks in july, IDEAL LOCATION FOR YOUNGER GENERATION TO ACCESS THE NIGHTLIFE, 2 mins up the road. all food is great in the surrounding resteraunts, I would say the best places to eat are the Red Lion at the far end of the strip, The beach road house, and the steak house. Bars recomended: Yisao (RnB), Zoo (Funky House, Dance), Bar Union (mixture of everything), Malibu and banana bar. ALso the Foam party is a ri ...

    The Elen is part of Malia folklore. Rooms 19 and 12 are a personal recommendation. Also, generally around the time of August Bank Holiday weekend is a great time to visit as many friends of the Elen gather to enjoy the past and indeed future history being made. Great music is also played constantly by the great man, Mr Steven Chapman, a famous Edinburgh DJ. Also worth having a look at the penalty game opposite the Reflex bar down the strip... The owner, from history and Faliraki is a bloke calle ...

    My first impressions of the hotel was awful because the toilets are completely disgusting, it was never cleaned properly. Our bed sheets wasn't changed when we arrived at our rooms. It had lots of ants that went on the bed. Drinks are over priced. I would not recommend it for anyone to stay especially with children due to un-hygienic standards.

    Yeah OK so the Elen Hotel is dated and there isn't any air con but the people are wicked and can't do enough for you. The pool has loads of loungers, so you're never stuck for a space. Food is served all day and you are 2 minutes away from the start of the Malia strip. The hotel isn't a 5 star, yet it isn't rated as that either. If your going to Malia for a clubbing holiday then it is ideal and I would definitely return.

    I was very optimistic to see what this hotel was like. I had read reviews from this website and all were very good, so this put my mind at ease for a very short while until I had arrived. On arrival I was devastated about the lack of facilities in the rooms. To describe, the rooms had a double bed, single bed, toilet, sink, shower, a very tacky wardrobe, a 4ft in length balcony, a chest of drawers, two mirrors and 1 power socket. This applies to all rooms except for two of which didn't have balc ...

    It's a great family run hotel! We were a bit optimistic about the hotel before we went as there were no photos, but we were pleasantly surprised!

    The owners and their staff were brilliant, it was in a central location, so we had the quiet surroundings but yet it was just a stones throw away from all the clubs and bars, they were literally round the corner from the shops and restaurants!

    We had a fantastic time and will definitely be going back and I would recommend the Elen Hotel to everyo ...

    We met several people at Elen Hotel who had been there a few times and I would definitely go back as it offered excellent value for money. I don't understand how people can say towels etc were never changed - our sheets and towels were changed daily. We were also given the opportunity to have a room with a bath and shower in it until night time as our flight was not until late evening - at no extra cost!!

    You'll never be disappointed with a trip to here. I have been 10 times over the last 15 years and its always been a great trip. These are the best Greeks you'll ever meet....can't recommend it enough and whilst the hotel might only be down as a 2 star, the 5 star people make it the difference.

    The people that run the Elen Hotel in Malia are very friendly. The hotel also has good swimming pools.

    We got told we were having a kitchenette in the room, but we didn't. Sheets and towels etc were never washed in the week we were staying there.

    There were a lot of mixed reviews about the hotel before we went, so we took our chance, but we wish we hadn't now.

    Elen Hotel is a family run hotel, Nicos, Yannis, Manos and Elen are the most wonderful people, and I have been visiting the hotel for the last ten years, 2/3 times a year, along with many other guests that return year after year....
    caters for young and old, reception with pool table, TV, dining area with adjoining dining terrace, but most prefer to eat outside at the pool bar dining area, 2 pools, 1 large 1 smaller and ample well kept grass sunbed areas.
    Well stocked pool bar open from early ...
