4 star hotels in Heraklio Town

We had a wonderful stay at Olive Green Hotel! The staff were friendly, the atmosphere was relaxing, and the whole place was very well maintained. What really made our stay special was the birthday package I booked through their website. Everything was perfectly arranged — we received a lovely cake, fresh flowers, wine, and festive balloons in the room. It was such a thoughtful touch and really added...

Wonderful time there. Staff were very kind and friendly, were eager to help! Was in a great location, very near bus stop and port as well as great shops nearby such as pharamacy, restaurants and souvenirs. The food served there was really good, we had linguine pesto and smash burger.

We had a wonderful stay at Olive Green Hotel. The ambiance of the hotel was perfect. The room was nice and spacious and very clean. The restaurant on the first floor was delightful. The location is unbeatable. Blocks from the dining district, museums, and the port. We would definitely stay again.

Great location, pet friendly with super friendly staff We stayed for 3 nights with our (small) dog. The room was quite spacious and very clean. The bed also very comfortable. The staff super friendly and helpful. They were also very friendly to our dog. The location is great, very close to everything in the center. Overall, great stay, we could not have asked for more.

The hotel was super clean and the beds were very comfortable. Staff was exceptionally professional , friendly and helpful. The breakfast was delicious - a wonderful assortment of hot and cold items. Location is great- close to many things but quiet. Will definitely stay here again if I get a chance to return to Herakleon!

Lovely hotel - very comfy and quiet, located in a great and walkable part of town. Actually exceptional breakfast with traditional Cretan foods

I would say all in all I do recommend the hotel and I liked our stay. The bungalow was very new and beautiful. Although it could have been cleaner when we arrived and during our stay. We arrived with white socks and they turned brown immediately after we were in the room. So I would say the floor needs a proper cleaning. They also didn’t clean the floor or surfaces during our stay. Most of the service...

Lovely villas, quiet and well maintained. Delicious food served in the dining room beside reception. Good selection at breakfasts taffy very friendly and helpful. Plenty of sunbeds on the beach and around pool area.

Were there in June and we liked everything - food, service, rooms and etc. Food was really delicious. Staff members were very kind, generous and friendly. There are several types of restaurants and we liked all of them. Nice activities as well. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for young couples and families as well!

Fantastic hotel, very good food. Bungalows located in a palm garden where it is very peaceful. Everywhere very clean. service at the highest level. My partner got sick and the service was very helpful. We will definitely come back.

Well guess we "won" the lottery with the room/bungalow. Which felt archaic 😅 - the location was nice however - directly on the beach + you can play tennis. Minigolf course is a nightmare however 😐😆needs immediate resuscitation although at this point I am afraid only necromancy would be helpful 💀. The whole resort is closed off however with guarded entrance and parking, that's a plus point. The dinner...

Hotel on a good place close to the airport (25 min), with busy street with shops, bars and restaurants outside the hotel. Bungalows ale llaced in nice garden, close to sea. Hotel has own beach with enough seats, the same with the swimming pool. Rooms are clean and well equiped. The shower is not very comfortable, mostly with the sheet, small or no window, so it is very hot there. The meal was good...

The location is very good and convenient to go everywhere!

The hotel is in a great location in the city center, convenient for shopping and visiting museums. The sink is in the bedroom, and the bathroom contains both a toilet and shower. After showering, the entire bathroom floor was flooded. I suggest the hotel separate the shower and toilet areas with a full door.

Great location, very comfortable bed

great location near the entrance of the old town. close to the port and bus stop. room was clean with amenities provided

Parking was available 👍 The roof ventilation was very loud at the pool, so unfortunately a longer stay at the pool was not possible for me. The hotel is a bit older, the rooms could do with renovation, everything was very worn.

Nice and pretty modern rooms. Great breakfast buffet. Wifi not reliable. Some cheap parkings nearby. Busy area but not noisy. Many nice restaurant options nearby.

Nice clean hotel, polite and helpful staff  Good breakfast in the terrace with a lovely view.

We had a great stay. The staff are friendly and helpful. Breakfast is good.

The hotel has good rooms with a fantastic breakfast and decent location. We did have one major issue with a school group that ran up and down the halls all night, banging on the doors, screaming and slamming doors. We brought up this issue several times with the hotel staff and nothing was done about it. This ended up costing us a day of exploring the city because we needed to sleep when they finally...

When you want to see Crete, I think it would be a good idea to stay here. Of course, you have to take a bus from Korea to get there, but it is a satisfactory place because all buses stop at the middle of the route, and the accommodations and breakfast are all the same. Of course, the price is also very satisfactory. If I come to Crete again next time, I definitely want to stay here again.

