Very good breakfast, the hot tub on the balcony was perfect, a spacious room and bathroom, large smart TV for evening relaxing. Super friendly staff, always happy to help. Rooms are modern and with many functions, it had the best A/C of all of our stays in Greece (wind was away from us and it cooled the place down quickly), fan on the ceiling, relaxing chairs outside, mini fridge, everything a person needs.

Everything in this hotel is so dreamy that I don't know where to start: the staff are so friendly and they go above and beyond to make you feel like home. The bar tender on the first floor, Sofia welcomed us with a fresh drink and lovely smile. One of the staff, Giannos, even helped us to find restaurants, historical sites and Greek food. The spa experience with Vicky and her lovely colleagues was also amazing, we enjoyed the steam room, swimming pool, jacuzzi, sauna and the massage. Oh my goodness the massage was the highlight of the trip. The breakfast is gorgeous too. The chef, Gannis is there to personalize your omelette and pancakes. He offers such great and beautiful food for breakfast that I was not even sure if this is decoration or I'm allowed to eat it. The rooms are huge, beautiful and perfectly clean and extremely equipped in a way that you'd feel you stepped into a white castle. And last but not the least, the girls in the reception, I just remember one of the names(Christina) they speak every language, they help you with nice smile. They truly made this trip memorable for us.

WOW! Where did I even start? I found this hotel at the very last minute and what a VERY pleasant surprise it was - I found a gem!!! First of all, not only the location of this hotel is fantastic but the lighting in the room is great, it has a very comfortable bed, great shower, the place brand new, very clean, very bright, perfectly working air conditioner when needed, great toiletries and other items (blow dryer, slippers, robe, etc.), well-kept and the hotel staff service is just incredible! The staff is incredibly warm, friendly, hospitable, top notch with attention to details, extremely prompt in service and always ensured that my stay was very comfortable as though I was at home! I was even greeted with a refreshing, delicious welcome drink without me even asking! The breakfast is high quality of local ingredients, offering both western and Greek dishes. This is easily my new favourite hotel in Heraklion. This hotel is just impeccable and stellar in every single way. I can’t wait to return to the city when I’m less so in a rush (only stayed there for a night - but boy what a gem I found!!), so that I can also enjoy the spa services upon my next visit! Thank you SO, so much!

Lovely accommodation in the heart of the city. Depending on the suite the shower is part of the main bedroom but this wasn't an issue for us. Rooms are tastefully done and the staff couldn't enough to help. The top floor restaurant overlooking the city is exceptional.

Extremely comfortable and well-equipped hotel in a quiet neighborhood just outside of the city center (10 min walk). Staff were very friendly, helpful and accommodating. We only stayed overnight but we could have happily stayed longer since there are excellent restaurants nearby and good cooking facilities in the room.

FAQs about hotels in Heraklio

The Cradle of Minoan Civilisation

Nowadays known as the capital of the Greek island of Crete, Heraklion was once the centre of the Minoan civilisation and the port of the ancient Knossos. This stunning gem features rich history, outdoor markets and important archaeological sites.

Just 6 km from the lively Heraklion is the world-renown ruins of the Knossos palace, where according to the Greek mythology Daedalus built a labyrinth to hold the Minotaur.

Home to the 16th-century church of Agia Ekaterini, the cathedral of St. Minas, Venetian Loggia and the Archaeological Museum, this destination is much more than just a cosmopolitan city with vibrant nightlife. Do not forget to wander around the old port or visit the Venetian Walls.

Beach lovers can discover some of the most popular places of Crete like the tourist resorts of Malia and Hersonissos, the golden beach of Amoudara and the fishing village of Agia Pelagia.

The international airport of Heraklion, Nikos Kazantzakis, is the largest one in the island and the second busiest in Greece. Situated about 4 km from the city centre, it offers seasonal flights to Vienna, Barcelona, Zurich and St. Petersburg. Booking.com offers a great variety of hotels in Heraklion.

Heraklio is the Big City on Crete.

Heraklio is the Big City on Crete. That said and while it is lovely there are more enjoyable towns and getting around is relatively easy. 4 -5 days in Heraklio was enough for us and the lure of other Cretan places was greater. Overall the Cretan people are mostly welcoming which is heartening given the numbers of tourists going there that must drive them crazy at times!

Heraklion has a lot of car and bike traffic.

Heraklion has a lot of car and bike traffic. It is like peak hour in Sydney constantly. Parking is horrendous. I would recommend staying out of Heraklion. Drive to Knossos Palace, but go early. The other attraction for us was the Archaeological Museum. Get a uber or taxi to that. The foreshore looks like they gave up on it years ago. After Chania, Heraklion was a disappointment.

Of the 3 major cities, Heraklion has the most interesting sites and museums - especially the Kotsanas Museum of Ancient Science . Rethymnon was the most relaxing and romantic. Chania was far too touristy, but the Natural History Museum is excellent with exhibits well-titled in English

The hotel and room itself were nice, clean and provided everything you need for relaxed stay. We chose this accomodation for 1 night to be able to leave comfortably for the airport after Crete holidays. As we travelled with a child, it was pleasant that the room was ready a bit sooner than expected. The rooftop swimming pool with Heraklion view is beautiful and you can enjoy your meals and drinks. Taxi service was very good and quick, too.

We love this hotel. It is so convenient for the airport, yet in a quiet area, with easy parking. This was our second stay here. We used it as a start and end point for our two-week tour all over Crete and we were more than happy to be returning for our last two nights before flying home. Everything was super comfortable, spotless and stylish, and the Batoo Cafe was excellent. We felt really cared for by all the staff. Thank you!
