City Center Holiday Home can be easily reached from both airports of Crete: Chania (CHQ) & Heraklion (HER).
Public bus: the cheapest and most convenient option.
Taking a bus from Heraklio airport: First you have to make your way to Heraklio Central Bus Station (Heraklio KTEL). You can do this by taking the public bus from the stop right outside the airport gates. Then you can take the bus to Rethymno Central Bus Station (KTEL of Rethymno). The cost is about 8€ per person and the duration of the trip is about 90 minutes.
Taking a bus from Chania airport: There are sometimes buses going directly from Chania Airport to Rethymno Central Bus Station (KTEL of Rethymno). Otherwise, you first have to reach the Central Bus Station of Chania (KTEL Chania) and then take the public bus to Rethymno Central Bus Station (KTEL Rethymno). Cost is about 7€ per person and the duration of the trip is about 60 minutes.
Free Public Parking: There are plenty of free public parking spaces within short walking distance to the property. We can help you locate free parking when you arrive.
Staffed Parking Lot: If you prefer, you can choose to hire a private parking spot a couple of minutes away from the property. The cost is about 10 euros per 24 hours.
Car rentals: When you land in either of Crete's airports it's easy to hire a rental car 24 hours a day. You can drive to Rethymno (about 60 minutes from Chania and 90 minutes from Heraklio) and use the car for excursions around Crete. Then, when you are ready to depart, you can drop off the car at the airport. Rental prices start from 30€ per day. Make sure to get full insurance with your car rental.
Taxi: If your flight lands late and you don't want to hire a car then taxi is the best option. Ask the taxi driver to drop you off outside Fortezza Hotel in Rethymno.