I chose it because it was close to the airport and the price was cheap. I am satisfied with the overall facilities. The breakfast was very satisfying. In addition, the restaurant view was fantastic.

Room OK, service and breakfast good.

It was extremely noisy. Insulation is very poor and the room was directly on the round about. Traffic was dense until 1.30am.

Agapi beach resort was a dream! The staff are all incredible and friendly. Very informative and accommodating. Me and my family all had a spa day as well and Erika and the team were all amazing! Our first time in Greece and it definitely won’t be our last

This was my first experience of an all inclusive beach resort (I'm more a city break kind of person) and I think the bar has been set high for future ventures - I'm sold! This resort was amazing on every level. Beautiful beaches, plenty of space for everyone, really good and varied food/drink choices, and lots of activity options available. The staff were all friendly and attentive and the whole resort...

Agapi Beach Resort in Crete offers an exceptional vacation experience that blends luxury with the warmth of Cretan hospitality. Nestled along a beautiful stretch of coastline, the resort provides stunning views of the Mediterranean Sea, making it the perfect backdrop for a relaxing getaway. The accommodations are spacious, well-appointed, and immaculately maintained, catering to every comfort and...

Could not be more positive about Agapi Beach Resort. Firstly all the staff are so warm and welcoming, nothing is too much trouble. They work exceptionally hard and are a credit to the hotel. The hotel itself is a great property. Very clean, lovely pools and plenty of food and drink options available. The food inparticular is a very high standard. It's a great location with Heraklion around the corner...

Really beautiful hotel! The location is very good. This hotel is very big and has several swimming pools + the private beach that is wonderful!! We went there for a company trip, everybody was happy. The breakfast was very good and the rooms were really pretty and clean. The only downside is that the meeting room was not really ready: water, air conditioning, plugs for our computers but otherwise I...

What a lovely place to stay. The check-in was smooth. Even though we arrived after dinner hours, they still wanted us to go and help our selves to whatever was left. The room was great. It had recently been updated. The bed area was separated by a step up. This got a bit of getting used to. The only problem was the soap and shower fixtures. A double-sided tape was used. This weakened after having our...

Great little boutique hotel just a 5min walk away from Heraklion centre. Rooms are spacious, parking spots are available, the service is great. Staff really makes sure you are comfortable and have everything you need.

Amazing boutique hotel. Great service and very modern rooms. You can walk to Heraklion city center in about 10 minutes. Also, there is a free parking lot. The streets to get there are pretty narrow and the area around the hotel looks a bit shady at night (pretty dark alleys, abandoned houses). But in daylight you see that it is just a normal residential area.

Stayed for a couple nights and this place is great! Located within walking distance of the city center, with a lovely room with great amenities. The gentleman at the reception was extremely helpful on many occasions, even giving up his parking spot on a busy night. One thing to note though, Google maps will try to take you through impassible streets, so make sure you keep an eye out for the signs...

New hotel nestled in a fascinating area of the center just walking distance from busier shopping area. The room is well designed and has it all. Parking is very precious in this area. The staff at reception is extremely welcoming, professional and friendly. Would totally go back next time in Heraklion.

Context for rating to balance the 5 star reviews. This is not a 4-star hotel. It’s self service studios which are nicely appointed and only partially manned reception. Only stayed overnight so I could catch an early flight the next day. Checked in at 7pm, no one there. Clipboards of guests check-ins (feels like there may be privacy concerns for those filled forms sitting there) I had trouble getting...

Visited in March 2024 New, modern and absolutely gorgeous! Close to a fantastic restaurant! Staff was quick and very helpful and friendly. Room was sparkly clean with everything you could want at a great price. Stayed here 2 times while we were on Crete! Bravo!

Thank you for a nice time in your hotel. We are very pleased with the service. Special thanks 🥰 to the waiter Nikos ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. Greetings from Poland Monika, Asia and Krzysztof

Our stay at the Atlantica Akti Zeus was absolutely fantastic! The food was a real highlight – incredibly delicious and so diverse. We especially loved the abundance of fresh seafood and fish, and the desserts were divine, particularly the cheesecakes! It was such a treat to have snacks available all day at the grill snack bar, with tasty options like souvlaki, pita, gyros, and burgers. And the fresh...

