have just returned from 2 weeks at the Maria Apartments were we found it excellent value for money although rooms small and not many cooking utensils but who wants to cook on holiday. Maria and her sons Yiannis and Nikos were very welcoming together with their young families made for a very pleasant atmosphereand the Greek night brilliant Yiannis had... more

and suddenly I found,,,,, a cell block akin to Auswich! The Guards were surly and rarely helpful (unless you bribed them by spending money across the bar!), the matriach, Maria, would greet you every day with a charming sneer if you were lucky, any problems raised ie, the first night you arrive for a two week (B&B, self catering) stay... more

I've just returned from a holiday with my teenage neice & nephew in Sissi and it was perfect! Sissi is a small, well balanced resort that maintains its Cretan atmosphere and charm whilst offering a wide selection of restaurants, bars and entertainment. Particularly good fun and value was the Mini Golf - not usually 'my thing' - which offered a... more

Got home on Wednesday from a week at Maria Apartments/Hotel, Sissi. Had a wonderful holiday and have to say that, despite some of the other reviews, we were happy with Maria Hotel. This is Greece we're talking about, and you get what you pay for (booked a week before we went, with Jet2, at a bargain price). Maria Hotel was... more

Overall the service from the family who run Maria Apartments was poor with a real unfriendliness coming across from several. The room was basic with poor facilities for a self catering apartment and no shower curtain making the bathroom look like a poor mans... more

Just back from a week's break. Sissi is a great little, quiet village and although we would both go back to the hotel and village, there are things people should be aware of. Rooms in the hotel are adequate but very small, the pictures on the website mariahotel.gr are family rooms. Also do be aware that the website only shows... more

The Sissi Maria Apartments it's the worst hotel which I've ever seen! It is located near to the street so it is very noisy because of the traffics, cascades and cocks. Even if you have a closed windows you can hear everything because of holes between the wall and frame. So if you want to get some sleep you will... more

We stayed for two weeks at Maria's (also known as Maria's apartments and Maria Hotel). We booked last minute and it was cheap so wasn't expecting much. It was sold as a three star hotel- but the room we stayed in definitely wasn't but I think their rooms vary and people who pay more get put in the main block... more
