"Very convenient hotel to stay following a late arrival at Heraklion airport. Rooms were very good, air conditioning very effective, good soundproofing for aircraft takeoff/landing., breakfast was very good.
Recommended for short stay (couple of nights) having just arrived. "
"Nice heritage village, which we explored during our stay. The view from the restaurant was fantastic and the breakfast delicious. Room had basic facilities."
"the hotel and facilities are great but i wouldnt describe the area exactly as tourist friendly. If you have your own transportation its a great location as it isnt far from the airport"
"A lovely traditional house in a typical Cretan village away from the tourist hotspots. Our host spoke good English and was very welcoming and helpful. The bakery sells wonderful trays of Baklava which we enjoyed on our spacious roof terrace, a great place for breakfast too. "

Great shopping and food options plus all the museums and the famous palace Knossos. Parking and narrow streets make driving challenging

A major town/city with lots of restaurants and bars. Understandably at Christmas a lot was shut, but only for a day or two. A lot of extremely good coffee bars for brunch/lunch and it's easy to get to the resorts of the western end of Crete.

Generally prices are reasonable compared with expensive Mykonos and Santrini. There are a lot of choice for restaurants. I found the quality of Greek food improved substantially during the last couple of decades.

It lacks historic buildings etc but since I have been coming for 56 years occasionally, it must have something! Really good value eating, too.

We enjoyed our stay in Heraklion and would have loved to have spent more time there.
"Right across from the port so east access when getting off the ferry. Very clean and nice- great staff. Easy to walk to restaurants and many tours will pick up from the location. "
"Really great hotel in the heart of Heraklion. Very convenient to the port and the airport. Staff was very nice and went over and above; we were leaving before breakfast so they made breakfast bags for us and sent us on our way. Highly recommend. "
"We were a family of five in three rooms for two nights. We all really enjoyed this hotel. Nice roof bar and pool, where we spent a lot of time. Very comfortable rooms. Excellent breakfast. And a great location, across the street from thecArchaeologic"
"Fantastic property and friendly staff. We had paid the half board with breakfasts and dinners. The food was beyond expectations. It was fresh and delicious. Thank you!"