Hello. Like every year, we choose a vacation. The offer of hotels in Europe is huge, as everyone knows, but despite that, we decided to return to you and use your services. Last year we were so satisfied that there is no other option for us this year. We are already looking forward to spending our vacation at the Atlantica Akti Zeus Hotel again. Therefore, on May 28-29, 2025, we are already looking...

We had an amazing stay at Atlantica Akti Zeus Hotel! The property is exceptionally clean and well-maintained, with regular housekeeping that truly stands out. The food was varied and delicious, with plenty of options for both sweet and savory dishes. The staff were incredibly friendly and always willing to help, something that is rare to find in many other countries. Their warm smiles and positive...

The standard of the hotel definitely exceeds expectations. The rooms are practically new and spacious. The service was helpful and not overbearing. Good food, beautiful green areas and a well-kept beach. I also recommend massages in the SPA zone. As for the location, a city bus leaves from right in front of the hotel, which takes you to the center of Heraklion. I recommend.

Very nice hotel with water park and close to the beach. Very helpful and friendly staff. Good quality food on the all inclusive. The snack bar was absolutely the best restaurant. Traditional Greek food. Greek salad, Tzatziki, pita, gyros, French fries. Very good and easy to access. Over all a very nice hotel with lots of facilities to enjoy your stay at.

Incredibly friendly staff, nice & modern hotel. We had great days there 🙂

Visited the Sentido Unique Blue resort with great pleasure. First and foremost the staff is extremely polite, helpful and above all good humoured. This made the stay memorable in combination with the great facilities, neat rooms and stunning vistas. What makes it stand from other all inclusive resorts is that it still feels cozy and there is no need to rush for a beach or terrace bed. I would highly...

Amazing! Nothing else to say! Hotel ***** Meal ***** Staff ***** Pool ***** Beach ***** Room ***** Location ***** I’m sad that I had to go…but I will be back :)

I'm in love with this hotel - already planning next year's stay, and we haven't even left yet. Beautiful little hotel with very nice and helpful staff - love the small pool with the seaview to enjoy a cocktail in. Swimming in the sea is the best though, even if it's very salty here. It's all very mellow and relaxing. You can hear the planes arriving at the nearby airport quite well, but they don't...

Is a jewel 💎 on the beach 🏖💦🥇

Very nice personnel, very attentive and friendly and due to the small size of the hotel almost a family feeling. Food is always fresh but may lack variety, but there is always something local next to the continental buffet. Rooms are freshly renovated and adequate. The pure sand beach is literally just falling down the stairs away. Nothing you could ask more for. Beware: as non German speaker you...

The place is exactly as shown in the pictures. It was neat, clean and very central! The support from the manager was also great. Cannot recommend it more and would most probably come again on our next visit.

Modern and traditional aesthetics balanced brilliantly. Perfect location, quiet and close to all downtown attractions. A wonderful host.

Nice staff. I stayed in the off season and got a room upgrade. The balcony of the superior room is huge and the sea is partly visible. The rooftop restaurant was closed because of the weather, it was extremely windy. It's located very close to the main attractions. The noise from the nearby airport isn't noticeable. My only complaint is that the shower is kind of open so water gets everywhere. A taxi...

Staff are so helpful. Rooms are immaculate. Nothing is too much trouble. Herbs Garden restaurant has the best staff and food is excellent. Portions are generous and the half board option has a good selection across the 3 courses offered. Breakfast offers a great choice and is served from 7 till 10.30 which suits what you are doing.

Nice boutique hotel, well located within walking distance from all amusement spots. Excellent view from the roof garden on the port and old fortress. An asset to the hotel was the friendly personnel, especially Maria at the reception. She showed professionally friendly attitude, very good smile and was ready to help with all questions. Certainly an asset to the team. Thank you for all

Great location for exploring the City Center. Lato Boutique Hotel is a short 12 minute walk from the Port of Heraklion, and only a few minutes from the City Center. A convenient bus, only a five minute walk away, will take you all the way to Knossos Palace in about 30 minutes. The hotel itself has nice views of the harbor depending on your room. The rooms are comfortable, but a bit older. There is...

Pros - bathroom was small, but shower was large and excellent water pressure - front staff was personable and helpful with dining suggestions - easy walk to main attractions - air conditioner worked well Cons - bed creaked when getting on/off, but didn't affect our sleep - elevator is a bit old fashioned, where you open the door to enter. Overall, benefits far outweighed the minor cons. Would stay...

I stayed at the annex and had no issues. I visited in the off season so prices were super cheap. The annex has no front desk so checking in is across the street at the main hotel lobby and so is breakfast. For parking, Lato has a deal with the Heraklion port so you can park at the port parking lot for free which is about a 5 minute walk from the hotel. You show your keycard to get access/entry to...

Honestly, we arrived late and because earlier ferry cancellations just ate breakfast and left. The breakfast had a large variety of good food, the staff was attentive and the rooms had simple luxury. The location is central.

Downtown stay Nice clean hotel with a great staff. Good location with tons of dining options just a block away. Parking across the street for $12 euro.

We arrived and door was locked. No one there. No check in instructions. Our room had one tiny window. No natural light. Property doesn’t communicate with guests

Typical large hotel, everything is fine. It is a good location because the subway is right next door, but it is close to Omonia station, so if you take the wrong road, you can get into trouble. I got my wallet pick-pocketed while trying to transfer at Omonia station.

Very good experience, worth recommending

Great place to stay in the middle of everything! The staff were kind, the beds super comfortable and breakfast was included. There is not parking for the hotel directly but central parking is right in front and is discounted to 8€ (2023) for hotel guests. Overall great hotel!

Nice place. However, the staff was very rude with us. We traveled with our 11 months girl and asked to kindly prepare our very own baby food, which needed to cook just 4 minutes in plain, boiling water. They refused saying that it wasn't possible. We were very frustrated, as we didn't expect such a bad treatment from a 4 stars hotel and didn't know what to do. Luckily, the restaurant nearby accepted...

We stayed at Ibis Styles for 1 night in August 2024, because due to our incoming flight being delayed we arrived late in the evening. We got upgraded to an Executive Room and all, from reception welcoming to check-out was absolutely perfect, the room was big and clean with all comforts and a quiet balcony. Breakfast is generous and includes local sweets, and there is also a supermarket on the lower...

Nice building, good sized rooms for a good price. Car park right below but costs 9 euro per day. Breakfast was standard but nice.

Excellent hotel. Rooms modern and spotless. Great shower! Got a free upgrade on arrival. Breakfast was excellent- so much choice. Staff were really helpful and made booking for us for a day trip to Spinalonga and gave us excellent restaurant recommendations. Don’t be put off by the black/dark stairwell; everything else makes up for this. And great location! Would definitely recommend a stay here.

Right in the center of the old town of Heraklion, a very comfortable and modern hotel. Convenient to everything. We had a car and the system for 'valet' parking in the garage was simple to use, 9 euro/day. Tip: pull right in to park to the "Central Parking" right next to the hotel when you arrive, just get your ticket stamped when you check in. Only negative was from time to time we smelled smoke...

At the ibis Styles hotel I booked a room for one night. The check-in was friendly and done quickly. I thought, that the room was clean and very spacious, but the bed wasn’t too comfortable for me, nevertheless I could sleep quite well. And unfortunately it was not too soundproof as you especially could hear the motorcycles from outside on the streets. Despite this I would stay here again.

Very nice location close to Heraklion. There is hop on, hop off bus for sight seeing just in front of hotel. Hotel has pool, small pool with slides, it is close to beach. Food was very good through the day, there were also snacks on top of 3 main dishes. There was great animation program even for adults including stretching, aquafitness, sports such as volleyball, water polo. You have plenty of activities...

Huge resort with hotel rooms, bungalows and multiple canteens is in my opinion ideal for families with babies and small children. Yes, the rooms are a bit dated, beds are not very comfy, but hey, you won't be inside for most of the time. The beach is clean and equiped with free beach chairs for guests, beach bar is just a few steps away. Pool is also clean and big enough for multiple groups or families...

We had 9 fantastic days in te Dessole Dolphin Bay Resort. I think the price was worth it. The animation team was excellent, the food was delicious (the snack buffet at beach taverna was the best, the children loved it). The staff was very helpful. The bungalow we got was simple, but we liked the cretan style. The cleaning service came every day and changed the towels, cleaned up the room. Every place...

The manager Pepi is over there and she do the best to have that you need treatment!!! It's so beautiful and clever nice and friendly! The Hotel she have so nice food! And so beautiful gardens with tree's flowers everywhere! We love and we come back for the spa and the hotel!!!

Abgeordneten Spas Team Manager Pepi Therapist Rania It was a nice Massage! I enyoyed it very much. The Personal was nice and professional. Also the Hotel was nice also the Hotel Staff und especially the Animators. I would go again in this Hotel and the Spa

I had a wonderful stay! The best part was how friendly and helpful the staff were—they really made me feel welcome. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. Everything was well organized and the service was excellent. Honestly, I wouldn't change a thing. I’d definitely stay here again!
